2019 Browns Rant Thread

Not to bust this up but the Titans are 5-5 and a half game back of a playoff spot and just beat KC.

They arent some hot garbage team. Not great but not some easy peasy win.

It looked like our opener was the worst loss ever when the Titans stood at 1-2, and in a way is still is, but Tannehill coming in has changed things.

For those who want to do the full Mora, here are the current 5th-13th spots in the AFC...

Tannehill seems to have made a good deal of difference there.

Cool, but I was talking about Buffalo.

Like, what are you even arguing here other than just picking a nonsense fight?

Simply that Baltimore, somewhat similarly to Buffalo, has feasted on dogshit teams.

They do have two very good wins, however. We'll see how Buffalo does going forward (hopefully not good).

The safety had my blood boiling. Browns have given up a ton of sacks be it because of baker or the shit offensive line. Chubb is rolling. Team is up 9-7 and pinned on their own goal line.

What’s my man Freddie dial up? Empty backfield.

Baker caught the snap on the half yard line with a defender already in his grill. Fucking mind boggling.

I don’t get the Wilks hate. I need it explained to me. I’m clearly missing something as a limited football person.

I was glad to see Denzel Ward look solid today. Baker made throws he hasn’t made most of the season.

Odell Beckham Junior lets entirely too many balls hit his hands that aren’t caught

the 8 play goal line stand sucked, but it was capped off with Freddie somehow deciding to go for it after being stuffed 7 fucking times.

ironically, the Browns getting penalized probably saved the game on the next fourth and goal. They were set to go for it and there was no chance at all it would have worked out.

My problem with Wilks is the lack of adjustments and a lack of varying how he pressures the QB. Basically Wilks defense doesn't change at all thru out the game and team just need to adjust to it once to exploit it. It's a 4-2-5 that is always sending the front 4 to pressure. The safety or linebacker blitz is so rare, teams don't have to worry about it. Most teams will vary 3 to 5 guys pressuring the QB from play to play to keep the o-line guessing and take advantage of inevitable miscommunications that will lead to a miss assignment.

The secondary just seems to play soft cover all the time. Once the opposing team's o-line figure out how to stop our front 4, the QB then has enough time to wait for the soft spots in the secondary to open up.

Also any good running team can exploit this defense. They know Wilks will refuse to put a 3rd linebacker on the field to stop the run. The 5th DB can be missing tackles or getting constantly blocked, and Wilks will just stick with the 4-2-5. We saw that with Whitehead last week where they couldn't set the edge and contain the run so one miss tackle had the RB off to the races down the field.

I'm about to be a fan of no NFL team. I've been a diehard browns supporter but this season has been so draining and embarrassing. We can't even enjoy a nice win, if I can't enjoy a win, I cant enjoy this embarrassment of a franchise.

Personal problem if you can’t enjoy beating the Steelers by 14 when they’re on a 4 game win streak

why am I supposed to be embarrassed by Myles Garrett’s actions? He should be and likely is embarrassed. I am sad he made an awful decision and we will be without him for a while. I am fucking thrilled we are on a 2 game win streak and back in the hunt

This is a rant thread, everyone has personal problems.

Amen.

Don't let the door hit you in the ass if you're ready to write-off a team for one guy's bad reaction.

Lmfao what’s embarrassing is your fair weather fandom.

So this is where you draw the line for embarrassment? Not going 0-16, or hiring a head coach with no past head coaching experience?

You guys are hitting me in a rant thread. They're not serious posts.

So.....nothing for the Mason?

Wait, this has been fair-weather?

I'm fucking pissed. I get Garrett fucked up, but he's getting trashed, along with the Browns, as if this was the worst atrocity ever committed by an athlete. And the smug dickhead who started it all literally gets nothing. The Browns got shafted here, all things considered, by everybody. The media, the league, fans.
I need this team to focus, and take care of business against Miami.
And then come out and murder the Steelers, destroy the entire shithole city of Pittsburg. Because it's Cleveland against the world now. And this is the attitude and the environment that Cleveland fans thrive in. The team, the city, we're gonna be out for blood

Myles Garrett should just have fucked Rudolph's wife/girlfriend or whatever in Rudolph's bed, then hit her with Rudolph's helmet there.

He'd be back for the Steelers rematch if that had happened.
