WEEK 7 - injury report, the BROWNS bye week but the injuries go on.... who's playing in WEEK 8?

Locked The Browns Board
27 10 510
  • So what is questionable anyway?  😕

    As bad as losing a game to the Seattle Seahawks may have been, the prospect of an injury to quarterback Baker Mayfield is unthinkable. Mayfield left the game at one point after a big hit and offered a status update on the injury he sustained.

     
    Speaking to the media after the game, Mayfield revealed that he took a hit to his hip but played through the pain. He admitted that it hurt  to play like that but  accepted it as part of the game.

     

    Via ClevelandBrowns.com:

    Mayfield did not miss a snap due to the injury and made it clear that the idea of not playing was out of the question.

  • Another look.

    Baker Mayfield jogged to the locker room early in the third quarter but he in no way considered the possibility of it being a one-way trip.

    Mayfield returned in time for the Browns’ ensuing possession, and he never missed a play despite dealing with a hip injury in Sunday’s loss to the Seahawks.

    “There was no conversation,” Mayfield said. “It was not even a thought.”

    Mayfield said he suffered the injury on a third-down scramble in Sunday’s first half. He also took a bit of a hit and tumble on an 8-yard run on the series that preceded his trip to the locker room.

    Mayfield was noticeably in pain at times throughout a second half that saw the Browns lose a lead and get it back before ultimately falling, 32-28.

    “Baker is a tough individual,” Browns coach Freddie Kitchens said. “He is a tough quarterback mentally and physically. He will be fine.”

    Mayfield acknowledged the pain in his hip affected his play at times, but stressed “that is not an excuse.”

    That's as of today.They have 13 days to get healthy. If I had to guess, Baker got a hip pointer. And maybe we shouldn't be that hard on him for the last interception if he was hurting that badly.

    I definitely hope he's OK. If he goes down, you might not WANT to watch anymore. I will say that he looked more like Baker Mayfield yesterday than almost all season. THAT'S a positive. With some luck, two of Baker's interceptions would have harmlessly hit the turf. Luck, however, isn't exactly in stock, and we'll have to find a way to win without it. 

    Anybody else notice that Baker still can't/won't throw deep? I guess that Seals-Jones TD was sort of long, but other than that, Baker has no deep ball, and our offense as a whole doesn't have a deep presence. It's like...we don't even try it. (besides Hail Mary). Oh well, wrong topic for that anyway. Hopefully we're healthy and ready to go against the *gulp* Patriots.

    MHO is they're planning it that way Jiggins- because Freddy (and Baker) don't trust the o-line to give him enough time in the pocket to throw deep. If there was one silver lining to take away from that disaster, it was the o-line looked much improved. Baker wasn't sacked- at least according to the stats.  

  • Injuries to Greedy W & Denzel Ward to name a few are very frustrating. We replace LB Kirksey with Willie Harris and now he’s on IR. 
    The bye week couldn’t come sooner!

    I also think we’ve played defense pretty ok considering 

    I don’t like Kitchens & didn’t like the hire; Deja Vu all over again with questionable play calling, penalties and his negative post game pressers 

    we finally assemble a competitive team and he seems clueless!!!

    I dare him to sit Rishard Higgins in favor of Callaway in week 8 .Mr Callaway is a bust 

    so Freddie you’d better get with the program 

    simplify the offense for your 2nd year QB, get help on Oline & run Chubb whose the best RB we’ve drafted in years

    memo to Kitchens: what hapoened to play action, and running the ball on 1st & goal

    Go Browns

    I expect them to win their next game after the bye week & I don’t care if TB 12 deflates, inflates, or sends out spies

    We should be able to win if we play our game mistake free with no letting up on Tb12

    Sack the old guy

    Our defense sucks.  We can't tackle worth a shit.  Or cover for that matter.

    Agree, up 28-25 in the fourth, NEED a stop and the defense can’t get one. 

    A good running game slices through our “vaunted” Dline like a hot knife through butter.

  • The offensive BS and having 2 stud corners out is hurts the defense.

    Up 20-6 Baker to OBJ missed on the out route. Would’ve been first down. Next play? Blocked punt.

    Imagine if they continued that drive, chewed clock and got some points.

     I won't shed any tears for the Patriots. Just possible the schedule makers are equal opportunity screwers. Two weeks in a row, they get the The Browns and the Ravens coming off byes. And the Browns catch them on a short week. 🙂  The Pats are playing the Jets on MNF.
