i think the browns set some kind of penalty record today.....i think they said they had more penalties in this game than some otto graham game back in 51.......yikes.....there were some questionable penalties, but most of them were legit...they stunk up the field today...

The problem is, we didn't just lose today. It was way worse than that, as there's not a single thing you can point to as being positive. Every phase of the game was bad, and Greg Robinson might have played his ass out of town. What he did is inexcusable, and Garrett needs to be fined as well. Shoot, Garrett could have EASILY been ejected too.

It's only one game. Whether you lose by 30 or 3, it's ONE game. Now, it's going to absolutely SUCK listening to all the talking heads. The Monday after opening day is the day of overreacting, but we're not going to fall into that trap. Literally everything that could have gone wrong, went wrong. This is going to be a VERY long week boys. Are we good? Are we really this bad? I dunno, but we've got work to do, and it's going to be ugly until we get to Sunday.

After Hue Jackson was fired last season the team went 5-3 the rest of the year and we looked to be in better shape going into this season so I was expecting more this year. Going in to this season I thought we were going to be a play off team. This one hurts. I didn't see a blow out opening season loss coming. This team will have something to prove against the Jets.

Those are not fighting words 52. All of that is very much a non fighting word response to a very much fighting word post.

And yes. Penalties. Fucking refs.

Can we trade Vernon for Zeitler ?

Had to check the box score to see if Vernon played. He tried to chase Mariota down early, then never heard his name again. Was he dinged up? Invisible?

From the stadium. Refs 160, Browns 25. You can't tell me the Titans were playing that error free. Many crappy calls, all against the Browns. They gifted the Titans one td was it 5 penalties in a row?

This week will be a major test for Kitch

And it's not just the penalties... it's also the assignments. Prime example was Kirksey biting on the play fake on Walker's first TD. He left his "zone" to support a run that was well contained... if it had been a run. Walker nicely filled the empty space he left behind.

On an early sack by Wake... he had inside help from the RG... yet allowed himself to be beaten outside... simply can't happen.

More later... including "the good" I saw... which may mean it's a very short post.

Brand new coaching staff. Young QB. Very little time together on the playing field as a team. Hopefully it’s all just growing pains and things start meshing soon. If we’re.500 come end of October, it’s then playoff run time.

Did you all really think it was just gonna be sunny and rainbows?

Everybody from Kitchens to Baker to the O-Line was overthinking. Bad play calls, bad reads.. bad mistakes. Big learning experience.

There were some missed calls, yes JRB I admit it, but I think the stadium looks deceived a bit. The Landry trip comes to mind, on the replay he simply stubbed his toe on the way out of bounds. The calls weren't great but the play was terrible

It’s one game, if we would’ve won some would think we’re Super bowl bound.

Let’s temper our expectations.

Suck what?

You’re probably not wrong though. Tell me more.

That's true. But shitty reffing aside, we should have put up a better showing than that.

Random points here

-The run game was never established and it could have been.

-the titans were two dimensional on offense- play-action or Henry run which was ultimately used as set up the play-action. The defense was not just undisciplined but I’ll-prepared. The backers and safeties didn’t play well.

-Baker held onto the ball too long also felt like the routes were downfield too much. Where were the quick hitters?

-G. Robinson should be suspended for his stupidity in week 2 as well.

-Myles Garrett underwhelming given the personnel on him.

-while shorter routes would have helped I was waiting for OBJ double move.

-TE position is weak spot

-and we need a RT maybe a LT too

-There was a hook/tackle/clip on at the point of attack on the Henry 75 yard pass.

-D. Harris Phantom Hold

- Baker in the grasp.

- I have a couple more I think...

Agree on all of this but not sure you can teach discipline or humility. Always thought those character traits are intrinsic

Discipline sure can be taught. Just ask any Marine

Refs killed them today, but then the second half showed they didn’t have the gusto to stick with Tennessee
