Early observations
-
we dont look as bad as the steelers do
Only form the standpoint that much of our pain was self-inflicted...
Then again the Steelers weren't playing the Titans... who I'll admit that I am likely still underestimating, but Dear God... the Pats looked awesome last nite...
... and they add AB this week.
AB... Gordon... Edelman... Dorsett...with White in a five-WR spread... HTF do you stop that?
And then they get Watson back at TE...
The only weakness on the Pats is their pass rush... and scheme even managed to put pressure on Ben last nite...
BTW my BIG takeaway for our Steeler matchups??? Almost every time Ben had to move off his spot, the play was a dud... and when he runs I can catch him. He looks fat and old.

Ok....lets be real...hype got the better of us.
Things to change...
1. Baker...quit worry about Giants and other peoples salaries. Shut up and play ball.
2. Coach needs to toughen up..Not sure he was the right hire..gimme a few more games.
3. Endzones were terrible looking.
4. It takes 3 or 4 games to see what kind of team you have..really and truly.

For his inaugural game as head coach, Freddie failed miserably in discipline, play calling and personnel. Why pass on 3rd and 1 with Nick Chubb in your backfield and if you're going to be aggressive might as well go for it on 4th down? Why was Genard Avery inactive while Chad Thomas played (didn't see a stat attributed to him or Olivier Vernon). To lose in this fashion with the most talented roster in years is an indictment of the coach and the GM who hired him. Bob Wylie may have been right after all.

Why did mike tomlin kick a fg from the 1 yd line down 20 with 9 mins left in the 3rd? All coaches do stupid stuff.

Stupid stuff versus a stupid gameplan are two different things. Derrick Henry is their only offensive weapon and what did Freddy do to stop him? We score a touchdown, stop the Titans and instead of running the ball and burn clock, start throwing again and give the ball back to the Titans. Mariota falls apart when playing from behind everyone but Freddie seems to know that.

Tomlin is known for his poor game management.. attacking his choices is shooting fish in a barrel.
My main thought is: Buyer's remorse on Vernon.. I want Zeitler back.

Not high on my list, but I agree...

To avert the shutout he saw coming.

The endzones were weird... Like they started painting them and then fell asleep and ran out of time to complete them.

No need to panic til after next week Dawgs, If we put up a good solid fight and WIN against the J E T S then things should be ok, but if next week looks like the shit show we put on Today then you can buy tickets for 2 dollars for the remaining home games. GO BROWNS
So its a win win!!
