Who cares if we win these games? Even if we ran the table and got in as a WC we aren't winning the Superb Owl with this defense. I'd rather we lose out to improve our draft status, keep AR on the sidelines so he can fully heal, have Capers "retire" and come back with a vengence in 2018. This scenario would be more beneficial to the team in the long run than any futile playoff appearance this year.

Ah, that Ravens game pissed me off. The defense played well; well enough to win, certainly. Not that the Ravens' offense is anything to write home about. And by then, Hundley - after two years of watching and supposedly learning - ought to have been ready. He'd had the NO game and the Lions game. And he laid an egg.

I am disappointed; I thought he was going to be a better player than he is. By this past raining camp MM ought to have known what he had - or didn't have - in Hundley, and by that logic I would argue he ought to have snapped up Kaepernick back at the end of training camp. Kaepernick is not all-world, but he's better than Hundley.

I say the Packers will lose to the Browns if GB plays the way they did against TB. They need to be better on D, and for stubby not to abandon the run for long stretches. Run the fucking ball, then run it again and run it some more. No roll out shit with Hundley, and him passing as little as possible.

We ran 53 plays on Sunday. 29 were runs. You don’t run the ball over 50% of the time and abandon the run for long stretches.

ThunderDan
12-05-2017, 09:57 PM
We ran 3 passes in a row on our first drive and 3 passes in a row in our first drive to start the 2nd half. That’s it for abandoning the run.

I will admit to being pretty upset at those three passes in the second half.

mraynrand
12-06-2017, 07:26 AM
Obviously they didn't abandon the run, but those calling for more runs will get 9 men in the box looks and fewer first downs. At some point, Hundley has to be NOMINAL! with basic throws. And even if he can't hit the broad side of a barn, they have to throw some passes just to let the defense know they can't go inverted nickel (replace a DB with a LB).

Yeah. I get hiring Dorsey. He was successful in GB and in KC.

But Hue Jackson has not demonstrated he knows what he is doing as a head coach.

The funny part will be when in three years everyone in Cleveland realizes the next QB draft pick was not All World and that Dorsey really did not make the call on Rodgers :D

That's the picture the GBPG/JSO/autoplay goddamn videos on every article/Gannett site is painting. They're acting like it will prove out their other clickbait on how the Packers without Rodgers are no better than the Browns.

It's really only pivotal because the Packers' chances of still making the playoffs go from 5% to 8% if they win or to 1% if they lose. It does nothing to validate the thesis they've been trying to advance, though a loss would almost certainly result in a lot more garbage getting pumped out of the Gannett sewer.

Figures that the Browns can find a way to fuck up just about anything. They are projected to have two top-10 draft pics this year, and this stupidity might cost them one.

I was thinking the same thing. They are claiming they interviewed Doug Whaley, whom I'm pretty sure has as much chance of working as an NFL GM again as Matt Millen does of finding work with a team. This would mean Sashi Brown has been a lame duck GM for some time.

What a stupid way to go about this. No one is looking for a GM mid-season, Dorsey was going to keep. They could've conducted a search with much better optics, even if it was a foregone conclusion. They deserve to get dinged a 2nd rounder for 'conduct detrimental to the league'.

It worked. NFL said they complied.

Though the nature of the decision making and the interview process tell you all you need to know about how effective Haslam is at running a pro football team.

If you took Jerry and Danny's football IQ, added them together, divided by 4 you would still be above Haslam's understanding.

The Giants just torpedoed their leadership. The Browns didn’t want to get caught with leavings again.

I was surprised - I didn’t know the RR applied to GMs. Thought it just went as high as head coaches. Do owners impose the RR when a team is sold as well for new Owners? Do they need Jordan and Junior Bridgeman to show interest before they can sell the team to a white guy?

Haslem has no clue what he’s doing but he’s been told Dorsey is the best there is. He must have been listening to KNR. “Whoa Dorsey brought in Rodgers? I gotta hire that guy!”

If you need me before Sunday's game, I will be over here: https://towardsdatascience.com/napoleon-was-the-best-general-ever-and-the-math-proves-it-86efed303eeb

They are currently allowing comments and I plan to launch a DWIGHT WAS AN ELITE GENERAL campaign as soon as I get approved for comments. Sample posts:

1. Numbers don't count intangibles!
2. WWII was the best war!
3. Dwight had to deal with De Gaulle and Monty!
4. Rommel couldn't handle Patton!

95% of historians agree that Grenada was the best war.

They didn't file the necessary paperwork, sound familiar?

Say what you will about the Rooney rule, but it's well defined (as is the trade deadline!) and no reason to screw it up. I'm guessing the NFL won't do anything though because it would be too much like kicking someone while they're down!

There is going to be a limit to what you can insist on franchises doing to comply.

Any sensible organization will interview multiple candidates to increase the chance of getting the right guy. Unsuccessful ones will not keep an open mind and that can carry penalties of its own.

Speaking of unsuccessful orgs, here is a kind of oral history of all the Cleveland 2.0 quarterbacks starting with Tim Couch. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2747907-last-stop-to-nowhere-the-browns-infamous-qb-jersey-has-a-tale-to-tell

Remember, Packers don't practice on Friday, so these are estimates. House is doubtful with a shoulder and Perry questionable with a foot shoulder. Goodson gets head start on season by being Out before he plays a down.

John Dorsey named new Browns GM.

Very good hire for them... I like him better than TT as personnel man.

His big decision will have to be on Kizer... whether he can play or not. My guess is he can't.

Yep. Browns have the 1st and 7th overall picks. (As of now). If Dorsey doesn't like Kizer. he can take his choice of QB's. If he wants to go with Kizer, he could trade down with a team looking to move up to take a QB.

The Green Bay Packers need a Win VS the Browns or it's all over for this Season. I believe that the Green Bay Packers will defeat the Cleveland Browns but in order for that to happen QB Brett Hundley must play very well. He has to get yards through the air (HC Mike McCarthy) like he did Vs the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Cleveland Browns have a solid Run 'D'; ranking what?...6th in the NFL.

GO PACK GO !

TT is lost somewhere in Space.

Anybody see him lately or is he in hiding again?

He's coaching special teams this week, as always.
