Browns Sign Joe Flacco to Practice Squad
-
To me, the only questions are rust and playbook. If Flacco shakes off any rust, and gets familiar with our playbook (possibly tailored slightly more to him), choosing of Flacco over DTR to win us games this year seems self-evident.
Get JF familiar with WR/TE speed/ depth of routes in playbook.. (not easy with DTR getting most the starting reps)
You'd think Stef would be wise to get Flacco running parts of Brissette's playbook ? (Our two new tackles and few, would need time to learn it)
These are a huge pair of road games for DTR... (rookie QB starting on a 50 man playoff teams roster? tons of pressure..
Adding Flacco feels a hell of a lot better as a QB safety net option, than where we were at weeks ago..

Completely agree that the playbook will have to be customized for Flacco, who is a lot less mobile than Watson or DTR.
Probably also explains why he hasn't been activated yet, because that will take time. Fully expect him to become the starter at some point in the season though, for reasons mentioned in my previous comments.

It's kind of a bummer DTR got hurt. I didn't think he was the real reason behind our struggles today. He wasn't GREAT, but I thought he was progressing. Get Ready Joe, you won't have long to throw and you can't move.

I think Joe has never had an issue getting rid of it quickly, his problem is more of getting it delivered accurately. Except in the playoffs where he became Tom Brady and got a fat contract

And your receivers will keep dropping balls.

It's high time to find Njoku's replacement.. His awareness.. Or lack thereof.. Is downright frustrating.... His ME's come by the bag full.. I'm sick of him...

The browns losing to Denver is what it is, I don’t think we can point fingers at stefanski at strong at Walker. Shit happens. If this team doesn’t manage 3 more wins and a wild card they would be the biggest collapse in NFL history.
We’re destined to be a wild card, Joe Flacco is destined to meme the ravens at M&T bank stadium in the playoffs.
Joe Flacco knocks out the ravens on the way to his second Super Bowl MVP. Ultimate fan fiction

Just for the record, nobody really wants Flacco starting. It's unfortunate DTR got hurt. Now the Browns may have to start him just to stave off any kind of losing skid. If Flacco gets hurt, then what? Does anyone really want PJ Walker or Harrison Bryant starting a playoff game for the Browns? We can only hope DTR is back ASAP.

Didn't want to see any of our players get hurt, but definitely done with DTR starting. That leaves Flacco, because PJ is just a train wreck. Hopefully DTR recovers soon, but only to be Flacco's back-up.

He’s so great, when he actually catches it. Unfortunately, catching it is more important than what you do after you catch it.
Our margins are so thin, we just can't afford mistakes, and David has so many drops. That 3rd down in the red zone a few weeks ago was just brutal, and the one today over the middle would've been a 35-40 yard gain, if not more with a block or two. Our team is near the bottom, if not THE bottom in YAC. It's so painful.

Which is why I keep saying draft Ainias Smith. He gets open and he doesn't drop, plus he is like a little jitterbug in the open field. Someone like that changes everything in the passing game.

What school does he play for?

People are ragging on Njoku. Yeah, he loses concentration and drops passes. But he's our leading receiver. And he's a PITA to tackle. He gets yards after the catch. I mean, would yas prefer Harrison Bryant as the starting TE?

I LIKE Njoku but every once in a while he'll have a lack of focus game with the drops. Then we voice our frustration and get over it. Tell you what I really like about him is how much he's improved at blocking and how physical he is with yards after the catch. I don't want Harrison Bryant anywhere near the football any more. If you dangle the Harrison Bryant comparisons to him - you're gonna make Njoku my favorite player or damn close to it.

Funny because were dead last in YAC... I think all of our TE's are inconsistent.. Part of that is having a diff QB every other week... Part of it is lack of focus..Njoku must be gettin some good Ganj or he's to worried about celebrating before he makes the catch..
