Cleveland Browns (Finally drafting Buckeyes)

Maybe I watch too much of the Browns defense, but I feel like I see a lot of WR's running around open thanks to scheme rather than coverage. I don't know how Baker sees the below pre-snap read and decides that he's throwing it to OBJ. Perhaps he underthrew OBJ by 5 yards leading to the pick, but Landry looks wide open for an easy 10 yard gain on the other side.

Yes, Landry was open when he settled on the backside. In hindsight, not the worst decision by Baker. OBJ has 1 on 1 with a step on the CB and the safety can't recover. It was a (very) poor throw. You'll notice a lot of the commentary and articles since this game have been about the coaches praising Baker on getting his eyes in the right place and being more within the offense. This is a classic example. It isn't an OBJ issue, it's a Baker issue. Wanting to use your Lambo is great, but for your daily commute I recommend sticking with the Honda - Landry in this case. The throw to juice is high percentage but Baker LOVES the flashy shit and always has. If you go back the next 4-5 games past this point, you'll see Baker locking onto Landry at times as well with some near disastrous results that are fortunate bounces the Browns way at times. Like I said, it's a Baker issue. One he's still working the knots out of.

Cleveland Browns @Browns

We were informed this morning that Head Coach Kevin Stefanski, two additional members of the coaching staff and two players have tested positive for COVID-19. Our contingency planning calls for Special Teams Coordinator Mike Priefer to serve as the acting Head Coach.

Couldn't be more Browns than that. Let me guess the other positive tests-

Players: Baker and Chubb although Chubb and Hunt, Baker and Keenum or any 2 OL are options as well
Coaches: AVP and Woods just to make sure we don't have anyone to call plays

*these are just guesses not facts
:smash:

I would say the only good thing about this happening now is they have the whole week to gameplan, but this is likely the tip of the iceberg and we'll have no on field practices this week and 15 more players out for positive or contact by Sunday. Hopefully any players that are positive passed it on to some Steelers on Sunday so they can deal with this shit.

Bitonio really sucks the most. Longest tenured Brown and misses his first playoff game. Hopefully the team uses it to rally and get him a game in week 2. I don't like the Harris v. Heyward matchup in the middle. I'm assuming DPJ will still be out with a concussion so they'll need 2 WR's to step up.
