TheBestPlayersPlay Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 It's the first preseason game ....relax. J. Davis looked good Veikune looked good, relentless Alex Hall looked good, explosive Bowens looked good Rubin looked good BQ looked good Furrey looked very good, exactly what BQ needs to sustain drives Francies looks like a keeper Titus Brown also looking good E Wright not bad Cribbs looks like a threat, needs ball more In summary, not all is doom and gloom. I personally am excited to see the team progress through the preseason ....and surprise everyone come the regular seaon. Scoreboard doesn't mean a lick in preseason imo.

dawgpound3 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 At least there's someone with optimism. Positives Quinn looked solid Furrey filled the role JJ filled back in 07 Rubin looked excellent Cribbs looked good We held the team to 17 points The brown pants Negatives We didn't score a touchdown Braylon Edwards( ) We lost again, with the brown pants... DA was just being a DA(DUMB ASS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuramasaV1.0 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I was only able to watch the last drive at the end of the first half, but Quinn did look pretty good. We should really have scored on both of those drives. I expect Mangini to be all over the team for the penalties and stupid mistakes being made. We were killed in the running game, but wasn't Rodgers missing from the game tonight? I have to believe that if he were around the Green Bay QBs wouldn't have had 5+ seconds to throw the ball, or quite as many gaps for the RBs to hit.

RestinPeace Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 The Browns simply don't have much talent. If Mangini can get this team to 5 wins, he had a successfull season. Next year, hopefully into the 7-9 range. If Brady turns out better than I think, everything speeds up a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmac12 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Didn't get to see the game and I know that drops of BQ passes mean more than drops of DA passes and I would not even venture to say that DA did anything being that he had a 0.0 rating. But, I find it hard to say that a Qb with a 43 rating did good. Maybe he would have had a 80 rating if BE does not drop the ball but come on folks as many here have stated all QB have dropped balls. And if it was DA with the 43 rating you would all rag on him like there was no tomorrow no matter what the reason. Now 43 is allot better than 0.0. So I would not say BQ looked good, I would say he looked less terrible than DA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmac12 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I said in one of the posts that I was lookign forward to seeing the highlights of the pick and the command of the game. I was just going by the stats. And by the stats I would say that BQ had a better game, after all how can anybody have anything positive to say about a QB with a 0.0 rating? Obviously BQ looked the best of the 3 QBs and I would say that DA must had looked the worst. I am just saying that no Qb with a 43 rating could have looked that good, except that you are comparing him to a QB with a 0.0 rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alendor Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 he looked better than a 43. the only reason his rating was bad was because of that int. other than that he looked good the rest of the game. the int, while a bad move, wasn't as costly as the DA int.

Alendor Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 the DA int turned into a TD I believe, at the very least ate up alot of clock in their favor, the other one was trying to get a TD before the half ended. theres no guarentee that we would have scored a TD had the pass just been incomplete. hence not as costly. kinda like throwing a hail mary that gets intercepted at the end of the game or half. neither one was smart tho, and BQ shoulda put it in, and would have if that wasn't edwards at WR. robo woulda caught that no problem.

Vegasdogg Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Come on, even if you're the more optimistic fan - today was a perfect excuse for suckage. We can't score a TD? We traded a 1st round pick for 0 TD's? Hell I'd rather go back in time for the 1st round pick we were offered and play the season with DA. 0 TD's and 4 INT's? Yeah I am really happy we chose - AGAIN - a first time OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timugen Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 A couple things to keep in mind regarding the QB ratings..... DA threw only 2 passes. One probably should have been picked and the other was. BQ played very well except for one pass that got picked in the endzone. Either one of these guys would have higher QB ratings over a full game, unless you assume that DA is gonna throw a pick every pass attempt, or that BQ is gonna get picked on every trip in the red zone. They each had only 2 series, so with such a limited sample size that makes the QBR statistic highly volatile as a gauge of actual performance. The more telling thing is that the team drove the field with one QB, but couldn't even manage a flippin' 1st down with the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aloysius Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Hood didnt look so bad either... On the play in which DB Brandon Anderson hit Matt Flynn, receiver Ruvell Martin beat Hood badly with a double move. Were it not for the QB hit, Martin would have scored a touchdown. That, to me, was a sign that Hood shouldn't be playing outside. He's more a nickel corner, and I think that showed tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aloysius Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 J. Davis looked good He got beat twice in blitz pickup, allowing Will Blackmon to strip the ball and Desmond Bishop to come in & sack Ratliff. He almost did something on that screen play, but he only ended up getting six yards. Overall, it wasn't a great day for Davis. Bowens looked good I think you mean Mosley, who was phenomenal. Bowens didn't play. Titus Brown also looking good To be honest, I wasn't impressed with anything he did tonight. Marcus Benard had a much better game.

Mr. T Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 It's the first preseason game ....relax. J. Davis looked good Veikune looked good, relentless Alex Hall looked good, explosive Bowens looked good Rubin looked good BQ looked good Furrey looked very good, exactly what BQ needs to sustain drives Francies looks like a keeper Titus Brown also looking good E Wright not bad Sucked, you cannot tackle from your knees or you loose all your strength to bring anyone down. Cribbs looks like a threat, needs ball more Is only a threat if you line him up at HB, among KR Dawson ? how do you miss on a 41 yard field goal attempt? In summary, not all is doom and gloom. I personally am excited to see the team progress through the preseason ....and surprise everyone come the regular seaon. Scoreboard doesn't mean a lick in preseason imo.
