Welp, the Browns have Collins’ trouble as well.

Collins at home is a stud on road a dud.

I get people wanting Browns BUT as much as I dislike Texans, refs messed up our ending vs Clev and correct call we win South and browns miss playoffs as would have finished 8th in AFC,

January 13

Rams win behind Carson Wentz after Stafford banged up early, Wentz goes on a roll and leads Rams to another Super Bowl....Rams elect to roll with him next year and scuttle Stafford.

2020 playoffs vs Bills- Kemoko Turay off sides at end of the half with Bills not running a play and were settling for the fg, he bit on the cadence somehow and the 4 point difference was the game. Think Rivers may had run a few more games for us in his last hurrah. We outplayed Bills by quite a bit, had 75 more yards from scrimmage, had 9 first downs vs 2, had the ball for 9 more minutes.

Rainmann is getting close to what I believe will be multiple appearances. Graded out as the 7th best tackle in the league at 82.3 up from a rookie score of 73.3 (9.0 gain is impressive especially when score was impressive to begin with). Braden Smith though injured quite a bit finished with a 83.3 (up from a 75.5) good for 5th best in the league. NFL's best tackle duo this season.

Deboer is their new coach.

I'm not shocked often by sports news but this is floorring...NO ONE could have imagined this.

January 12

I want the Texans for sure because Browns only beat us because refs fouled up that game, NFL s if correct outcome we win division and browns finish 10-7 (7-5 afc and out of the playoffs).

January 11

Had a nice bounce back year,hopefully he stays healthy.

January 11

Trey Sermon should figure into the rb room next season, effective runner avg 4.6 yards a carry, spotty hands much worse then Goodson in that category. He is a restricted free agent, think he stay.s Think it will likely be JT/Sermon/Goodson/Hull to start camp. Not sure Scott makes much impact though it is possible. Moss would be a nice 2 will be interesting what offers come.

Curious. I would be interested in Yannick’s numbers. He did have something like 9 sacks here but we did not resign him.

Yannick was very bad vs the run, his total pff score with us last year was a bad 51.4 this year he regressed to 39.9 (Ranked 2nd to last out of 114 players)

Ebukum who replaced him had a 69.1 last year and this year for us a 84.4 (16 of 1114).

Huge upgrade probably biggest of any position on club I would guess.

Looks like Cross and Blackmon are our starting safeties.

Hope Blackmon re ups at a good price.

Unless we can somehow pick up better talent cheaper I don't see how we let Stewart, Moore or Pittman walk.

Bryan has done ok. Solid backup at a thin position.

Minshew is not a starter, but he did really well early in the season when teams weren't prepared for him. He's a good backup.

I like Sanchez even if his leg may have lost some power. Hopefully an offseason of S&C can bring some of it back.

Lewis is better than Dayo in my opinion. More well rounded. Great backup.

Blackmon is good... when healthy. If we can keep him for cheap I'm all for it.

I like Moss and hope we can keep him. But, I saw suggested he'd want Montgomery-money ($6m year) and $20m total is too much for RBs. We also have Hull coming back.

Harrison was a flexible piece this season. Played both LB and S. I like him and hope we can keep him for cheap.

Why do you think sanchez leg has lost power ? He had his highest average by far this year (2.1 over previous best and 3.8 over 2021). Just curious.

January 9

Franklin 64 out of 83 linebackers is very bad. Johnson dead last at NT, Rodney Thomas 90 of 99, Baker 111 of 128 all ouch.....

Having AR go down and having uncle Rico winning 9 wins on a last place schedule but it shows we are close.

Anthony needs to play smarter and we all know that. I think he will learn to slide and not take hits. He release time is fantastic and his vision is stellar. Im quite sure if he was playing in week 18 it would have been a much better story

What worries me is he had the same injury to same shoulder scenario season at Gainesville Eastside which is shown in the documentary QB1 on Tubi, if anyone hasnt watched it good series and focused that year on AR, Bryce Young and Deuce Hogan.

Well with the end of the season and going into the offseason, I have started to look at our team, who's available and the cap space available. Which it seems this year, we have top 4 cap space (granted we have some FA to resign) and the best there are some interesting names available at our positions of need on defense.

Cap Space Roughly 72 million

Offensive positions of need: WR

Defensive position of need: CB, LB, S (possibly)

Free Agent options:

Ideally I see us drafting a WR, and LBs because we have to resign Pittman and it's better to have one big WR contract, instead of two eating the cap. Looking at FA options for defense on spotrac and avoiding the top names, I think there are several players available that may benefit from a scheme change and/or have experience in a Bradley-like system because I expect him back at this point.

CB:

Steven Nelson: Got to pick a Oregon State Alum, otherwise I like him as a veteran presence in the CB room who never was the number 1 CB but has had consistent solid play.

Jalen Mills: CB but also plays Safety, great locker room guy and another good veteran presence for the CB room for the young players. He brings intensity, but at this point is not a starter.

