It’s Flacco Time
-
Wknr were saying it was just some sort of roster mumbo jumbo. Hopefully the Jets don't want him too badly.

I'm surprised somebody like the Steelers didn't sign Flacco off of our PS. I mean, that would screw us pretty well.
BEING A BROWNS FAN IS A TEST TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU CAN TAKE -

Flacco ain’t leaving the browns PS, they just don’t wanna cut anyone to make room for him yet so they’re using the rules to their advantage. Steelers are committed to trying to make Pickett work too, thankfully for us. Even with picketts injury they signed a garbage QB3 and are rolling with Mitch

Not only that - but he would easily be the best QB they have.

Flacco made one boneheaded decision in an otherwise great outing. Keep it rollin’ - the late decision and not looking at the safety is the rust, I’d question the play call to go verticals there but maybe the coaches saw something.
I know there’s a DTR vs Flacco debate bound to ramp up this week, it’ll be Flacco. DTR is a late round rookie project, the browns have more urgency to win now than develop him.
No hate for DTR, he is what he is - a late round project with a high upside. They have no rush to develop him, since they have Watson for the next few years.
Joe looked like he was having fun out there, you can tell the guy loves playing the game.
I know there’s a DTR vs Flacco debate bound to ramp up this week,
DTR is a rookie with a 2-1 record on a team where almost all of the premier players are on IR or banged up in some form. I don't even get where this asinine shit that DTR isn't even a servicable QB comes from. He's already doing better than any Cleveland rookie QB that has strolled through here in the past. Imagine the pressure of taking over a team that has a winning record and the disasterous outing he had in his first start. I think he handles the pressure well and actually wants to improve and do good. Flacco is a wiley old veteran with a Super Bowl ring and invaluable experience at the twilight of his career. I just want them to put whatever guy who gives us the best chance on the field. Seriously, the thought that DTR couldn't win us a couple of more games is just utterly ridiculous.

really ?
Is this a trick question? Yeah - unless Pickett and Trubisky are just kidding every time their fans are booing the Hell out of them. Flacco has a Super Bowl W and a huge raise because of it (unlike Dilfer had there). As recently as last year, he threw 4 TD passes on our secondary at full strength (at least physically) and he threw for over 300 yards doing so. You saw our 1st drive last Sunday and that was a rusty version of Flacco. Pittsburgh doesn't have anything close at QB. Arizona just clobbered them.
I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!" -

DTR will be fine Neo! I'm glad he got experience this season. Right now, it would be nice for him to learn from a vet like Flacco. This is going to be an invaluable experience for DTR this year both on and off the bench.

He’s pretty much the second worst QB in the nfl this year by every metric, followed by PJ Walker. Can he win us a couple more games against weak opponents…probably. The browns will push for more until they’re ruled out though.
DTR has a great attitude and I want him to do well, though. You don’t draft 5th round guys and expect them to light it up their rookie year or anything which is fine, he can marinate behind Flacco and Watson and get the occasional pre-season and garbage time reps as he works on his game. They could possibly mix him in on some snaps too to mix it up, especially with the bad weather game this weekend.
The offense we saw against the Steelers though is only an offense capable of beating teams with garbage offenses (like the Steelers, and the upcoming jets)

I know., I just wish he would get his due credit. He beat two of our most hated rivals. Both of them have had our number for the past 20 years. I know the Steelers aren't quite the same but they do have a winning record. And he beat the Ravens in Baltimore which is a tough place to win. I'm not saying this kid is going to go on to have a hall of fame career or anything, but he's tough. He took it on the chin in that first Ravens game and went and beat them in their house. That has to stand for something.

Watson beat the ravens with a 14/14 second half, not DTR. Steelers yes, though. But that was playing not to lose. Which is kinda funny since the Steelers played Pickett the same way.

My fault. Been so many players in and out of the lineup I can't keep track of it all. It been a crazy season.

I feel pretty awful for Flacco. He made one just awful decision and it effectively ended the game. Obviously I'm playing hindsight games here, but down 1 with about 6.5 minutes to go, I would have really like the clock to get moving on a run. Even a Hunt run for 2-3 yards, just something to get the clock rolling.
Regardless, I can't envision a scenario where Flacco doesn't start. We were smoother in the passing game than I've seen in a while. Just wish we had a better RB and WR, but hopefully we'll be ok. Let's ride.
There’s a lot that went wrong, usually teams can overcome 1 bad turnover. I think that throw was probably actually a result of his rust, missing the safety that was sitting deep, and just making the decision way too late.
The defensive mistakes were many, which had a much bigger impact on the overall game.
Going for it on the 4th and 5 could also be considered questionable, punting was probably the more reasonable decision.
It’s just one of many contributing factors to the loss.

You're absolutely right. Our margin of error starting a 4th string QB on the road was essentially razor thin, and that turnover broke the dam.
You guys might know already know, but we're set to have a REAL weather dumpster fire Sunday. The kind of game that irritates a large portion of fans because we don't have a dome. The "12-6" type games where you basically can't pass the ball. Do you start a faster QB so he can run a few times since you can't pass? I don't know. I absolutely detest poor weather games...feels like they rob the fans of what football is supposed to be.
We shall see, weather can change and often does. I just hope we figure out how to win so the season doesn't feel over. Lots of questions about our personnel upcoming. Our high-prices interior OL is NOT playing up to their price tags. I'm not happy with Ford, at all, but he had NOWHERE to go. We still can't get the ball to Njoku. Our CB depth got roasted.
We need people to make big plays, and it's not happening. Myles is hurt, not his fault. He's fighting, but it's apparent he's not ok.
