Cleveland is pulling all the stops out for some added motivation.

The Browns were in the midst of their 28-point first quarter outburst to set an NFL playoff record.

A Chiefs fan replied to Watkins “Looks like we got some comp next week’'

To which Watkins responded, “I wouldn’t go that far lol….!”

Watkins must not have gotten the memo that Smith-Schuster riled up the Browns with his “Browns is the Browns” remark, which will forever be part of this playoff run.

When asked last week if the there’s a new vibe about the Browns, Smith-Schuster said, “Naw, I think they’re still the same Browns that I’ve played every year. I think they’re nameless gray faces. They have a couple of good players on their team. But at the end of the day … the Browns is the Browns. It’s AFC North football. They’re a good team. I’m just happy we’re playing them again.”

Baker Mayfield posted “Browns is the Browns” on his Instagram 4 1/2 hours before the game, and the Browns admitted afterwards that the remarks got them fired up.

“Any talk like that is going to be disrespectful to anybody on any team,’' Garrett said after the game. “We definitely did not appreciate it. I think we made that known tonight with our performance. We just have to carry on with this momentum we have getting this big win in their house. I think we have what it takes to keep it going.”

Mayfield shouted “Browns is the Browns” on his way into the locker room after the game, and Jarvis Landry performed Smith-Schuster’s trademark TikTok “Corvette Corvette” dance in the locker room. Even Nick Chubb admitted to NFL Network “it had all of us fired up.”

It didn’t, however, stop Steelers receiver Chase Claypool from throwing shade at the Browns the next day.

In a TikTok live, Claypool said “It’s a bad loss, but the Browns are going to get clapped next week, so it’s all good.’'

The “Count Us Out” Browns are going to be loaded for bear again on Sunday.
