This documentary details the Cleveland Brown's return since 1999 before the 2012 draft including a carousel of head coaches, history of drafting and many more...
Tim Couch was not as bad as he got credit for. He got DESTROYED and still put out some good performances. If he would have went to almost anywhere else he probably would've had a pretty solid career.
And the Browns fans had the balls to boo him? He took them to the playoffs! And despite what many people say about him, he’s probably the only good or decent quarterback in their revival area. The Browns offensive line was the problem. If Tim played for a real team, probably would’ve succeeded.
I love the part with the Butch Davis press conference where he talks about the things his players are “capable of doing” and then it goes right to the clip of a game and the announcer goes “loss of 3 on the play.” That was a nice little touch LOL 🤣🤣🤣😢😢😂😂
It was actually pulled due to "NFL copyright" issues.. in other words, it made people at the Browns organization unhappy. This is the video's third stint on youtube.
2013: Another terrible year, fired Chud after one year. 2014: Hired Mike Petine as head coach, installed a new front office. Browns start off 7-4 with Hoyer at QB and in typical Browns fashion loose 5 straight to finish 7-9. 2015: Browns then regressed to 3-13, fire Petine and front office and rebuild once again. Manziel is realized as a drunk douche and is dumped 2016: Hue Jackson is hired and were a Chargers missed field goal of going perfect 0-16 and the team hired new front office staff AGAIN. Jesus it's rough being a Browns fan but maybe one day they might do something hopefully I'll be alive to see it??
ryan mccormack Ravens fan from Baltimore I really feel bad for y'all I hope y'all get it together one day lol but at least you can say you had a little hand in our super bowls yay?!
Mike M. And holding onto josh Gordon after he clearly showed hes not going to change like manziel.and as the video shows dissapointing drsft picks.add manziel to that as well.
True. I am not a Browns fan at all, but my heart goes out to the fans. They suffer long and hard. I remember the days the Saints used to look hopeless like this...If there is a team I would love to see get some success, it's the Browns. You guys deserve better than this, you truly do.
Jamir Miller tearing his Achilles Tendon literally impacted the Browns entire defense. He was the only player that had the ability to generate double digit sacks and be a legitimate disrupter consistently until Myles Garrett was drafted. Even though the Browns made the playoffs that year, with him they easily go 11-5. He would’ve had at least 13-15 sacks. Then Butch Davis the GM is inserted and makes questionable decisions again and again. Tim Couch was not that bad but man what could’ve been from at least 2002-2010 with competence in the front office. Hopefully this season it turns around.
Nope. It's karma. Go back and look at how he handled his free agency and you will see that he put out ridiculously selfish and dishonest vibes. And on the FIRST rep in training camp his career ended. Karma.
I would watch for the QB fax machine montage. They failed to get a QB that wasn't any good to begin with because of a fax machine issue. To me, that's the most Browns-y thing to happen to them in five years.
Time to update this: December 29 2013: Rob Chudzinski was fired after only one 4-12 season. January 23, 2014: Mike Pettine was hired as head coach. February 11 2014: GM Mike Lombardi was fired and CEO Joe Banner resigns. Ray Farmer was selected as the new GM. The Browns lost the five games of the 2014 season after a 7-4 start. Johnny Manziel was drafted with the 22nd overall pick in the draft but did not make his first career start until week 15, a 30-0 loss to the Cincinatti Bengals. In the 2015 offseason, WR Josh Morgan was suspended the entire season for failing a drug test. Manziel entered a rehab facility. GM Ray Farmer was suspended for the first four games of the season for sending text messages to coaches during games. The Browns finished the 2015 season with a 3-13 record and Pettine and Farmer were fired. The Browns hired Hue Jackson as head coach and Sashi Brown was named GM. The Browns traded the 2nd overall pick to the Philadelphia Eagles, who selected Carson Wentz. The Browns finished 1-15, losing 14 consecutive games and defeating the Chargers after a missed last second field goal. The Browns had the 1st pick in the 2017 draft and picked Myles Garrett, who did not make his debut until week 5. The Browns also had the 12th pick in the draft but traded it to the Houston Texans who drafted Deshaun Watson. Despite winning all four preseasons games, the Browns are currently 0-5 and did not hold a lead in the first four games.
