Fix the line fix the team

The Browns Board
26 11 666
  • Real simple fix the offensive line and the team will win.  I don't want the hear how much there paid or there playing good this year.  Fact is they suck.  So no running back no qbs no Dbs in the draft. Real simple in the draft and FA build a line. not a good line an elite line.  One that rivals the cowboys or philly.  Do that and they win with almost any qb.

  • I tried to hit the Laugh Button, but all I got was this....  

    (but rest assured, I am laughing)

  • That's fine but rest assured the rest of the NFL will be laughing when  Cleveland  takes another quarterback that fails and the dumpster fire continues

  • Shutup Troll, we have one of the highest paid o-line's in the league.

  • That's doesn't mean there good.  How can you fans not get this.  The line is bad by all accounts.  They are not good at anything.  Ok so if there so good name me the last time the browns had a 3000 yard passer and an 1000 yard runner in the same year

    If you think I am trolling your wrong.  I'm simple telling the reality of the situation.  Obviously you can't take reality

    Probably the last time we had a QB play the whole year

  • And why did the QBs not make it  through the whole year

  • Anyone here knows ive been so mad about our o line play for so long my phone would get hot when i typed about em. So i dont want to hear im some kind sunshine homer when i say the o line isnt performing that badly. They're certainly not even close to our biggest concerns. Remember drangos first gamevreplacing joe? Who was that coming off the right side that drango pretty much smothered all day? The nfl's sack leader i beleive, lemme check here....

  • Yup, eversen griffin still at the top. 

  • O line aint half bad. We're finally starting to see competency built in the trenches on both sides of the ball. I just hope to dear god we dont have massive scheme changes next year

    You're telling me your perspective which I believe majority of the board would agree with my take on it.

    Wow... 

    This team lacks playmakers, on both sides of the ball. Too many TOs on offense, and not enough on D. Plus, no redzone production.

    Both lines are just fine...

  • The point is they do nothing well no part of the browns is elite. If they build an elite o-line then everyone benefits. Qb plays better the rbs run better and Clevelands aren't half bad plus as Dallas did last year they played keep away and limited the opposing offense to less drives making up for some defensive shortcomings.  Build an elite line and the qb will come.  If wentz played for the browns he would probably be hurt and not have great numbers.

    You're really just wrong... most advanced stats have our Oline ranked higher than Philly (hard to compare olines without looking at some of these numbers). Our run blocking is top 10 and our pass protection is good, but gets knocked bc Kizer takes too many sacks. 

    Kizer has had PLENTY of time all year to deliver the football, but has not been able to. Check the INT numbers... might have a little more negative impact on our record than our above-average Oline...

    RB's don't run better when they have piss poor vision. Ala Crow.

    Accurate statement...

    Bito is back and were Joe beside him our left side would be "elite".

    Tretter has stabilized the Center position and has improved as the season has progressed... just as a player returning from injury should.

    Zeitler, playing at an average level, has been a disappointment.

    S. Coleman had a bad day Sunday. His footwork was way below the level he has shown he's capable of this season.

    U if all people know how critical ive been of the o line, we've gone back and forth for years now about that. For me to say they aint half bad is literally getting the old man down the block who yells get off my lawn all the time to say something nice

  • Oh.... I took it as a complement. Just fleshed out the argument some.
