To be fair, they were playing a much better defense than we were. Many offenses look bad against the Ravens defense. It’s much too early to write them off yet, but Sanchez looks like he hasn’t improved at all from last year.
Yeah, the Jets were blitzing all the time in the first half so he was left in single coverage many times. I thought Cromartie looked worse; he made a few stupid penalties.
thats always the danger with him. the lapses in judgement. he had at least 1 PI on him that I can remember. I remember at least 2-3 against the jets but not who committed them. did he commit that one that was right near the end zone?
He looked pretty bad. They went at him every single time, but in fairness for whatever reason Rexy had him in isolation against Boldin while his entire defense was blitzing.
I think Dilfer was correct (hurts me to say) when he talked about the triangle bracket on those WRs. Berry was responsible for Gates if he came inside, and simply was out of position.
He is a rookie too, let’s give him a bit before we hate on him too hard.
I was making a joke since he was a rookie…If he wasn’t a rookie, I wouldn’t have called it a ‘rookie mistake’. Plus, from what I can remember, he wasn’t being hit, or not being touched that hard, so it was just a case of concentration at hanging onto the ball.
I was born in KC, the Chiefs are easily the biggest deal around there. Great home crowd, and one of the older style stadiums leads to a great home field advantage.
I always liked them because I liked Marty S. from his days as Browns coach. Then I started to feel sorry for them when every year they would do awesome in the regular season and lose their first game in the playoffs. Marty is the greatest regular season coach evah . . . Playoffs, not so much.
Also, I will never forget Marty in the 1998 season with a quote even better than the quote I have as my sig, it was something like, “Elvis Grbac is our starting quarterback.” YOu’d have to remember the context of the quote to know how idiotic it was.
Yea, I remember that. I followed the chiefs during the stretch the Browns were out of the league, and Rich Gannon had played great all season and led the Chiefs to a 13-3 record. Marty decides to play a cold Grbac his first game back from injury which is the first game after the bye.
I remember when the SBN San Diego guy came here last year and tried to tell us that Norv was a better coach than Marty. I had to contain my laughter and refrain from comment after that.
Can’t catch, can’t line up correctly.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
hopefully this game well provide us with a fresh batch of animated .gifs to make….
davus - September 13, 2010
ha! he can’t even block FGs right.
davus - September 13, 2010
I loved the dumbfounded look on his face when he saw the flag thrown.
bbstirrd - September 13, 2010
It’s 8:42 pm est and Braylon Edwards still su—-Stop it’s the Remix!!!!! Now he sucks on field goals!!
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
I predict a BE BlundEr. Wow, that was lame.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
That was embarrassing.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Wow, Braylon is bad. No catches, but one first down allowed for running into the kicker?
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
Stuckey, the WR we acquired in the deal for Bray, has more catches.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
Sadly, I need no reminder.
Bernie19Kosar - September 13, 2010
What’s he up to now?
StuckInPa - September 14, 2010
He had 4 last week I believe.
Now that we are apparently running the Air Coryell offense, I am starting to think I am done.
Bernie19Kosar - September 14, 2010
I think after this loss, that might change. I’m not the coach, though.
StuckInPa - September 14, 2010
Mike Leach secretly took control of Mangini’s body.
rufio - September 14, 2010
After locking his mind in a WC.
Villeslgr - September 14, 2010
Damn, that hurt me.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Cotchery has played Braylonesque the last few drives.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Ha! The New York it’s 10:34 and Braylon Edwards still suckses.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Wow, what does Rex have to say now?
That is the worst Jets tean in like the last 10 years. I mean, OUR offense was better than that. OURS
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Two words. Mark Sanchez.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
I like this game.
Two words. Trade down.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Well played.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
I am so glad that we didn’t pick him last year.
Buckeye Brad - September 13, 2010
To be fair, they were playing a much better defense than we were. Many offenses look bad against the Ravens defense. It’s much too early to write them off yet, but Sanchez looks like he hasn’t improved at all from last year.
Buckeye Brad - September 13, 2010
Sanchez looked at the check down every play within 2 seconds.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
I see a regression from Sanchez and their WRs aren’t really anything special, as we all know.
Maybe Holmes because he’s a SB MVP.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Holmes is a good WR.
TheDriveStillHurts - September 14, 2010
(Though I realize he is suspended.)
TheDriveStillHurts - September 14, 2010
to be fair to us, at least we looked more disciplined.
bross09 - September 13, 2010
Do I hear Dilfer’s voice commentating the SD v. KC game?
