We don't run with 3 linebackers most of the time, as I believe we prefer to use the "heavy nickel" which incorporates 3 safeties. Fair warning, I could be talking out my ass, but I THINK I'm somewhat correct. I mean, think about it...who is our 3rd linebacker out there? I only ever see Wilson and Schobert.

The other thing is this should have been caught in training camp. Kitchens is to blame for this, no doubt. Baker's never had problems with throwing to anyone before. My biggest concern is we might have picked the wrong coach. Like I said before, I hope i'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one call could have cost us the game because Baker threw that stupid pick afterwards off of Hilliard's hands who didn't catch the bad ball. Did Greg really hold? I heard it was iffy.

The Tampa game was startling to me. Baker was way off, He should have played more the next game. Bad calls are part of the game, the more complaining the more you will see.

The other thing I noticed is that Ken Zampeze was our QB coach last season. Now it's Ryan Lindsey. Perhaps that's what's missing, maybe Ryan just can't get it going. I'll reserve judgement until after the Patriots game. If we get blown out, everyone will be pointing fingers. Also, lets see what Steve Wilkes will do now that we have our secondary back. If we still stink, then we're going nowhere.... fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sekrah Posted October 28, 2019 Report Share Posted October 28, 2019 Changing QB coaches is not the cause of undiscipline and lack of details across the board. Let's stop finding excuses for Freddie. It falls on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is the old "catch all" in many team sports it's easier to fire one coach or manager than get rid of the team or front office........or ownership? Yeah ready, aim, fire away!

Yeah ready, aim, fire away! The front office isn't there to teach details, that's on the head of the coaching staff. There is plenty of talent on this team, plenty. If you want to blame the front office for rolling the dice on a complete bozo, you can do that. But the HC is the reason we look like dogshit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could well be it happens more often than you think when a person who may be good at one level gets promoted to a job he or she just can't handle. If that's the case do they (not we, we don't own or run the team). basically chuck the season now appoint a temporary coach and start the beauty contest for the next BROWNS head coach? Would waiting for the end of the season be a better option or not before this move. Again we don't decide that....but we can voice our opinions.
