    Great picture. The difference in the game and a rule that needs reworked !

    Looks like lowering his head to make contact to me.  I mean, I assume they did a review on this... 

    Why can't a review catch an obvious penalty like this? 

  • Game of inches.

    Give me....

    - S, Nickel, another LB and edge depth (I found Alex Highsmith in the 4th, don't tell me it can't be done)

    - Oline depth

    - Vertical threat or a heatlhy ODB

    - Don't let the offense leave 7-16 points out on the field.  

    ...  and you can get an AFC title.

    Let's be honest,  if Higgins scores, nobody would be looking at the helmet hit. Higgins fumbled, that's why people are bitching about the hit.

    He plays too much Tampa 2... I HATE the Tampa 2 defense..... You have to have an extraordinary secondary to even run it half assed...

    Regardless of TD or fumble, the hit should've been called.  Of course, like me, the refs were watching the ball and possession and just did not see the helmets meeting.

    Agreed. A TD and I wouldn't care about the helmet hit. But a helmet hit, then a fumble and then a touchback, and the story is completely different.

    And the hit is obvious. 

    I understand that in a challenge you cannot tell the refs to check everything out, but ON A BOOTH REVIEW, when there are 2 players in an action and one's foul makes the other guy fumble and consequently make a turnover/touchback... Well, something's wrong and that rule should be fixed. 

    You can't show a replay to millions of viewers so they see that you missed a helmet to helmet hit that blatant as that one. 

  • Well adios for awhile I'm taking a little football beather and reflect on this Cleveland BROWNS season.

    I'll watch some of the two geezers game and relax.

    GO BROWNS 2021, set your goals high and go for it......baby !

    Agree.

    Job as WR: Catch ball...secure ball.

    Yea, but the helmet hit was almost certainly the cause of the fumble.    I mean that is like saying...yea, the defender committed pass interference that was not called, but the receiver should have caught it anyway.  No.  One was the cause of the other.

    Yes.
    Easily one I’m his worst games this year.  Great year for him this year though. 

    And Was there Any good reason why Hunt had 0 carries in the first half?

    That is a play that has to be called on the field. Replay can't overturn it. I would like to think that it will be looked at over the off-season and some kind of change will come.

    I don't know if couldn't watch it as normal or what, but the hit was what caused the fumble, which caused the touchback.

    Now, since I try to always view things from an unbiased and coaching perspective, that one call did NOT cost Cleveland the game. It CHANGED the game without a doubt, but I have always been of the mindset that one play doesn't determine the outcome. Even if that happened the last play of the game, or even like the Saints game a few years ago. There are multiple plays I could point out that hurt

    I DO believe that these calls are reviewable in college.

    I understand what you say.  IF the  helmet hit hadn't happened, it would not be a touchback...but likely a TD....and the  6-7 pts would have been the difference in the game.....but, sure, if that had happened things may have been played out differently....still,   you CAN look at it as being 7 pts. lost in a 5 pt. game. 

  • @calfoxwc said:

    Great game to watch on both sides. Really PROUD of the Browns - they played and left it all out on the field.

    However, they aren't fast enough. They need a tall Tyreek Hill.

    And they aren't fast enough - the entire secondary needs fixed to get to the superbowl.

    One more draft - and watch out - but the secondary can't cover HIll and Kelce, two of the best at their position in the entire NFL.

    So, a close game, couldn't stop em,

       But losing to the champs is no embarrassment. I just wish I knew why the spearing into the head of HIggins at the goal line wasn't flagged. Maybe it's just me. But giving the ball to the other team is just a stupid rule.

      So proud of the Browns. So close. So many experts? figured it would be a high scoring game. That's how it goes.

    Dammit, so close, lol.

    GO BROWNS !

    I agree about the speering rule, and all the talking heads are too. Might see a change next season.

    Book it...

    Booth/NYC will be able to review and alert Officials on field of missed calls.

    Kind of like the NCAA has done for... I don't know... two or three fucking years!!!

  • We win as team and lose as a team. This is as much of a team loss as I have ever seen. The Baker INT, dropped passes, not being able to contain their best players, not being able to capitalize on Mahomes getting knocked out of the game, not being able to stop their backup quarterback from scrambling for 15 yards. But yeah, let's look at this hit.

  • I hope we quit moaning about calls/non calls after today.... but I see a handful of us still whining about it come April.  

    Anyway, hell of an effort by Higgy on that play and Baker sure has a rapport with him, and I hope our FO sees that in the offseason.

    Hilarious coming from the guy who would lose his shit if a timeout got used. ?

    Disagree... the fumble called attention to the hit. But once it is seen and discussed by the announcers, and called by Gene-Gene the Official machine, the hit has a life of its own.

    Also had Higgins been hit legally there... he still fumbles.

    Good excuse for the Side Judge, but the Back judge should have seen it.

    So you'd prefer Sendejo in a single-high?

    Also per Romo we played a lot of Cover 4 in the 2nd half.
