Week 5: Colts (3-1) @ Browns (3-1) Thread... The Battle of the Once-Beatens

I can't tell you how impressed I am by your command of English idioms my friend. You must have great teachers there in Spain. I
look forward to the day we get vaccines for COVID so I can meet you in person so you can put up with my admittedly now deficient Spanish.
I think this old brain has forgotten more than half of what I used to use. I'll have to go to language school in Madrid a couple of months before
I come your way just to get back to 2/3s. Having lost so much hearing makes it even more difficult whatever the language used. They need an
earhorn emoji on this thing.??
I learned all my Spanish from Slim Whitman:
Vaya Con Dios!

Well you have three words down for sure.That's worth 3 Spanish Dancers.???LOL! ?
EDIT: Did you learn any Cherokee from "Indian Love Call"??

No, just from Kawliga, by Hank Williams. I learned one word: Kawliga.

The Colts are a solid team on both sides of the ball. Definitely the best team we played since week 1. I still don't have a lot of confidence in the Browns defense but I think they have slowly gotten better each week. Even giving up 38 last week, they did a lot of that playing soft and rushing 4 and dropped about 4 picks in the process. So slowly better but still lots of work to do. If the Browns can win this Sunday I think it dramatically changes the expectations for this team.

Unless I am mistaken Berry and Stef were just hired this past Spring.

(Or, like a Turkey in Bowling....which is 3 strikes in a row....is it 3 sacks on the day?)
Jacob Phillips stepping up would really be a breath of fresh air.

OK, so, you can't fix everything in one year. But I will give it to Berry that he made some attempts at helping/fixing the defensive back 7. Drafted Delpit and Phillips. Injury to Delpit unfortunate. Picked up Goodson.
Still, I thought/think there were some moves that could have been made for a veteran LB that have been left on the table.
-
It was years ago but NEVER forget...The Colts kept the 10-6 Browns out of the playoffs by starting Jim Sorgi and completely looking like dog poo during that game. I went to Gabriel’s and bought a oddly fitting Colts shirt and wore a dang Colts shirt that day
The Colts suffered - they were clearly rusty two weeks later and got ousted early from the playoffs but they kept the Browns out of the playoffs.

Malcolm Smith won a SB with Seattle. He was the MVP. It was the 43-8 rout.

OK, so, it seems a fair amount of effort has gone into this....so I ask the question that I previously had an entire thread on: What went wrong? Injuries, OK. Inexperience? Or are the guys we got just not good enough?

Well.... if they don’t trade for a starting linebacker and someone wakes up at safety.... id have a tough time favoring them in any matchup.
This offense better be prepared to put up 35+ a game to win if they leave it as is....
I don't see how this defense gets markedly better... The LBs generally are very green and the secondary is perpetually an injury mess.
The upside is that this schedule, that looked kind of tough I suppose going into the season, now looks weak beyond a handful of games.

they won't....they have miles garrett and an occasional qb pressure from 1 of the dl....the secondary can't catch a cold .....what happened to vernon....what a bust.....we need alot of d.......they are not very solid at all.....

I look for another good weekend for the AFCN including outmatched Cincinnati an interesting game at Baltimore. Pittsburgh should handle Philadelphia at home and our BROWNS can beat Indy at home at 4:25.
GO BROWNS, 4-1 really ? Oh yeah.....baby !
From Vegas insider Wednesday PM:

The Yahoo Pick'em line opened at Browns (+1.0) Monday... jumped to 2.5 Tuesday... and then dropped to 1.5 today.
Not unusual for a line to move, but then to reverse? Unusual...

Colts injury report may have something to do with that.
Not the kind of game where you want your best Tackle out and two starting LBs

Yep, I still cringe every time I see Tony Dungy on TV.

What is considered a "Turkey" for a DL
sack/strip/fumble recovery? But it certainly appears Newland invented the term in that article