Ugh.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Hellz yeah!! Fantasy Points!!1
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Awesome. The one player I need to do suck. F you Jamaal Charles.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
Sorry about that.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
He'll make up for it this coming Sunday
;-)
kabrink - September 14, 2010
I’ve read in a couple of different places that Kyle Wilson looked awful. True?
golanbatrac - September 13, 2010
He got picked on. He broke up a touchdown but gave up some big plays as well. I think he was mostly in single when he was getting beat though.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Yeah, the Jets were blitzing all the time in the first half so he was left in single coverage many times. I thought Cromartie looked worse; he made a few stupid penalties.
Buckeye Brad - September 13, 2010
He’s a rookie. I didn’t think he looked awful, but they definitely picked on him. Haden’s looking like the much better pick, especially at 7.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
totally agree. With revis and Cromartie, he is the one thats gonna get picked on.
bross09 - September 13, 2010
Cromartie stayed true to form. Made a play, but also made so many dumb plays that hurt the team more in the long run.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
bross09 - September 13, 2010
He looked pretty bad. They went at him every single time, but in fairness for whatever reason Rexy had him in isolation against Boldin while his entire defense was blitzing.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
That’s just stupid. Boldin’s getting up there in years, but still, if anyone on that Ravens team requires double coverage, it’s him.
golanbatrac - September 13, 2010
Boldin and Tomlinson were the only two capable offensive players on the field in that game.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
Ray Rice as well.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
Haha. Cross post.
golanbatrac - September 13, 2010
Did Rice look as bad as his stats suggest, or did the Jets sell out to stop him.
golanbatrac - September 13, 2010
I think there was a sell out
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
I think the Jets just played some good D overall.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
The Jets are just very tough against the run. He had no place to run.
Buckeye Brad - September 14, 2010
Fantasywise, I could live with Shonn Greene sitting the bench and Tomlinson getting the bulk of the carries.
golanbatrac - September 13, 2010
Greene sucked, fumbled twice, dropped a pass on one of their last drives and I think he had a penalty.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Soo, KC isn’t looking so shitty right now. Next week will be interesting to say the least.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
maybe San Diego is also that mediocre.
bross09 - September 13, 2010
Maybe they’ll miss Jackson? Matthews was looking good up until that fumble.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
So I take it Jones is the starter? I don’t like this.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
As long as they throw it to Dwayne Bowe, I’m happy.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
Wanted to note that Eric Berry was responsible for guarding Gates on the SD TD and was nowhere near him. Pretty poor coverage or effort.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
I think Dilfer was correct (hurts me to say) when he talked about the triangle bracket on those WRs. Berry was responsible for Gates if he came inside, and simply was out of position.
He is a rookie too, let’s give him a bit before we hate on him too hard.
rufio - September 14, 2010
I am going to hate from day 1 to make me feel better about missing out.
Roger Dorn - September 14, 2010
Crennel sighting!
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
Haha, I love this. The Tyson logo in the background is all too fitting.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
F$%@ this rain.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
KC looks scary on Offense and so far Eric Berry looks bad.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
I don’t know, you must have missed him holding on that kick off.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Bad as in suckish.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Yeah I know. He looked pretty good holding that kick.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
What do you mean holding that kick?
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
He held the kick off.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
He had to hold the ball for the kick off after their touchdown, because the ball was getting blown off the tee.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
The announcers made a joke about having their number one pick holding for kick offs.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Oh! Haha.
Still, he’s no T.J. Ward or Joe Haden so far.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
I didn’t even think to compare Ward to him. Wow. Oh, and how has Earl Thomas looked? Anybody know?
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
damn…rookie mistake by matthews…granted, that may be b/c of the rain.
bross09 - September 13, 2010
and a nice effort by cassel. I knew he was overrated after that one season in NE, but that was a great effort to get the first down.
bross09 - September 13, 2010
How is a fumble a rookie mistake?
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
I was making a joke since he was a rookie…If he wasn’t a rookie, I wouldn’t have called it a ‘rookie mistake’. Plus, from what I can remember, he wasn’t being hit, or not being touched that hard, so it was just a case of concentration at hanging onto the ball.
bross09 - September 13, 2010
Uh huh…
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
do you still not get it?
bross09 - September 13, 2010
Anybody else rooting for KC. I hate that bitch Rivers.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
KC has an awesome crowd. Sounds like the Old Browns Stadium.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
I find it weird they’d have such a large fanbase.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Who else do you root for out there?
