The Cleveland Browns were labeled one of the most exciting teams in the NFL before the regular season kicked off, and with an influx of offensive talent, many analysts were expecting the Browns to make a potential playoff run in 2019. Instead, the Cleveland offense is an absolute mess, Baker Mayfield has regressed tremendously, and new coach Freddie Kitchens may be on the verge of losing his job.
The Browns entered Week 15 with extremely slim playoff hopes, but Cleveland fell behind early in Arizona and allowed 38 points in a loss to the Cardinals to fall to 6-8 on the season. After the game, Browns running back Kareem Hunt told Cleveland.com that he felt some of his teammates weren’t giving “110 percent” on the field.
On Tuesday, an exasperated Mike Greenberg advised everyone in the Browns locker room to just shut up for the rest of the season.
“This guy’s been on the Browns for like eight minutes, and a team that started with watches, ‘what watch are we wearing?’ And then it went to this, and then it went to that, and now Kareem Hunt is saying ‘you know, I feel like some of the guys weren’t giving 100 [percent.’ This team needs to just shut up! I mean, stop talking for crying out loud. They need an edict in the locker room. The next person who says a word, the kangaroo court is going to fine them whatever the maximum possible is….. This team needs to shut up.”
