Super Bowl LVI - Ohio vs Odell

[Real Deal]

Everybody believes that they are being realistic, and that those with a different opinion are either too optimistic, or too pessimistic.

I get it, everybody thought he'd be what Kyler Murray is, but we have Baker Mayfield. A middle of the pack QB whom had an awesome rookie year, a good 3rd year, and a I don't know what to call it 4th year thus far.

An elite QB can make a bad team elite quickly. That's why they get paid the big bucks.

Yeah but we are talking about the Bengals right now

Kyler Murray....

Who's he been throwing to, btw?

 

[Chris]

Depending on health I still favor us against the Bengals. I know I’m probably not allowed to say that on a browns board with all the rational realists running around

Chubb and Mayfield need to be up and running

I agree, but like you said, gotta be healthy

 

[Real Deal]

Kyler Murray....

A couple older WRs who's benefiting off a great QB keeping plays alive and reading the field at an all pro level. And he's making guys like Kirk be considered reliable.

We're not saying the Browns offense is the reason why Baker is middle of the pack are we? I'll be damned if I give him that excuse.

 

[The Wizard of Moz]

Wentz has a lot of plays where if his Jersey said “Weeden” I’d believe it

You mean the Conference-leading Bengals that just dropped a 40-piece on the Ravens?

That's all, huh?

DeAndre Hopkins was First Team All-Pro for the three seasons immediately prior to playing with Murray. If you choose to imply that he was just a washed up bum that Murray just happened to make look good...that's up to you.

 

[The Wizard of Moz]

It’s a weird league man. The Bengals also lost to Fields/Dalton, were a Cook fumble away from losing to the Vikings, and were in a dog fight with a then winless jax at home on TNF where the teams looked pretty evenly matched

obviously today was a huge statement win, but like… this was also by far their most impressive week of the season so of course it’s now going to be the baseline they’re graded on

when judging other teams it is always the max, but when it comes to judging the browns we love to look at the min.

 

[Real Deal]

Damn, so only if Baker had a Chase or Hopkins then he'd be right up there with the big boys. But an extreme portion of our salary goes to pass catchers. Shame on you Berry. Think I should take him off my avatar right now.

 

[2 For The Brew]

As of this moment the Bengals sit in the #1 seed while the Chiefs and Steelers would be out. Very early of course but a wild season so far.

 

[The Wizard of Moz]

And legitimately, the 3 touchdowns today for Burrow were throws that any QB playing in the NFL should be expected to make. People are dunking for Burrow on 2 wide open touchdowns to a TE and a 10 yard slant that Chase took 70 more yards

Seriously people got on Baker for the Njoku touchdown being nothing special but then when Burrow or Herbert hits wide open guys we just look at counting stats

 

[The Wizard of Moz]

the touchdowns are at
2:13
5:32
6:29

the first throw I will give him as there are nfl QBs who miss that throw though he had 5+ yards of separation to work with

the second one the announcer even said “wide open”

and the third one was just Chase being Chase

8:14 for a brutal red zone interception

specifically which of these passes were Joe Burrow being an elite QB

And there's a QB in this commercial that has missed some very "gimme" touchdowns this year...

It is always good when Chubb is up
