AussieTitanFan08 Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 sounding like Hue Jackson is going to go back to Kizer at QB this week. given our bi-polar start to the season, this game isn't going to be as easy as many think it will be. the Browns OL and DL are good enough to cause us a few problems. with Marcus likely to still be significantly limited with his mobility, we need to be careful not to let Garrett/Ogbah/Collins/Shelton dominate. it doesn't have to be pretty, just have to find a way to win, get to the bye 4-3 and allow the likes of Mariota/Murray/Davis/Cyprien to get healthier to attack the second half of the season.

Popular Post Jonboy Posted October 18, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Get a win here and we can exhale a bit over the Texans and Dolphins debacles. We'd be well-positioned to make a run in the 2nd half of the year, hopefully at full strength.

TheBukafax Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 If DLB looses versus a rookie QB twice.... I figured they'd go to Kizer. Easy reps for a rookie on our pass D. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
japan Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 (edited) Browns DL will be a challenge. Keeping Marcus clean may be more of a challenge. Edited October 18, 2017 by japan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justafan Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Deshone Kizer in three games thus far has a completion percentage hovering around 47%. He's thrown 2 TDs, both against Indy, and 5 INTs. His QB rating in all three games has been about 50. There is a reason they moved away from him in the first place. People should relax. I know we get nervous about rookie QBs who are mobile around here but this kid ain't Watson and Hue Jackson ain't BB. They have virtually no one to throw to. I mean their #1 is Kenny Britt. Their #2 is some dude most have never heard of. Isaiah Crowell has gotten worse as the season has gone on. He started out with like a 4.2 ypc and it has progressively gotten worse. The Browns are 0-6. They are in that position for damn good reason. Their QB simply is not very good. They average 15 points a game. They are looking at this defense with hope but the truth is this defense has done pretty well against below average offenses and they are opportunistic against an offense that tends to give up turnovers. I think they gain a lot of confidence this week and come away with at least two. On defense this ain't the Texans either. They have McCourty who we are very familiar with and all know has weaknesses. The secondary is average at best with a rookie starting at safety, Kindred and Taylor who are all okay. The front 4 are pretty solid and will likely be able to create some pressure on Mariota which is the only thing that worries me BUT Marcus was lights out against pressure this last week. There are holes in their LB corp. Schobert is pretty slow, they don't have the range to cover Walker and plug holes to stop Henry. In summary: the Browns are in a different stratosphere talent wise from the Titans. Hue Jackson is not a great coach. I expect the Titans to be very dominant this week and go into the bye 4-3. It would be a far greater disappointment to lose against the Browns than it was the Dolphins. This would be the worst loss in years for a team that is Hungry and coming off an emotional win at home where as the Browns are not prepared and you can see several of the players have already folded in for the season.

OILERMAN Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 The Browns are terrible, Kiser is terrible and the Browns defense is terrible. They really are looking at a potential 1 or 2 win season and winless isn't out of the question. Justafan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manziel was at least dynamic. It takes more than a piece or two on both of the lines to win games. You HAVE to have decent QB play or very very good rb play and they have neither. You need to be able to stop people when it counts and they have consistently proven you can't. You need to win the turnover battle and they have lost it all season long.

scine09 Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 This game scares the hell out of me. Big emotional win on a Monday night, going on the road against a team that on paper they should beat while being fairly significant favorites and on a short week. This is the type of game that teams like the Titans lose or struggle in. EagleEye, and pat 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyitsmeallen Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 This is one of those games the Titans are supposed to win, so let’s hope they stay fired up from the Monday win and don’t come out flat like we are so used to seeing Titans teams do. They need to come out and dominate the Browns from start to finish and go into the bye with momentum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakingeek Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Games like this scare me. The main reason being, after a big emotional win on a short week, the potential is there for a little let down. Browns are not a good team but bad teams beat good teams any given Sunday. We need to control the tempo/TOP with our running game and play some defense for a change. The Browns lost 3 games by a total of 9 points to the Steelers, Colts and Jets. Stay focused boys.

TeamRamrod Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 I'd honestly be surprised if this isn't a close game. Mariota needs to have a big game otherwise. Cant wait to watch Lewan vs Garrett Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepingTitan Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 (edited) It's time for this pass rush to tee off. Let the errant throws, batted balls, and rushed tips fall into the hands of our young secondary. AND NO MORE ORAKPO IN FUCKING CONTAIN!
