From an 'At the Game' Perspective
-
Sorry LumDummy, I not only watched the game but I was pulling for a Cleveland win. The browns as a team played pretty good. DA as a QB played marginal at best and could not win the game when needed. Essentially losing the game with the pick in the red zone.
Or the inability to hit a single receiver in over time. what was that, 5 straight 3 and outs?

You mean you have a starting QB until he starts to make mistakes and is replaced by Quinn once again.
FYI Anderson is the QB and Quinn is toast.
If you're still grappling with that fact then your takes are old news.

I heard this before from you and who ended up in as QB? Quinn. Mangini made his choice... for now. But it's obvious the guy is waffling and as soon as DA has a couple more games like that, he will be replaced again.

No three and out but the passing was horrible and netted what? I'm out of here for now. I've said my piece on this. I'll be back after the next game and we will see what DA has done after that. Good luck.

I was exaggerating lums. There was 1 3-and-out to start overtime and on the 2nd posession they got 1 first down immediately followed by 3-and-out after that.
I just wish DA would step up and actually make a play when he needs to. Instead we get yet another red-zone pick.

This set of players have showed more promise than the previous set. So keep rolling with them.

There were two instances where Mangini made very RAC-like conservative calls that may have burned the team.
1) kicking the FG with 4th and inches on the 10 and an opportunity to seal the deal. Go for it. Who gives a shit if you're up by 3 or by 6? Go for the TD. Play to win.
2) punting with 19 seconds left in regulation on the Bengals 40 yd line. Go for it or try the 57 yarder. Again, play to win.

That was right at the 4th qtr mark ... might be to early to gamble there and the FG was putting the go-ahead points on the board. Besides, our play calling was horrible already in that series.

The used up Time-outs killed us here. Anderson used one after the first play after the half, didn't he have that problem in that department in years past too?
The Defense used one, then gave up the tying TD on the play following the T.O.
We had one taken when we challenged the red zone INT.
If we had a Time-out or two left, we win that game, with the threat of being able to run the ball, screen, etc..

We were 9 of 38 on third downs with Quinn.
Gosh darnit I keep forgetting - what are the excuses again?
For all the three and outs that amounts to, and the fact we were in a game against a good team, WTF is all this about DA losing the game with the pick? Cincy punted after that int and we marched right down and scored.
Where was all this bitchng when Quinn played like SHIT?

I think Quinn was actually 6 for 30 and then Anderson was 3 of 8 in the 2nd half at BAL.

So 3-8 against BALT and 6-19 against Cincy. Maybe someday we'll see odds on third down as good as betting black at roulette
Don't forget, you can get a first down on downs other than third down, in fact we had 22 First downs yesterday, 14 via passing, 8 rushing, and none by way of penalty.

Which would 5 more than CLE had against MIN (4 more passing this week). So forgive me if my excitement level isn't what yours is about what I saw yesterday.

Look most of us are pretty smart and honest. Did Brady look like a guy here all hours of the night studying to get better? Did the results tell you this guy has something?
I have no problem giving him another shot - this season even. But what a letdown this kid was. So bad the coach had to pull him.

Hey, I was just saying there was outrage on here, contrary to what you implied.
Brady certainly didn't deliver in the first 3 games, no question. Though it would have been nice to see him get a chance with an actual WR at the #2 like we had this week (no, I am not saying that is why Quinn struggled).

Only a hand full and MIN was not playing their backups, they simply went into more of a prevent D.
Look, I am not saying Quinn played better, would have done equal or better this past week, or anything like that. But lets not make this weeks game more than it really was.

Anderson really struggled after the FG that put them up 17-14. He blew the Cribbs return field position and was ineffective in the overtime throwing behind people again.
I mean, Anderson was ok, for what it was, but I expect my backup to be able to do that. I want my starter to be able to do more.
I think it is time for the Andersonites and Quinnbots to both admit the each side is right about both QB's and move on to the future starter of the Cleveland Browns. He is not on this team at this time.

Same could actually be said in defense of Cribbs WR debut ... if he only had a QB that didn't only throw to the leftside almost the entire first game, then short dump-offs there after.

Except that they decided to remove Cribbs from WR and barely used him at WR this past week. I am pretty sure game film showed what the TV view showed, which was Cribbs can get zero seperation as a WR.
Oh, and your only throw to the left side of the field for the first game is inaccurate if you go by charting of where throws went.
