Orion Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 The Saints come marchin' in for the 4th game of the 2022 preseason of the 2023 season. (umm...we have a 1% chance of making the playoffs) The Saints appear to throw the ball pretty well...although by the numbers we're equal to the task as a pass defense. They don't run the ball particularly well but then neither of us defends the run well either. The Saints are good against the pass and are pretty good at pressuring the QB. It comes down to whether our running game can be successful, which it's been tough sledding lately (perhaps we get our #2 center back for the game), and how well our defense does. We seem to have days where we can make the worst running team look like world beaters. I'm again expecting mediocre play from our QB as that's the Saint's strength, but perhaps selling out to stop Chubb can make some space for the passing game. We'll see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Oven Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 We missed out in a snow game with the Bills game getting moved to Detroit. That won't happen Saturday. High temp in the low teens, with wind gusts up to 50 mph. 3-7 inches of snow possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob806 Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 Yeah if the weather forecast holds true both teams will alter game plans. So ultimately it could come down to which team tackles better or who makes the fatal mistake. Browns have a good history vs the Saints, let's hope that continues.

Not a Kamara game and that’s good and bad. Ingram is out…that’s good I fully expect a heavy dose of Taysom Hill running into a stacked box and pushing piles. Not exactly something we should look forward to given our front problems. I don’t expect Andy Dalton to fire any bullets in the wind with his noodle arm either…he’s become a game manager check down QB in good conditions. We need to sell out on Taysom Hill and tackle him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well pull out all the stops Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought..... Oh god how old fashioned is that ? Thigh pads, I had them in my first uniform in fifth grade. Along with hip pads, knee pads and a single bar helmet. Old fashioned but they did serve a purpose ..... even if a bunch of 5th and 6th graders pads kept falling out. Oh and high top shoes, my first spikes were in high school with a "Lou Groza style" square toed high top kicking shoe. Then true or not starting in high school, college and for sure pros players thought that they could run slightly cut time off their 40 and 100 yard times. Then came taping everything like shoes, pads, similar reasons. Now would the pads actually work now ? Yes or no ? My guess is yes. So will they ?

We'll be solid brown no doubt. Me too! It's gonna be a who has the better fundamentals day with the blocking, tacking and ball security. And since you live somewhere in the vicinity of the NE Patriots - you probably remember the day the Browns beat NE with heavy doses of Peyton Hillis. Brian Baldinger did a great feature after the game called Smashing Pumpkins that turned out to be a clinic on how to run the ball down the esophagus of a defense (and not just any defense - a Bill Belichick Defense). They were supposed to be good against the run too. All his replays showed a hat on a hat where everyone in the box got blocked in a great version of smash-mouth football. The beneficiary of the victory over a Tom Brady led football team was... Colt McCoy. Let's confuse the Holiday here a little with a return to that Smashing Pumpkins mentality and break out the bright orange uniforms. You want ugly folks? We got it covered! Adding meatball to spaghetti, if there is a blizzard - orange might be the easiest color to see out there. Stay tuned... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob806 Posted December 24, 2022 Report Share Posted December 24, 2022 I'm as old school as anybody, but I actually prefer it when the Browns wear the brown tops. Yeah, I realize the Browns were dominant in white from 1946-64. The main reason is to me they look better, & I hate seeing division rivals wear their home colors in our stadium. This is a big game for CLE. Show us you still care, kick the Saints' a$$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted December 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2022 I like the brown tops....with white numbers. I hate the solid, no stripe, brown pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
