  • Leon Mcfadden, Buster Skrine, Paul Kruger Tashaun Gipson and Spencer lanning have looked good.

    Pass rush is looking beast honestly.

    Weeden and the offense have had poor field position all game, and have not looked in much of a rhythm in the 1st half. Things not too open downfield

  • Just happy to be able to watch a game on local broadcast.

    Ruining threads since 1897.

  • Time to watch the scrubs!

    In my opinion this game is showing that the browns are still young, but talented if a little raw. The offense got first downs then would stall. With T rich in they had more success progressing downfield, I think with some time to let the offense develop they will be fine. D for the first time this preseason looked better than the O

  • Is it just me or has Kosar started to wear his hair like Ricxk Sponaugle?

  • The honeymoon is over, was hard to watch pretty depressing after the first two games. On the bright side Skrine and Kruger played well and we had a nice pass rush.

  • we had a nice pass rush, and the Colts passing game smoked us

    NOT GOOD

  • hey the niners and packers got their asses handed to then this past week. are they all of a sudden non-relevant?

    first three games of regular season will tell us a lot more than this pick-up game.

    btw: if weeden was smart he would've talked to luck after the game and asked how he looks so young and maybe even asked to let him rub him in order to get some of his 'luck'.

  • Lol. Granted I didn't watch a down of this game as I was too busy jamming to live music and downing liquor buckets, but calm down. It's the preseason. I guarantee half the plays in that game are not on the play card week 1. Put things in perspective: NE barely managed 9 points against the lions. The same lions team that our first team destroyed. I'm sure as shit not worried about the Patriots this year as long as Brady is QB. Teams have bad games, and I'm happy to see we had one when they dont count. This will be a great learning experience that will only help.

    Let's start bitching when these losses actually matter. And be happy we won't be as bad as the Jets (re-watched the game last night on the NFL channel and wow they're awful).

    Agreed Mic. This game means nothing.

  • Horton wasn't blitzing to put pressure on the DBs...so realize what preseason games are for. A poster on another board made a good observation I'll parrot here: coaches perhaps thought winning the home games was good for moral, and are using the away games to put the players in positions to make mistakes. Still trying to figure out a few roster spots, RG, CB particularly.

    This was McFadden's first game, and they wanted to test him. It not like Wayne is a future hall of famer folks. skrine seems to be rising to the challenge in year 2, as is gipson. By contrast, ward looked rusty. It is what it is....a tuneup game.

  • Damn odd game.

    We effectively moved the ball the first series until we got the Holding Penalty.

    After that Penalty, we did nothing . . . if I didn't know better I'd say it was intentional.

    I saw Weeden overthrow a WIDE open reciever, there was no one within 10 yards of the guy, there was no pressure.

    Gordon and Little seemed a bit lackadaisical on their routes, and I'm not sure if Benjiman even played WR.

    Maybe it was just player evaluation (RG), but after all the Pundits were saying this was a dress rehearsal game and we would see more from the O & D, I have to say I didn't see it.

    I did hear the Announcers say that the Colt's Owner apologized to the Fans for how they (Colts) played their first home Pre-Season game.

    I know we're better than what we showed last night, I even mentioned in Chat that it didn't even look like we'd practiced that week.

    It was just one odd damn game.

  • Just cause pundits call it a dress rehearsal doesn't necessarily mean that's how the coaches approached this game. Based on what I saw, it was more an evaluation than a dress rehearsal. Horton being conservative with his play calling, for sure.

    Also saw lazy route running....my biggest concern. Hopefully this performance will serve to bring Gordon and little back to earth.
