And I'll add to that on top of not using him early they weren't even making the Browns accountable for him no motions/ movement in the backfield or lined up in the slot.

Yeah that was weird, looked like preseason vanilla calls when you have the #2 fantasy RB just standing there

On many plays CMC seemed like the only person who could hold a block... that's not a good use of his talents.

You don't win Super Bowls by leaving a lot of gas in the tank of your best players. We aren't trying to improve their resale value.

Use the man. Hell, our kicker was injured warming up on the sidelines...

If you use him effectively early and establish him as a threat, his value as a decoy also increases.  Running him up the gut isn't a great way to establish him as as a threat.  I don't know why it's so hard to understand or figure out.  Get him the ball in space and let him do his thing.

Why did we not run the ball at all in the first half McCaffrey or other.  If Forman can't run the damn ball let's get someone who can. Every other team seems to be able to get 2 capable running backs.  It was weird play calling that put our o-line on their heels the entire first half.  And if the ball is getting batted every play how about we move the pocket.  Baker is pretty good at throwing on the roll out.

Baker couldn't get through his reads far enough to make it to CMC. Also their d-line was better than our o-line, so running was going to be mostly ineffective. Add to that drive killing batted passes and you've got trouble. 

Sadly we still need further upgrades to our o-line to stop this from happening.

My first move would be... to not start a back up at center.  Wtf is happening?

      Yes, but those guys aren't depth guard signings, they're likely going to wait and see who has injuries or players under performing and then sign there. I also think that if Ickey really is going to be able to play at some point this year, that's where our guard depth comes from.  As if he gets to the point of being active, we'd then have 3 LT's on the roster with him, Freeling, and Walker, gotta think one of them not named Freeling gets kicked inside if needed.

      lol imagine being Hill and this is what your coach thinks about you replacing a guy giving up over 4 goals per game.

      I don't think Tyreek is a bad player to play with on the field, for sure not in the same way that Diggs is, as he's a cancer on the field with how he acts, and wouldn't take kindly to being 2nd fiddle behind T-Mac. It's that Tyreek is just a terrible person who realistically shouldn't even be in the NFL, his insane athletic ability is why his off field transgressions have been overlooked.  If he was a WR3, no team would have kept him around, it was only that he was a 1st ballot HOF level talent that kept him around. Just zero interest in having a person like that around our young WRs, that's really all it comes down to for me with him. Again, if we were true contenders this year, that changes things and I'd rather bring in the best possible players and hope it works out.  But they're trying to build something here and to do that, you need high quality people, not just great talent.
