Scary that Suggs made Joe Thomas his bitch a couple of times, sidetone PFF still has the Browns with a solid OLine

Not the first time...

Hard pressed to think of a DE who's had more success than Suggs v Joe.

It looks like he's expecting help from Erving, but he shouldn't be - the right side of the line is basically manned up, three-on-three.

Inexperience of a day 3 rookie guard who used to play tackle.

Not knowing the line call, we can't be sure of that.

With two of the four defenders on the right side sprinting into coverage only one OL ended up unoccupied... Cam.

It has been well established on tape that Cam chases movement away from him... that he only slid right here is actually encouraging. I have seen him hopelessly (and haplessly) chase looping defenders by running across the face of our other OL. Opponents game-plan this propensity and this is an example.

Is Drango faultless? No, and I say that knowing that this was a tough match up with a quicker, lighter (275) Smith who swam him as soon as he planted... which he was the only one to do. Makes me think he missed the call, but I can't be sure.

So someone between Drango and Cam missed the line call here. I'm pretty sure the OL Coach knows who it was.

About the same result as this:

Yep, a bad play for sure. I'm surprised Hue Jackson didn't say, "I expect the QB to win the game! Josh needs to break that tackle and throw the ball 80 yards in the air for a touchdown. That's what I expect!"

I like it. I'm not quite so keen on seeing Nassib/Schobert on the other side, or whoever it is.

Joe Haden looks slow. He had a PBU early on, but only because the ball was underthrown. He doesn't seem able to cover the better receivers around. Maybe it's injury related, but even so, we need him to be healthy, and he's not very.

the higher ups always come out as befuddled or surprised when they see fans with pitchforks and lit torches strolling towards their houses, yet a couple of well conceived words on a megaphone could quell the beast.

​the draft next year is gonna be make or break for me cuz if they went for developmental players this year…..they got a lot of them. next year better be a truck load of #1 grade A prime blue ribbon stud beef. (hello, frisco!!)

Another example....how about Hogan rushing for a 100 yards one week?.....Hue saw that coming?.....not me....nor the other team.....that was something else....

Has it happened since?......nope.....has Hue tried it again?.....yep......did the other teams learn and adjust?......yep......will Hogan ever rush for 100 yards again?......nope

So....in a nutshell.....that was a good game plan, that no one saw coming.....and it worked well....but the other teams adjusted and then we lost....

So we can stand with a team and have the lead at halftime or 3rd qtr but can't change planning or formations at halftime?

If we are winning at the half or leading in the third, are we supposed to be changing what we are doing?....wouldnt that be counter productive?

We can grab the lead with our talent but can't finish?

Correct. We are losing because the other teams have better players....not because they make better adjustments.....

Maybe better adjustments than going with a proven loser?

If we are even or leading to that point, how would the game plan be a proven loser?

Maybe try something different in blocking?

I think we do.....plus more.....like switch QB's mid game, mix up talent, use weird formations, run the Pryordogg, etc......but, all with limited talent and virtually no experience at key positions.....again, 2 teams adjusting.....one has a bunch of raw kids and the other has more talented AND experienced players.....who SHOULD win?

These guys are supposed to be pros.

1st and 2nd year pro's, that is.....against teams averaging 4-5-6 year pros.....

They adjust in college too.

Yep....and the better more talented team usually wins too.....

But can't here?

We do adjust......but it'll take a HUGE adjustment in the "talent" and experience department, before we start winning(and that wont happen at half time)

@mudfly said:

Like I said above....game planning could be reflected in our strong first half play.....which is where most of that would show up....

Adjustments are gonna be harder, since it's us planning against them.....

Good teams come at you with their game and challenge you to stop them......they dont adjust to bad teams...

Bad teams(thats us, btw) can not come at you the same way.....we HAVE to game plan for each team and try to find their weakness.....sometimes it isnt enough.....and to adjust to beat MUCH better talent, just isnt something bad teams are capable of doing.....

We get killed....week in and out.....because of talent.....talent......talent....

Why is this so hard to see????

If you see a movie and all the actors suck.....do you think it's the directors fault?.....or is the casting guy?
