Tale of the Tape - Browns vs Chargers
-
The Chargers have gotten beat badly on RBs catching passes out of the backfield. We’ve had breakdowns deep they’ve had them in the flats. The LBs aren’t reading and diagnosing well and they’ve had chunk yardage there. I think they will try to make the adjust this week facing Chubb and Hunt and it may even soften the middle for Njoku and Co.
This will be a weird game and I’m watching the over under too. You will essentially have two teams trying to play keep away and sustain long drives. They don’t want our running game taking over and it can. Herbert is playing hurt…he’s ripping the ball but I don’t think it’s the type of injury where they want him zinging it way down field with Myles back. It will be underneath short stuff and we typically give that up. If Keenan Allen is back plus for them and employing this strategy.
We need Kevin to call a better game in the redzone this will come down to who scores TDs in the redzone

They're probably going to do what the Steelers did, which is run 90% of their offense away from him as well as chips and double teams. We have ZERO pass rush on the other side. When is Clowney due back?

possibly in time for the chargers, but still isn't practicing. Late in the week they will make the call.

The Chargers Oline isnt good
Then we want to credit Sherbert for getting the ball out quickly because they've only given up 4 sacks.
Might straight up come down to Chubb and Hunt going off and playing keep away from Herbert.
This is who we are right now. We're not an explosive offense. We have to play from the lead.

Shhh! Don't let him hear that or we won't kick any FG's again.

There's a bit of that, but there's also this Big Ben, Mahomes, Joey Buckets, type attitude Herbert also has. He's more than willing to hold onto the ball for downfield shots because he's also athletic enough to create with his legs to buy time to throw.
-
There is also a good bit of MIke Williams, seventh overall pick (2017) all 6'4" and 218 lbs of him, (he ran a 4.54 forty) - big downfield threat.
from wikipedia:
"
2021 season
Williams had a breakout season in 2021, setting career highs in receptions (76), targets (129), and yards (1,146) while scoring nine touchdowns."
*****************************
Without Mike Williams - Hebert would have had big trouble.

The Sirius XM radio crew (mainly Pat Kirwan & Jim Miller) cover the NFL draft and the lead up to it and post draft better than most. I wish they would just take over all day Papa and Weiss are HORRIBLE
They loved Jamaree Salyer and early returns appear that the Chargers got a good one and he will do fine for now.
You got to rough Herbert up to the extent that you can- and that means maybe bringing a blitz off the edge they don’t expect and getting free pass at the QB. Anyone remember last year when we had a wounded QB? Also We didn’t fair too well last season when we let the Chargers go downfield and get vertical on routes. If we go all vanilla and drop everyone - gonna be a real long day

Don't hold your breath on Clowney anytime soon. Still not practicing this week. One thing for sure, the guy is guaranteed to miss a bunch of games every year.

That has been his career in a nut shell , Lar... You love the talent... You just wish his availability was better than what it's been...

You can't let a QB count the house. Someone will be / or get open somewhere. They've gotta feel pressure.

Watched Chargers at Texans on nfl plus.. #68 J. Salyer
looks larger now than he played at Georgia. (chest mass) But he's not a 6'4" Tackle..Maybe 6'2 with same playing guard body type. Nice wide base outside
Chargers only run to his side with TE/WR help..Herbert not once rolled to Sayler's side//right roll-outs/ Eckler scores 2 TD's off RG/RT in 1st half
Salyer never saw any help in his pass pro.. Sayler is excellent at staying in his lane & passing guys off inside with no free runs at Herbert. Sayler shows good outside vision for a move to LT
You can get Salyer moving on his heels backwards with strong bull rushes(twice)
Salyer's real issue ?
Don't let him latch on to your chest plate.. His 33" Guard arms can be beaten on inside or outside swim techs. Got beat once on spin move inside.
Texans RB Pierce scored on a long TD run in the 2nd quarter off RT... When we pull Bitonio with Teller at Conklin's side... It's Chunt gone wild
Chargers defense is fast.. Blitzed Davis Mills from anywhere..Most success was Mills downfield passing.. because the underneath Chargers speed is excellent/tackle real well/ K.Mack just gets more pissed off, the more ya want to test him on 4th downs..he's always a beastly problem on gameday's

Yes. And when we can’t win with four we got to bring a guy or guys. Joe doesn’t do this enough

...and so, turning the page to the upcoming game against the Chargers...a game that is now a Must Win because we lost to the Jets (or Falcons, take your pick). If you lose to a team that you're supposed to beat, then you've gotta win the game you're supposed to lose to get back on track. So now we've gotta do that twice.
Our run D fell 10 spots...in one game...and we saw it happen on TV. Fortunately, the Chargers rank dead last in running the ball. So, because they're playing our D we can probably pro-rate them to middle of the league at rushing. But the party is over regarding the QB's we'll be facing. Sherbert has the Bolts leading the league in passing. Partly by necessity since they suck at running the ball.
Their OL does a good job of protecting Sherbert. So I'd have to assume that he'll have the time to pick us apart.
The two defenses are pretty even so once again we'll need our offense to save the day. We're going to have to score points. And not pass them up because we're greedy.

I fully expect Myles and Clowney to play. He won't have all day. Hopefully. Lol

Before I give you the numbers, I want to ask - what is "enough", in your mind?
Let's just use the ATL game in a vaccuum being that we lost our pass rush for the first time this season then.
-
I had some bourbon up my nose when I read…”Chunt gone wild”
Opps!
failed to mention most of my tape scouting includes some mixture of Bacardi's ?
As soon as I watched the Pierce TD replay? twas my 1st voice reaction after.. Chunt's going to go wild
Top 3 Jim Donovan's can't says... More surprised I beat Flugel to using it
Good Day gents! Beautiful fall day for some grandson doubleheader baseball
We will need a better defensive effort, than our last one verse the Steelers.. No better time to find it than Sunday
-
Chubb will have about 140 yds with about 8 minutes to go . He'll never see the field again.
Im curious why our best player never sees the field during crunch time?

Clowney is Coutney Brown
Not exactly Tom. If you want to say he's injury prone, you're 100% correct. Checking, in his 9 seasons, he's only played in every game once. The difference between him and Courtney is when Clowney is healthy enough to play he's actually pretty decent. Unlike "soft" Brown.
-
I'd like to think the Browns can win this game... But too many things need to go just right for them... I just get visions of Justin Herbert carving up Joe Woods Soft Zone D...

Brown was really good! Then he got that first injury. And he was never really good again. Clowney gets hurt every year and misses games. A substantial negative. But he usually gets back on the field where he still plays at quite a high level. He's a mercenary that we have to replace, and that we're lucky to have. Especially in light of the current condition of the front 7.

Yeah... that requires a pass rush. And if you're not getting one, you have to man up and blitz yourself a pass rush.
