  • hoyer had his A game on tonite. his throws were placed perfectly (for the most part) and our so-called sucky WR/TE crew hauled in some passes that years ago with bigger names than theirs would never have even been touched.

    kudos to the whole franchise from top to bottom.

    this is something i'd buy stock into.

  • if the run game stays decent and our pass protection holds up atleast to how it did tonight, with cameron, gordon, and hawkins in there we're going to start hearing pro bowl attacked to hoyer's name. too bad he might be able to play in his first though, im sure peyton manning will send him a post card

  • how about McD?

    man what a turnaround. another dollar menu choice from farmer?

    Here's what got me..

    As well as we ran the ball... Cinci was better prepared for our PlayAction than any team we've faced including JAX... yet the passing game worked.

    Hoyer was sharp early and was throwing as crisply as he has all year.

    You mean those laser beams into the wind?..... Ya, I agree

    Seriously. When is the last time we had a QB throw well into a strong wind?

    For the most part, but he had his fair share of terrible plays. Hoyer was tacked twice trying to hand the ball off. One was on Greco as he pulled to early, but I believe the other was McDonald. I'll wait for Tour's analysis.

  • just saying 1000% better than last week correct?

    Gotta admit I'm curious... but I think we ran a lot fewer wide zones tonite... more middle, power stuff...

    LOL... but the balls were a lot rounder then...

    I thought the same thing. Gotta give credit where its due. He may not have been perfect but he was a hell of a lot more improved. I mean, anything would have been better than last game but I was impressed that he was able to be a competent center.

  • Did it without Gordon, Cameron or Hawkins.

    Our three best receivers ... and three guys who should all be on the field in two weeks.

    Game on!

  • The first decent thing ive heard on Mike& Mike

    Hoyer is 9-3 starting for Browns

    All other Qbs during that time....1-12

    Same team...same players....why do people still not see it? The dude can play ball. Crisp, timely throws, no mistakes...can you frame it any clearer?

    Was just going to post something to this effect.

    Browns 6-3, and the best is yet to come!

  • The line play was very good, but we have a couple of Farmer specials that both are quick and big enough to make yards through holes that barely exist. Any team would give up a #1 for either Crowell or West at this point in the season. Fresh legs all game long is a killer combination for a primarily running team like ours. It opens up everything in the passing game if they try to stack against it.

  • Nobody is talking about how Hoyer is the right QB for Cleveland because of the weather. He played in Cleveland in high school. He played in New England. His throws in that wind were GREAT! All these rookies look great in a dome or down south in the warm weather, but WHEN we DO go to the playoffs we are going to be playing in cold weather and maybe harsh conditions!! Hoyer is tempered for this fight!!!

    What do you all think?

    Go Browns!! Woof! Woof!!

  • The Browns have adjusted to the injuries, got their timing down again,

    oline is in sync again, and Hoyer is just a genuine, very, very intelligent

    qb on the field.

    And Manziel is learning a hell of a lot from watching him make decisions.

    This team is a TEAM, and this coaching staff rocks. Our GM is excellent.

    What another great WIN !

  • 0 TD passes. 0 INTs, 0 sacks, 0 fumbles, 15 completions, 11 for first downs (9 first downs rushing is very good, too). Converted good field position into TDs. No poor decisions in bad field position (when we got the ball on the CLE 2 late in the 3rd, we got out to the CLE 45 and punted, but that was a smart, important possession).

    Nothing awesome, except Cleveland 24, Cincinnati 3. If you had Hoyer in fantasy, you're disappointed. But as far winning the damn game, as has been said, "a man's man."

    The best Hoyer "stat" is 9-3 vs. 1-12 or 73-161.

  • I'm all in on hoyer.

    +1

    He did it all yesterday. Accurate, good decisions, checked the play at the line for positive gains.

    The same team thing is totally not the case. It flies for 2013, but not 2014.

    First, I think your screen name is a hoot...

    Good point about growing up in the tough, winter conditions. Looking at his Nov/ Dec games in his Jr and Sr years at MSU shows his completion % splits above and below his season averages, but his rating falls off some.

    Probably the case with most QBs though...

  • i don't know how that missed block by greco with cincy's bull rusher coming through and tackling hoyer doesn't count as a sack, i guess it's the same theory that a stiff arm now is being called as a face mask penalty.

    biggest stat for me: no receiver on the bengals had more than 30 yards total.

    so much for the star WR theory hey walter?

    shoulda coulda woulda.

    btw where this cb williams come from?
