Cleveland Browns 2018 Season Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Didn't realize the Bengals were that young. Also didn't realize the variance between the whole league is only ~2 years.
 
Weather had at least some sort of impact on Tyrod's questionable throws.

If this week, in a dome, against a DEF that just got torched by Fitzpatrick, he doesn't have a good game....

..then start ringing the bells for competition from Baker.


Don't be like the fantasy idiots who want to make trades after a L after week 1. Give Tyrod another shot.
 
Wow that's interesting. Less than 2.5 years separates the oldest from the youngest team in the league. Just goes to show you how short NFL careers really are.
 

Actually came away pretty impressed with Harrison in this film thread.

Obviously, there is some stuff there which he needs to work on, but he really seemed to adjust well in the moment and turned in a pretty good Q3 and Q4.

After further review, it appears Browns fans negatively overreacted. Shocking.
 
It's a dirty little secret that Hubbard was worse, or perhaps equally suceptable to getting beat in week one. To be fair, he lined up against a defensive front that knew his tendencies inside and out. Watt was masterful setting Hubbard up from one move to the next. I hope both tackles are looking at a bounce back weekend. Fitzpatrick is a statue in the pocket and New Orleans didn't get a single sack last week.
 
Now that's the first good reason not to let Baker compete for the gig that's been given yet.

Just seems pretty clear. Protect Baker. Let him sit the year, provided Tyrod stays healthy, and then let him start for our new, hopefully not a complete dipshit coach next year.
 
I kind of feel like Tyrod is here more to protect Mayfield from Hue than anything else.

That was the vibe I got.

That and this team while upgraded talent wise? Still needs to come together a bit more.

I think the team is starting it's leaders, playmakers and "game changers" (apologies for the cliches). But the chemistry is going to take a few weeks, if not en entire season to come together.

Let him watch for a few more weeks. Allow Tyrod to take a few lumps and for the defense to try to become more of a cohesive unit.

How was that last play not roughing the passer?

New Orleans has a terrible pass rush. Cam Jordan is really good, but their secondary rush is lead by a first rounder who was, IMO, about 2 years away from being anything remotely good
