ban belichick, ban pats from playoffs

I feel like they’re just gonna keep doing it until it costs them the chance at rings.

BB ain’t worried about picks, he’s playing 4D chess.  Take him out of the playoff picture and maybe they get it.

Sounds great.

But we’d still goof it up.

Man, he sure is getting a lot of heat for playing like 10 quarters this whole season 😂 

I hear ya. I'm about as optimistic as it gets as a Browns fan, but I can't hop on the Njoku train. His athleticism just doesn't show up on tape. Idk, am I crazy?! 

Despite all that, I still think he was sorely missed this year. He does know how to go up and get the ball and Baker loves targeting him in the redzone. I know I just critiqued him, but he's definitely far from a bad player. Just not looking to be what we expected when we drafted him.

I think his age is relevant to his production thus far, he’s still so young.

I think he would have changed a lot of things this year with his ability to split the seam as well as his ability in the red zone.

I’d love to see him and OBJ split to one side in the red zone with Landry on the other side.  Someone is guaranteed to be 1:1 and I love those odds, or we have an absurdly favorable running situation.

100% agree with all of that. Literally all of it. I still have hope for him. And I like what he would do to defenses with all the other pieces we have in place. I don't think he will ever become a consistent catcher of the football though. He looks SO unathletic sometimes it kills me. Hopfeully I'm wrong. I was just a SLOW, sure handed WR back in the day.. So I just have a bias and I hate guys who have issues catching the ball lol.

And I do stand by the fact that his combine athleticism has not really shown up on the field in the NFL. He's clearly athletic, but he does not look close to an elite athlete, even when compared against TEs specifically.

I think he's shown glimpses of it. He is an explosive leaper and that shows. He is also elusive with the ball in space, but he's always seemingly blanketed in man coverage rather than being used out in the flat as a RAC guy. He was amazing at Miami on bubble screens and quick arrows. We have only been using him as a crosser/intermediate route runner. I'd like to see us get him the ball in space where he can utilize his quickness and balance.
