amazing how many players the browns have knocked out for the season.

that's why i'm already salivating for this sunday.

You're a fucking douche dude.

You'd rather see the Browns lose than be proven wrong wouldn't you?

You know, Walter, that would hurt if anyone with an ounce of conviction said it.

But since you'll love me by month's end, the above carries no impact whatsoever...

I was really hard on Schwartz at the beginning of the year and preseason but he has stepped it up and played his ass off.

You had no idea then; you have no idea now. Just stop it...

So, egg in the face of bitchers.

Well, it's been 4 games. Our line looks like one of the best in the league. Hoyer has a ton of time. His shirt is clean. One of the lowest sack #'s in the league. One of the highest rushes avg's in the league.

Is it too soon? You did say 3 games, right?

There once was a milkman named Schwartz,

Whose cock was all covered with warts.

But women would play,

with his dick anyway,

'cause good ol' Schwartz came in quarts.

The timing is off. You need another syllable in the last line. "Because good ol Schwartz came in quarts" would definitely sound better.

Yeah, you know...it happens....it's the NFL....... NO player wins every play. Get over it already. The league is FULL of amazing athletes going at it one play after another. So, if you watch Schwartz all day, then yes, you will see someone beat him. Dude is not THAT bad....average, yes....bad? ..no. Watch ever play of Dansby....or anyone....and guess what, they'll get pushed over too......geez

7 full pages devoted to this one guy is so freakin ridiculous. And it only establishes that you have an unhealthy focus on one player, when there are so many other players and area's in need of attention and that have a greater effect on the team......

Mud, you're not looking close enough it seems. He is the weak link in an otherwise stout Oline. It's a difference maker.

I know. But you have to admit he did look pretty silly going backwards on one foot and then up in the air. That was the definition of losing leverage.

No argument there... and it was made worse by the fact that he had engaged, separated and was in position to handle the bull rush with a punch to rusher's (Heyward's?) chest... but let him get to his body.

If you have the recording, then check out 08:55 of Q2.

@texasag1969 said:

LOL-he must have missed Schwartz practically going airborne into Hoyer at the end there.

I told ya... that one is not on Schwartz. West missed the chip...

But hey, what do Mike and I know?

Who is doing this grading? We averaged 6 yards per carry and gave up 3 sacks, are we blaming all three on Schwartz? I saw some nice runs to the right side and some very good protection in the second half, sometimes Hoyer had all day to throw.

Hey, Dummy...

Were you one of those kids that blamed your Little League teammate for losing the game just because he made the last out?

Maybe if he dropped the pop fly that would have put the side away...

I'm quickly coming to the conclusion that 85-95% of football fans watch the ball.

This isn't college. Even GREAT o-linemen are going to get beat from time-to-time. I thought Schwartz played quite well. Very solid run-blocking.

But, I get your point... you always have to be right, so you're going to look for anything that confirms your point. It's called "research bias." It gets annoying for the rest of us who are trying to watch the game and hoping for THE BEST from all of our players, not looking for faults in guys "WE PREDICTED" wouldn't be good...

Watch the tape and you'll see that Hoyer needs to improve his pocket awareness. Stood there like a statue, when he could and should have just stepped forward. He'll learn. But 2 out 3 sacks could have been avoided.....

And we sure as hell didnt lose because of one sack on one series.....the reason we lost is because we gave up the whole first 1/2.....

Because it's Bitonio's natural position...

Bito was a LT, and swapping him and Schwartz weakens two positions.

How does it make sense to put a tall, RT with Bull-rush issues inside?
