Joe Woods: Is the Browns DC as Dumb as he Looks?

 Fans, you need to IGNORE most of Kevin Berry's most recent presser.

Berry is universally positive about every player and position group, and I have learned to ignore him.

No knock intended here, as all GMs are political like that, and what matters is who they draft, sign, release, trade etc:

Everything (especially the Quarterback) is fine always). 

Comrade Stefanski isn't quite as inscrutable as Lord Insideous yet, but his pressers are pretty worthless too.

Blahblah we need to blah blah we didn't blah blah X/Y should be back from injury blahblahblah.

If you are sick of this universal spewtom, and know it's all bullshit, welcome to my club.

As ignorant (or even stupid) as their national critics can be, you should listen to them first, as the Cleveland Browns directly or indirectly pay a lot of local pundit's salaries.

I know this isn't news to most of you since the PD fired Tony Grossi allegedy for critcizing the Browns' Front Office, but there's obviously a lot of positive spinning going on here.

Speaking of Tony Grossi (now with ESPN), I persononally pay extra attention to his Browns' opinions now (even though I still think he's often fulla beans), since I know he's trying to be objective, and is pretty smart...sorta.

I'm getting in the weeds again (sorry) as I've started lecturing you guys about intelligence analysis (grading sources based on--nevermind):

In reality, the majority of us Browns fans have a better handle on the 2020 Browns than Mary Kay (et al) and the national dumb jocks do.

The majority of us wish Baker Mayfield was Pat Mahomes or Joe Burrow, but still think he can keep kicking ass in 2020 and beyond.

(I'm naturally ignoring permabashers and dumb jocks here).

Jimmy Haslam can't get me fired for wondering if DC Joe Woods is screwing up, and I know lots of you (non-spazzes) concur:

Why Sendejo instead if Harrison, or Redwine?

I personally thought I understood why Woods kept using a sub-300 lb 3-tech as the zero-shade (and blabbered to you guys about it), but the Raiders just blasted Ogunjobi out of there and trampled the Browns (*Woods is the COACH, and what I say in his defense doesn't matter*).

In fairness to Joe, he is stuck without a quality nose tackle, and shouldn't be bashed for using his best athletes, and seeking penetration even on run downs.

I just checked the roster: NONE of his Defensive Tackles is over 305 lbs!

I gotta back off on my Woods-bashing here (and go back to several earlier posts):

Joe Woods is like Bud Carson, and all 4 Defensive Linemen attack. 

There is a trade-off for this, and John Gruden exploited it to the max.

My jury is still out on Joe Woods and his scheme, but his fixation with Sendejo and predudice against Redwine is idiotic, so I'm not a big fan...okbye
