I don't think it's any surprise that with a rookie QB they wouldn't be taking chances down the field regularly. Also, who exactly was Oakland supposed to throw the ball downfield to last year?
Oh ok. That was a useful perspective on what our offense will most likely look like under Flip, although I didn't think he called plays last year?
You left out the part about Connor Shaw having Surgery.Per the Browns beat:
- Manziel underwent an MRI that showed no structural damage
- The Browns are considering adding another QB.
Having to impress people with what can only be described as a mediocre arm can't be easy on the ligaments.
Hoyer probably didn't have to do TOO much to win this competition:
The Battle between Tom Brady back ups can get intense.
Nothing compared to "tennis elbow." That shit is utterly debilitating.
You have some problems with the time line b00bie. First Hoyer was given the job by the coaching staff. Then Mallet gave a press conference that was described as "white knuckled". The next day Mallet "overslept."
So he Johnny really hurt or is he covering up for shortcomings that he doesn't want exposed by having to face a first team defense?
Just seems odd. Like how he was too hurt to play the rest of the Carolina game and the following week after getting tackled on that keeper.
