it does sound dumb, but there has to be some reason. its not like Hardesty went out and ran for 100+ yards last week in a break out performance and deserves this much more playing time.SportsAndLady;919627 wrote:Is this announcer serious? He will not let up on this Hillis/Hardesty thing until he starts a controversy that simply isn't there.
"do you think it's possible...that Shurmur is upset with Hillis not playing last week b/c of the strep?"
That's fucking bullshit

There is a rumor that Hillis didn't play last week because of a contract problem. Don't think it is true.

I'm just saying it's not the announcers job to start rumors like that. Sure, it might look fishy...but you don't just speculate on shit like that as an announcer. Halftime/post game shows? Sure. But not while announcing the damn game.Glory Days;919639 wrote:it does sound dumb, but there has to be some reason. its not like Hardesty went out and ran for 100+ yards last week in a break out performance and deserves this much more playing time.

i know the titans have eased up on the throttle but it's pretty obvious that this offense works the best at a fast tempo or preferably in the no-huddle

Throwing a 2 yard screen on 3rd and 9 down 18 in the fourth epitomizes all that is wrong with this Cleveland Browns team.

Come on we can throw it downfield every now and then, smh. Also, I still dont like how they just went away from the running game. No way the Browns win many games with Colt passing 40+ times a game with this type of offense.

^^especially when those 40 pass attempts are just little dump offs!

They can run routes clear to Akron, they still will check down to the TE/RB

Yards per attempt today is just pathetic. I can't watch a whole season of this.

This is a case of the box score not telling the real story of just how bad the play really was in McCoy's case.

On my phone, so I will keep this short. Being at the game...you can really appreciate a good qb...he doesn't miss open receivers....colt does. Little was open several times, but colt just dumps it off. The defense is undisciplined and lazy with their tackling. This team should be ashamed of their effort today

I've never seen a team not even attempt to throw the ball down field....even run oriented teams throw the deep ball more. I'm just very confused with the playcalling.
