My daughter has a freaking volleyball game from 1pm to 3pm. Obviously my daughter is more important than a football game, so I have to miss this Falcons match up....and I'm NOT happy about it. The good news is that my daughter loves learning the sport, and she has fun with me there because I used to play competitively and what not. The bad news is, she's 9 and watching these girls learn to play volleyball is like the most obnoxious thing ever, hahaha. The ball flies all over the place, and almost never over the net. *sigh*
Anyway, I'm really excited about the match up, and I don't fear the Falcons near as much as the Chiefs. I'm not saying we're going to WIN, but I do think there's a chance. We're healthier, we've got another week under our belt with new staff, and I think we're due. That's right, I think we're actually due for a game to go our way, and for another team to piss themselves. Would I bet on it? Uhhhh....nope. Lol. But the Falcons defense is perfect for our offense's continued progress, and it wouldn't shock me at all to see us put up around 30 points. Players of the game:
Baker Mayfield, 27-42 for 311 yards, 1 td, 1 INT.
Nick Chubb, 21 rushes, 123 yards, 2 tds and 1 fumble.
Myles Garrett, 2 sacks, 2 TFL, 1 forced fumble.
We stall 3 times in the red zone, twice settling for FG's, and once turning it over on downs. This is effectively the difference in the game, and while we fight, we don't quite have the firepower. But chin up Browns fans, I still think we could have a chance with a defensive TD, and all that really matters is we continue to grow, which I think we will. Suppose Baker continues this trend, and he finishes the year with like 20 TD passes, and 13 INTs, with a rating of around 83ish. I will effing TAKE something like that, with the kid making a monster jump in year 2.
Falcons - 37
Browns - 27
Random thought....does anybody else kind of like Gregg Williams as the head coach? I find myself respecting him during press conferences, and I like what he says. Also, I'm not sure our reduction in penalties last week was a coincidence, as Gregg preaches accountability and discipline. If our team somehow gets STRONGER in the second half of the year, and it's obvious our young players are improving, our coaching decision could be a bit more difficult.

He’s off to a good start and I like his style. It feels like a flip of the spectrum from what Hue was offering.
Time will tell.

Anywhere to stream this? Here in Toledo, we have NE/TENN and Chi/Det. Would have to think that Cleveland/ATL would be a better match up. Must be Disney sticking it to us! lol

More Outside and Inside zone runs with Chubb. I'd say that's about half of what we've been giving him so far.
