    I watched a player who though he would only take one step after the ball was thrown who already had his mind made up to rattle the quarterback... but i mean there are different persepectives to it... but if the flag is not thrown your right that was the play that if that int holds and we score on that drive we win this game there wouldnt have been a second half to watch... but i mean its not as egregious as timmy's in week two when he took about 5 steps

     

    I didn't say I thought that it was a penalty, because I really didn't.  I DID say it was a stupid penalty because it was.  In today's NFL you will get called for following through on QB who has released the ball.  I also thought the hands to the face call against Babin was a poor call but when Jeff Tripplette and his terrible crew are out there you gotta work extra hard to avoid stuff like that

    so you guys just dont watch lawrence guy... hahaha the dude is clearly our second best lineman this year and really hope he keeps this starting job... dude is one hell of a run stuffer

     

    I watched lawrence guy take a stupid penalty that took a Webb interception off the board, otherwise I would have included him.  He has put together a couple solid games this year.

    The hardest thing to watch is the complete lack of a pass rush.  I honestly don't think our secondary is as horrible as all you repeatedly say it is.  We have now started blitzing on almost every 3rd down trying to manufacture pressure because our guys up front can't rush the passer.  

     

    Outside of Brandon Williams I think all the guys on the D line are either has-beens or never-wills

    Flacco is responsible for 3 TDs today and one of his biggest critics isn't roasting him right now. He was fine. Just because he's not a good fantasy QB doesn't mean he can't do this. Flacco alone is not capable of winning games. Very few QBs can. He needs a defense as football is a team sport.  If we had a defense we'd be a playoff team. 

     

    This is a completely false statement.

    Really? Just put up 30 pts with a JV receiving corps.

     

    For all the good things the O did in the 1st quarter and a half, the failure to put the game away is what gave our D a chance to lose yet another game.  This team lacks killer instinct and it has been gone since players like Boldin and Pollard were cast away.

     

    The browns secondary is also JV quality minus Haden and Gipson so the fact that the guys couldn't make anything happen is sad.

    Please man . We were in a position to win again with Forsett's td run . The 2 point conversion play call was beyond bad!

    Cleveland set an all time passing yards record today !

    They have been around awhile my friend

     

    Forsett running behind Osemele was the only offense we could muster the entire 2nd half against a browns defense without their top corner and safety.

    I was nervous the whole 2nd half...but way to grind it out. I must say the play off the game was Kendrick Lewis tripping up Le'Veon Bell on his longest run in OT, after he broke that tackle by CJ mosely and sprinted up the sideline I just knew he was gone. But Lewis brought him down and they ended up failing on 4th down. This game should serve as a blueprint for dean pees, when u bring pressure good things happen, when u dont you give up plays and put ur defense in some messed up situations. We have a real shot at 3-3 these next 2 weeks with CLE and SF up next. if we can go into the bye week 5-3, or at worst 4-4, the back half of our schedule seems more favorable with all of those home games. Maybe SSS and Camp injuries are blessings in disguise, because now waller will get 1st team work and he and Joe can practice those jump balls, and back shoulders, because this guy is 6'6 and runs a 4.4 Joe has to take advantage of this matchup nightmare. Also, u can neg me for this but i believe if SSS was still in the game, we woulda lost becuase Joe would have tried to force the ball to him. but rest easy for these 10-11 days...see yall on the 11th!!!

     

    Steve Smith is fast becoming the crutch that Joe Flacco leans on too much, like he used to with Pitta.  I don't think that is a good thing at all considering he isn't building chemistry with the other receivers that will actually be around next year.

    gets pretty annoying reading about all the good and elite receivers on every team in the AFC North EXCEPT ours.

    The drop off in talent between us and the other three teams at that position is and continues to be depressing. even the Browns had Josh Gordon.

     

    hurtful, yet very true.  We are the only team within the division that can't draft any talented pass catchers outside the numbers.

    Flacco needs to deliver late? Are you joking, Bedard? I'll be the first to admit that he hasn't looked great, and has made some questionable throws... But, he's also lead multiple comebacks in the same game this year. Do you expect him to win each game multiple times??

     

    Defense needs to deliver late. Get it right.

     

    Defense playing poorly late in games.  Offense playing TERRIBLE early in games.  Spotting Cinci a 14-0 lead at half falls on the offense as well.  Who gave the Bungles the extremely short field by throwing a boneheaded pass to the flats that was picked by pacman Jones?  Yeah, must have been the defense...
