BrownsfaninPa Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 Here is a guy we need to pay very close attention to. He is quick, and can catch almost everything Ben Roethlisberger throws to him. We need to cover him so close, we can smell his breath. No grabbing, no interference calls, just stick to him so he cant catch anything. Our defensive line will put pressure on Ben to force the ball and hopefully cause interceptions.

Ward could do it alone, but our safeties will have to play their best game of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour2ma Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 It's not just Claypool's speed... it's his size and strength as well. 6'4 and 238... shades of Josh Gordon minus the baggage. Kid is quite a package... if he's not now (and at least per Ourlads, he's not), he will soon be their #1 WR... and will be so for a while. 40 minutes ago, LBC mike said: sendejo is back . 😳 With Harrison out... you should be glad...

If he stays on this trajectory he's going to be Calvin Johnson dominant. I'm still not sure why he fell into the second round other than the smaller sample size.

He tested positive like 7 days ago and wasn’t just in protocol. He’d have to get over it and test negative 4 times right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t even hear about him testing positive.... who the hell are the Browns even going to have left to play defense??? Chubb and Hunt better run the ball 45 times for like 3 yards a carry just to try to run the damn clock out.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya but doesn’t it still show positive on a test and don’t they have to test negative 4 times before they can play? I guess I don’t understand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he looks good and has produced in what I think is a loaded WR room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The defensive gameplan is little easier when you face a team that can’t run the ball. So it isn’t all doom n gloom for us. But Let’s not suddenly let them do that. Your last line mentioned the key. Ben needs to be pressured and We need to win one on one battles in the trenches to do that. And if that is not working we need to add a 5th, 6th maybe 7th guy to get after Ben. You stop Claypool by not giving him a catchable ball. This defense is not built to beat the Steelers offense. Steeler WRs space and missing tackles and letting Ben set his feet with no pressure. Limit their number of drives and then maybe disrupt a couple drives with a Myles sack and Myles hold call (if we can get one of those). Maybe the Steelers have a few unforced errors that stall another drive maybe a missed kick with another drive. That would leave the Steelers maybe 24-28 points.

That and... as I have to explain to folks around here... only 32 players can be taken in the 1st round. Sometimes really good players worthy of being picked in the 1st are simply pushed out. In all 6 WRs went in 2020's 1st round. As to why Chase (great WR name BTW...) was around at pick #49... basically mid-2nd round? Chase's resume may have been a factor there, but almost all the WRs taken before him in Round 2... and there were 4... had really good rookie years as well. The exception I see is K.J. Hamler at #46 overall... but then... Elway, sooooo. Even more puzzling was he had already taken Jeudy in Round 1, but might help explain Horse-face's recent "promotion" out of the GM job. 😂 https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/draft-tracker/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets rid of the ball in 2.3 seconds on average. That is no time at all. Even blitzing 2-3 guys would not help against that. The fact is, your back 7 has to put close coverage on the Steeler receiving corps......and that is what our defense is bad at. Worse if they are missing some of their best guys.

Dutch Oven Posted January 9, 2021 Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 Basically, one of two things have to happen for the Browns to win. Bad weather comes in, and the Browns pound out an ugly 13-10 type game like we saw a few weeks ago, or they win an absolute shootout.
