Best halftime adjustments in years
-
Hoyer was 4-11 for 57 yards in the 1st half. I CAN believe it
Understand, but QB was obviously not the problem in the first half.
-
In the second half they made the switch to run up tempo pistol offense. We started running and only went to the pass off of play action. Steelers couldn't sub and young fresh RBs and our small fast WRs found plenty of tired Steelers players to run around and found space.
On D the Dline just played tough in the 2nd half, put pressure on and started tackling instead of letting Big Ben slip through like he was made of butter.
All of that combined with the fact the Steelers just played their asses off in the 1st half and weren't as hot in the 2nd and you got a great comeback.
Just wish we could've finished it off, last two series playcalling leaves a lot to be desired. Feels like we made the comeback with a certain type of play calling and when it was time to win....switched out of that style of play calls. -
Still we must be very happy and excited for the year
-
If we can just get to the soft middle of the schedule without dropping too many games, certainly can see some bright days ahead.

It's going to be tough to beat NO. They lost today and sure don't want to go 0-2. And If the rapist can throw for 365 just think what Brees can do.
And the Ravens will have 10 days off and the wife beater back. Plus if they lose Thursday they will be 0-2
-
That's the best half most dominant half of football I've seen from a team in a long long time. We can win 10 matches this year like that

excited maybe. Happy no we lost

I'm gonna temper my enthusiasm for happy and excited for the year.....this team was getting punked the 1st half by the steelers and I'm not talking about the score. Physically we were getting punched in the mouth and did nothing about it. I'll reserve my enthusiasm until I see the team start getting mean from the opening drive. Did we start balling in the 2nd half or did the old ass steelers start coasting thinking the game was in the bag? We'll see.

Petine said Hoyer, Thomas and Dansby did all the talking at halftime

I think there's little doubt that it was a combination of the Steelers believing they had the game won and that we were the same old Browns, and Pettine and Company convincing the team we were not.
I can't believe people were calling for manziel at half time. I thought we'd at least make it to week 3 before that happened. Even after a hoyer touchdown, they pan the cameras to manziel on the sidelines.
Agree... it's the circus... and the clowns were in the Tavern...

Agree... good analysis... In the second half we attacked whether we had the ball or not. Then late... we backed off a notch...
I'd only add that we had some success in our first, first-half series running and play-actioning. Only the hurry-up was missing from that drive. But we never got it going again that half...

excited maybe. Happy no we lost
excited maybe. Happy no we lost
That's correct. Happy is unappropriate.

It'll tide us over until 12 October...

oth, Tom Brady and the Patriots weren't ready for primetime either, and
they SUCKED the second half of their game.
It's the first game. Things just started clicking for them the second half.

I believe in them just like I believe you were appropriately named although there likely should have been an S at the end. You are undoubtedly a plural dick sucker.@josephsuxdick said:

Stockton said wait till the "soft middle" of the schedule.
Newsflash - THERE IS NO SOFT NFL GAME.

No you fucking neck meat nimrod.great so now you pile on with the Steeler trolls on the board! There are days on here when you are truly an ass.
I actually went to the game. Worst 1st half of football I've ever seen, EVER.
If Mike Pettines football team is built on toughness...It sure as fuck didn't show in the 1st half. Mike Zimmer's made Mike Pettine's look like a cross eyed armless nomad.
They had the option to kick the field goal or even go for it. They didnt.
The piss poor clock management at the end was Romeoesque.
Not to mention, we passed on Sammy fucking Watkins for the worst rookie CB I've ever seen. He couldn't even hang with 3rd stringers in the preseason. He's getting fucking smoked almost every other play.
And no dickhead...I'm not piling on with Steeler trolls. Im sick and fucking tired of fucking losing and listening to pushovers like you try to justify it. We lost. End of fucking story. Smacked the fuck around and kicked in our face (literally) We choked dick and blew it. This game was ours and we let it slip in true Browns fashion.

edited by poster to remove all curse words and violence. I'll just say you never know when calling someone a dick head and a "neck meat nimrod" is a check you don't want to cash. Section 138 row 17 holler for me. Neck meat Nimrods will be a good fantasy team name though.No you fucking neck meat nimrod.

You won't do anything. You will literally do nothing except take like a bitch like you did todays moral victory. You're soft and give credit to a team that just lost. People like you accept losing and are okay with it.edited by poster to remove all curse words and violence.

We had that god damn game and blew it. Anyone who can't see it is visually impaired.
