      On a related note, did you see Brandon Mcdonald get burned for another TD. I am glad he is still starting. Maybe its time to bring in Hamza Abdullah. What happend to that guy? Is he hanging out with Steve Sanders?

        Does that include mis-timed blitzes where the defender runs right up to the line of scrimmage and has to stop while the QB continues with his snap count? They might as well announce "Blitz" over the PA.

            The D gave up 16 points.

            Last year the D gave up 17.... and the Browns won.

              Start with the coaching staff and goes from there. What was so great to promote Mel "Drive-in" Tucker to Defensive coordinator? What did the organization see in Mel that no one else saw that he was the next Jim Johnson, Monte Kiffen, Rex Ryan? Who made the decision? What when into that decision? Did they know that he was a DB coach with a poor track record? Better yet, was he providing sexual favors to RAC?

                while the thread starter is completely right, one important point is that the defense stopping them to 16 points is pretty decent. Now if our offense cant score 17 points .... what can the D do ?

                  I think the thread starter was refering to the whole year not just this game!

                  “What Can BROWN Do For You!” Record for the year. 9-7 + or - 1 and not being swept by any team in the division.

                      Relax, Lum. I'm trying to take the heat off your boyfriend and his 17 quarterback rating today.

                        It really doesn't matter how much the offense scores, the defense will usually find a way to give up one more point than that. That's why, especially with a 'bend but don't break' defense, the "ppg allowed" stat can be VERY misleading in terms of judging how good a defense is. It doesn't matter if you've luckily kept them out of the endzone all game by playing prevent -- in the end, when they need to score on you, they will 90% of the time.

                        They always say -- if you've got a good defense you can be in and win every game you play. Well, if you've got a bad defense you can blow and lose every game you play.
