Tale of the Tape - Browns vs Cowboys

The Browns Board
24 9 828
  • In Vegas the Cowboys opened as a 1.5 point favorite on average, but huge betting has reversed that a full 4 points so the line is now Browns by 2.5. That kind of movement from opening to this close to kickoff is very rare. Lot big $$ has gone towards the Browns to win.

    Oh, and my daughters book published on Tuesday was sold out on Amazon in two days. Just thought I'd throw that in. LOL!?

    Tiamat told everyone to bet the Browns based on his analytics. However, the Browns didn't really lose. Not in the fantasy work where Tiamat dwells.

    I'm sorry Ghoolie, I don't socialize with men who beat women. 

    Nothing personal, of course.

    No I didn't. 

    I only explained some X's and O"s stuff because I love talking ball. If this is a 'money where your mouth is'... not only did I bet the over, I bet against the Browns.

    Did it make you feel strong, beating your first wife? 

    You must have a tremendous amount of guilt. 

    Perhaps you should find Jesus, and ask his forgiveness.

    Dude, I know you love talking football. But you have a life. Live it. Do something in the real world.

    You bet football? This you think is something admirable or intellectual?

    If you were any good at this shit, you would have an NFL job, and not waste your life providing statistics for all us assholes (me included).

    You bet on football, I bet on me. I risked all we had on a start up company. we just secured $21 million in financing to build q new plant in CA. I also am raising funds for a new start up for a water technology I invented.

    Now, the point of this is not a pissing contest, for there are serial entrepreneurs who make me look like Mild Garrett, WPOY - Wimpy Player Of The Year.

    You are a bright guy. Set your sights higher. You deserve better than putting all that effort into this fucking moshpit.

    I believe in you. You deserve more.

    If you were one of my employees,.or son, that's what I would tellbyou.

  •   Tale of the Tape  
    O f f e n s e D e f e n s e
    Cleveland Rush /G Pass /G Sacked Run D /G Pass D /G Sacks Give/Take
    BROWNS 119 12th 236 19th 45 105 11th 185 2nd 49 -9
    Cowboys 113 14th 274 3rd 40 112 16th 205 5th 46 +10

    2023 season stats.....of which we opened the year as one of the top 3 rushing teams in the league.  And we played like it until Chubb got hurt.  Steadily throughout the season we brought that number down.  And we still don't have Chubb so I would expect it to continue to fall to it's next meta-stable state.  That's where the Cowboys are a bit vulnerable though.  So we're going to have to be able to run to win this game.  The Cowboys are #3 passing the ball.  We're #2 against the pass but the Cowboys are gonna get yards passing the ball.  We don't want Watson to have to be involved in a boat race of a game.  We will need to be able to run...slow the game down...take FG's whenever in range...and play good defense.  Put the crazy/aggressive analytics 4th down playbook away, at least until you figure out the offense's capabilities.  -  I'm hoping we can steal this win -

    So, what happened.  Well, we continued our downward trend at running the ball.  The Cowboys being #5 against the pass did their thing on our passing game.  We gave up a ST TD.  We then panicked and started going for it on 4th down all the time...and not making it.  We accomplished the creation of a negative feedback loop.  And then the game was over.  ( - and Watson finished with a QB rating of 51...although one INT went right through the receiver's hands - )
