  • As far as running... it would make sense to give more work to your weaker side in pre-season.

    Passing? I doubt there's a simple answer.

    EDIT: Looks like tia and I are in sync on the run. And QB eyes to the weaker side did occur to me as well, but just seemed like one of many potential factors.

  • missing that pap some too.....Im sure our extensive use of it last year added to the success on that side of the field....

    But....watching them play, with this "right" thing on my mind.....it just feels like the field is much smaller than it has to be.....

  • Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. We're keeping the left a secret until we're playing for real. 😄

  • Good topic and good notes Mud, absolutely correct we needed you in the film room with Shanny (well you may have got him fired sooner).1. I have watched T-Rich & West & Crow all set up far to deep on a sweep L or R and both the backs and OL is so out of sync it's a wasted play, especially the way Bills were coming Thurs? 2. It will be interesting to see if a screen game will work WELL If our QB can hold the ball long enough and not sell it for the screen to get set up without eating it with pressure? 3. That 8 yrd. quick out pattern always to the RT. to a WR, will be a pick 6 at some point this preseason if we keep running it every other possession? We our showing Vanilla on both sides of the ball imo. But the Victorious Secrets better be going on at camp practice?

    Pet mentioned that they will be doing things at night far away from the prying eyes of reporters while smiling at them and acknowledging that they were "just doing your jobs". He made it pretty clear they are not showing all their cards yet.

  • Im sure there's more to see than what they are showing.......(LOTS more, I hope)

    In addition to the whole game going right.....we also are staying short(barely any attempts over 20 yds).....so, if you look at the passing widows.....left - middle - right......0 -10.....10 - 20....20+....(plus backfield rt & lft).....thats 11 distinct passing windows and we are only using 4 of them....meaning 7 need not be defended.....

    The silver lining????.... every play looks like a red zone drill....so, at least we should get very good at that......

    I will say that Pettine and Rexy got into a little pissing match with the blitz packages....so maybe we had to just stay with the quick hitting stuff and had no time for plays to develop.....well see what happens this week......

    Really hope DeFlip has some tricks up his sleeve and broadens the offensive options some....(and before the real season)

    Oh I SO agree with this statement

    Coach Pettine is my new hero!!! He

    Brings to the table all the "Stuff"

    Great mentors have to have and then some!

    He and Mr. Farmer give us a powerful duo to fight all

    the tyranny of bullshit that the NFL and its cronies

    Try to use against the Browns on a weekly basis.

    We will be successful! We will win!! And the Browns will

    do these things in a impressive and honorable way!!!

    GO BROWNS

    Nah... twirls his hair when he's bluffing...

    Should get a peak at our hole cards vs. the Bucs. Not a reveal, just a hint... a glimpse...

  • LOL... where'd you dig that up? Looks like an 1980's porn actor...

  • Only 2nd preseason game but Flip didn't show much. If any NFL team thinks you're going to run it 50 times a game they are clueless.

  • yet another game of all right and all short passes.....

    this week = 26 passes and only 3 to the left.....and only one over 20......

    There are 11 zones and we are using 4 of them.....over 90% of the time....

    so far our offense only using a very small part of the field......and I dont think its some sneaky strategy to preserve the left side for the regular season(that makes no sense)....I looked and we are pretty much the only team that is this limited in spreading-stretching the field.....

    so, either Flips play calling is uber conservative and repetitive.....or the WR's on the left arent getting open(ever)....or the QB's arent seeing that side of the field(ever)......

    to me....it a disturbing(and easily defended) trend.....

  • Mud-shhhhhhhhhhhhh. We're going all left in the first game to our strongest side. Don't let that get out. 😄

    Ill believe it when I see it...but until then.....no

  • Team QBR is maybe 89 or so? Not bad with no #1 WR and a ground game that's yet to get on track...

    For now, Im standing with this...^^^^^^....was really hoping Flip had something up his sleeve, but clearly that was not the case....

    Yesterday looked like a continuation of the offense 101 that we saw through pre-season......
