Browns @ Chargers Game Day Thread / Post Game Discussion (Wk 5)

[jamrock]

Raiders getting beat as well. This could be fatigue from the short week

They’d be beating us if we were coming off the bye. No excuses.

[CivilBolt]

If I’m Staley I load the box and let Baker try to beat you.

Stefanski is a pretty good HC. I want Kitchen back!

Charger defense gave up 263 yards in the first half

[Eurobolt]

Chargers with 7 rushing attempts despite having a pretty good YPC average.

Lomardi is on the complete opposite spectrum of Lynn.

Can they find someone that’s somewhat in the middle?

It is only stat because of time and possesion caused by quick TD to MW

[Guest]

Browns looking stronger than the other teams we have played. Better pass rush, better running game, better play calling. But the pass rush on Herbert...that will be the killer if we loose.

Charger defense gave up 263 yards in the first half

Just another stat that won’t mean shit when the Chargers win.

Need a better plan on offense as well. Is Keenan Allen still a charger?

He's had a shakey couple of weeks.

[Charge!]

Is this what they call a trap game? Short week and poor preparation for a playoff caliber team!

:whistlin:

Not a trap game....... This is the same defense that let our first 3 opponents run for over 180 yards per game..... and this is the best running team in NFL, so this was expected...... we did well against raiders but Raiders gave up on the run very quickly..... Browns are not going to give up on the run......

Doesn't feel like it. He doesn't seem right

No it’s not the drive before the turnover, the Chargers ran for 6 yards on the first play then completely abandoned the run game immediately after.

The cycles of football.
DAL/CLE have shown the answer to StaleyD.

apologize for not reading any of the thread, and.... Browns are for real. their mindset is superb.... they know they are a damn good team.... got a coupla my boys in Kareem Hunt and Malik McDowell.

that said, we are holding our own.... the Browns are for real, and.... we are a good team. personally didn't expect us to be more than 3-3 @the bye, but we are a threat to be above .500

do miss the long ball from this current regime/scheme, so it was nice to see the longball to MW, even tho it was a blown coverage.

really would like to see a LB added to this group, as speaking for myself, do miss Denzel.... somebody that can knife thru a defense to stop a back for no gain or a loss.

also miss SupaMel (the productive version), and guessin' we're gonna add both an end and DT next go round, altho am glad that Merrill is in the scrum today.

think we're gonna be lucky to get outta this game w/only a few injuries.... looks like both Derwin and Joey are banged up.

we are well coached, and aggressive which is a plus.... Cleveland appears to be well coached as well, and.... it ain't gonna be me that bags on Mayfield.... he is a legit NFL QB, and banged up as well.

also think we really need an RB to pair w/Ek. Rountree don't look ready to me....

we are not taking advantage of their third string tackle, altho Scho has done well enough filling in for Aboushi.... we are going to need reinforcements on the line next go 'round as well.

and just catching the last few posts here, seems that some of us are disappointed in our first half showing.... not me.... think the Browns are ultra tough.... you can see it in the team on the sidelines, and if you look @their depth chart, they have alot of talent.... two deep at a lot of positions.

wasn't expecting to win this game, albeit does seem like we're holding our own, and of course we've still got a shot given our QB and HC, and a coupla few stars on the D.
