I feel like mcvay is going thru some serious growing pains as a HC very questionable calls. Calling a challenge with a questionable PI then not calling the obvious non PI on Hill. Real head scratcher.
Then not running the ball and making Cleveland use their time outs.
Good win by our defense
I’m happy we won. Being 3-0 two years in a row is an amazing feelings. And I’m probably being completely spoiled but things haven’t seemed the same this year. Maybe I’m just waiting for our offense to really break out. Hopefully next week. Bucs defense is horrible.
I’m gonna say it (and I said it last week ) despite goff being off tonight .. something is up with Gurley .. he isn’t running hard or nasty like he used too .. has his hunger for the game gone ? .. no one here can say this is the Gurley we know and love
There was a glimmer tonight when he threw a block for woods on the double reverse ... but TG3 isn’t the same player we have had his whole career .. something mentally is off with him
I’m not celebrating shit. We played awful tonight. First time I’ve doubted McVay. His situational play calling was terrible. Goff has to step it up. He’s way too up and down and seems to turn the ball over every single game. The Oline was bad. Run defense has to tighten up. The Browns are NOT a good team and it should have been a blowout.
I know this sounds stupid considering all the shit years we had. But we need to get it together or we won’t even win the division.
a note fr espn:
The Browns came in battered and bruised. They were missing eight starters, including their entire defensive secondary and it was such a desperate situation that Burris, who was claimed Friday off waivers from Oakland, started and played the entire game.
We will get to see McCoy & SUH on the inside of the D line against our weakest players and Suh knows this offense and will help the sorry Bucs. Beating the saints and taking out Brees was a war and took lots of preparation and fight and we played down to our competition tonight as Cleveland has some very talented players and they got lucky a few times and when we all ou blitzed they ran a screen to that side. a missed fieldgoal in that wind affected the game also. We need 16-17 weeks for this team to get ready for the pats. Coach's need work too.
Agreed. Pre-game we knew they'd need to win in the trenches to have a chance and they did on a lot of snaps defensively. And Mayfield balled his @$$ off. Lot of respect for them, I wasn't sure they had it in them with so many players out. We are very fortunate to get out of there with the W.Looks like the Browns came to play.
Respect.
And we were not even leading at half time!19-3 on the road now under McV
19-3 on the road now under McV
so the rook blows coverage for 1 play and its a bad game? I thought he played well
Well, I would rather have them struggle now than later.I felt like we figured it out in the second half. Pound them with inside zone, and then use the play-action to bury them. Goff just needs to not force that last pass that was Int'd. The other Int wasn't an Int and was more a great play than anything. Young QBs have their ups and downs. Goff is currently down a tad. He is definitely not playing like he did for much of last year, but I expect he'll get it figured and get right.
The second year for Gurley under Fisher, had many questioning whether he was a one year wonder, flash in the pan, etc...

2016 Gurley = 885 yards rushing and 327 yards recieving and NO TD's.
Gurley and Goff have a substandard Oline and that accounts for many issues by both this year. We sustained a huge blow by letting Saffold walk, and really found out tonight. It's the first huge mistake by this organization during the McVay era. That Oline last year was stable consistent, and essentially never injured. It was a major reason for our success the previous two years.
Demby is a straight up liability and is the weakest link. Kromer needs to find an answer to this shyte. Gurley is affected somewhat by his arthritis issues, but his ineffectiveness has more to do with the guys up front, imo. No frigging Christmas gifts unless they shape up, right Jared?
