To be absolutely fair to Brandon Weeden; He didn't "win" this game for us, but he came in down 0-10 and made sure we, at the very least, didn't lose. So that was nice to see, I guess.
But in all honesty; This team is stuck. We've got great game plans, great play callers, and absolutely stout defense. We have an offense capable of making huge strides, but the offense is like a sports car. It's a manual transmission, and Brandon Weeden can't drive stick. Stuck in first gear, stuck revving. His standing, and waiting, and lack of pocket presence is disgusting, and it'll ultimately cost us a run at the division. And the worst part is? We literally can't substitute anyone who can drive stick, and let our offense take advantage of really good D/ST units.
