    Chubb is gonna have a tough day of film review.

    Thought it might be more Oline at first, but no... it looks like it’s Chubb

    Its both, lot of times guy in backfield to meet Chubb, but Chubb also looked slow to me.

  • wow! am looking at some of these back shoulder stop routes thrown..Haley has these QB's looking at safety reads & am tell ya, none of them got close to the completions..

    lol

    ...just got back from rehearsal.  Missed the game.  Watched some highlights.    Seems Baker threw an awful lot at Callaway.

    Stats say we couldn't run the ball...nor could we stop it.

  • Baker's every Throw/Run play in 5 minutes  

    Tyrod Taylor=5 of 5=99 yards 1 TD....1 fumble on punt.....13 penalties minus -141 yards 🙁(clean it up)

    hell of a catch by callaway looks like the gamble Dorsey took may pay off,Mayfield has awesome footwork and keeps his head downfield

    D sucked against the run didn't matter who was in

    well i didnt watch the game so i dont know where the runs broke. I do know defenses arent interested much in stopping the run in preseason. Nobody wants to go down for the season in these meaningless scrimmages. Stopping the run is dirty trench work. I'll reserve my judgement on all this till sep 9th when it means somethin.

    i will say losing danny gave me a bad feeling about this years run D. If he isnt adequately replaced, you'll see our lineman pinch in to shore up the middle.....and boom long runs will bounce outside. Usually teams build on core competencies

    It shouldn't.. he remains a backup for the Pats.  He isn't untalented, but the interior DL that remains is just as good if not better

  • Well, I got screwed. directv mistakenly blocked out the game in my area. They're going to hear about it. I deserve some compensation for this screw up. How long does it take for the geeks to unblock a channel to an area? Apparently, they just don't care anymore.

    The game was blocked out on NFL because it was on CBS locally

    Kizer who?  More accurate passes in one game than Deshone all year.... OK maybe hyperbole, but you get my drift....

    Problem is\was NFLN and Direct thought one of the local channels were going to pick up the Browns preseason games (they did last year). That didn't happen. I was pissed beyond belief....   I bumped it up to high level tech support- Direct even had the later Cowboys-49ers game blocked on NFLN. I politely asked them how in the hell was that an in-market game in SW Ohio? Fix the problem now- goobers.  

  • Hope they fix the running game before the season starts. Very disappointed by Chubb. Dayes looked better than Chubb.

    Still a ton of penalties. 

  •   I think the Giants saw two new qb's, rearranged oline, etc.. and went to simply shut down the run. The giants defense

    isn't a poor one. Last year - the Browns run defense was tenth, and the giants fourteenth.

      The run game will come, when the Browns have more games with solid passing displays.

  • I loved what I saw of Mayfield. Probably he didn't face 1st stringers, yes, but he threw out of bounds, ran and took risks when needed. Overall I'd say good decision making. 

    I really liked both the sideline pass running right and the TD pass to Callaway, and the TD pass to Njoku is a play we need if we want to improve our Red zone offense: second read, near the middle between defenders.

    And certainly more TD's, even in the redzone.?

    Bro

    Next time go to Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/nflstreams/

    I watch the games for free.They set up all the games 90 minutes prior to kick off. Every game was on there last night including the Browns. Some stream are better than others and you may need to try a few in the thread, but usually I can find a good one that does not buffer too much. I take a long USB cable and hook an old laptop to my TV.

  • Mayfield had nice pocket presence. Moved around and got out of trouble to buy more time. I only saw 2 wild passes that he threw because the blitz was coming. 1 play looked like a screen that blew up and he threw it away. All the other passes including incompletions were in the neighborhood. Mayfield looked in control. He has some Alex Smith in him picking up 1st downs with his rushing.

    Its only a meaningless game, but nonetheless hopefully Callaway and Mayfield continue to look great.

    When did The Gem City switch to “Bengals territory”? I live on the north side of Cincy and pre-digital tv l used to catch Browns games on Dayton’s CBS with some creative rabbit ear adjusting. The picture was fuzzy but it beat watching the Bengals. 

    Also, why is it called the Gem City? I never did figure that out.

  • Ward misses tackle on Barkley and then gets a dumb penalty, seems about right.

    Two taunting penalties, yep same Browns discipline

    I'm really worried about Ward.  He hit the receiver:

    1)After he got the 1st down

    2)Taunts him

    They say he plays press coverage.  If he's going to hit the receivers after they get the 1st, then whats the point?  And that was the only play we saw him in because they took him out.  I say we should have drafted the Josh Jackson CB out of Iowa.  I know it's too late now, but unless Ward surprises me, I'll stick to that decision.
