we're saying this after a game where Amari Cooper had 3 receptions for 17 yards.... DEP was the only recieveer that had over 50 yards. Brisset average 4 yards for completion and barely eclipsed 50% completion percetnage.

Stats won't show the two TD passes Jacoby terribly misses.  Amari Cooper should have 100+ yards and 2 TDs

but they didnt.. the scoreboard doesnt show us with a W bc the refs called a ghost call and a missed a huge call.

If we are giving out ghost stats, CMC should have had 200 yards total today but players tackled him.

i noticed in the 2nd half we brought Horn in the box with Chinn. The browns started to struggle with running the ball. There were a flew plays where Horn was in the backfield leading to some disruption of the plays.

My problem with Horn isn't his play. It's that we picked him over Fields. He's already covering Amari Cooper and winning most of those battles. Definitely would have given up a TD though on that one play.

Yeah, it wasn't a pretty showing, but it was largely effective. I think part of that was the fact that we are actually talented, though inconsistent (which might be a bigger problem), but I also believe that Brissett sucking. 

We'll try again next week though. There is reason to be guardedly optimistic in my opinion.

A successful running game doesn't influence the passing game? Are you just splitting hairs to be a dick at this point, or what?

I dont even know what you are attemping to discuss. This thread is about our top 3 corners performance. Your comments just seem out of place in this thread. Maybe we can jump to another thread where are talking about the run game?

It's the same sort of approach as "the defense did great last year, it gave up very few yards," without considering the numerous short fields afforded opposing offenses.

The play he slipped and Xavier Woods was over the top? That wasnt a TD, but a decent gain. Horn got beat by a veteran at the line on a single play.. not sure we can use that to say he was a missed pick.

 

I also wouldnt be defending Fields.. the guy still doesnt look like an nfl QB. There is a reason the bears elected to pass the ball less than 20x times today.

I saw Horn lined up against the slot receiver way too much IMO.  Also, thought he used his hands way too much today.  I mean it's like his 4th NFL game (?) so we'll see how he evolves as the year goes on.

Donte is way overrated (at least to some) and will be roasted by good QBs repeatedly over the course of this season.

Henderson is like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.  He covers really well and makes some good plays at times and then goes completely insane and starts thinking he's in WWE.

Taylor is young, raw, and got roasted many times last year.  Maybe with more time he becomes solid.

    • He makes a good point about Wallace.  In fairness to Wallace it is hard to play your position as freely as you need to when your defensive line is getting pushed around like ragdolls.  One of the greatest attributes a defensive line has is sucking up blocks, freeing up your linebackers.  Our defensive line couldn't suck up a lollipop more or less blocks.  I think Evans, Sanders and Tremble are going to be a really nice TE group.  I can see all three getting time on the field.  If Sanders can improve as a blocker teams won't be so inclined to believe it is a pass play whenever Sanders is on the field.  Ryan Fitzgerald, I think was an awesome pick-up. Hopefully he can fill our kicker void. Luke Kandra many turn out to be our next Norwell.  Everything I have heard about him says he's a beast.  He needs some refinement, but the good news is he's got Hunt and Lewis (arguably the best guard tandem in the league) to learn from. 
    • Great teams build through the draft and have several young players that start that are on rookie contracts. It's important to hit on players in rounds 4 thru 7.  These should be future starters and solid depth.  When you hit on most of your picks you free up a lot of cap space for those one- or two-year players to fill spots you are thin at. No GM is going to perfect on all their picks.  You're going to whiff every once in a while.  That was Hurney problem.  He'd nail the first pick but after that it was reach after reach and we couldn't get any depth on this team. I'm excited about Morgan as our GM and hopefully he'll be around a long time.  It will be even better if Canales can continue to grow as a head coach, both in the development of young players and play calling. I remember last season after Young came back in the lineup and started to perform well.  We saw different plays I had only seen other teams use.   If Canales's play design and play calling continue to grow. Morgan and Canales will be linked together for a long time.  It would be nice to see a Coach and GM together for a decade or two. Go Panthers
