Tale of the Tape - Browns vs Bears
-
Saw something today that something like 24% of our Opening Week roster has suffered season-ending injuries.
We still have four regular season games to go.
Here's who it's looking like will be/remain out for this week:
RT Jack Conklin, RT Dawand Jones
C Ethan Pocic
LT Jedrick Wills
QB Deshaun Watson
RB Nick Chubb
DT Maurice Hurst, DT Jordan Elliott
DE Ogbo Okoronkwo
LB Jordan Kunaszyk
S Grant Delpit
FS Juan Thornhill
Meanwhile, Myles Garrett is playing with only 1 healthy shoulder; and there's no guarantee Denzel Ward is ready to play just yet.
That's a lot to overcome but this team is 8-5 with this unfolding all season.
Like usual, let's see what happens...

That list makes me want to start to "lightly" talk draft, and how we need to invest in the OLine and DLine, and add another RB.
Think about how many of the players of those groups are getting up there in years.

Still thinking the use of WR/PR Jakeem Grant Sr. was a big early loss too..
Two from the other dept. to consider?
Might have Rode with QB PJ Walker & PK Cade York to long?
this teams battles with next man up is way underrated from big media

I hear ya Dutch! Since we're heading into Bowl Season - it's pretty good timing to be thinking like that. It's a good way to stay indoors and avoid the snow flakes except for the few that trickle in here for reasons unknown...
I agree with your needs assessment. 1 piggyback here - I'd ADORE a game changing Safety like Ratville always seems to have. Sometimes Ed Reed and Kyle Hamilton just had better chemistry with our QBs than our Receivers. If I had to guess, Ed Reed got so fond of the generous gifts he probably invited Kelly Holcomb to his wedding. That's probably a huge exaggeration on my part; but it's a good way to release nervous energy while my human sized Hamster wheel is in the repair shop.
Last but not least, your buddy Flugel's college Cortland just won the Division III National Championship yesterday. That was their 1st and only football championship. On the map, that's about 30 miles south of Syracuse and 20 miles East of Nowhere.

Let the FO worry about the scouting, Flacco has a revenge tour Super Bowl to win.

I think it was important Dutch brought it up considering the 1 thing that could possibly intercept Flacco's Revenge Tour. It's a great story we all like; but we're only 1 or 2 more injuries up front from Flacco feeling like he's playing for the Jets again.

makes me want to start to "lightly" talk draft
There'll be plenty of time for that. But I'll say this about the draft...What position is off limits? - BPA

Honestly, none.
There would be a lot of "in a perfect world" situations, but BPA never is a bad idea.

THIS is a team to be proud of.
Fucking A Right They Are

The real leaders on this team like Myles, Joel, Joe, Amari, etc. have these guys all believing they will play all world when their number comes up. So that's exactly what they do.

I feel like Hickman and bell played excellent as backup safeties, Dline was an overreaction since we already had depth there…I don’t wanna say too much about Hickman/Bell since @tiamat63 might yell at me and tell me they sucked ?to a casual watcher they looked good.
Hope Bitonio and Pocic can be back next week.
Flacco was threading some stupid windows, that TD to cooper was the tightest window imaginable with 3 guys closing in. That man is fearless.

This is one of my Must Win games because it's one of those games that you're supposed to win. We're supposed to beat the 5-8 Bears. But we're equals on offense, and they're quite good on D. They only allow 84 rushing yards per game. And I bet that part of that 19th ranked pass D is because ya can't run on them so ya HAVE to pass.
They're a very strong running team and we're getting decimated with injuries. Pretty soon all we'll have left is the guys we had last year, who were getting gaffed by the run.
This is a scary game...and we need the win badly. I think it's going to come down to Flacco. Can he pass us to victory?
So, what happened?
The Bears #2 ranked Defense in the league held us to 29 yards rushing. This forced us to pass, which we did to the tune of 350ish yards. Most of them very hard earned as their pass rush was successful against our offensive line of backups, backups to the backups, and Wyatt Teller.
Our Defense held the Bears to 88 yards rushing and 148 passing. Great job by the Defense, who was playing with more than their share of backups and backups to the backups.
And, of course, in that final category...we fed them the ball. Once resulting in a TD and another, 1 yard short of a TD.
