Yeah we shoulda god a vedderrunn recievverr. Yeah that makes sense. Rent a geezer for a no-shot rebuilding season and kick Norwood or Cooper to the curb. Skip Gordon, right? Brilliant. Fire Heckert-genius!!!
Some of the posters I read either watched the wrong game, or else the wrong team in the right game. I think the majority of Weeden's passes came off play-fakes. It worked brilliantly, too! They were so scared of T-Rich, and then Hardesty, that the pass-rush froze, and some of the recievers were open by a mile.
It will keep working, too, even when defenses expect it. They still don't know it won't be a handoff, and unless they gamble or have a clear view of the exchange or fake they simply can't over-commit to a pass-rush. More experienced DB's react better in coverage, but passrushers can't.
Gordon proved that the last game wasn't a fluke. The Browns now have a blue-chip deep threat/number one--who can catch the damn ball!!!
Dalton did get too much time at times, and did throw for a ton of yards. A big chunk of that came on a huge catch-and-run by that huge tight end, and then after they'd fallen behind and abandoned the (unsuccessful/stuffed) run.
TJ Ward is good, not great. Usama Young is fast and a hitter, but totally blew that tackle, and knocked another tackler off him. Kolonich says he takes bad angles. Maybe Hagg is ready to resume starting. HE can tackle!
Why are you surprised that the young linebackers are so good? I mean, I told you a long time ago, right? Now it's beginning to start to occur to others that maybe Fujita should back up. Welcome to Commonsenseville!
Unfortunately, Fujita's neck injury probably spells the end for him. He's too old to come back from that. And it is unfortunate, because he is a leader and a great teacher for the young guys. Fortunately for me, though, he's a marxist so I don't feel so bad.
Next up: the Colts. Another beatable team! Weeden will be jazzed to face Luck. He thrives on this stuff. I'm sure that secretly he's thinking about showing everybody he's as good or better.
I admit that I don't think so...I'd love to have Luck or RG3 here, but Weeden is for sure in their class. He's not as mobile, but has the arm, touch, and accuracy. He can beat either of them. He HAS beaten both.
How 'bout Hardesty? I told you that if he's healthy he's an excellent back. He just hasn't been able to stay healthy, and has fumbled too much in the past.
I've had TRich's injury. I can see why he was ineffective after it happened, and am impressed by his toughness trying to play with it because it HHUUURRRTTTS!!!
I really hope they don't let him rush back too soon. It absolutely won't be healed in a week and every tackler will target it. Flack jackets restrict movement and don't prevent the ribs from compressing anyway. Don't let him make it worse.
I love the play on which Cameron fell down on purpose in order to get Crocker off him. Ok ok maybe not, but maybe they should fall down on purpose once in awhile!
Anyway, that was great because it showed how quickly Weeden can improvise; how quickly he spotted and attacked the weakness.
The whole team now seems to be thinking a lot less. They've mastered the system and read automaticly.
This offense never hesitates to go for the marbles, either. It's balanced and tough.
They should beat the Colts.
