Shortly after the Browns lost to the Denver Broncos on Sunday, Cleveland safety Jermaine Whitehead went on a profane Twitter rant that included racist language and death threats. The tweets were.

© George Walker IV / Tennessean.com via Imagn Content Services, LLC The Titans (8-4) will go back to the drawing board after this Week 13 loss. The good news is that Tennessee will hold onto first place in the AFC South despite the Indianapolis Colts (8-4) winning their game thanks to the divisional record tiebreaker. In Week 14, the Titans will travel to Jacksonville to take on the Jaguars in what is a great bounce-back spot — that is, if the Titans don't have a letdown game.
Sunday’s matchup against the Tennessee Titans was seen by many as a chance for the Cleveland Browns to prove they were legit, and they did just that, downing the Titans 41-35 in Nissan Stadium on Sunday.
It was plenty dismal for the Titans, who walked into the locker room at halftime trailing 38-7 to a team they were expected to at least keep it close with.
The Titans found a burst of life in the third quarter, but that rush didn’t last, as Tennessee couldn’t get things going enough to successfully pull off what would have been a legendary comeback.
The Titans did gain some dignity, putting up 28 points on the board and holding the Browns to a mere field goal in the final two-quarters of action.
If the Titans had even come close to replicating that type of performance in the first half, the final score could have looked much different, and we might have had a different winning team when the clock hit zero.
Here’s a look at what Twitter had to say about the game and the ultimate outcome.
Baker Mayfield woke up feeling dangerous: 17/21, 252 yards, 4 TDs, 0 INTs in the first half. #Titans have no pass rush.

When the #Titans lose, it’s never “man, that other team played really well.” It’s always because the Titans completely blow it.

— Dashawn Hendricks (@DashawnHendrick) December 6, 2020Honestly today's lose was bad but I still feel optimistic. The old #Titans would've folded and not fought back. Our team is GOOD and could possibly be great. We are still 1st in the #AFCSOUTH we have a get right game next week and the chance to go 9-4. We get Jonny and Fulton
— ❄️BIG BEEZY❄️ (@otfbeezy) December 6, 2020This #Browns team is for real and could possibly be a dark horse in the playoffs (if they make it). The defense is the main weakness, but they’re winning games by running the ball and having Baker be a game manager. #TENvsCLE

I just want to congratulate the @Browns on winning a decisive and hard-fought victory against a seasoned team of NFL professionals, and also the Tennessee Titans.#CLEvsTEN
