We're not giving up big plays, which in turn helps limit the ypa for each play against us. If we could just get off the freaking pitch, we'd have an elite defence.

So British. So so British.
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -
My afternoon wisdom (!):
- Flat out amazing how good this team is with competent quarterbacking, either Hoyer or Campbell. Also points out just how god awful horrible Weeden is. Guy might be out of the league next year. I'm dead serious.
- So what other holes do we have? Line is awesome when anybody except Weeden plays. Little sure looked awesome today, as did Bess. Wouldn't change a damn thing on the defense except maybe add a corner with some size. But Haden-Skrine can start for the next seven years, thank you. Same with Gipson and Ward.
- I like Fozzy. I could see him, Dion, and Obie on the team next year. Since all three of those guys can catch, I'd like to see us add a badass power back. I don't know... maybe a Buckeye?
- And then we obviously draft our long-term QB. It's kind of a luxury to have so few needs. We could get another TE for 12s. Draft a WR in round 2, perhaps (I'd like some more speed, maybe a little guy but built a little stouter than Benjie).
- If we beat the Bengals next week, playoffs become a serious possibility. With all our money and picks, that's fine. We can still trade up and get a guy we like (Manziel).

I hate talking draft, but I think we need a more versatile O-Line. We are decent at pass blocking, but our run blocking is sub par.

Glad you're coming around to my way of thinking.
I said we'll find out if we're pretenders or contenders after this game. We have a BIG game coming up in two weeks against the (beat up) Bungles. The D is playing lights out- too bad Horton is probably gone after this year.Unfortunately, the coaching staff (as a first round pick) had to give Weeden enough rope to hang himself. Consider him hanged.
Amazing ain't it when the qb can actually feel pressure, get the hell out of Dodge, see open receivers, and occasionally toss an accurate ball with some touch?
Beat Bungels- beat Jets- we're on our way.

But, yet, recall, it WAS Weeden that won that Buffalo game....coming off the bench when the Browns were behind 7-0.

We need a running game....and I don't know if Fozzy is it. They WILL have to use this next draft to upgrade, particularly at that spot.

While the Browns are on the bye week, the Bengals and Ravens have to play each other....and the Steelers play the Bills.

Wrong sport. A pitch is what they throw in baseball.
Meh. Pitch, field, who cares.

Our D was looking in prime form yesterday. It felt good yelling out "SACK!"
Instead of depressing clock management from the other team

Oh, I agree, Gip. We'll add another back. I'm just saying Fozzy looks to have some really nice quicks and can catch, the kind of back they really like for this offense. But same is true of Dion Lewis and Obie-Wan.
Carlos Hyde HAS to be moving up draft boards. Not long ago I saw him on CBS as a 5th round pick. No way.

Hate to say it- we may have to root for the Ratbirds. The Steelers are getting too close for comfort in my book to the "play like clowns for Clowney" Bowl.Virtually all the other suck teams are truly qb needy, and the last thing I want to see is the next Mean Joe Green fall right into the Squealers lap.If he's on the board when they draft, it will take them about 1\2 a nanosecond to turn in their card.

I highly doubt he'll be there when they draft. Oakland Tampa, Jacksonville and at least minnesota will be drafting ahead of them. They've got the bills next, with Jeff Tuel at QB, which should be winnable, and they've still got 2 games left against us - not 100% that we'll sweep them. Plus, there's always a chance they pick up a lucky win along the way. They'll take whichever OT they can get their hands on, their line is a shambles and one of the big reasons for their failings. Maybe it's jake matthews, maybe it's Taylor Lewan, whoever. They've got to go OL first, surely. Meanwhile, how's Jarvis Jones doing?

EJ Manuel may start. And they're inches from being a really, really good team. Next year, with a healthy Manuel, they could be a playoff team.
But yes to Ravens over Bengals. Makes total sense. This division could be a total scrum of .500-ish teams soon. We beat the Bengals, we're 5-5 and they're 6-5 but we clearly own the tiebreakers after sweeping them.

If Manuel starts it's a different story, even if he's just game managing, he's a massive upgrade over Tuel - who was so bad against us that they took Thad Lewis off the practise squad.