@@mach6893 I know it’s late but that’s inspite of his being through the organization. It’s really shameful how there was no cohesion in Cleveland really until the smartest man Andrew Berry took over. His move of DeShone Watson tho is his biggest stain to his record unbelievable isn’t it
There is no way a team can be rebuilding since 1999. The simple truth: nobody wants to play for the Browns and here's why. The colors, the logo, the name of the franchise. The fact that they've sucked so bad for so long, it's also psychological.
hussein335 Totally agree on the psychological side. “Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit.” - Vince Lombardi “There’s one thing about quitters you have to guard against - they are contagious.” - Paul 'Bear' Bryant
The thing about Bottlegate, which this video showed poorly, was that the Browns ran another play AFTER the questionable catch. Then the refs called for a replay review. This video seemed to show the Browns fans throwing bottles just for the refs calling for a replay, but that's not true.
Yeah. It starts in this video at 3:23. Although trash should never be thrown onto a field, I at least can understand the immense frustration in the crowd. The Browns ran another play after the questionable catch, then the refs call for a replay. Due to the bottles they ended the game with time left on the clock, all without an explanation
I genuinely believe that Tim Couch got a raw deal in Cleveland. Not saying he would have been a Hall of Famer elsewhere, but he was doomed the second his name was announced on draft day.
KMC, I'm sorry but that's just plain and simple not true. If you Are actually a solid quarter back in this league you will do better than Tim couch did ni matter what team your on
@@bobbygorbett536 I dunno about that. Talent is a raw material and in the right hands, it can be molded into something incredible. But it can also be marred and scuffed up beyond recall. Brett Farve has a bust in Canton, largely because he was shipped to Green Bay and guided by Mike Holmgren. If he stays in Atlanta, he's a footnote in the league's history - a guy whose first (and perhaps only) NFL pass is a pick 6. Couch had the unenviable task of being a rookie QB on an expansion club - something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.
That franchise isn't going to go anywhere if it can't keep its personnel for more than a year or two. No team gets anywhere when the guys running it are always so afraid of making mistakes that they can't take risks.
What you can take away from this video is that any player the Browns sign with some buzz or a hometown link will have a career-ending injury, contract a staph infection, and never play another down in the NFL just when things start looking good for them
I've been hoping someone would post this again. But as I watch it four years later, every clip of every tragic and embarrassing incident, I'm realizing that we're worse off now more than ever!! If you're the creator, it would be amazing if you updated this!! It would run an hour!!!
Quick Update to this video: 2013, Rob Chudzinski named head coach. Team goes 4-12 2014: Mike Pettine named head coach, Ray Farmer GM. Team drafts 2 major busts in the first round; Johnny Manziel and Justin Gilbert. Josh Gordon gets suspended for substance abuse. Team goes 7-9. 2015: Sashi Brown and DePodesta named into front office. Team indefinitely suspends offensive line coach Andy Moeller. After starting 2-3 they lose 10 out of their last 11 games ending their season at 3-13. Mike Pettine is fired 2016: 1-15 record under new head coach Hue Jackson. Browns sign RGIII as QB who gets injured in regular season(again) and most likely puts an end to his career. Only win came vs chargers 20-17. 2017: Team starting 0-7. Still no franchise QB and it looks like Hue Jackson could lose his job by the end of this season.
It's funny that there were only 18 starting QBs in the end credits for this video. Ten years later, and that number has now doubled to a total of 36, with DTR and PJ Walker each starting one game so far this season (as of Week 6). 36 different guys started at QB in a span of just 25 seasons (and counting). Walker's name has gotta be dragging on the floor unless the person wearing the infamous QB jersey is 7+ feet tall lol
Carson Wentz wouldn't be as highly regarded if he got drafted by the Browns. The Browns offensive line has always been abysmal. He would be rushed or sacked on every play. Even Dan Marino would suck if he played for the Browns.
