If we were losing competitive games, that’s a different story. That happens in the national football league. But there is been a real digression in several areas, and the only offensive personnel changes have been seemingly positive additions. The offensive line is the same as it was last year (not the best). The difference is the play of our quarterback, hindered by some really terrible game planning and not using his skills the best either. So, as far as my own level of optimism, I am very disappointed with this season especially considering what I had expected and most of us expected as well. If we were 2-3 with a couple of losses that came down to the gun, fine. I would feel like we could beat some really good teams down the stretch. Things have not been pretty as a whole however. So I am not on the fire Freddie train by any means. I don’t think you give up on any fluid regime at this stage. But some real assessment must be done, and changes must be made in some way. You can’t keep doing the same things and expecting different results. It was really disappointing to see the type of game plan we came up with against San Francisco when some known deficiencies offensively had already emerged. Well, Kush is certainly a downgrade from Zeitler but the OL has mainly been struggling due to our OTs. Difference is last year we got the ball out quickly and this year we aren't - which has exposed the OL. We've also been without Higgins, who to non-Browns fans might not seem like a huge loss, but I think we'd all agree he's the WR that Baker has the best connection with. Callaway missing the first four games didn't help, as well as missing Njoku. Having those guys would help tremendously, IMO. With that said, there's still enough offensive talent for us to succeed, despite the missing players we've had. So yes, Baker and Freddie absolutely deserve lots of blame for our struggles so far, regardless of the players we have and haven't had. Baker has been bad no matter how you slice it, but I think him having Higgins back will give him a WR he can rely on and who can help him get into rhythm.

Mind Character Posted October 14, 2019 Author Share Posted October 14, 2019 It is Nigh. This too shall be forgotten soon. After the Patriots game, beating up on the worst teams in the NFL will make all who ride the wave feel like world-beaters once more. Freddie will soon be the heralded as King. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All will be right in the world when we sweep the Bengals, take care of the Fins and Cards, and win 1 or 2 against Pittsburgh. 9 win season for sure. The narrative will read that Freddie and Baker turned things around and all is right in the world. Will be a great time to roam the earth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost beating a premier team in the Seahawks leads me to believe we’re pretty close to being a solid team. Browns are a young team trying to eliminate mistakes and have a first time HC learning the ropes. Sucks to lose close ones but the Browns have come a long way already from the Titans game. You’re being cute about prophesying the Browns still sucking after beating lower tier teams but we’re closer than you think IF they keep building week-to-week. If that happens and they somehow make the playoffs at 9-7 it will be a huge step in the right direction. Don’t 💩 on that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