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
I was born in KC, the Chiefs are easily the biggest deal around there. Great home crowd, and one of the older style stadiums leads to a great home field advantage.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
I hate their colors but Len Dawson won a SB with them so I suppose they hold a special place in my heart.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
I always liked them because I liked Marty S. from his days as Browns coach. Then I started to feel sorry for them when every year they would do awesome in the regular season and lose their first game in the playoffs. Marty is the greatest regular season coach evah . . . Playoffs, not so much.
Also, I will never forget Marty in the 1998 season with a quote even better than the quote I have as my sig, it was something like, “Elvis Grbac is our starting quarterback.” YOu’d have to remember the context of the quote to know how idiotic it was.
TheDriveStillHurts - September 14, 2010
Yea, I remember that. I followed the chiefs during the stretch the Browns were out of the league, and Rich Gannon had played great all season and led the Chiefs to a 13-3 record. Marty decides to play a cold Grbac his first game back from injury which is the first game after the bye.
Roger Dorn - September 14, 2010
you mean because the Browns colors are cool?
sorry, I kid
kabrink - September 14, 2010
The Browns’ colors are amazing.
SpecialBrownie - September 14, 2010
And the most unique.
North Coast Flea - September 15, 2010
true!
kabrink - September 15, 2010
Arrowhead is a much better stadium than that billion dollar bingo parlor Jerry Jones built.
golanbatrac - September 13, 2010
I hate that prick, too. I hope that scoreboard falls on top of the Cowgirls.
(Not for real, that would be f-ed up, just making a point.)
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
…uh.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
I like Rivers.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Damn, Cassell just made someone his b$#$@$
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Sucks for Matthews. The Chiefs smell blood.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Reason #141 for cheerleaders in the NFL. Rain.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
I hope we get our running game established or I fear for JD.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
All we have to do is actually hand it off. We know we can do it.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
and hold on to it
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
We’ve got three good backs. One of them should be able to hold on.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
This is awesome. Except KC is scaring me.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
Screw this 3rd down Charles crap.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Is McCluster getting any targets or touches?
golanbatrac - September 13, 2010
No.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
He had one, mostly been on kicks and Jones getting first and second downs.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
There you go.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
I was just getting ready to type that. Damn they have alot of speed.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Except for that fumble, Matthews looks good, really quick.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Can somebody tell me why Romeo could never give us a defense like that?
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
In a word, Phil.
golanbatrac - September 13, 2010
He wasn’t the coordinator. He didn’t have two high first round picks on the DL, one in the LB corps, and another in the secondary? Maybe?
rufio - September 14, 2010
McCluster with a TD.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
DAMN! 94 yard punt return.
bross09 - September 13, 2010
Yay! I need him to get in the mix before the bye weeks.
golanbatrac - September 13, 2010
This is great. I can only imagine how those fans feel. No really, I can only imagine.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
Kansas City scares me overall now…
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
When we beat them it will all of a sudden be impressive.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
So how much better will we look when we beat them again?
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
Prediction: This is Norv Turner’s last year.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
I remember when the SBN San Diego guy came here last year and tried to tell us that Norv was a better coach than Marty. I had to contain my laughter and refrain from comment after that.
Roger Dorn - September 13, 2010
I couldn’t believe Marty was fired.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
Why isn’t he coaching anywhere now?
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
I think age.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
That would be a good guess.
StuckInPa - September 13, 2010
We know how great Marty is first hand.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
This game beats the mess out of that first one. I can’t even tell what’s going on, shenanigans all over the field.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Bowe blew a good pass.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Great catch. Give the damn ball to Charles.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
They are now and so far he’s dominating.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Thank you.
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Can someone tell me what the hand meshing means that a QB does in hurry up?
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Ha. Hurry up?
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
No, Cuz Cassel did it with the clock stopped, unless he was asked Haley if that’s what he should be doing…
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Maybe it means go on the snap and not anything audible for the receivers and backs?
Villeslgr - September 13, 2010
Maybe muddle huddle?
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
Her’s the Church, here’s the steeple. Open the doors and see all the people.
golanbatrac - September 13, 2010
Ha.
SpecialBrownie - September 13, 2010
I think you are referring to a sign to huddle?
rufio - September 14, 2010
Romeo’s spot dropping, 3man rush cover 3 is starting to hurt KC, I think.
rufio - September 14, 2010
…And Saban’s pattern matching may be helping them.
rufio - September 14, 2010
Rivers is amusing when he acts like a whiney girl.
Simmsinns - September 14, 2010
damn. I just realized this game is still on. i was about to go to bed. now i just gotta check the last 39 seconds…
KC WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bross09 - September 14, 2010
Next week isn’t going to be easy…
