I really didn't need that stress. I'm having flashbacks to Sipe and the Kardiac Kids. Gregg Williams, you dodged a bullet there by calling that stupid timeout.

Pass defense was pathetic but I have to give the run D credit. They made Lindsay a non-factor in this game.

Baker needs 5 TD's in the next two games to tie Manning & Wilson for the rookie TD pass record.

I can't remember the last time I saw the opposing qb get sacked by the Browns in a situation like that.

Again I say.......awesome.

This. I love the win, but that whole ending on offense was terrible coaching by Williams lol

I liked going for it on 4th. But the play call was bad. The spot was also horrendous. If it wasn’t a first, it was a foot short, tops. Needing an entire yard was bullshit.

Yeah, I didn't understand why the spot wasn't at least moved closer to the line to gain. They didn't have to give him a first down, but the replay clearly showed the spot on the field was wrong.

Also, Peppers has been a liability more often than not, but tonight he played great. Good team win, all around. It's nice going into Sunday without any pressure so you can just root hard against the Steelers and the Ravens.

I wonder what Peppers would look like as a LBer.

WHy not kick a FG and force them to score a TD????

Thank you, and Robinson is let off the hook (especially with that moronic time out)....nice W, and Mayfield’s a stud. Hope next Sunday’s game is a sellout.

I think the Cincy/Cleveland game will be a hated bloodbath of sorts and someone on Cincy really pisses off the Browns and their fan base big time...then 7 days later they’ll b their biggest fans and also Steelers will be pulling for the Browns the same way

IIRC the ball can only be moved if they move it past the line to gain since that is the reason for challenge/replay.

The spot can not be challenged, only if the first down was/was not achieved.

I could be wrong and thinking of college.

Nah. If you have the opportunity to make teams score a TD under 2 min you take it. It’s exponentially harder to score a td than a fg. The risk reward for running it on 4th down is not nearly good enough. You can say you like Williams guts or fire or attitude or whatever. But it’s a dumb coaching decision.

I simply look at it as the NFL nowadays. 2 minutes is a long time. I’d prefer not to give the ball back versus anything in 2018.

Yeah, especially wirh no timeouts. In the NFL it’s almost impossible to score a TD without being able to stop the clock under 2 min. Defenses can just play to keep you in bounds and nothing over the top. Peppers and the D bailed Williams out on that final drive.

Speaking of the defense, I saw a few posts bashing the defense and Gregg Williams last night. We’re we watching the same game?! The defense was incredible last night.
