Week 3 Game Impressions: Browns @ Vikings
-
D started out like they'd quit.
O went down the field and scored, and that seemed to give the D life
Gordon got showcased big time - big factor in the game on multiple levels.
First half the Browns came out with fire.
Second half, we started stumbling all over ourselves, was looking like the same old story we've seen over and over.
McGahee made a few mistakes that really cost us, not blaming him as he only had a day or two to practice.
Hoyer managed to put together the last gasp drive to give us the go ahead score.
D managed to hold off the Vikes last drive with 50+ secs left.
Heck of a game, but we really need to work on our second half game - both O & D.

agree 100%
i think the word adjustment isn't in the browns coaching staff's dictionary.

Did you miss the whole Gordon / Little are on the trade block thread?
They've already had a serious offer on Gordon, and interest in Little as well - go check the other threads.
It's been renamed" According to Adam Schefter"
Yes, I guess I did.
Joined the board last Sunday, should I read all the previous threads before posting? Sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused.....geez.

And if we didn't turn the ball over, this thing would have been a big time blow out

Hey, we scored 31 points, I don't think I've seen that out of this Team in a regular Season game long time +

Ya, 31 is about double what we usually see. Get rid of the INTs though and we would have been looking at 45 - 10 type of score. Nice end of game drive for a TD....haven't seen that shit in ages and a stop by the D to seal it on the road. And it makes my buzz nicer too!

Yeah I read that too, and Desmond Bryant has recorded a sack in his past 7 games, pretty great pickup through FA the dude is a beast.

Hello everyone. Over the years I have read this forum, and It's awesome to see what other Browns fans think about the team. I am from Alaska and I grew up a Browns fan. To be honest with everyone (considering this is my first post ever) I chose this team because of two reasons. One: No football teams In Alaska. 2: I read about how the Browns got ripped out of Cleveland and the fan base (correct me if I'm wrong) demanded the team back. Not just the team though, the colors, the history, and the name back. I found that inspiring. I have been a big time Browns fan because of YOU fans, and I own that shit- even owning a Tim Couch jersey. <sigh> So, here I am in Utah defending my favorite football team with my roommate who is from fucking Minn. I just thought you guys that are from Cleveland would like to know that here in Utah, me and my teammates from Canada (I play collage hockey) root BIG TIME for the browns. You fans from Ohio made me the fan I am today, and if I get the time away from hockey next year, I will be coming to Cleveland to watch OUR team because of this fan base. Anyway, I just wanted to sign up and let everyone know that I will always be a Browns fan. Also, I'm not sure if this is what to do, I've never posted before...

Couple Viking reflections:
- AP is a really scary RB to face. It really did feel like he could break one a any time... and nearly did a couple times. Only some inspired tackling by TJ and Hughes among others kept him in check. Watching TR the Indy/SF game brought this to mind because that same feeling was not there.
- Word was that the Vike's WRs were to be feared. Either that was wrong or our DBs got better in a hurry after looking like they missed the team bus on that first drive. We had good pressure to be sure, but we had good coverage as well.
Other Browns thoughts:
- Our D is as athletic as I have ever seen it. Great example was the tip ball by Robertson. The announcer said something about "Ponder never saw him." I say a QB usually does not have to factor in a LB 15 yds in front of his WR. Robertson got up quickly and stretched to the max to get a piece of that throw.
- We have a pass rush... no need to say more.
- JT is a stud. I predicted he'd handle Jared Allen and only heard his name called once in passing. No one should ever post that "our O-line sucks" as long as JT is our LT.
- With the exception of one very ugly 2nd half series, the O-line as a whole seemed to pass protect better. Will have to hit the "tape" to confirm, but I think there was ample reason to be encouraged even at our reduced strength.
- Gordon... again, no need.. but I will here say more. Gordon made the entire passing game better. Even Little, who I said is inspired by Gordon, snagged 3.
- RBs... saw glimpses of a ground game for first time this year. Line still has a way to go, but backs were hitting what holes there were hard.
- Special teams solid excepting the one "muff" by Travis "Tiny-Ass" Benjamin... Forget your belt?
- And lastly, Chud... dude you showed your brass today. Fake punt and FG? Had you not gone for it we at best are driving at the end of the game for a TD to tie it... a much different situation than the one we faced.

Hello everyone.
Hello back... Welcome aboard...

Hoyer made some throws into tight windows that Weeden otherwise would have missed.
Sorry, not seeing that. He checkdowned against a defense not ready for it and got a prevent TD. The Vikes are not a good team. If you don't think Weeden wouldn't have put some big points up against them with Gordon back, it represents everything that is wrong with fan analysis.

Hey, welcome to the board
I haven't lived in the Cleveland area for a long time.
In fact, I was living in Alaska right when Bernie Kosar came to the Browns - some good times then.
Currently living on the West Coast, and I believe there are a few others from the WC on here as well, I know we've Atlanta and many many other areas covered.
You're in good company.

This has the makings to be one of those rare magical Sundays. First an exciting Browns victory and now for the stillers to suffer a dismal loss at home. I freaking love those kind of Sundays!

And on another note Richardson hasn't done all that much. 1TD from about 3 yards out. But so far the usual boring stuff from Richardson.

I'm only 24, and it's funny when I run into professors who rave about Kosar. I actually have a prof who wears a Browns starter jacket in the winter to class. I was wondering where in AK you were? I was born in Anchorage before I moved to Utah.

I've been to "the Great Land" several times as I have a lifelong friend that lives in Anchorage- well now Eagle River. I may have to wear my Alaska Browns Backers t-shirt to the Tailgate next week.