Thank you for reuploading this, I have been trying to find this for months. It was used in a Five Thirty Eight article a while back. Thank you again, greatly appreciate it!
In defense of the so called "bottlegate..." They went back and reviewed a play after another play had been run. Unheard of. That's what set off the fans that day, and rightly so!
Romeo crennel was right about one thing the browns a lot of the time both don’t hire the right guys but they also give up on guys and start over way too quickly
The person produced this video must be a Steelers or Ravens fan! That Steelers fan said he was glad the Browns were back for two free wins was glorious 😂
Marie Pavlov I believe that you're referring to the Patriots after their 46-10 loss to the Bears in Super Bowl XX in which they practically never really recovered
Stew Watkins Maybe Cleveland does not have a Mr. Clean or a Mrs. Lysol. Maybe it's time the city did. Germs are probably the worst kind of thing to happen to the Browns besides the other teams in the NFL.
Every single person in a Cleveland Browns press conference looks terrified and they’re just dreading having to answer more embarrassing questions next week. This franchise is horribly cursed. This is an uncanny level of failure for the modern parity league.
It's hard to believe it now but the Cleveland Browns were once one of the NFL's most successful teams. They remain the only team to win an NFL title in their first season with the league (not counting the very first NFL season). They joined the league in 1950 when the NFL merged with the old All-American Football League in 1950 (which is also when the San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore - now Indianapolis - Colts joined the NFL). In the short life of the AAFL, Cleveland won every single championship game. Sadly, they have since degenerated into perhaps the team with the worst record in the NFL. Their last championship was in 1964 (though Detroit and Philadelphia have longer championship droughts) and are one of only four current teams never to have played in a Super Bowl up to now. Hard to believe that Jim Brown once played for this team.
This video needs to be updated. Starting from the Mike Pettine hiring and the Manziel hype in 2014 through the Hue Jackson years the 0-16 2017 season with the parade and then the john Dorsey GM hiring, Baker Mayfield Hue getting fired and the second half of the 2018 season where Greg Williams Freddie Kitchens and Baker go 5-3 to finish 7-8-1. Kitchens given the Head Coaching job. Finally concluding the video The 2018-19 offseason player acquisitions including the trade for Odell Beckham Jr.
2017 : 0-8 so far. My general thought of this? Cleveland should never be closed up in 1995, even when moved to Baltimore, some group of ppl should bought it , hold Belichick and his band of slappies on the job. You will have then Patriots like Dynasty. Its not the Brady the creator of NE. Its Belichick. Its his game plan which is succesfull for over 25 years now. Its his eye for talent and guts to hold them and train them to make his will. Thats why he has 7 rings. And like I always said, Its not Tom Brady wins those championships, its Belichick's defense. for NY Giants with Lawrence Taylor, first three NE with Teddy Bruschi, Rodney Harrison, Lawyer Milloy, Mike Vrabel, Willie McGinest. After them gone, NE always stop at some point, loosing to another great defensively set up team NYGiants. The last two was on back of Vince Willfork, Rob Ninkowich, Darelle Revis, with nail to the coffin by Malcolm Butler. Defence wins championships, hell yeah.
Yes, I hate to hear that Couch was a bust. It took him a few seasons to learn the NFL game. By the time he understood the game, he was so beat up that he couldn't execute. That's because he was fed to the wolves in those early seasons.
I felt for Tim Couch, he was a good QB who got no help whatsoever, just thrown to the wolves like prey, its clear that management are fucking clueless and grossly unprofessional. Shame really, I think the Browns need a complete overhaul, Name, Brand, Jerseys, Colours, Personnel, they have been half assing it for far too long now.
They went 10-6 in 2007, but still failed to make the playoffs (they lost the AFC North to the Pittsburgh Steelers, whom they were 0-2 against that year, and they lost another tiebreaker to the Tennessee Titans).
