The Gipper Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 A couple or so observations: A, It seems to me that the Browns LBs have done the best job so far...in preseason/vs. Pitt. Wonder why they would have had such a hard time of it yesterday. B. If Britt was only 3rd worst on the team in PFF grade...who the hell was below him? Coleman maybe with his -0- catches in 5 targets? (would a broken hand have had to do with that?) C. Looks like Tretter may have rebounded from a so so performance vs. the Squibs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumby73 Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 I believe JT was in the high 80's PFF score week 1?..PFF scores tells JT nothing/nor me when he/we already know his competition..Suggs earned JT's attention year one in league.. Per JT, that has not changed..Coleman/Johnson..HA!! that's not even close to Conklin in anybodies opinion..Can't believe the amount of true browns fans that would even phat-hum the idea of Trading JT now..What other great HOF LT you trading For? What playoff team late pick is worth JT? Your now in Njoku & Peppers Talent level..Go ahead take another swing at the JT pinata.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canton Dawg Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 TOP 5 GRADES: CB Jason McCourty, 87.8 overall grade CB Jamar Taylor, 86.5 overall grade C JC Tretter, 83.4 overall grade G Joel Bitonio, 82.7 overall grade T Joe Thomas, 80.8 overall grade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canton Dawg Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 LB CHRISTIAN KIRKSEY, 23.1 OVERALL, LB JAMIE COLLINS, 38.7 OVERALL AND LB JOE SCHOBERT, 40.7 OVERALL While the Browns secondary actually played fairly solid, and their defensive line was up and down, it was the inside linebacker trio of Kirksey, Collins and Schobert that really struggled for the Browns in this game. Flacco picked on them nearly exclusively in the pass game, working his receiver and tight end matchups any chance he could against them. The three combined to allowed 17 catches on 17 targets for 159 yards and a touchdown. They each missed a tackle and really struggled to escape blocks at the second level in the run game. None of them finished with a run defense grade above 40.0 on the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Oven Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Regardless who the DC is, or who is playing LB or safety, the one constant besides losing for the Browns since '99 has been their inability to cover TEs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutch Oven Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Is Peppers even able to be graded? I mean Williams has him lining up in another zip code relative to the line of scrimmage. If Peppers played that far off the ball in college he could probably be considered for a red-shirt season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canton Dawg Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 With the safeties playing that far off the LOS, that gave a lot of open real estate for the Rat's TE's to roam. Their OC exploited that big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like Williams thinks its 1935 and is expecting quick kicks before fourth down. You draft Peppers because he's a versatile playmaker and relegate him to being the goalie for soccer game being played by 5 year olds.. I'm almost surprised not to see Peppers kicking his mitt and picking dandelions like his name is Timmy Lupus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was known for playing closer to the LOS than a lot of safeties. A big hitter. So what do we do? We play him in punt formation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safeties somewhat sort of defending the deep ball had no bearing on our LB's being completely incompetent yesterday.. TE's were open because LB's couldn't stay with, period. Flacco was 17-17 when targeting the 3 Ravens TE's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't fully understand what measureables go into a pff ranking, but he was top 5 in whatever those were. Every team gets their Cal Ripken, and you just deal with it and hope for the best when shit happens. Bengals got Anthony Munoz. Reds got Barry Larkin. Yankees got Jeter. Lakers got Kobe. Yadda yadda... Like a wise and perverted man once said, just let it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was one end zone play where they just went together, the other ratbird wr picked off the defender... touchdown. You let the Browns do that, they will call it every time. Seen this with the ratbirds and squealers often. Makes money for certain refs maybe. Something stinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
