Yeah can you imagine the horror Martz must have felt at trying to incorporate an uncoverable athletic freak like him? Must have been a pain. Such an offensive genius but boy don't ask him to make room for a HOF weapon.
Of course, “fan’’ took on a new meaning for Garrett when he rolled down his window recently to take a picture with one, and got punched in the face instead.
yeah that was a few weeks ago.Of course, “fan’’ took on a new meaning for Garrett when he rolled down his window recently to take a picture with one, and got punched in the face instead.
wtf?
The Browns are going to beat the Bills. But, it's going to happen because of a great game by Chubb and not due to Mayfield.
i disagree with this part. they lost last weekend in Denver because they kept settling for FGs.
They were stuffed 7 plays in a row.
A win is a win. Granted, they should have lost. This team still isn't playing to their potential. I appreciate the going for it on the goal line, but why wasn't Hunt in there with Chubb? Hunt was powerful as a FB in front of Chubb when he was in there. Even Higgins was hitting his blocks with power. I liked they were feeding the ball to OBJ - even if he didn't catch it, he got the DPI call that helped move the ball. Keep that up. This team still needs an identity, and hopefully they can find it before they play the Steelers on Thursday. It's another winnable game if they run the damn ball and don't get cute. Sprinkle in some play action to take advantage of Haden and his lack of coverage skills. This shouldn't be hard.
Yea but that's a simple answer with a complicated result. Each of those (Freddie & Baker) have multiple issues that in the aggregate add up to not good. Kinda like the teacher telling you there is only one question on the test...with 15 subquestions under it.
I agree. And we live in a time of scapegoats, CYA, and false narratives. Especially in the NFL. But it's why I don't expect this train to find the tracks again. One, two, three, more of our problems could be corrected and we still ultimately fail because it's more than just that. I'm not going to sit and here and pretend to know what's going to happen between now and the end of December, but I've seen enough to feel comfortable saying we'll dumb our way to at least a couple more losses. And if we lose our collective heads, possibly quite a bit more.
I was screaming at the TV "HE IS GOING TO RUN IT UP THE MIDDLE!!!" You think they listened? Hell no. I was just telling the other Browns fan in the office about that today. How the hell you not have somebody keyed on the QB, even after he ran the same play on the same drive earlier, it was just a pass play you actually defended but I guarantee the OC saw that and called that QB draw in the redzone.I agree.

The Bills are in five wide inside the 10. I know the perfect defense - cover 0!
Me too. Except there were also expletives involved. And while the kids weren't in the room. They were apparently in ear shot. That was a fun halftime conversation.
Change in defensive scheme/philosophy. Wilks runs a more zone coverage scheme, so the only point of attack is on the random blitz package. I think if you let Greedy and Ward play more man coverage, which they excel at, we'd see a difference in INTs. It's hard to force fumbles when you only send your Dline to pressure. The big boys in the middle are hardly getting a breather and look winded by the end of the game.
3-6...somebody figured it out
From what I've read elsewhere, the ice is thin under Callaway. He's been having a lot of issues and made some bone-headed mistakes, thus the 1 game benching last week. I agree with you, play Higgins more often. Higgins should be able to take on DB3 or DB4 and make plays. He has great route running, and seems to have been in Baker's mind last year. Getting open for the game winning TD on Sunday was great to see. Higgins and Baker just click, which again should help open things up for other playmakers.
Even in preseason it looked like Mayfield/Higgins would be something this year. I'm not sure what the coaches are really thinking with Callaway. Maybe as a field stretcher to leave room for OBJ and Landry to operate underneath?
His speed is definitely an asset. Now if he could get that thing between his ears to become just as valuable an asset, well then you might have a good football player.
I get what you're saying, but that isn't going to work against this team. Need to take advantage of their MoF defenders in the pass game (but stay the hell away from Minkah), task your WR's with winning one-on-one, and tell Baker they will intercept every pass he misses high. Chubb and Hunt can do work in this game, but at least some of it needs to be in the air. Be happy if the Browns don't lose the battle up front because they sure won't win it.
Late in the season, talented RB with fresh legs paired with one of the best RBs in the league when the team desperately need a 'good' pass catching/pass-pro 3rd down back and a lead blocker/ability to give quality reps to rest talented RB and take heat off struggling 2nd year QB/O-Line is special.
NOTHING would please us more than to take them out two of the next three games.
Yeah the deep ball isn't there this year, it was last year. Browns stacked the box rightfully so the second half after some Allen and Singletary success, they threw to him seven times. The screen was set up perfectly to him on the tip. Garrett is a freak, hopefully his performance against the Bills leads to Lee Smith being cut.
If it involves multiple WR's taking Joe Haden to the house I'm all for it. I like Joe, just don't like him on the Steelers.
that field is going to look amazing with 35,000 plastic noses on it.This...THIS RIGHT HERE is the ####### problem!
That said, if any of you pick one up tonight and don't want it, I'd love to have one
What's depressing is having a 3-36-1 record over three years. Getting fired should have been a blessing to him!
