T.Official ? - NFL WEEK 11 - PIT 10 (+1) -at- ★ CLE 13 Game #10 ? Nov. 19★ "7-3"

Today is a great day. The Browns are 7-3 and beat the Steelers with a game winning drive by a 5th round rookie quarterback. A defensive that is dominant and a kicker who can kick.
Oh and Myles Garrett >>>>>>>> TJ Watt. Miles is the best pass rusher in the league.

And any team foolish enough to allow a one on one against him always pays a price, seemingly at a key point in the game.

They wanted to place the ball on the other hash for D hop.
But they had already ran the ball and got it placed on the other hash. They could have just stayed in the huddle for the next 17 seconds and called a timeout at 3 seconds and kicked from there. Instead we run to get it on the hash and then call a timeout with 20 seconds left leading to the cluster fuck of getting that spike off after running again. Also in the scenario tomlin could have used his last timeout after the 2nd run (about 16 seconds left) and made it so we either have to kick the on 3rd down with 16 seconds left or risk running a play on 3rd and potentially having to rush the fg unit out if we get tackled in the field of play short of it first. Stef (if he called the timeout) has done a good job coaching this year, but calling your last timeout with 20 seconds left on a running clock when you're already well in field goal range is 100% the wrong call

Great job by the Browns Defense! ('cept for the one gaff) They did everything but score points. Well, ok, they actually DID score points but they didn't give them to us and we didn't request that they give them to us.
DTR had another bad game. The whole 2nd half he led his team backwards. But damned if he didn't lead his team downfield for the winning FG at the end when it was all on the line. Go figure. Give him a game ball for that. Some encouragement to take into next week. Then sign somebody to replace him.
Why did we call TO with 20 seconds left? Why didn't we just run it down to 3 seconds and kick the FG? Instead of all the drama? And another flag during the winning FG kick. Are the refs trying to cause heart attacks?
Just a total gutsy win by the Browns Defense!

Was truly a headscrather as to why you just dont let the running clock go down to 3 seconds before calling your last timeout since you had just got the ball on the left hash for your kicker and you were well in range.

Oh one thing that I wished most of you could have experienced...
After the Browns defense was announced, Nick Chubb came out of the tunnel on crutches and was announced. I thought the crowd was going to blow the roof off.
Then they had Jim Donovan on the field to smash the guitar.
At that moment, I could have ran through a fucking brick wall.

Watching the final drive again, I'm more impressed. I honestly didn't believe we'd be able to throw the ball, just didn't. And to be fair, we displayed ZERO ability or even willingness to try. Go watch that pass DTR had to Moore again. That thing was SICK, and that catch wasn't super easy, either. With a guy in his face, DTR threw an absolute seed to Moore, low and away so he could cradle it and go down. Our protection was good, Moore ran a perfect route, and once we got THAT pass, it was time to roll.
Additionally, Njoku had a rough game, we know, but check out the route he ran at the end. Nothing fancy, but Kevin was sly here. Kevin had Njoku running that sideline route ALL DAY, so what do we do now? We run a "tendency breaker" and sell the same outside route, but Chief breaks it off and runs directly back to the middle. It was wide open, and an easy throw. That's the little stuff you set up the entire game, then you cash it in when you need it. I THINK we ran it previously when DTR fired that fast ball off David's hands, and we were fortunate it wasn't picked. He could have caught it, but that ball needs to be down and perfect to a wide open dude.
Very impressed with that drive, and in awe of what the defense did all day.

Speaks to the players wanting to make plays, the coaches believing they'll make up for their mistakes, and the mutual trust between them.
That jerk route where Njoku came up big at the end was the same he dropped a potential first down on the drive before. Coaches went back to it.
Moore dropped a square in that hit him in the hands, they come back the next play and hit him on a backside tare. Knowing your coaches believe that you can do better instills confidence and accountability. Players tend to respond well to that.
Was nice to see we didn't shy away from either of them when we needed a play.

Count not your chickens before they hatch mjp.... However, as of today the Browns are in the pole position in the wildcard race at 7-3... Why I was harping that the Steelers game was critical. Browns (only) need to go 3-4 to get to 10 wins. (4-3 and we're in, take it to the bank) Two other teams sit at 6-4, Steelers & Texans, meaning they have to go 4-3 to get to 10. There's a bunch of clubs sitting at 5-5, but they'll all need to go 5-2....
It scares me a little with the upcoming game in Denver. Historically we've played like crap against the Donkeys, plus (see above) they're going to be fighting for their playoff lives. They can ill afford more than a couple losses to have any chance at playoff land. PS- that was more lousy scheduling (thanks for nothing NFL) putting that game on Thanksgiving weekend- to screw up my bucket list adventure. Worst travel day of the year.
EDIT to my betting fan... Browns open as 1.5 point dogs to the Broncos.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the division scenario pretty cut and dry after this past sunday?
If PIT beats BLT (again) and the Browns beat the Bengals, I believe that means we win the division on merit of total division wins and not going 0-2 against any team.

A lot of iffs there tia... that would be way cool should the Browns host a playoff game in like forever.
Not exactly, the Steelers would have to lose to the Bengals once, and\ or the Browns have a better record than the Steelers. Otherwise, we both end up at 4-2 in the Division, then it gets complicated.
Don't get me started on the complexity of a three way tie with the same records.
