Browns Town

So let's see. Costly penalties. Dropped passes. Turnovers. That's sounds like the Browns of old.

Ok let's face it. The Browns aren't...um...very... good. There I said it! They had absolutely no offense in the first half (Bush had more yards than we did at halftime), they didn't stop the run at all (150 rushing yards allowed) and there's were just too many mental mistakes. The very first play from scrimmage for the Browns, which would have been a 74-yard touchdown pass to Braylon Edwards, was called back due to a holding call. Stuff like that shouldn't happen. After that, things started to go downhill.

On a crucial play in the first quarter, Frye threw a near-perfect throw to Dennis Northcutt. He had it read completely, but just dropped it. Another pass to Joe Jurevicius was caught, but once again was called back because of a holding call. Also, Joshua Cribbs dropped about two passes. Just an ugly showing by the Browns from top to bottom.

They tried to come back in the second half, but it was too little too late and their hopes were crushed when Edwards bobbled a pass right into the hands of a Saints defender. Their running games was almost completely ineffective, with the exception of Frye. Another thing that really tick me off is on the short yard downs, like a 3rd and 1 play, they ran a full house formation, but instead of putting Droughns in as the deep back, they put in Vickers. He couldn't even get a first down on a 3rd and 1. Can you imagine what Droughns would do in a full house formation?

The only bright spot of the day was KWII's first career touchdown catch. Even though it was in a losing effort. It was great to see. He has just begun the road back to becoming the player he is destined to be.

In all, I give the Browns a D grade. They did a good job staying in the game for awhile. Other than that, this was just another forgetable game.
