As over the top critical that Kozar was of the Rams he did say he loves to watch Sam throw the ball. He really raved about Bradford.

I don't have anything to say about Isaiah Pead. He is what he is, and watch next week he'll have 100 yards.

Daryl Richardson, on the other is a stud. That dude was running hard. He deserves the starting gig.

Sam Bradford was amazing. Accurate, made his decisions, put the ball in the right place, and was under pressure. The haters can fuck off.

I wasn't too thrilled about the interior OL against the Browns' starting D. I saw Sam being hurried and hit after the pass (which is bullshit that roughing wasn't call on the long Chris Givens play). Jake Long, however is gonna make Sam real happy.

Maybe it was the real vanilla defense, but I just didn't like the fact how they just let Cleveland have 2 long drives.

Zac Stacy is a chugger. Just chugs along. I like that.

Too many drops...really don't want to see that shit again.

Alec Ogletree got exposed on some plays. Even Marshall (or was it Torry?) said "you aren't at Georgia, they gonna go after you." Although Alec does have crazy speed for a LB.

I felt like Brandon Weeden was picking on TJ McDonald.

Robert Quinn was glued to Joe Thomas. I'll give him a pass b/c Joe Thomas is the best LT in the NFL.

Matthew Conrath was beastly. I have a gut feeling he's gonna have some say in the DL rotation.

2nd and 3rd string OL? :help:

Finally, back to the offense. Corey Harkey absolutely deserves a spot on the 53. That guy can BLOCK.

OK I'm done.

Meh. I remember the color guy asking Kosar if he liked Bradford, and he said, "I liked him on THAT play." And then went on to say that he hasn't seen enough of him, but this is the turning point in his career, blah blah regurgitation of media garbage, blah blah blah. I'm still milking the imagery I have in my head of him falling down a sewer hole on the way to his car.

Nice Takes, I agree and I too was not as impressed with the 1's on the OL as I hoped to be.

I agree, but i just think that the Browns as a team overall were fired up and ready to play this game like yesterday. I thought the Rams OLine brought it up a notch after the first series where,as you said,they got pushed around a little.

Too many drops...really don't want to see that shit again.
Yeah its getting old isn't it?
I think that'll improve once these young cats on offense get acclimated to the speed of the NFL.
Steadman looked good though. I think he's going to be a factor this season. Especially if Quick doesn't really step it up.



Matthew Conrath was beastly. I have a gut feeling he's gonna have some say in the DL rotation.
He was in there stuffing the run pretty good. He looked like he was getting tired Lol...but that was good to see him in there working.

2nd and 3rd string OL? :help:
Scary. Hooey was a mess at RT going against scrubs.

Finally, back to the offense. Corey Harkey absolutely deserves a spot on the 53. That guy can BLOCK.
I was impressed with Harkey too. Many of you guys said he was having a good camp,no doubt. He did some good things out there tonight vs an NFL caliber pass rush.

To me just a plain jane preseason game. Gotta find something Pead can do just to get his confidence up.
We can talk all we want about all the new weapons but Givens is the one that will make the offense go.
I think Barksdale can handle RT till Saffold gets back, but won't be surprised to see Williams gets some reps at RT this week in practice.
3 more then it gets real.

Just found out... Bernie Kosar's daughter is a PORN STAR. Explains the drinking problem, or maybe the drinking problem explains the daughter's life path?

Either way, it all makes sense to me now.

It's obvious we didn't want to showcase Austin or Cook. I get that.

Pead... he needs to do something to prove himself. In the NFL; he's not done anything... Leading to our scepticism.
Sam threw incomplete with Pead wide open over the middle, it was a bad read

watching preseason is like watching your girl do a strip tease while wearing white granny panties..just ain't worth it after the first five minutes

Totally agreed. The only concern that I have for the preseason is for there to be few if any injuries. It is important to get the field chemistry and timing down, but really the preseason is about NO INJURIES!

I heard that too. And that's why his follow up was so good.

Hey, I know Kozar is a drunken fool who was bashing on the Rams, but at least I know that when he praises a player it's not patronizing.

After he was so indifferent about Bradford, he changed his tune. I mean, the play-by-play guy said "you like Bradford?" like he expected Kozar to take the company line and bash Sam with the rest of the Rams. So Kozar followed the plan with his "I liked him on THAT play".

But later on Kozar couldn't contain himself. It could have been "in vino veritas", the booze taking, but Kozar knows what a great passer looks like and he saw it in Sam and he said so. That meant more to me than a bunch of homers telling me that Sam looked great last night.
