Canton Mike Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 2 hours ago, Tour2ma said: Bingo! We came out Week 1 and laid an egg at home.... pure and simple. We stunk up the joint (#2cliche'limit). It was a cold slap in the face... (damn... that's 3).... Week 2 we played a good game on the road against a good team that was weakened by injury in Prime Time... and won. Week 3 we played the defending NFC Champs essentially minus our entire 2ndary... at home... in Prime Time... held our own... but came up short (#4?). Could we have won it? Sure... but we aren't ready to win those kind of games. Going to trot out #5 here... just for Dbone... It's a process people... You have to learn how to win in this league... and you do it by losing... and learning. I think we've already seen learning week to week. And while I do not expect a win in Week 4 (never did) I do expect to see even more learning. It certainly IS a process & I believe "experience is the best teacher". As my Dad would say on every trip we took, "We're on our way, but we ain't there yet kids". Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opal312 Posted September 25, 2019 Report Share Posted September 25, 2019 I don’t see Kitchens as a head coach. I started panicking week one. Baker looks awful! He looks uncomfortable and this will continue unless something drastic changes, they’re still the Browns of old. I’m too old for patience when it comes to the Browns. Kitchens’ press conference after losing to the Rams ( a game they had to win) seemed too negative and he appears stubborn and stupid. I’m going on 65 yrs old and have seen this movie before. I know how it ends😡 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like stupid has company Running the ball with under a minute and 1 timeout is risky because if you don’t score, the next play is rushed with the clock ticking. You would have to have 2 plays called essentially. Which is another discussion. Packers failed. The plays they ran looked Todd Haley-esq. A bunch of button hooks.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour2ma Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 AS for Freddie... (a/k/a meanwhile back at the thread)... Not going to give up on him as yet... Yes, the start has been rough, but you had to know it would be. There's a learning curve for a new HC... and his having a young team to lead doesn't help matters. Remember Bill's first years? He had a reasonably veteran team and probably the most talent to ever be on one staff, and still there were growing pains. I'm not saying Freddie will grow up to be Bill, but he will grow. One last thought... Most here love Dorsey more than I do. Freddie is Dorsey's guy. If you trust his player judgement, give him the benefit of the doubt in Freddie's case as well. You know that behind the scenes Dorsey is working with Freddie to sharpen his game. And if Freddie doesn't work out... we have Wilks in the wings... at least as of now. It's widely viewed that he got a raw deal in AZ that at least rivals the ones Chud and/or Pet got here. Both of which now seem to have ocurred a lifetime ago.

Idk why I was thinking they were used up. Maybe having Chubb in the backfield would’ve been useful but the field was already small enough at the 5. A run to the 2 yard line wouldn’t have done much but burn a timeout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get this Retard mother fucker out of here and hire a real fucking coach.. and get an oline to go with Bito and Tretter.. The rest of the Oline BLOWS And don't forget the former official joining the commentators said if anyone on our staff knew enough to challenge the call/no call on one of the previous plays - it would have only been 3rd and 9 instead of 4th and 9.

More like Gilligan's Island where the same old shit happens year after year with the exact same results, stuck in the same old place on the wrong side of the score. At least they had Ginger.
