SdBacker80 Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 12 hours ago, Vagitron said: Im a Steeler fan, die hard but this take is pretty damn naive. You don't fear Ben? does it look like he lost a step? Prior to avulsing the tendons off his damn elbow he threw for 5000 yards, with a fucked up elbow. He's now PAIN FREE for the first time in 14 years and you are just like "cool, it's just ben" lol I know you all get mega hyped when the Browns don't look like a dumpster fire but good lord this is naive. I expect a good game but to say you "dont fear ben, and you don't fear our offensive weapons" means one thing to me. You've not been paying attention. We just had a rookie score 4 td's last week, he should have had 5. He's 6'4, 225 and runs a 4.42 He's not even the first or second option normally. Tyson Alualu who is our current nose, when he's on the field opposing offenses are averaging 0.78 yards per carry, that is an actual stat. He's bookended by Cam Heyward and Stephon Tuitt. Who are you pushing around again? Fitzpatrick isn't getting the eye popping stats because teams are literally NOT throwing at him. I'm sure it's a stat that can be dug up but they are avoiding his side of the field almost completely. I'm glad you like your chances but you all, especially with the injuries do not match up well. Let’s talk football... Fitzpatrick: Observation: I saw some good form tackling from Fitzpatrick on that TD run where he bounced off the back. It ain’t gonna be easier Sunday. Fact: He’s credited for giving up 9 receptions on 12 attempts. Conjecture: This probably doesn’t account for times when he plays centerfield and he has a zone he should be in. Facts:No INTs, No FF, No Fumble Recoveries, No PDs. Alualu: I’m not discrediting Alualu. He’s going against an interior that’s playing well (from what we have observed and from PFF scores and our rush yards) so yes the key is to move him off the spot in the 3-4 scheme. We’ve done well at the point of attack this season against some good fronts. Ben R.: I think you have heard multiple takes on here regarding your offense. If you think this is 2009 and Ben is Ben go ahead- have at it. I actually give your play caller a lot of credit for adapting and not being a stubborn fool and trying for Ben to be young Ben. It’s QB friendly offense (much like ours) don’t be offended. Your guy and our guy - game managers and honestly that’s not necessarily a bad thing but it certainly helps an opposing team game plan a little more. It’s hard to game plan for what you face in Baltimore. The little dig on Browns being mega hyped now. The same can be said about Claypool. Let’s put the brakes on both hype trains and just see how Sunday unfolds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per the play by play, only 4 were described as "Deep" Of his completions......19 of them were for single digit yards. 9 or less.....so not really much YAC even on these. 9 of his completions were between 11 and 17 yards. 3 were for over 20 yards...including a couple for the long TDs. What I don't know, and don't know where to get it, is how much of the yardage in that game by the Steelers was YAC. But when only 3 pass plays went for over 20 yards YAC may not have been a huge factor. https://www.espn.com/nfl/playbyplay?gameId=401220175 Gipper- I'll let you look up how many times any team throws "deep routes". My guess is it's not a lot. What I'm far more worried about is one of the plays Claypool scored a TD on a swing pass, and the Steers had the play set up with three wrs out in front blocking for him. I'm sure the Browns DC duly noted it, and better have a defensive answer for it... 16 hours ago, The Gipper said: Are Gorka and DieHard the same person? Dutch directs a comment at Gorka, and DieHard responds taking offense. So, are they the same guy? AFAIK, they're not.

Let’s put the brakes on both hype trains and just see how Sunday unfolds And how the league determines credited targets has always been weird, teams aren't throwing at Fitzpatrick. He fucked up on that tackle because he thought he could shoulder him down. He very clearly should have wrapped up but that's is neither here nor there as he has never had an issue with tackling. A moot point to the max. No one has moved Alualu to this point and once again he's bookended up two extremely good defensive ends. You aren't pushing them around, I don't believe I've ever seen any of them get really pushed around. He's also done more than well the stat I listed is real, it's less than a yard per carry when he's on the field. Now as far as Ben is concerned and I know i mentioned this before, he was out almost all of last year. How many yards did he throw the year prior? I'm not sure why some don't seem to understand what an avulsed tendon is but it's pretty damn bad and that surgery by all intents and purposes went very well. He's working through his throws without having to compensate for pain and even in training camp receivers were talking about the ball "whistling". Ben does not have an issue with arm strength and he's the same QB he's been for a while. He hasn't lost it like Brees or Brady. I only mentioned claypool because he went off but i'm fully aware that he's a rookie. He's a rookie with freakish measurables but a rookie none the less. He's also probably 4th on our depth chart. You are allowed to be hyped on the Browns, I would be if I were a browns fan but people acting like this is going to be smooth sailing are sorely mistaken. Ben IS NOT a game manager.

I don't mind jumping on my laptop and my phone not working well with the board just keeps me off it, lol. I certainly know there has been some unique adversity here since stan passed away, no big deal. I should have just shot you a DM but each day it got progressively worse. I won't even try it now.
