dawg2fan Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Very true. crowell looks like a pro athlete today. I'll wait for verification from Tour, but I suspect Erving's replacement is much better at run blocking... No, I would say its the pour blocking by the Niner's. The same Crowe (no holes opening) will be back next 3 weeks. And no one on this board is a bigger Browns fan than i am, but we have to face the fact. Of course, the problem will be our Offense line, not Crowe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TypicalBrowns Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Manziel opens things up, he really does. He still needs to learn when to throw it away or he will get killed running around like he does, still though, very good vibes from him being a leader today on the sideline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want to see how they play vs Seattle I hate to say it, but with our Oline, I'd be surprised if we stay within 3 TDs of Seattle. Don't forget, the 49er's are only rushing 3 or 4. Seattle will get pressure with only 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also, Seattle will cover the TEs and RBs a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawg2fan Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Same defense, 49ers stink Couldn't agree more. And I agree that we don't have a QB issue. Honesty, I feel we would be ok if we had more weapons on offense. But tell that to Farmer. And on D, we just need another D Coordinator. O'Neil just plain sucks. Calling a good game today, but we wont finish the season with more than 3 wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calfoxwc Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 Looked to me like it's the first time the defense was playing uplifted and energized, and NOT confused with miscommunications. My guess is, Oneil and Pettine sat down with their defense and asked them how they could fix it. And, it was a great matchup across the board for the Browns. There were times when Manziel had all day to throw, and had no one to throw to. Would have been better to have gone to this game, ...but no, I went to the cincy debacle. These players played excited, and just looked like they were all on the same page. Odd, I didn't see..any duct tape on Oneil's mouth... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 Honestly that douchebag above would find something wrong with Manziel even if he went 50/50 with 10 TDs. There's no point in even talking about it. The truth is the truth regardless of the source. Very true. crowell looks like a pro athlete today. I'll wait for verification from Tour, but I suspect Erving's replacement is much better at run blocking... I may actually grade this week, if I have time. My working theory is that we reverted to more of a power run scheme this week and it produced honest to God holes... near where they were supposed to be.

beare Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 im not sure if he is the answer but fact is he played a great game today. Far as saying he did it against a bad team well remember we have lost to some bad teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a chance to see the tape when I got home late yesterday. My first thought was, "Tour's got to grade this!" They looked far more coordinated than I have seen them this whole year. The same can be said for the whole defense. I don't care that SF is not great, I saw fire, enthusiasm and people giving everything they had to take their part of the responsibility in this full team effort.

TexasAg1969 Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Nice....thats a plus 1 for our coaching staff.... Yep, lot of praise for the OL as well. And this particular comment about JM gave me deja vu because I said it last year here, "He's dangerous throwing downfield when the receivers do a good job getting open when he starts to scramble." I had said on here that as receivers get used to him extending plays they will begin to find ways to get open. A prime example was the cooperation between JM and Barnidge on a right side scramble when Barnidge got behind the defender and JM pointed for him to continue going longer as he threw him open even more. That is the same chemistry he developed with Evans and bodes well for both in the future. I think he has it with Benjamin as well. I still agree the first option is to go through all the progressions first and take off when nothing develops. But it's good to see when receivers and QB are on the same scramble page as well when it becomes the last resort. Now if he can just learn to throw it away when that fails as well. Then you have a complete dual threat QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Same chemistry Hoyer developed... I thought JM had shown "throw it away" progress this year until SF. But lesson reinforced... no harm move along... if ESPN will let us. I swear the lead "game highlight" in every CLE/SF replay package was that play... usually followed by a scramble run... usually followed by the TD to Barn. One thing did precede the INT, however... "the autograph". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
