Pat Shurmur didn’t have a good day with the press yesterday. His press conference went one question longer than his accusation that a media member rolled their eyes at one of his answers. The Browns aren’t the funniest punchline in the NFL right this second, but they’ve been selling tickets in this comedy club for pretty much longer than anyone else in the league.

Holmgrens Mistake?

The only problem is Greg Little doesn’t...
