Before I say anything else, I need to ask Hue Jackson why Kenny Britt keeps starting, and Jordan Leslie is being screwed. Is this some personal grudge?
Because it almost certainly cost you this game. All of us "know-nothings" have seen enough of Leslie to know that he probably would have caught two Britt and at least one Ricardo Louis drops. He reached behind him throughout preseason to snag inaccurate passes.
We ignorant masses know when we're surprised that player A caught a pass, or that player B did not. For us, this is pretty simple. We kinda prefer the guy who catches the goddamn pass over the guy who drops it, ok?
This is personal, right? Jordan looks like somebody you really hate, right? Or you just...well just don't like him?
Hue, you really need to fix that glitch that keeps returning my messages "could not be delivered", but maybe you'll be getting all this anyway, since you probably read Pokorney's stuff, and he's my sock-puppet.
Didn't you want to win this game? If so, why did you stick with an older guy who has proven himself (as unreliable)? And beyond that, why was it anybody but Leslie before and after his one-handed catch that put you on the goal line? Normally, you bench a player for doing something wrong.
In addition to his obvious reliability, how can you place receivers who haven't even been with the team for two weeks ahead of a guy Kizer worked with throughout preseason? Do you have Alzeimers or something?
You say "We'll look at the tape" each week when you get tough questions. This is great! Since you've decided to ignore Leslie already, you only have one play to fast-forward through (while averting your eyes). If you had let Leslie play more, you might have a hard time explaining why you hate him.
Not that this bothers me or anything.
Except this: "the Browns need help at wide receiver". I feel for ya, Jordan. They won't give you a chance, and here are these people saying this stuff, like you don't even exist. They're already trying to get you off the roster again!
Oh stop it Mary Kay describes this roster as lacking talent. I don't need to go over this again, do I? She was half of the previous link that dumped all over Jordan Leslie AND Coates and Kasen Williams.
Does anybody out there hear me? Gordan Leslie is my perfect example of this kind of bizzarre, irrational analysis:
He does all this great stuff, right in front of everybody. He PROVES himself. Outperforms every other wide receiver on the roster.
Doesn't matter. Never happened. The Browns need help at wide receiver. I'm astonished that Jordan Leslie hasn't gone postal yet...I'm sorry I can't deal with this talk amongst yourselves
Update: my God read this! This article actually cites wr-qb chemistry as one of Kizer's big issues, and specifies an incompletion to Kasen Williams (to be clear I like Kasen too).
You see Kasen has only been here for two weeks. See where I'm going here? Jordan must be banging his head on the wall ya know? It's like you "lost" your keys, and search your house for two hours, except your keys are on the counter next to the garage entrance, and you LOOKED RIGHT AT THEM SIX OR SEVEN TIMES.
PLEASE Hue, please: Cancel the call to the locksmith. Look down...a little to the left, next to the phone charger. See it? Right in fkng front of you?
Not that I'm bothered by this or anything.
Ah Dudovich to the rescue: Leslie was on the field for 21 snaps, while the ball-droppers got 3 times as many. I get it now: Higgins is much more experienced at not getting open, and Louis and Britt have more experience dropping passes.
I do need to mention here that one of the issues here is that despite his SPEED, for some reason throughout preseason Leslie ran almost exclusively short routes...which that's fine if you're trying to hone those skills, or you're better than everybody else at it, or...
No I'm sorry I can't figure this out I mean wtf🤔
