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.

Weeden threw to Cooper about 4 times in a row, and he's fighting for a spot...

I see it as:
1. Injuries to both starting guards for Browns earlier is a huge problem..
2. The Browns are not showing but simple packages, because it's freakin preseason.
and, they are still refining the understanding of their new systems, still making a few mistakes.
3. You wait til Bess and Benjamin are on the field at different times - they won't be able
to blanket Little and Gordon.
4. The biggest problem with last night's game is, the Browns showed their limited stuff for
two whole preseason games. It looked liked the Colts secondary jumped routes that
the Browns were running. Wait til the regular season. The Browns are not showing
much in the preseason on both sides of the ball.
5. The Colts owner apologized to their fans for lackluster play in an earlier game. The Colts
seemed to play this game like a playoff game, like Detroit did.... It's preseason. Nobody cares.
last night, it seemed like the Colts coaches got an earful earlier on, and they game planned this
game to save face.
6. Without Lewis at RB, and Sheard at lb, Bess and Benjamin, both starting OG's, no game planning
in preseason (I think), limited playcalling, new system etc, it's tough to surprise every team you play after
a couple of games of the same stuff.
7. Butler seems to make dumb mistakes every game, and gets run around at LT. Not good.
8. I admit, I'm wondering if Weeden is lacking, at least a a little bit, of the "instant" recognition skills that he needs.
His decisions last night were generally bad, and was back to overthrowing. May have just been the situation with
this game. But I don't know... Campbell at qb hasn't impressed me. I can see the Browns drafting a qb next year,
if nothing else, to back up Weeden after Hoyer. I really hope Weeds doesn't get hurt.
9.Despite last night's pitiful showing on offense, I think it can roll. But Richardson, and Dion Lewis are the two
elusive, jitterbug quick, vision rb's they have. And obviously, if Richardson is the only one left, we all hope
he stays healthy all year.
10. This defense is going to kick some butt this year. But injuries, new system etc, are holding them back.
Let's face it, this team, again, isn't an established veteran team with established systems for at least a few
years. This team still showed more last night, than years before when they just didn't have the talent to compete.

The Patriots got their ass handed to them (40-9) last week and their starters got beaten badly. Weird things happen in preseason. Not really sure WHY the Browns were so conservative on defense or Weeden looked like 2012 Weeden... but I hope it quickly becomes irrelevant.
We need Mingo back. Pluto was just saying that the coaches were LOVING him, thinks Lombardi nailed it.

Patriots lost their 3rd preseason game 40-9. I guess that means the Jets will win the AFCE?
