We will never know.......but that drop by Johnson was huge

I blame this loss on Haden. **** this is a long season ahead.

Maybe this is enough to make a change in coaches responsibilities on offense.

I wonder how many Steeler fans are sticking around to watch the post game?

Hey who wants to shoot a game of pool? 81 is making a batch of loser nachos and will be bringing them down to the SN basement soon. Anyone going to the 7-11? I need a 12 pack of whatever is cold.

If the offense could score one second half Td we probably win that… but its just broken badly… 4th straight year.. 4.5 really

No Big Ben to lead any 2 min offense to win it. That's been replaced with three and outs.

 

[slashsteel]

Time to let Canada go. No excuses he needs canned.

Jacoby Brissett > Trubisky. That’s the reality. Pickett can’t be any worse. What do we have to lose? Should have put him in after the half.

With the schedule we have after the Jets if we put Pickett in we risk a rookie QB getting his brains beat in running a crappy offense and losing all his confidence.

Other than that we have nothing to lose.

Mitch played well enough to win this game

 

[Djfan]

What an ending

Bullshit how they trotted that offense out without changes. No attempt at even trying to provide a spark? Bullshit. ******* bullshit.

That's the standard that is the standard

Really? 17 points is enough?

Mitch played well enough to win this game

Did he? He left a decent amount of plays on the field. He played like a backup nothing more.

That's how low expectations have become.

He played well enough for about half a quarter.
It’s not all his fault but he is never going to be the guy that lifts this team over the finish line when he needs to.

36-23 minutes of possession tonight

 

[SteelerInLebanon]

Go back to where I posted the beginning of the second half. The reason they were on the field too much was because they gave up two 80-yard 12+ play drives in the first two drives of the half. You can't pin that on the offense in the least.
Yes, the offense needs to stay on the field longer. But when the defense has all of halftime, and watches a 14-play drive to start the half, they need to get off the field, not give up two consecutive long drives.

Sure they do, but even then we were still close. It doesn't matter what the defense does if the offense can't possess the ball and score. We could and should have scored more than 23. The defense wasn't great but they were good enough if the offense does anything in the second half. This is a browns team built to do exactly what they did. Yet even with a poor performance by the defense we had chances late. The offense has to take advantage of those chances not go three consecutive three and outs.

deep balls like that are not his strengths. He is better catching the ball over the middle with room to run. Pickens and Claypool should be getting those deep throws.

 

[str8liner]

What an ending

That's the standard that is the standard

And will be the standard, most likely long after you and I are dead and gone....

Maybe this year will be the year the standard finally ends up sub .500

Glad it was on shamazon and I didn't get the opportunity to watch the standard.

That was the deciding factor. Just not good enough.

He just got paid like an elite receiver, but he can’t run down the field…JHC

he wasnt Ben, but he played well enough to win. DJ dropped a catchable. Claypool dropped a ball.

 

[BLITZ]

it should be. but we also missed a field goal. so that would have been 20. if the defense plays a bit better it would be a win

JHC. If I said 2+2=4 would you share your know it all wisdom with that too? All I said that the drop by Johnson was potentially huge. You can’t ******* see that?
