sois Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 I'm even more pissed at ZT now for playing a hobbled Burrow and flushing the first 4 games of the season. We could be one game back or better if he wasn't incompetent. Time to harrass Minchew and try to squeeze into the playoffs. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_B Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 So Mahomes is the only QB1 we face the rest of the regular season. Colts - Minchew Vikings - Dobbs Steelers (will Picket be back by then?) - Tribusky Chiefs - Mahomes Browns - Flacco The big two question marks in my mind are can Browning do what he did last night the rest of the season, and can the defense step up and not lose to back up QBs? If both are answered positively we have a real shot at the playoffs. Both are big questions marks right now though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel better about Jake Browning's back up than I did Joe Burrow's until last night. no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_B Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 CTB on IR is a 4 week injury. Just in time for him to come off for the Chiefs game, but the way we usually play that means hell be back for the Browns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_B Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 Running the playoff machine we can not afford to lose any of the games against all these backup QBs if we want in, otherwise its not likely to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones I have run put "must wins" at Stealers and/or KC. They are all "must wins" of course, but the scenarios I ran do not indicate a lot of "outside help" needed. Getting rid of the Mules and the Colts open up paths. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Mahomes gets hurt we're not winning that game. Must win the rest for sure. I really hope we don't get all this hope and end up missing the playoffs and not get a chance at a top tackle. That would turn my stomach. Just win the games we can win. Defense has GOT to play better though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree on the d chiefs offensive line is not that good and their receiving core weaker than it's been the experts said that we would lose last night 99.9 % of them and we should have won by at least 10 points we gave then a gift td with Boyd's int and Dax should have either intercepted or knocked down that ball that was luckily caught for a TD I just wish browning would have played the first four games we made have won 2 but who knows give props to burrow he's a gamer and helping out browning during the game is awesome 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If both are answered positively we have a real shot at the playoffs. Both are big questions marks right now though. This win was huge and definitely keeps us in the running and I like our chances to run the table if the Bengals can play inspired like they did last night, which will be tough but not impossible. The Colts and Vikings are very winnable games because I believe our rosters are better from top to bottom and both of those teams are starting backups...Minchew is turnover-prone and we've already beaten Dobbs once this year. The Stealers and Chiefs will be where the rubber hits the road as they have been tough opponents and have match-up problems and better coaching staffs. If the Bengals can split those 2 games they have a real shot at the playoffs. The Browns is a wild card game because we don't know who the starting QB will be and they could be completely out of the race by then if they continue to play like the have been recently, especially with Myles Garrett banged up. Flacco is washed up and the backups aren't much better so they will have to figure that situation out. It will be interesting to see how they build off this last game, hopefully the defense can fix it's issues and the offense can continue to execute at a high level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Dub Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 Flacco is the QB for the Browns? Joe "Elite-ish" Flacco? Somehow I missed that. That's funny. Cover the RB out of the backfield and we should be OK against Cap'n Checkdown. Browns have had our # tho for some bizarre reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 14 teams making the playoffs, the highest ranking non-playoff team would select at 18, right? So, not in the 20’s, but not a whole lot better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are now filters you can apply to your artwork that subtly change a few pixels here & there without it being noticeable to the eye, but it completely scrambles the AI logic. Pretty cool. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
