Today, the Browns looked like a real football team. They lost the game, but there was reason to be encouraged.
Yes, there were too many dropped passes. Yes, there was D.A.’s interception at the goal line. Yes, there was some conservative play calling when the team got a lead.
But the team moved the ball, they stopped the Bengals on multiple occasions, they scored touchdowns…
But it’s too late.
This game would’ve meant a lot more had it been Week 1 or Week 2. Now the Browns are 0-4, not 0-1, or 0-2, or even 0-3.
In other words, had Alpha Dog started D.A. in Week 1, we’d all feel better right now than we do.
The season is all but lost - let’s see if D.A. can help Mangini save the regime. And finally, please don’t overemphasize interceptions…they aren’t good, I agree, but if a QB can’t move the ball then it really doesn’t matter. Sometimes you can’t succeed if you don’t take risks, and you don’t make mistakes.
Brett Favre, who’s only had one losing season in his career…I see you.
