    First I have to review an awful lot of Minn. tape to see just how he runs this offense. Gimme a few weeks. Got too much bicycling to do first (new tires & tubes). Just took it for a 20 mile spin yesterday. Ain't gonna get no racquetball back any time soon. They say even when they open back up you have to play yourself alone. I'd rather keep herding the cats away from the woods out back twice a day than spend 15 minutes practicing shots for no opponents.

    Yeah, I didn't appreciate (forgot) how many hours it takes to do a script.   

    I've been at it for a couple hours last night and this morning.   I'm 4 plays in.

    And this is a totally new offense for the Browns. Any good tips on where to find the details would be most appreciated. I really like the fact it is kind of old school run first mentality. Keep it away from the opponent on the surface seems like the real intent. 3 yards and a cloud of dust? I'm a willing student at this point.

    NFL.com...  Film archive.  Free for the month.  Coach Stef loves his OZ as his base run call, but given the strengths of Chicago's personnel on defense.  My call sheet so far has been to stay away from perimeter runs and misdirection. The Bears eat those alive.            The OZ is to setup the boot action and vice versa. The runs are designed to maximize lanes, cutback efficiency, create pursuit issues and to tire out the bigs on the other side.    It's a system with deep history, look no further than the edler Shanahan.

    Maybe some i-form with Janovic. Lots of 2 TE sets with Njoku and Hooper. Lots of mismatches vs a base defensive personnel. Hopefully we can establish a run game with the new O-Line. 

    Also excited to see if any formations utilize Chubb and Hunt at the same time.

    lol...

    In 20 minutes I almost completed my first call... but in my defense I had 3 different audibles.

    At least I figure the 2nd series should get easier when the 1s sit.

    Now I understand why coaches put in 20 hour days.

    That or people make football out to be the equivalent to splitting the atom while finding Jimmy Hoffa's remains AND the elusive G-Spot. ?

    Wait a minute, this is more difficult than just "OBJ runs a slant inside from the slot and is of course wide open because he's A PLAYMAKER, everyone else does whatever randomness they want, infinite TD's are scored" ?

    Jesus H Fuck.

    I'm going with the given call and the check or kill.     I think you've got me beat.

    madden had a lot of play action and Mayfield hitting Higgins for a TD on a corner route to take a 6 -0 lead over the ravens

    Haven't played madden in a good bit but had the chance to play a quick game at a friends house last night while the food was going.  

    Updated rosters were a bitch and dear god is Dalvin Cook sloooooooow as all hell for some reason.

    It’s the Bears here.  So you have to deal with Khalil Mack.   You probably need to establish the run maybe get creative a little with a run call too.  You need to account for Mack on passing downs and I say you run ZBS right at him- I think he would hurt you more with backside pressure if you run away from him. The Bears have some fast LBs Smith, Quinn, Mack, Trevathon. I like Eddie Jackson at Safety too.  You need to keep this group off balanced.  They are going to fly to the ball maybe they get a tad too aggressive at times 

    I like our matchup with Kyle Fuller, Artie Burns and Skrine on OBJ, Landry and maybe mismatched on our TEs in the red zone.  I may test them early and often.

    I had half a MF page typed up on the quick reply, then my computer locked up and didn't save a damn bit of it.  I AM PISSED.

    So I'm going to put together a play call sheet of language I'm familiar with and just go into my own detail after I've typed it out.

    Maybe Freddie can donate and win; then he can call a draw play on 4th and 9 for old time's sake.
