DawgTalkers.net Forums The Archives 2018 NFL Season Looking Back: Browns 23 Buccaneers 26 Postgame thoughts

What’s horrible is they watch the game tape, have all week, have had several weeks to correct the mistakes and it’s the same ones and the same players making them. That’s the very definition on not being An effective coach

We have a fairly tough schedule the rest of the way. There aren't any that I see that would be easier than this one. I am not saying we will lose out, and I don't think we will. But we could.

It's literally scripted. That means, the beginning of the game should set up the rest of the game.

This team has been PUTRID at it. They dont establish an identity early and wait until the 2ne half to get started.

Its beyond bad coaching.

The first couple drives should be when the offense is most comfortable, successful because the plays are scripted. I thought Haley was a very good hire, he has been average.

Same old Browns.

Haley hasn’t show that he likes to adapt his offense. I think it was a big part of the fallout between he and Ben . I get wanting your offense, but it should be your teams offense based on what they do well and your job is to call plays that put them in best position to execute. I don’t feel haley has done that

Postgame thoughts:

- The Browns offense struggles early. Still only 6 points scored in the 1st qtr all year.

- Mayfield and Landry building chemistry. Much better than last week.

- This team is very undisciplined. 14 penalties is inexcusable.

- Ogbah had a great game.

- Ward had a nice game.

- Defense forced 4 more turnovers. Offense needs to capitalize of them more.

- Carlos Hyde was not missed.

- Desmond Harrison had a tough game against JPP

- Another close loss. At some point the Browns have got to start winning.

Also, how do we keep losing with the turnovers we generate?

They gotta get Baker Players before they ruin him.

I already do, but it doesn't help very much...

Yes. That was probably the best game of Ogbah's career.

Ward is awesome. It's crazy to not have to worry about him stinking ever.

less points

With the penalties we generate.

In my opinion its because we sent in all the blown calls from the raiders game to the nfl. Not sure if referee crews are fined for these blown calls or not. But it sure does seem like they have it out for us and will do this all season

General observation: The Isle is much further away than it looks from the mainland...

.

Cleveland Browns.

Damarious Randall was/is a great pickup. Him being to play corner today was huge.

sadly true

The one positive take away that I had from the offense was that I felt like Baker was starting to look a little more comfortable running play action.

Ogbah was a terror. Might have been his best game as a pro.

Jeesus, the penalty parade has to stop. We gave them several first downs because of penalties.

Baker was resilient yet again. Nothing was working in the first half but he found a way to get us into overtime.

Our punter has to be one of the best in football. Booms them with accuracy, good at dropping them inside the 10, definitely a bright spot.

Chubb had a really good game, but I still don't like trading Hyde.

Winston is good QB when he gets into a rhythm, he also turns it over and takes bad sacks at inopportune times and with much stupidity.

I don't know what adjustments GW made at halftime, but the Bucs had trouble moving the ball in the second half.

Their kicker made a 58-yarder to win it, gotta tip your cap to him.

I see the Hue bashing is here.... we have a banged up secondary and a thin WR group, and we still had a chance to win. these guys fight for their coach.

I was wrong:

They tied Baker's hands in the first quarter, and it bit them.

Tampa's first drive was mostly penalty yards.

8 first downs off of penalties.

Big runs called back because of...penalties.

Garrett jumps offsides every game in crucial moments.

Tackling is horrible.

Should have kicked a FG before the half. Points matter

Everytime the offense brings the team back into the game, the defense gives up a long scoring drive.

I like Hue, but if he goes for it on 4th down in FG range again, I'm done with him. Those three points could have been the difference.

Randall is a good player. Ward is a stud.

Chubb, IMO, is a better back than Hyde.

Need to sign a Good WR immediately, screw the cost.

I see a long losing streak coming.

"He is allowed to do that because at that time he is a running back"
NFL Ref

He was giving himself up, and was hit helmet to helmet.Bull%^$#

Anyone else feel like, with 2:28 to play, when the Browns tied the game,

that the Bucs had let the Browns score quickly so they'd have plenty of time to go down for that fg they missed.

Good strategy, since the defense always gives up a long drive for a score once we get back in the game.

Go look at the tape thats what the official explanation was.

That Isle wasn't about making the playoffs this season. It's about all the young talent we have, good building blocks for the future, and what looks like a franchise QB in the fold.

Don't be discouraged, bb. Hell, I'm still optimistic about the near future with this team.

As long as Haslam doesn't locate his idiot hat, he'll keep the coaching staff in place and we'll push for a division title in 2019.

We've seen that act before...GONG!

Also, we once again almost gave up 500 yards. Our defense, while the turnovers are nice, is getting killed

I can verify that that was almost a direct quote.

I understand that, it was Bull$&^+

Like in 2017?

Anyone else notice that the NFL no longer even bothers to apologize for their crap officiating?

No doubt. That bonehead decision cost us the game.


Decisions like that is why I don't like Hue Jackson.

Take the points when you can get them and see how it turns out in the end. If it was a late game deal, sure, go for it by all means.

Oh well, another week of hearing how I am a hater and Hue is a good coach.

A mix of penalties, poor execution, bad luck, bad decisions... i'm so numb to this team

The roughing the passer call was the bad one. He was in the air with his hands raised, and the QB was hit from behind and pushed into him. Garbage call. I don't think his hands ever did hit Winstons helmet

Thats why I want the NFL to explain this one to us.
