Every week it's something with this guy. And now this shoe thing. If he was on another team, i would think this was a move by a guy who wants to be traded to the Patriots, a 'come get me pleaaassseeee' move. But im not so that can't be it, just a spur of the moment show of admiration for a great QB from a scholar of the game.
 
He has missed a good number of catches that a guy making his kind of money shouldn't be missing and catches you'd rarely expect Julio Jones or Antonio Brown to miss.

He's supposed to be the teams best offensive player. As of right now thats easily Chubb.

You half wonder if the Browns should just try and play more of a ball control game. Don't push the ball down the field often. Focus on running the ball, running the clock, and short, quick slants. Just forget about trying to find big plays with Odell. Because currently, Chubb is the strength of the offense, not Odell.

You raise your floor playing that game but substantially lower your ceiling. That’s basically trying to be the Bears with Trubisky with a much worse defense (but a much better RB).

To be an actual threat and not just the Bears you have to have Baker figure it out and pulling the plug and turning him into a game manager isn’t going to get you there.

Also if you do start playing that game I wouldn’t be expecting the same production from Chubb.Chubb has definitely been our best offensive player, but teams still aren’t stacking the box against us.

Chubb faces an 8+ man box 12.7% of the time, 9th lowest amongst RBs with at least 50 carries.

For comparison 7 RBs face a stacked box more than 30%of the time and 16 more than 20% of the time. If we switch to thatgame manager style offense teams would start creeping more guys towards the LOS and focusing more on stopping the run
 
Update on the trade. (From Terry Pluto)

A: Profootballfocus (PFF) rates Peppers 44th out of 50 starting safeties. He leads all safeties with 12 missed tackles. The New York Post had a positive story about Peppers, pointing out some good moments he’s had, but he’s been up and down. The Giants used the draft pick on Clemson defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence. PFF rates him as the NFL’s top defensive rookie. Hard to believe he’s better than Nick Bosa, but he’s playing well

As long as OBJ hangs in there as a good sport through this tough spell, we'll be OK once the team pulls out of this. On the other hand, if his attitude curdles like sour milk, there's going to be bad feelings all around for a long time. Jarvis Landry, you are our only hope!
 
Wonder what percentage we roll out run v pass in the first series. Betcha it is "skewed"

Nothing of note, if you’ve been following the team going from preseason divisional favorites and Odell being hailed as the second coming, to the 2-5 dumpster fire we see today as we argue about Odell giving Brady a pair of goat shoes after being clobbered by the patriots.

The sad part about OBJ is seeing yesterday, just how terrifying he is in the open field.

He's dropped some passes but we have also failed miserably scheming to get him the ball with room to run.

Can kind of sense the frustration is bubbling over......just with a mix of bad scheme and sub par QB play.

He seemingly has gone from one poor situation to another......the only difference is playing with Landry. Blah.
