    Why did we call TO with 20 seconds left?  Why didn't we just run it down to 3 seconds and kick the FG? 

    They wanted to place the ball on the other hash for D hop.

  •  Patient offense, nothing bold, safe and smart throws.  Playing field position and grinding things down.   

     So far, can't complain.

    Steeler defense Sunday in a nutshell...  Allow me to quote a Ghoolieism....  

    CLASSIC MARTY TURTLE BALL.... HEY, SHITPANSKI, WHY DIDN'T YOU TRY AT LEAST ONE LONG BOMB TO KEEP THE STEELERS (DECIMATED SECONDARY) DEFENSE FROM SITTING ON THOSE DINK AND DUNK ROUTES THAT YOU WERE CALLING ALL DAY?  HMMM? YOU'RE LUCKY AS HELL NONE OF THOSE OUT ROUTES DIDN'T TURN INTO A GAME KILLING PICK SIX.   

    Yeah, I'm way glad we won, but that was shitty play calling MHO.  ?

    @jiggins7919 said:

    You're probably not wrong. But we're going to come from behind in this game if we win and DTR can't do that. I can promise you everything I own, there's absolutely no way DTR can lead us to victory against the Steelers in the 4th quarter. PJ at least has done it against other teams, despite being lucky. 

    LOL, I hope no one took you up on that bet.   😁   Four for four on the game winner.

    For the Watson haters, this is probably a 3 score game with Watson behind center. DTR just wouldn’t challenge the secondary all game even when it was open.

    This game completely highlights what Watson means to the team. Fuck the haters, Watson has proved his value to the team.

    I agree. It's hard not to think about what could have been, but football is a cruel sport. Every team in the league is missing vital players, but if Browns somehow got super lucky, what do they look like with Chubb and Watson playing?

    I couldn't see it. I literally couldn't envision it whatsoever. It's surreal we won that game when we basically "out-steelered the Steelers". The ONLY thing is, I was basically DOUBLE wrong. I thought we'd be down 3-6 points and DTR was going to have to come from BEHIND. ?

    Was it the plays or was it DTR not looking at the downfield options, retrospect in the tape will tell I guess 

  • Question for the geezers here. When is the last time the Browns were 7-3?

    Covid year or 1994. Woof

  • Crazy.

    We beat Balt & Pitt back-to-back. 

    This team seems special despite the offensive woes.

    Go Browns

  • Holy shit, what a game to be at!

    I haven't looked through the game thread but I have to ask, how the hell was that first quarter sack on Pickett not a safety? It happened right in front of us, and even on the replay it seemed like he was definitely in the endzone. Hell, the following play looked like it might have been close to being a safety too(?)

    A deep playoff field that year, and losing to the Jets in Week 16 because COVID snatched up all our receivers less than 24 hours before kickoff made things more difficult than they needed to be.

    They(announcers) said he wasn't in the end zone when Garret made contact, but retracted after they said the ball was in fact in the end zone at the time. In other words, no one has any idea how that wasn't a safety.

    The announcers were very annoying the entire game.

    At the game, it seemed like DTR was very reluctant to hold on to the ball very long. I think it was drilled into his head to make a read and hit the safety valve if needed, and boy, that he did. He didn't take many sacks, but he probably sacrificed the ability to go downfield numerous times. The offense was, well, offensive to watch for about 2 and a half quarters. Really got bogged down.

    That and I'm pretty sure Njoku dropped like five balls today. Rough day for him.

    Can't believe you were there. What a game! Kevin didn't give a great answer on why he didn't challenge. I think he said he threw the flag but ref didn't see it? I dunno, it was rather embarrassing. But whatever, we beat Baltimore and Pittsburgh back to back. I can't really remember ever doing that.

    This will be hard to believe, but there's Browns fans on this board who seem happier when they lose.

    It's crazy, but it's absolutely true.

    The atmosphere was amazing. 

    So many sad Steelers fans crying in their piss yellow towels.

    It was beautiful!
