He doesn't look like himself at all. He is not running down plays. He was slow to get up a few times, and I'm wondering if he is injured and is just trying to play through it.
JPP is a stud but he got worked over pretty good by Browns All-Pro OLT Joe Thomas.The rookie RT is Mitchell Schwartz and he's quickly gotten up to speed but he was getting help with JPP on the plays where Piere Paul looked, uh, kinda rough to be kind. Basically the Browns edges are 'stacked' with Joe Thomas and Mitchell Schwartz and JPP and Osi and Tuck had a tough matchup. Weeden didn't get sacked once and he had a ton of attempted passes so give credit where its due and that is to the Browns offensive tackles, they simply had a very good game against very good opponents and they are both good players.I would like to hear from Jene on this. Early on JPP was causing havoc, and drawing extra blockers--just not doing much in the stat column. Today, I saw him dominated by an unheralded rookie RT who was not receiving any help...the fact that Cleveland was wiling to single block him with a rookie speaks to my initial point in this thread...something has changed with JPP (and its not scheme or being double or triple blocked). I really hope he is trying to mask an injury.
Agreed, but JPP didn't even have a single hurry. I'm not shocked he was held without a sack, but to be held without a hurry is kind of crazy. At least, coming into the season JPP was viewed as matchup proof, perhaps now the reality is that he is not. He still played a high percentage of snaps, so I don't think this is an injury. Something to keep an eye on for sure though.JPP is a stud but he got worked over pretty good by Browns All-Pro OLT Joe Thomas.The rookie RT is Mitchell Schwartz and he's quickly gotten up to speed but he was getting help with JPP on the plays where Piere Paul looked, uh, kinda rough to be kind.

I believe Cameron wake still has more hits and hurries than jj. it just started breaking through in the box score last weekI'm not sure how constructive this observation is, but other than JJ Watt I don't think there's any other DEs right now that are putting up great or consistent numbers. The position seems to be a black hole this season.
Agree. I started him over Peppers.Unreal
Definitely not JPP. When you can go an entire season and put up mediocre stats for most of it, I don't want you. Watt had to have set a record for pts for a DL this season.Dynasty....who's the #1 DE in the offseason? Watt or JPP
