Please elaborate, you're saying in any game 1 TD is all that is needed to win?
It was today, but no defense is ever going to hold every team to 6 points a game.

Yes. And you should too.
I go into every game expecting a shutout. Period. If we give up FG per half. That may be acceptable.
The only exception is if the offense or special teams puts the D in a vulnerable situation after a turnover or bad return. Then it may be acceptable to allow more than one FG per half- maybe (depending on field position at the time).
A TD should be enough to win a game. No-brainer. Every time the D gives up a first down, it is a major failure.

A TD is not all that's needed to win every football game. But having more points than the opponent is. The Browns had more points than San Diego at the end of the game. They won a game they would normally lose.

Dude the entire game we all felt like we were gonna blow it somehow.
The offense scored on it's first possession and didn't do shit the rest of the game. Holy crap it's crazy how one win will cloud everyone's vision.
It sucks that most of our fans don't expect better. We get a win and it's a party and everyone refuses to critique anything.

The real problem is that we were told that the FO was all on the same page. If that is true, then why did heckert draft a power back and give him to a HC that wants to throw the ball 70% of the time? Shurmur like Andy Reid wants to throw the ball to set up the run, problem is that by doing that we have a lot of 3 and outs and then fall behind. Then we're forced to throw it to catch up, which we never seem to do.
The entire offense is messed up. The o-line is built to pass protect. It consisted of 1 center and 4 tackles before Pinkston went down. Yet we have the worst(and youngest) WR corp in the league. They have potential but they lack experience. Then we put a power back behind that pass blocking line, but they can't get any push for him to run between the tackles. Our FB can't run, catch or block and the TE's are old and injury prone. The only one worth keeping is Cameron, but he's still so raw it'll be at least another year before he's ready.
This team has talent but it's not being properly used. We should be using more 3 wr sets if we're going to be a passing team. Then let Weeden throw from the shotgun more. But if we're going to keep using 2 TE sets, we need to commit to the run and stick with it. This nonsense of 2 TE's only to throw it 2 out of 3 plays is ridiculous. It's not like we have the Pats TE's on our team.
Our personnel is better suited for power running game with a vertical passing attack. We can get a second TE on the field by keeping Alex Smith in at FB with Watson/Cameron at TE, who are better receiving threats. Or go single back with 3 wr's in Little, Gordon and Cooper/Benjamin and 1 TE.
Our personnel isn't well suited for the WCO. We have too much at running back and not enough at WR. When you have a back like TRich you don't need short passes to take the place of running plays, you just turn and hand him the ball. This team needs to figure out what it wants it's idenity to be and then draft accorddingly.

I couldn't have said it better myself, it's important to outscore the opponent. A field goal is worth three points and a touchdown gives six, if we score more points than our opponents we'll win, but even if we lose we always battle.

I can see things moving positive, we finally got a running back for the first time in 13 years, and that is a start. Weeden may just have it. Now we canned Holmgren retired on the job. We need a real GM and give him the reins to bring in a winner coach and hope Haslem is what I think he is a real Owner who gets involved

For the 2nd time this game. We gain major yards with TRich and try to fucking pass it on 3rd and 1

Two fucking third down and long situations and we'll throw to a full back.
I hope Shurmur gets mouth cancer.

Seriously, the 1st one is arguably on Weeden for giving up on his reads too early.
But the second one was obviously a designed pass to Smith.

1st one Obi was wide open and Weeden overthrew him, Gordon's penalty was bogus.
If he calls 3 and 1 and they execute and don't get the 1st then bitch but you can't complain when guys are wide open and players don't make plays...

3rd and 5, run a 3 yard button hook? He punts all year and when he needs to punt with 2 TO's, wtf. 2 false starts, illegal formation that basicly lost the game for us, 12 men on the field? Our team needs a coach that is a leader this shit should not be happening this late in the season.
