[Schmeabs]

Who or what is a Brosmer?

Hopefully a spark for the Browns defense

 

[Donnybrook]

All Ford on this drive. What happen to Judkins?

2 minute

Not a fan of Stefanski. Leaving his best player on the sideline IMO.

@General Malaise

-Despite Gabriel Smurf at the start and his challenge just getting the ball past the LOS, you can't help but notice he has a quick release and more mobility behind the OL
He doesn't look like he has a strong arm but he does have a lively arm, that quick release could be useful on the shorter passing routes in the 10-15-20 range but we've seen some poor throws
At least 2 balls batted down at the LOS but I will say there is a leadership element here, he looked nervous early as expected but he looked in control on the last drive and I'm interested in how this game is going to finish, at some point the Browns need to take a couple shots to loosen 'em up and then bust Judkins on a draw or delay

2nd Half to come

I don’t disagree. I just think that’s who they play in 2 minute.
That long td run called back is going to haunt me all day :(

Doesn’t look like they needed that if we’re keeping it 100.

 

[amnesiac]

2nd ball batted down at the LOS I've seen

yep I’ve been watching this as well.

was this the one that went straight up in the air?

one of those tips is going to end up as an INT.

 

[karl.Racki]

Desmond Ridder time

Max Brosmer time

Thought they had Ridder?

 

[Ministry of Pain]

TE PPR 1.5-2
Fannin with 13-15 already
4 catches in the 1st half, looks like Gabriel is gonan find this guy

 

[ghostguy123]

London being treated to some high level football here.

His arm was hit while throwing on the one that went straight up

What did Judkins do wrong to get shelved for the last half of the 2nd Qtr?

 

[travdogg]

What did Judkins do wrong to get shelved for the last half of the 2nd Qtr?

He didn't. He's not their hurry up back of choice, which makes perfect sense, as he's a rookie who missed camp, and both their other RBs excel as pass catchers.

ETA: Probably gonna get a big 2nd half workload.

 

[travdogg]

Feel pretty comfortable saying JJ McCarthy will be starting as soon as he's healthy.

ETA: Not that here was ever really doubt

 

[Alex P Keaton]

Desmond Ridder time

Max Brosmer time

Thought they had Ridder?

As noted previously in a reply to you, the announcers said that the Vikes cut Ridder

 

[MAC_32]

Bond five targets and one catch, drops or off target?

Contested non-catches, but I only remember 4. Maybe one of the batted balls counted as the 5th.

I think that was clear even before Wentz got hurt.

 

[Crash Davis]

What did Judkins do wrong to get shelved for the last half of the 2nd Qtr?

It was very curious. Even putting aside my bias as a Judkins owner, he is the best weapon they have. He was having success and then they simply stopped using him, they were barely even using him for play action and then he wasn't even in the game. Odd.

 

[MAC_32]

He's only been on the team for 3 weeks.

Wentz warming up

Totally agree. Plus you have a rookie QB in his first NFL start. Every coach in the league would take the veteran presence who is also a pass catching back.

I never expected Judkins to be as involved as he has been in the receiving game this early in the season. He needs both practice reps and game reps before the coaches will trust him more. But as the season goes along he may start earning those 2-minute drives.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

He’s back! Savior of the Vikings, Carson Wentz!

 

[efactor]

That Jefferson guy is quite good

This is not what happened. He got the 56 yarder called back then the drive quickly went backwards. Next 2 drives were 3 and outs - first stalled due to a bad RPO read from Gabriel, second gave Judkins a 1st down carry but then the next play was a sack forcing 3rd and long.

He's not the 2 minute RB so that was that. Expect to see plenty of him this quarter.

 

[Donnybrook]

Jefferson could have got a personal for flipping the ball at the defender.

 

[travdogg]

Probably could have been a taunting flag on JJ

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

That was quick

 

[Donnybrook]

Mason deserved that TD. Good work.

 

[efactor]

Good to see Mason get the TD instead of friggin Josh Oliver. At least for FF

 

[MAC_32]

A little nervous that Flores adjusted at half and is going to get Gabriel's head in a blender with exotic looks if the Browns keep falling behind the sticks.

 

[themeistersinger]

I was excited to start the Browns DST vs Wentz with 3 O-linemen out for the Vikings. I guess I chose poorly.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Mason deserved that TD. Good work.

Happy to see it.

 

[renesauz]

sigh...would be nice if some of these better Judkins runs counted

Still a lot of game left.

How long have the called back one’s been approximately?

had a long TD called back, and then that 9 yard run right before I posted that

Just saying.

 

[travdogg]

Would have liked to have seen PA on that 1st down there, that was the time to do it.

 

[travdogg]

I think you go for it again here

 

[Donnybrook]

Cleveland copying the NY Giants game plan. QB doesn't have to do to much.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Bond gets another “target”

 

[ProstheticRGK]

It’s my first Browns game- I know their Oline is pretty turrible in pass pro, but have they been this good run blocking all year? Or is MIN D overrated?

 

[travdogg]

Excellent TD throw to Njoku

 

[IHEARTFF]

Njoku still a beast

 

[travdogg]

It’s my first Browns game- I know their Oline is pretty turrible in pass pro, but have they been this good run blocking all year? Or is MIN D overrated?

Kenny Gainwell had the best game of his career against them last week. I'd say its the Vikings D

 

[IHEARTFF]

It’s my first Browns game- I know their Oline is pretty turrible in pass pro, but have they been this good run blocking all year? Or is MIN D overrated?

Both. Vikes have some injuries and Browns run blocking is good.

 

[Bracie Smathers]

First four games of the season, Joe Flacco 2 TDs.
Dillion Gabriel first NFL start 2 TDs.

 

[MAC_32]

This is what the Browns offense could / should be if the OL would stop getting so many ****ing penalties.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Well, there it is.

 

[travdogg]

First four games of the season, Joe Flacco 2 TDs.
Dillion Gabriel first NFL start 2 TDs.

Was Flacco constantly calling audibles or something? Feels like the playcalling has been way better today too. It was like with Flacco they kept expecting late 2023 Flacco to show up again.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Wentz sack… everyone drink!
