DawgTalkers.net Forums The Archives 2016 NFL Season Looking Back: Browns 13 Patriots 33 Post game thoughts

Just toss this game footage in the trash.

Hue is going to run out of things to say before the end of the year.

Its too bad Kessler didnt make it back to the game. He was looking really good. Greco did the ol lookout block and that was all. Didnt watch much more than that after he got hurt. Not watching Whithurst.

The team is so bad on every level, so lacking in talent, with so many question marks and no QB, there's really very little to discuss until all that changes.

Arguably the most painful Browns game I've ever sat through- and given our dubious history, that's saying something. Kessler's second drive gave me some hope. As soon as Whitehurst came in, it was game over.

Defense actually played far better in second half and did some good things but with offense not being able to do anything, it was wasted effort.

If Kessler is hurt for a few weeks, I actually hope we play Hogan as the starter. I can't deal with watching Whitehurst.

The injuries really disappoint me. Our season was over before it even started. We have nothing to look forward to.

How bout the fact that even with all that..

People are already talking about firing coaches.

Won't happen. As bad as today was, its the first game that we were never really in...and it was against Brady.

I like our coaches. They have nothing to work with. Its not their fault.

Hey, fire Horton tomorrow and it wouldn't bother me a bit. But if you're happy he has LBs on quick receivers, nobody on the TEs, the CBs playing 8 yards off, and no pass rush on 3rd downs cool, I can dig it. He probably just needs more time.

Our secondary is thin, the LBers not strong in coverage, we don't have a good pass rush. Yep, sound like it is Horton's fault.

I hope Kessler isn't out long, but at least Charlie can make a good 15-20 yard throw with zip.
Couple guys bag on him as if he's junk, or has no guts.

We were just outclasses today. That's all there is to it.

We have played 4 different QBs this year, plus Pryor taking some snaps there ... and all of them have looked, at the very least, competent. That is amazing. We have so much youth on this team that winning is close to impossible. I said that from the word go this year ... but I was encouraged by the way the Browns managed to play a couple of teams really tough, but I expected today to be a train wreck, and it was.

I thought Kessler player well, until he got broken. Man, this isn't just getting QBs hit. Andrew Luck had been sacked 15 times in their 1st 4 games, and was sacked again tomorrow. RG3 had been sacked 3 times. Out. McCown had been sacked 3 times. Out. Kessler has been sacked 4 times coming into this game.; Out.

Just unbelievable. Heck, there's no guarantee that Whitehurst is going to be able to go next week.

Just unreal.

Maybe analytics will show at the end of the year we need to invest in some quality o line men. I wonder how many injured QBS that will take. But then again we will all be drinking the kool aid saying how glad we are that we didn't over spend on quality linemen in FA or the draft. Jimmy has to smile when he reads posts saying we should not overspend as we are 50 million under the cap again and he gets to put that in his pocket. I just hope that Hue is willing to stick it out, seem like one of the better ones we have had in a long time.

We'll probably not win a game this season.

I was really looking forward to seeing Kessler continue to play this year to see if there is something there, but I'm starting to wonder if he's too fragile to play QB. He seems to be made of glass.

Brady's pose on our sideline after he ran for a first down, with the Pats up big, was classless. One of our guys needed to risk a suspension there. Not kidding.

I think for sure we are going 0-16.

I think all of our QBs are made of glass or our Oline has more holes than a block of swiss cheese

I agree. Someone on the sideline should have put him on his ass.

On the safety Kessler was hurt on, who missed the block on Hightower? Was that Alvin?

That would be crazy. It wouldn't surprise me, but it would be crazy. This team is lacking in talent and continuity. Bringing in a new coaching staff would just set the franchise back further.

I hope we win a game or two somewhere along the way. I think we will. Getting the #1 overall pick for a change would be nice but I can't bear to see the Browns go 0-16. Even 1-15 is pushing it.

I quit watching in the second quarter.

Is that possible?

Kessler got hammered ..

I actually thought it was going to be worse ...

If Whitehurst is our QB we will go 0 - 16 .. Hopefully either McCown or Cody are ready to go next week ..

If not, Charlie will be hurt sooner as opposed to later ..

If neither Cody nor McCown are ready for next week .. Wonder who we'll sign ..

This is not Charlie's fault .. He is who he is ..

Not sure why people think Kessler's made of glass .. He got SLAMMED on his right side/shoulder ..

After a linemen went unblocked.

This will take a year or two, so chill out. We will not fire the coaches, we will not go 0-16 either.

it's amazing that the exact same type of play has knocked out all 3 QBs

Didn't Griffin get hurt running out of bounds?

I've noticed he comes up gimpy almost every time he gets hit. He could use a good strength and conditioning program in the off-season.

You have to be able to take a little bit of punishment.

I'm saying a blow to the shoulder/collar

Because Brady did a 1st down pose?
Haha ok.

These harvard boys need to start looking at stats that tell them how fragile a player is. Never going to win a game with QB's getting injured every game.

The only way this team wins a game this year is if an opponent rests their starters in December.

Are you a patriots fan?

There is so much wrong with this.

I think he was being sarcastic.

Straighten up and read my post again, and get serious with the reading comprehension.

Think that we had one up the middle to our QB about 3 times; that was one of them.

How do you not block in the middle.

Over and under for final number of QB's we go through? I am thinking 8. Thoughts?
