Silver (and ebarrassing) lining....
we are not in the AFC North or AFC West
The Browns could go 10-6 and not even make playoffs

we could go 7-9 or even 6-10 and HOST a playoff game

Excuse him for an interception that didn’t happen? now we have gone to the weird place my friend.....

are you sure we want to go down this road?

Yeah, you are excusing Dak’s bad plays because someone else made a bad play. I’m assuming you’d do the same for his near INT’s. He was only spared by bad plays by the Browns defenders.

Here is the reality. If jerry was going to let Kellen Moore run the offense anyway he should have hired a defensive specialist as the HC.

instead we have McCarthy pretty much doing nothing while we give up a 40 or 50 burger each week.

Dak had 502 yds passing, 4 TD passes and team is still 1-3 because
Offense scored 0 pts in 2nd qtr
Offense scored 0 pts in 3rd qtr
Offense spent the whole 4th qtr climbing out of a 38-14 hole when he threw for most of the 500 yds. That's the real story
offense had 3 TOs just added but this is mostly on the defense we all get it but we cant seep the Tos under the rug..

Do you also excuse Dak for all the dropped INT’s? Your logic works both ways.
Those aren’t bad passes when you are getting your behind beaten and time is ticking off. The QB has to play more desperate, and the receivers have to take risks too. Dak protects the ball well in close games.

Cooper seemed like he pulled up on that route. Like he heard footsteps.

But if you can't get it, make sure the DB can't either. Live to fight another down.

However disappointing this season has been—and it’s been really disappointing here early—at least we can take some comfort in the fact that the coaching problem has been fixed.

We need to count the small blessings where we can find them.

I need you to expound on this further, please. I'll be Gehazi and you be Elisha and open up my eyes to see. Where's the "blessing"?

Listen......expecting a miracle comeback is the least of someone's concerns. Did you see the freaking defense out there or the fact the offense didn't score a point in 2 quarters? Why attack the fans who I don't know expect them to come back?

I saw a terrible defense on display and stopped watching it after the 3rd quarter. Anyone who thought a comeback was possible in the 4th quarter was just torturing themselves...1-3

Dak with 2 turnovers but of course everyone will say they were not his fault.
If you watch the plays, they weren't.

The fumble: Garrett absolutely destroys Garrett at the snap and is in the backfired before Dak gets through his dropback. Pocket collapses immediately, Dak goes to get the ball away but Garrett is already there for the strip.

The pick: Quick slant to Cooper. Coop is slow off the snap and runs a lazy route. If he had accelerated through the cur there is no way the Browns db undercuts the route for a pick and there's a decent chance his momentum takes him into the endzone. Perfect pass, sloppy route.

How are either of these plays on the QB?

Jaylon and Lawrence need to be released or traded. Griffin + Poe released at the end of the season. Cut ties with Zeke, and lets build up the Defense through the draft. Look for a nice Vet on the Oline in free agency

The back-2-back fumbles by Dak and Zeke were the turning point of this game. Other teams stars shine. Ours fumble.

Still, I know there's going to be homers out there saying "This loss is in no way on Dak." :rolleyes:
