I agree with your assessment Dawg. We have too much talent to let this season waste away. If we sign Wentz or Ryan at least we're trying to save the season. Who knows, we may need one of those guys next year too!!!

Tampa Bay did it with Brady and the Rams did it with Stafford. First year with new teams Super Bowl wins!!! The Broncos did it with Peyton Manning to!!

Drake isn't a bad signing .. I like a Hunt/Drake/Strong/Ford RB room
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Are the Browns going to a wishbone or veer formation now?
This is hilarious.
You have the least productive WR room in the league
Yet you sign a RB to position that is Top 5 in the AFC
As a whole. Hunt Strong Ford now Drake.
Who's carries get affected the most out of those 3.

We are the second best rushing team in the NFL even without Chubb at 148.6 yards per game.
Dobbs is better than Walker. Quite a bit better actually. I've already posted the difference. Brissett had the Browns offense in the top 10 last year when he was QB. Reality is often times much different than perception.
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

Hypothetically, if we could get Patick Mahomes today don't you think we could go to the Super Bowl this year with the talent we have? I do especially if we had Nick!!

Who's carries get affected the most out of those 3. Yeah, if true, I don't understand the Drake signing at all. And I don't understand why Strong isn't getting more touches as he produces every time he touches the ball. So bring in a veteran to take more touches away from him? Again, if true, just odd.
LOL - The Rish will be upset with this news as well. KS just doesn't prioritize winning...

With the info we have to go on now, I think it's perfectly reasonable to say the DTR game was an aberration due to him having so little time/heads-up to prepare to go vs the Ravens. I'd imagine a little more time to throw to our WRs and put in an actual gameplan vs winging it would yield better results.
Going and getting someone like Dobbs isn't a bad idea either. I'm definitely on the "anyone but Walker" train. I didn't realize it was possible to earn a negative value for EPA since that means exactly what it sounds like. If the Browns do grab a vet QB today, I think it is also a pretty bad sign to where they think Watson is in his healing process, obviously.

LOL, you're probably right about KS Pit. His last game was just an aberration. It happens to the best of them. Of course, we never experience that here in Cleveland, at least not at the QB position LOL!!!!

Reality is often times much different than perception. Don't know where you got your numbers but since the Pittsburgh game we are averaging 127.2 yards a game, on 32.6 carries a game with a 3.9 yards per carry average. Tennessee 31 carries for 78 yards Baltimore 25 for 93 San Fran 34 for 160 (28 of which was by the WRs) Indy 33 for 150 (69 of which came on 1 play) Seattle 40 for 155 Brissett did a good job last year but this years offense isn't the same, so whose to say he would do as good a job.

On your list three of the five games listed were for more than 148 yards. Here's where it came from..... https://www.espn.com/nfl/stats/team/_/stat/rushingThis years offense as you call it was designed for Watson. It has been altered to fit the current backups. All that is going on here is we're seeing a more limited version of the playbook being used to fit the QB's who are playing. The play book is the same. All that is done any time a different QB is starting is that you design the calls you use from that playbook. The exact same thing would be done if Brissett was the starter.

Actually they in turn dropped 2 RB's from the practice squad when they made that move. I'm sometimes disappointed in what this FO does or doesn't do, but it's also part of their job to upgrade the roster anywhere they can. Even at the bottom end of it.

Not much in trades in the NFL.
It is harder to make deals in football. Contracts are different. Teams with four losses are not sure if they are in or out.
There has to be sellers. You can want to trade. That does not mean you will find a trade to be made.
