He should've called TO after the first down

Maybe however it doesn't matter when the QB throws a noodle armed pass into triple coverage.

Watching the end of this is like watching Old Yeller

They took the time out to avoid the 10 second run off of the clock that would've resulted after the false start.

Yes, I understand that clearly. The point is hue should have used the fucking TO which ended up by consequence being used anyway

I can't believe how many drops these guys have. It's just mind-numbingly bad.

Going to be getting a NEW HC and QB if this crap keeps up. Kizer again went to hell after his INT

Browns1216

hoping to see lots of improvement with kizer next week. as many others have said the Browns absolutely need to get the run game going to take some pressure off of him, because right now he can't win games with his arm

Kizer sucks.

Why are you watching? There's good football on other channels.

Just to keep some of the naysayers at bay a bit....keep this in mind. Peyton Manning's 2nd career start: 21-33/188 yards/1 td/3 int. Keep some perspective kids...

You must be young.

I'm starting to wonder if I have the "fan patience" required to watch a rookie QB play this season. It's actually worse than I thought, and I figured we'd see some awful stuff, but then we'd see the positive aspects as well. I gotta say, I didn't see many positives at all. Kizer's first interception looked to be the receiver's fault, but they didn't really show the angle I wanted to see. The pass appeared to hit our guy in the hands, and in typical fashion, the ball lands directly near the most ball-hawking safety on earth. However, the other interceptions were beyond awful. I mean they were BAD. The one in the end zone wasn't even close, and he had an open guy. The receiver would've been crucified, but he was open and Kizer threw the ball five feet behind him. I mean...really? Kizer makes that throw and it's a one score game and anything can happen. He makes that throw and even if we lose, the fans are thinking, "Ok, we can build on this."

But not many people are saying that now. I've heard many people say you can't tell much from one game, but it's going to be a LONG week of practice. The veterans on the team are not going to put up with throws like that, and they want to WIN. They don't want to bust their ass every play only to see our rookie QB throw it to the wrong team over and over.

The ONLY good news I can tell you is that the schedule gets a bit easier. Starting off with the Ravens and Steelers was a very low move by the NFL, but next week we get a subpar Colts team, and we MAY have a chance there. I wouldn't ever say, "The Browns are going to win", mainly because we can't really run the ball and we throw it to the wrong team all of the time. But I do think we can keep it close and have the CHANCE to win.

We all knew that we were going to struggle this season with a young team. But with stats like this I see a positive. It's plain and simple turnovers killed us. Again that is due to a young team. I believe in the future.

Well at least I'm looking for my nephew at the Broncos / Dallas game. And Von is always fun to watch.

jiggins7919

The stats are a bit misleading though. Kevin Hogan had the majority of all the nice passes, and he's not likely to play. Additionally, a young team won't/can't win with turnovers like that. Our defense got two more turnovers and we did NOTHING with either of them. I think we have three turnovers forced, and we have an amazing ZERO points from them. Conversely, we have about 8 turnovers, and other teams have probably 30 points off them.

Been Kizers MO since College throws a pick then falls apart same deal with preseason. When the game is on him he cant deliver. Kizer had 4 Turnovers on him today and the scary part is it SHOULD have been more!

our best WR today was on the practice squad 48 hours ago. and did peyton manning take a break because of a migraine? cmon man.

I really dont need to beat the dead horse that is Hue Jackson Offensive playcalling and clock management terrible as usual
