Week 1 - Cleveland Browns - Discussion Thread

[PhillyPhreak54]

5 turnovers
12 penalties
Shady McCoy lost 60yds on penalties

[Geowhizzer]

So much for my prediction about Henery.  He may not make any over 40.

His one good kick was 42 yards.

Good, I'm still on target for being right, then!

[Don Ho]

Was anyone else rooting for Vick to get injured? I definitely was

You defiinitely were not the only one.

[ice grillin you]

the one thing that needed to happen for a sb win this year was that vick was a real qb....he clearly is not....he is the biggest pos ive ever seen....take a god damn three step drop and get rid of it...its absolutely infuriating how long he holds onto the ball

the most dishearting thing about him tho is that he cant run an nfl offense AND he doesnt have explosiveness anymore....thus they are farged on every level with him

all that said they will beat the ravens....all week is is going to be a shtein show on wip and calls for foles....the expectations are going to be rock bottom going into next week but somehow that is the game they will win

[MDS]

yea no

worthless old slow vick vs. a semi decent defense and a semi decent offense = abortion city

[ice grillin you]

andy will get his head out of his ass and run shady early

the offensive line came together by the end of todays game

ravens defense is incredibly overrated

birds win!

[MDS]

i feel so bad for shady and so bad for eagles fans in general

hes the best rb in the nfl and probably the best this awful franchise will ever have and his career is going to be wasted because of a fat moronic head coach, his mexican offensive line coach defensive coordinator and a pos midget turnover machine of a quarterback

farg this team

I agree with all of this but they'll still lose. Like I said in the prediction thread Vick isn't making through next game. You're also no factoring the stupidity of this team. This is the exact same team as last season with a few new players.

as much as i love shady....and hes literally on a par with the buddy era players for me....i hate michael vick that much

all of vicks quotes about how hard hes worked and how much hes studied and how he spent the off season in philly is all a big fat farging crock of shtein.....go away you pos

[MDS]

seriously he is not capable of not turning the ball over

they cant win like this because the defense sucks, the kicking game isnt good enough and the line is a joke but they ought to turn into a safe defense and running team.

feed shady...play field position...dont give away points...take your big play shots with pimp and hope that works

because throwing the ball 50 times a game cannot possibly work with vick

[Zanshin]

I figured they'd look bad as part of their opening day tradition...but not that bad. But really, it was mostly Vick and the receivers that solidified that crappy look.

[Eagaholic]

Two things AR/MM should have learned over the last 10 or so years. One is that when the QB is just getting totally killed and is having a bad game because of it, don't keep getting him hammered. Run the goddam ball. Having an allpro RB probably won't hurt matters.
The other thing is that when Vick gets rattled his game goes right down the shteinter. So, in that case maybe run the goddam ball. Having an ALL PRO rb probably won't hurt matters. I'm guessing maybe others have had similar thoughts.

x1000.  They have enough with Maclin/Jackson/Celek that if they lean on Shady and the D remains competent that they should get plays through the air despite Vick. 

56 passes.  Go farg yourself.

Absolutely... I was thinking the same watching him throw pick after pick, holding onto the ball forever, throwing the ball across his body into the middle of the field, sidearming passes, not seeing LB's dropping right in front of him.... this cat hasn't changed at all. 2010 clearly just caught the league off guard because ever since the end of that year when they adjusted to him, he's been straight doo... doo.

[Zanshin]

He looked awful....just awful.
