With the way this season has gone, not playing a guy in Week 13 due to being "overwhelmed" just mind numbingly pisses me off. Kid had a ton of pass pro sets at a major D1. They talked about wanting him to play. I'd rather they say he isnt a good blocker than he would be "overwhelmed". If I was Chase Brown I would not be happy reading that.
Maybe pizzing Chase Brown off is what they were trying to do? lol
RB's come in the NFL a lot more prepared than many positions as well. I highly doubt Brown would be overwhelmed.
Dude has been hurt most of the season, I could understand if he isn't 100% on why not to get him any snaps and the fact we had
half the snaps we normally do in this game. But overwhelmed just doesn't make sense to me this late in the season. We have been
playing rookies all year and they have not been overwhelmed for the most part. I see no reason Chase Brown would be.
Give him some snaps to know what we have for the future behind the starting OL.
He is known to be a good pass catcher as well. Maybe they are scared about his ball security? That also would make sense as this
was probably his biggest problem in college. Tried to fight for extra yardage too much and defenders punched the ball out on him
far too much for my liking...

To advocate for more snaps for Chase Brown or Chuck Sizzle or Yoshi is not the same as tanking. We can get them more snaps WHILE still playing to win. It is just looking down the road a bit and saying that if we use this time now to discover what we have it allows a more informed approach to the postseason. Also all three of these players have excellent speed, and a big issue on offense is right now the only player with jets is Chase. I love Tyler and Trent but they are what they are, which is sure handed possession receivers.
Also, let's be real Browning needs to SERIOUSLY improve his awareness, reading the defense and reaction times if he is ever to be more than a spot backup. His missed reads directly cost us the game with the dumb INT and also standing like a rock and getting sacked while Yoshi beat his defender like a rented mule and was WIDE open - Burrow sees that and it is an easy TD. But we're stuck with him so we should make the best of it and get the kids the snaps.
Well said, we need to see more speed besides Chase and Chase Brown, Chuck Sizzle and especially Iosivas would provide it.
So true on Browning holding onto the ball way too long with actually good protection and just not seeing Iosivas coming free for a
potential TD. I saw it live from the broadcast point of view. Don't know what Browning was doing?
