RE: Thoughts and concerns - Graphicguy - 12-20-2023 Two things..thought the same about the Charlie Jones play. Just run to your spot. In this case, somewhere around the 25 yard line. But, he was so worried about not seeing the ball. he slowed down to try to track it, I guess because he was too worried he'd miss it, which he did anyway. It's either there, or it's not. As far as Browning not reading the safeties, I don't know about that. I'm not in his head. I don't know what he's thinking. Listening to his interview yesterday (and yes, he's a humble breath of fresh air), he keeps it simple. He reads the defense and makes adjustments based on that. He's seen enough NFL football to know what he is and isn't seeing. I'm betting he's a 1,5000% smarter than the commentator who is criticizing him is.

That seems more speculation than anything. Heck Palmer said Lewis was a heck of a coach his gripe was with ownership. I think that's the difference when you're a golden armed California guy (Palmer) and a guy like Burrow, who had to suffer adversity at Ohio State to find success or Browning who has been cut and floating on PSs for years. I never could understand Palmer's beefs. Ownership gave him everything. Great WRs (hell, they even signed TO for him), OLs, money, etc was all his. So, why he was mad at ownership is beyond me. This entire city embraced him. He came across as a DIVA, particularly when he said he was "retiring". That was the last straw for me. Marvin? We should not be surprised with what we got after seeing the kind of players he wanted with the Ravens when he was the DC there. I liked ML. But, that eventually came back to bite him in the ass. He (and we) finally understand that character counts. To Marvin? Not so much! Look at this roster compared to Marvins and that fact becomes obvious.

Your optimistic take, and the defense they were playing is stout against the run. They ran 12 personnel more than they do with Joe on Saturday, but less than they had previously with Browning. I think it was Killer Goose that had a breakdown with the percentages on that in another thread. |
