Well, I got to listen to three hours of WKNR on the drive back this afternoon, and the talking heads opinion was- the Browns were pretty nonchalant heading up to and during the game. It's starting to be a trend- we can't put teams away in the 4th quarter.. Chiefs game... Chubb fumbles. Steelers game... Landry who has the best hands on the team- drops two catchable balls and gets stripped at the 11. Yeah if, if.. But change those plays, and the Browns are probably 6-2.Β BTW- it's not over for Cleveland, but the upcoming game against the Bengals is HUGE.Β If this team has playoff aspirations, we can't afford to be 4-5, and 0-2 in the Division.Β It's going to take 6-3 minimum to make a wildcard. As they said on the radio with the loss to the Steelers, the Browns margin for error is approaching zero.Β Β Great catch on the game winning TD- but OTOH, you can't give up a first down when you have the other team backed up first and 20. The "fire Joe Woods" chant is starting to get deafening. Never calling a blitzΒ and having your stud press corners 10 yards off the ball is a losing proposition.Β Β 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not sure if he left his back foot (maybe he did, I genuinely can't tell), but most importantly I don't think he had to (more on that below). Also, he didn't "just get a finger tip on it". He had both hands on it, which is not disputable from that view. I just don't see how you watch that and say it "barely clips his hands" From the route and momentum perspective, I just strongly disagree with you. Candidly, Landry looks to be running a slow route on the first half and has to speed up to get to the spot where the ball is. I'm really not sure anything you can say would change my mind there. Baker put that ball where it needed to be (position wise, not high or low) to give him a chance. On the throw being "high". Yes, it was higher than it should have been. But the twitter verse has a lot of people guestimating that throw was at a height of 6'3'' to 6'5'' on height. I don't necessarily want to quote those people because I'm not going to use sources that may be wrong. But from my untrained eye, that seems about right. So you gotta ask yourself if that's the case, is asking a top flight WR to reach at most 6 inches over his head making him "climb the ladder"? I don't think so.Β Point is, I'm not sure what was going on with Landry today but he was off big time. His other drop in reviewing he also jumped to catch the ball despite it hitting him in the numbers. I'm willing to bet that this play and the 4th and 12 will both be categorized as drops when the stats break. I'm not saying that's the affirmative "I'm right" but I'm not going to let go that Landry should be called on to make that catch. Waiting for the all-22 to drop on game pass before I eviscerate this post.Β Β Just wanted you to know I wasn't being an asshole and ignoring you.