CJ Henderson & Shaquill Griffin: Both spent time at the Carolina disaster and would be 1 year deals. Griffin Originally drafted by seattle and knows the defense, he's currently on Texans. Griffin would bring competition and may start. Henderson would be a reclamation project, originally drafted by Jags then traded the year after being drafted hasn't lived up to his pick but may just need to get out of the dysfunction.

Jeff Okudah: Another player that didn't live up to hype of draft pick, had alot of injuries early in career, ended his rookie deal with the falcons who had a decent defense this year. He may be a good addition at low pay.

Safety: So safety is an interesting situation because we have multiple SS but no true Free Safety. Nick Cross is someone who has flashed but Blackmon had a great year, so do they resign him or let him walk and move to Cross. Otherwise the Free Agent market is old for Free Safeties. outside of bringing someone like McLeod back as depth, there's not much.

Winfield Jr. & Terrell Edmunds: they probably get resigned, Winfield will get a big contract, Edmunds less but above market average since there isn't many available.

Aloha Gilman is really coming into his own for the Chargers (86.1 PFF seasonal score), only 26 years old would be a nice add to Free Safety depending on what market brings him.

We probably would be playing Cleveland without Smith , Brents and maybe even a banged up Taylor. It stings badly but we were going nowhere anyway . At least we picked up 5-6 spots in the draft. We could have an elite WR , Edge , or CB drop to us.

Hard to say how far we would go as 4 seed, likely beat Clev though not a gimme and then possibly on to balt in rematch which we may win again or may not. Truth is no club in NFL is a dominant team this year, Buffalo struggling mightly,Miami banged up beyond recognition, KC offense is broke. Pitt is bad....

January 8

I think Minshew stays unless he wants to go, Wentz was acquired for a lot of draft capital and with a huge contract to start and win. Gardener cost zero draft capital and came cheap as a #2 who could fill in if AR was injured or struggled badly.

If someone offers Gardner a starting spot he will bolt but dont honestly seeing any club thinking he is their starter so dont think we need to worry.

Of course comes down to salary numbers, hope we dont get into too many bidding wars. MPJ,Moore and Grove biggest keepers, Minshew a good #2 we know what he brings, Harrison played big time and again for us in 2 different positions. Rigo had career numbers came back strong from his injury. Blackmon played well, injury issues so dont see anyone offering him huge money.

Yeah I don’t count Dulin either. Perfectly fine with him staying for special teams but I view the trying to make him a WR beyond anything more than an emergency roll as experiment that needs to end.

I sure hope it ends as well. unfortunately none of the ps to active wr shined at all so no diamond in the rough from DJ Montgomery, Winfree, Amari Rogers, Ethan Fernea

Yeah but still need more than three NFL level WRs on the roster. Okay four if you count Dulin. They might not go one round one but odds are they draft one or two.

Agreed and I dont count Dulin as an NFL level wr (Was hoping he would get there but hasnt) but he is a great special teams ace and we missed that several times this season. Not sure what Mckenzie suspension is about but he wasnt playing well even before it so cant see him coming back.

its not changing subject. The subject is kicking a fieldgoal versus punting. You claim it didn’t make sense because risk/reward. I claim your numbers don’t factor in the poor scoring performance our offense was showing. We couldn’t convert 3rd downs. We couldn’t score in the redzone. Our qb was throwing over heads and out bounds, completely not seeing wide open receivers. We had made two field goals already and felt the points were needed versus cj stroud. Shane Steichen didn’t agree with your analysis on the risk/reward not being worth the attempt. Points were at a premium for our offense. If not for a solid defensive effort, we would have been smoked last night and not because we missed a 57 yard fg instead of punting.

I never claimed we converted 3rd downs nor played good redzone ball However if scoring is at a premium it doesnt make take a low risk field goal and give opponent good field position in fact the opposite, dont give the short field make them go long instead. The risk didnt pay off so S.S. was wrong. Majority here felt as I did not worth it SO is hindsight ......

hindsight. / (ˈhaɪndˌsaɪt) / noun. the ability to understand, after something has happened, what should have been done or what caused the event.

It was said before the miss even took place, if was saying yes kick then after oh we should have punted then it becomes hindsight and if that occured and you had an issue you would the be 100% right in having issue, it did not though.

Just now, Restinpeacesweetchloe said:

If we had punted them deep we change field position and probably get it back in great field position.

Most understand this thank you, some pushing a different agenda will not admit it though unfortunately.

cool. What was Minshew’s stats- 3rd down conversions- red zone %? Just curious… you know the stats that actually make up the difference in the game and certainly did last night. Not the risk/reward of a fieldgoal try to take the lead.

Changing subject partly is fine.....Minshew was awful as I also said last night, in fact his misplaced easy throw cost us the first down late in the game making a routine catch into a very difficult one.. HOWEVER to say a missed fg as opposed to punt deep doesnt make a difference in a close game is an argument you would be all alone in making and for good reason, no logic to this reasoning.

Adios amigo. We’re both stubborn. No one is going to win here. You play the hindsight and what-if game. I don’t.

Not hindsight if said it at the time which most here did but as all know I'm a big stats guy (among biggest here) and risk went against the numbers and didnt pay off.
