NateDawg Posted September 21, 2021 Author Share Posted September 21, 2021 People (fanboys) around the NFL that are not actually watching the games might think less of Mayfield’s play then they should. He’s made one bad pass this year so far. He has been great and the TD line doesn’t show it. It doesn’t need to though, and he isn’t playing selfish football or calling his own number unnecessarily from inside the 5 yard line. They are playing proficient football, getting down the field, and punching it into the end zone. His time will certainly come, but you are going to see a lot of quarterbacks around the league that are not as good as Mayfield throw noticeably more touchdowns then him this season. As a result, you could continue to see foolish top 10 quarterback lists that either exclude him or have him too low. Not around here though, we have the smartest fans in the business… 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 I think OBJ is expected to make his debut this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and so we won't have to be so reliant on Schwartz to keep defenses honest too. Seems like our preferred personnel groupings include him over DPJ/Higgins. Hopefully he's still fast.

Reginaldm9 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 The more I think about it, this is going to be a long game. Chicago is going to stack the box and force us to win through the air (a lot harder to do with Jarvis out). Fields is going to run all over the place. I would take the Bears and whatever the spread is easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t mind rewarding him with a carry at the goal line, but that second carry was unnecessary imo. We’ve got too many playmakers for him to be stumbling around with the ball. The Only prescription is more Janovich 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 If we want to win, the defense MUST keep Chicago under 21 points. It’s going to be a grind all day for our offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I could've run for about 20 yards on that play. Assuming, of course, that I didn't trip over my own feet the way Janovich did. I really wish we would limit our use of a fullback. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel like Stef wants the threat of a FB dive to be there. I could see in the near future, a fake FB dive pitch. Or he simply wanted to reward the FB. Dude Barely got touches last year. Reward him for the dirty work, so he keeps doing what he is doing with a great purpose. He has been great being a lead blocker and all you hear about is Hunt and Chubb, while he helps spring them for big runs. Gotta toss him a bone once and awhile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are very similar sets to the browns so they are going to have a lot of good film to see how they will approach these sets. Also should see us having more success than Cincy since we actually have an OL. Our offense should be able to our pace their offense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
