We have to take care of business against the Cardinals, the way I see it, nothing's over for us YET. We beat AZ and we're 3-5, then a back to back week of Division Rivals in Cincy and PIT, if we can get our shit together and minimize the self inflicted wounds... we can beat anybody in the NFL. It's just for us the flags and injuries all seem to come at the most inopportune of times in games and in seasons. We can crawl out of hell(2-5) with a 3 game win streak- sending us into the BYE at a record of 5-5 and 3-0 in the AFCN! That is miles from where we are now, but the journey of a thousand miles starts with the first few steps.

 

 

 

1)Step 1- Protect the QB.

- The offensive line needs to get mean. They are being beaten and abused. Somebody needs to hit the Defense! The Defenses we are playing are getting 'juiced' all game because they are doing all the hitting. Our WRS aren't hitting anybody, our runningbacks can barley get a running start before they are encased at the LOS... Who's hitting the D? They get stronger every play we let them hit us like bitches. Nobody retaliates, nobody. The Offensive line needs to personally deliver these hits. Pancake motherfuckers and beat the fuck out the D line and when they get the chance they need to hit some linebackers. Put them in pain and then we'll start to see how much they like to tee-off on our guys...

 

2)Play football.

-When they think we are going to run, pass. When they think we are going to pass, run. Mix it up. Put Johnny in there once in a while to keep the D honest. Fuck with their minds. Don't get predictable.

 

-The Defense needs to move Shelton around. Put him in different parts of the line and once you find the weakness in the offensive line- attack it. Attack it. Attack it! Put Mingo on Man coverage with the RB, shadow him. Where ever the RB goes Mingo goes. DBs press the WRs at the line hold the play long enough to let the DL/LBs get to the QB. Play the run on the way to the QB.

 

 

3)Don't let flags and the refs beat us.

-Make the team we are facing EARN a win. Too often, we lose because of bad calls or phantom penalties. Give no reason that they could call that holding. Give no reason they can call pass interference on you for putting your arm on them. I know a lot of the time the other team is blatantly holding or chop blocking or using illegal pick plays against us. The refs will call what they call, fuck em, don't give them a reason to pull back a 1st down, an awesome punt return or a stop on third-down. These 'self-inflicted' wounds are costing us games. Make the other team earn it... and I don't think they can. Our worst enemy is ourselves.

 

 

4)Get a win.

-This week is the tipping point. We cannot go 2-6.

 

 

Being 3-5 with division games coming back to back, a Thursday Night game at that, does wonders for a teams confidence. If they lose this week and things fall apart against those other 2 teams... being 2-8 going into a BYE is not something that I could handle. Now, in the other reality, The Browns find a way to put together two halves of a game. They play for each other, with passion and with discipline and they find ways win!
