The Official Browns vs Bengals Game Thread...

[LostInDaJungle]

Shoved their Chubb right up the gap. Too much penetration.

[LostInDaJungle]

Love the shot of Hue Jackson... "Is this the right playbook??"

[SouthPaw]

The worst part is. They will come out on O and go three and out.

It is remarkable just how completely ineffective our d-line is.  As the announcers said, these guys are way too well compensated to be playing this poorly.  I mean, we all know the linebackers are probably the worst part of our D but good lord with this bad of a line I don't know if any LB could play effectively.

[fluhartz]

such a ho hum easy drive for the Browns..

 

So fucking tired of watching the same shit year after year.

 

[fluhartz]

nice return... oh wait

[Cricket]

Damn Andy Dalton, already has us down 7-0.

They're getting tackled and are afraid to hit the QB.   No point investing in a DL with these arena league rules.

It's 6 of one half a dozen of another.... But it's staggering how ineffective the line has been.

How about this nugget from the article:

 

" Some within the Bengals organizations believed that former defensive coordinator Teryl Austin was being groomed for that position (head coach) this season, but with the team's defense performing at a historically poor rate, Lewis made the difficult decision to fire Austin, who is well regarded in NFL circles and has interviewed for numerous head coaching jobs himself."

 

lol

 

so pathetic

True enough.  I guess the future of d-lines is have a bunch of massive slobs to create a wall for the LB's to tackle guys a couple yards past the LOS

[fluhartz]

Ross caught it and didn't get hurt... yay

[HavePityPlease]

Wow, Darren Simmons is absolutely blowing his stack over what we can only assume was a completely made up BS call.  You notice the flags came out only after Erickson broke loose?  And way behind the play?

[fluhartz]

nice play

[HavePityPlease]

Ok I don't think Mixon made that but what is with the horrible spot?

[fluhartz]

lol... fucking penalties 

[HavePityPlease]

lol guy slams on top of Mixon way after he's down - that's fine.  This league blows

At least we know one coach on our sideline gives a damn.   I wonder if he's content as a STC? Too much fire for Milquetoast Mike?

[fluhartz]

so terrible

Our defense is a tonic for ailing offenses.

And non ailing offenses. Pretty much any offense.

[whodey365]

Pretty sure Mixon hurt after a late hit that wasnt called. Sweet.

This team is truly failing in every aspect of the game. That's not Teryl Austin, and it's not Bill Lazor, and it's not Darren Simmons.

Time to start working our way up the chain. I've been a huge supporter of Marvin Lewis, but this team stinks up from the ground up. I know a new GM is too much to ask, but any reasonable club would fire their GM too for some of the dumb decisions that have led us to this point.
