Look, you know I've been critical of Mariota's play even when others have screamed at any hint of criticism. He's still developing, he's inconsistent, and he totally blew the Walker TD pass.  

Then maybe Robiskie should have stopped calling those,...  Ya think? Marcus has played against the Tampa2 since he was a RS freshman at Oregon, and curb stomped the guy that invented it.  To

Robiskie showed arrogance today or incompetence in not changing what was clearly not working. The Browns wanted to shut down the run game and force a injured Mariota to beat him. Robiskie consistently

Then your biased. Archeluta specifically called out Mariota's accuracy for the 3rd down woes, Mariota fans are saying he sucked or it was his worst game 

BTW, you know you are pretty desperate when you are citing Archeluta - a guys who barely knows who is playing in the game.

No way.  You are biased and back to your old ways of trying to sluff off these terrible gameplans on Mariota.  No one watching that game, other than you, thought Mariota was the reason for the poor offense.

I named what other people said, not me. tgo above........

It's the same reason Oman always defended Fisher. 

 

If you build a conservative offense that requires perfection, then you're going to eventually blow games, especially big games. Players have bad games, or just bad plays. Injuries are part of the game.

 

If an injury at WR to a rookie and a fumble in-game (which only resulted in 3 pts) excuse 4 quarters of offensive ineptitude, 3 ints resulting in no points, and a franchise QB in year 3 that either doesn't trust his WRs or can't find an open one, then something is wrong with how the offense is designed.

Mariota didn't play particularly well but it's a win

But he's being put in some terrible situations. The WRs this game were not getting open. The playcalling was incredibly predictable -- it was very much Fisher/McNai-esque where we'd call terrible plays 1-2 down, then ask our QB to make magic over and over again on 3rd down. We all know he's not some top-5 QB, so the coaches need to stop expecting him to be perfect to run their offense.

 

This offense requires perfection. A turnover or some missed 3rd down conversions, and it falls apart. When you play that way offensively, you have the sort of Ravens '08 losses. 

Already liked the post, but gotta call this one out specifically. Totally agree.

Dude, this isn't Fisherball, we're not watching the offense the team tried to build. We saw the offense lighting people up last year for long stretches and they lit up people at times this season. 

 

They drafted Davis and Taylor, Jonnu..... They signed Decker. Their plan was to attack down field. 

 

Mariota can barely move, Murray can barely run and Henry is inconsistent. Davis is out. 

 

Did GB lose today because their offensive game plan sucked? No

Marcus was pedestrian at best today. That's not to be unexpected do to the injury. Run game has sucked all year, Murray is at the end and Henry doesn't appear to know the pass pro, and for every tough run he makes he makes 3 soft ass runs. 

 

Teams run game leans on Marcus being mobile or a threat to be.

 

Defense reminds me of last year, not great, but playing well enough to give the offense a shot.

All-22 should be interesting this week. I didn’t see all these terrible passes watching it live that others are referencing, other than the would be Delanie-TD. 

Really that’s the only pass that stands out. He had a lot of passes to Walker and Decker that were perfectly thrown but knocked away.  I’m really interested to see these 5 passes that almost cost us the game.

The accuracy was off on a few but too much running on 1st down when the Brows were stacked against the run leaving 2nd and 3rd and long.  Play action more and take the easy 10 yard throws instead of getting into 3rd and long.  Even a 65% accurate QB is going to be 50-50 at best on 3rd and long and that is if the protection is there and a guy gets open. 

 

And how about the perfect pass to Decker in tight coverage where Decker needs to make a play?  That play puts us in FG range with plenty of time to add more yards.  The pass and play to Delanie in the endzone wasn't a perfect throw but give the defender some credit there.  Also, Taylor had a pass in his bread basket he dropped in tight coverage and Henry dropped an easy pass.  Mariota could have thrown for 300 yards with a little help on a couple of plays.  

 

Now last I checked this isn't college but the NFL.  You happily take 3 pt wins no matter who you are playing.    

This.
