  • Winners and Losers: Browns Preseason Game 2016



    Winners:

    Perillo - was all over the place esp. with Callahan at QB

    Backman - I must have his number wrong because I thought he caught more than 2 balls. Both 3rd stringers looked better than last year.

    Lacy - looked tough and quicker. Does not look lean in his uni, but the team and his trainer seem to think he has kept the weight off

    Callahan - nice 2 minute drive

    Williams - it wasn't always pretty, but with his arm and legs, he might be the emergency starter who wins a game he shouldn't. He is the long term guy you develop.

    2nd String O Line - it wasn't a complete success, but had some nice holes for running game

    Hyde - nice INT

    Bradford - He's buried so he might have other problems but he looked natural in coverage going forward


    Losers:

    1st String O line - everyone except Tretter blew a run block. Almost always on the backside. That's been a problem forever. Lang and Bulaga did it twice.

    Goodson - Personal foul, beat for TD

    3rd string D - gave up two TDs that were callback by penalty

    Kenny Clark - didn't see him once. Lowry started at 5 tech apparently. Clark is more 1 and 3 technique, but still you would have liked to see him knock someone around. Its tough, as Wood points out in article, he is not starting ahead of Guion or Daniels.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    I didn't watch the game closely yet, but Clark made a couple of noticeable plays. On one play he kept his pad level low, got between/underneath a double team, and stopped a run for no gain. It was impressive.

      Bradford might be able to challenge Joe Thomas for a spot if he continues to look good in coverage. I think he's more stout against the run than Thomas is.

        Good to know. I could never find him. The only play I remember was him getting swallowed by a DT. He didn't get blown away, but did get turned.

          The Pack leads the planet with more Pre-season young-uns on defense that flash, but never amount to shit, dept...

          But, Ringo looked pretty good on that Safety.

            Reports were that Ringo showed tons of improvement in practice as the regular season wore on last year. He might be real. Would be helpful if he could add some bulk as Daniels has since being drafted.

              Datone Jones showed up last night.

              Vic Ketchman:

              Datone Jones chipped in with a sack, a TFL and two hurries. We keep looking for an undrafted player to jump out at us. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if a past first-round pick was that player?

                Didn't Nick Perry make a couple nice plays early, too? Wasn't he the one who nailed RGIII solid a couple times?

                  Maybe we're just spoiled, but nobody has mentioned that Crosby kicked two 54 yard field goals last night.

                    I definitely saw Perry lay wood on RG3 once. Would be very cool if Datone and Perry both had nice seasons.

                      Perry came on an inside rush once to nail RGIII. I think the Packers have a great OLB group, and a great secondary. If they can stop the run they'll be really good.

                        He's an underrated player. It's just a matter of time till he gets his confidence - he suffered a setback when Paul insisted on playing drums on the White Album.

                        OK, dumb. Never again.

                          He's a role player. He gets along with a little help from his friends.

                              This was the play I saw:



                              The run actually gained a couple of yards, but it was a heck of a play. Facing the same situation on the other side of the play, Datone Jones gets swallowed up. It might be a reason why Jones is at OLB now.
