2019 Browns Rant Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Can we give Denzel Ward some shit in here? Dude was getting beat by 3rd string receivers repeatedly. Turn the fuck around and find the ball. He looks terribly overrated at the moment and hasn't really looked great (when healthy) the entire year.

Both he and Greedy.

Embarrassing showing from the DBs
 

OH MAN YOU'RE RIGHT.

IT ISN'T THE FACT THAT FREDDIE CAN'T MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO SAVE HIS LIFE OR THE FACT THAT THE STARTING SAFETY, LT WERE BOTH OUT.

NO, NO. IT WAS OVER A SHIRT.

WHAT SAGE WISDOM YOU GIVE US MR. SCHWARTZ!

Seriously. Fucking puritan ass motherfuckers in that shit ass league.
 
We'll get 'em next year. Or next decade.
 

I like how this was motivating.

Outside of perhaps JJ Watt? Felt very limp dick on all sides. Felt not as much that the Steelers "took" it as more so that the Browns didn't make the effort to win it.

Greedy is an absolute bitch when he is asked to get physical. There is a reason this dude fell like he did, he avoids contact at all costs.

This is not true. He's actually been very physical this season. Hell he knocked JuJu out of the game being physical.

All the great coaches do it
 
What's with OBJ not getting targeted like a star though? Baker scared to force it? Freddie's playcalling? OBJ himself? I mean he caught his one pass late and looked towards the Browns sideline and was fired up. We honestly make him look so average out there.
I hope he doesn't get discouraged and try to force his way out because of sorry ass Freddie kitchens

Giving up big plays to a 3rd string QB, and guys who are decidedly not Ju Ju or Antonio Brown.

Shame.

If they tell you it was bulletin board material and that it motivated them, why wouldnt you believe them?

If ex players are telling you it would have bothered them or that it was a bad idea why wouldn’t you believe them?

The shirt was funny. And it was also an absolutely bad idea for the COACH to wear it.

He’ll be fired and you’ll never have to debate it again though. So that’s a positive. What a bummer. I was optimistic about the guy. Didn’t realize discipline would be this much of a problem for him and the team.

I badly missed the boat on what him and Baker were capable of this offseason.
 
Freddie might be more inept than Hue Jackson...
 
As much as Freddie and the offense has been a failure this year, Wilks and the defense has been worse.

The talent level is higher on defense with no real position holes. The offense was set up to fail with the complete lack of starting O-line talent at 3 out of the 5 positions.

Wilks isn't a first time DC and this isn't a learning process for him. This is what he runs and it's been horrible. When Burnett is probably your worse position starter and they fail to stop even 3rd string QBs, it's a pure coaching problem.

I'd fire Wilks today and promote someone to take over for the last 4 games. Maybe it gives us a spark and 9-7 gets us to the playoffs with some luck.

It just didn't feel like one of those games where the Steelers were flying around the ball and were terribly too good. They lost by a TD, yes? In very boring fashion. I'd be more willing to lend credence to "THE SHIRT COST US THE GAME" if we witnessed some sort of big moment/play. It was very...boring.

Kitchens is in over his head though. This isn't up for debate nor do I think anyone here would disagree.

Had this team been able to make adjustments at half, or had their secondary played worth a shit? This isn't even a conversation. We're shrugging our shoulders at it and trying to analyze playoff scenarios.

My thinking was (sadly) similiar. My theory was going along the lines of what we've seen with the Cavs which is..that a mediocre coach can still stumble onto success with the right amount of talent.

Turns out...no. And we've paid the price for it.

Should be a team contending for the AFC, not one that should be lucky to finish .500.
 
Dont even want to defend this team.

They’re not even likeable.

Talk all the shit, don’t even remotely back it up.

Thats the thing with the shirt and some of the othet stuff. Its fine to do it.

But only if you win.

Adjustments most likely could have been made but the root of the problem for the offense is the o-line. We have no good options with this group of o-linemen. The TEs can't cover for how bad this group is. Adding in Carlson and/or Harris to protect just gives Baker less targets and the defense will still find a weak spot in the interior of the o-line to get thru.

We have two good starting o-linemen out of 5 and the announcers noticed that Tretter was limping around fairly early on in the game.

Baker also seems extra uneasy in the pocket when McCray has been in there instead of Robinson. He shouldn't have much trust in this O-linemen but it goes to straight zero when McCray is in there.
