When the Browns sent 5 men or more this year, the pressure rate increase was marginal at best. So if my return on investment isn't worth it, then I'm kind of fucked... no? Absolutely... but the less frequent the blitz the more effective it should be... element of surprise and all that. But surprise is simply not enough. You've got to disguise and design to generate a free runner... and that free runner has to be fast, yet come under control. Excepting maybe Phillips, that combo is not in our LB room and excepting Ward, Harrison and maybe Mitchell, it is not in our 2ndary either. Not to mention that you'd prefer not to blitz one of your best cover guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvin the Martian Posted January 19, 2021 Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 Given the defensive personnel, I do not think any coordinator could make this defense great. We need to upgrade the linebackers and Sendejo at a minimum 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't get over the 4th down numbers, the 3rd and 10 against McSorely, and the 3rd and longs with Henne. I'm not sure he has what it takes. If we believe we can improve upon Joe Woods, then I am sure we will, but as has been known since before our game one kickoff, we were "making do" on our D-side this season. The real question is what path did our D follow threw this season? Did it improve or did it decline? The answers are made more difficult to determine by Covid atop the usual injury impacts, but I don't think they are unknowable. I'm satisfied that the improvement was there. So personally I have no issue with us seeing what Woods can do with more tools and a full TC and preseason to learn what his squad can and cannot do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well... since you said I was right about something... now you have my attention. truth was I did not know what vasovagal (syncope) was. Now I do... So now the question is what prompted it? Only thing I know is Mahommes looked "scared" as his head was approaching the ground. Have to add that does not seem consistent with all the times I've seen him take hits. Then again he does not take them very often... minds eye is now replaying a lot of slides and scampers OB. So I guess it is possible that this time he knew he was not in control of what was coming at him... and it triggered the reaction. At any rate it's an interesting speculation that I am sure teams across the league will be considering. Not that a QB who doesn't like to be hit is anything new.

Dutch Oven Posted January 19, 2021 Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 I still contend that somehow the oxygen got cut off to his brain, from the tackle around his neck, and that is what caused him to black out while attempting to stand. And fuck Travis Kelce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder those 30-something riders get pissed. Knee was down... ground knocked the ball loose momentarily and Mahommes reflexively pulled it back to him. Last part was actually quite impressive considering the stars he was seeing at that moment. Crazy that a guy that everyone claims is so good damn near knocked himself out of the game trying to slide... Mahomes is good QB without a doubt but I'd take Baker Mayfield over him everyday of the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nero Posted January 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 If it was vasovagal, I'd say he would have been KO'd. My sister had one when my brother in law was dry needling her. She said "I'm not OK" and a milisecond later she was switched off as a computer. Instant KO. We had to run to hold her because she almost hits badly with a table. No way Mahomes doesn't lose conscience even for a second, and then isn't able to return for 2 quarters. My sister in half an hour was back to nromal and had it way worse. Sutterer explaination that it is a concussion produced by a fast neck movement sounds more legit to me, looking at the reaction of the left side of his body.

The one serious one I witnessed was after someone had an IV put in, eyes rolled back of head and like passed out and whole body tensed up. Somewhat like a seizure, without the shake.

Pro athletes + adrenaline maybe it didn't take him out for that reason? He went into protocol, and a vasovagal syncop I'd say is not like a muscle injury that the adrenaline and energy can work around. It is closer to a suckerpunch in the liver that turns you off. What Mahomes had was closer to a KO by a hook to the head: fast neck movement, resulting in a self defense ('fencing') position reaction by the body. I think that one way or another they'll work around the concussion protocol so the NFL playoffs don't go Mahomes-less. Maybe the vasovagal historyline is there for that reason. First one to mention it was a KC journalist and even Rapaport was surprised by that because he knew nothing... PS: my English vocabulary is lacking at medicine+boxing so I hope I explained myself.

BrownsfaninPa Posted January 19, 2021 Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 i'm very happy the Browns had a winning season, long over due. And the Chiefs game was looking to be a blowout until P. Mahomes was declared out for the game. Then we got robbed on the No Helmet to helmet contact hit at the one yard line that caused a fumble that resulted a touchback and gave the ball back to the Chiefs at the 20. TOTALLY got cheated. We could have taken the lead with a possible TD and may have won the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The neck goes down fast because as Wilson is tackling him, Mahomes is going down thus the defenders arm holds him around the neck and is going down fast, Mack Wilson is noy a tiny guy. It's similar to having a car accident with the seat belt on, the difference being you have a NFL linebacker's arm around your neck...

SdBacker80 Posted January 19, 2021 Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 I thought he got choked out just a tad myself. And you would have wobbly knees after that too. I’ve seen this in wrestling (not the fake stuff) from time to time. If you are gasping for air or slightly winded it doesn’t take that much time to have an arm or hand slapped around your neck or in the right spot.

He had to fully extend to have a chance with his DB jacket on. I think the ball grazed the defender’s hand or came really really close. Some props to Njoku too who seemed to play the part of TE 1 today. he had some nice catches and he actually made some nice blocks.....
