    Game balls

    None

    Goats:

    Freddie Kitchens continues to coach penalties. Does nothing but pass all over the field and the team has absolutely zero fight or care because it’s beyond clear they’ve quit on Kitchens

    Refs – not only was Njoku down, but if you are going to lie and call it an interception- you can’t give him the return yardage after he rolls off a Browns player (aka was touched)

    Brilliant move by Kitchens to not call a timeout and have a long snap for a punt happen in that wind with 3 timeouts left.

    1st half 19 drop backs for passes and 6 handoffs against the worst NFL rush D.

    Sign Kitchens to a 40 year extension!!!

    Who’s better at running the ball? He leads the NFL in rushing. Any RB with 120+ carries – he leads the nfl in YPA at 5.1. (He has 253 carries. The only RB above him have 115 carries max).

    I can’t find the 2019 yards after contact numbers but in 2018 he lead the NFL

    First, don’t change your argument. You said he’s the best RB in the NFL, then come back and ask who’s better at running the ball. Not the same question.

    For RBs, CMac and Dalvin Cook both have more scrimmage yards than Chubb, and Alvin Kamara and Saquon are also better receiver, making them more complete backs.

    I’m not knocking Chubb, but his receiving skills are not on par with the best in the league.

    He can block and can catch. We don’t use our RB in the pass game like those other teams (Monken is too busy passing out vertical route after vertical route with more vertical routes – even Tiki Barber pointed out yesterday how long our routes take to develop).

    I’ll change my statement – no one is better in the NFL at taking hand offs and running the ball than Nick Chubb. No one is worse in the NFL at stop the run than Cincinatti.

    How is it acceptable in any way shape or form for Chubb to only get 15 carries in that scenario?

    So, 15 is not the number you need to look at. We also have a guy in the backfield that led the NFL in rushing 2 years ago. Like him, love him, or hate him, Kareem Hunt is a part of this team and a part of the game plan. Factoring in his 9 carries, the real number you need to look at is 24. Is it acceptable to only have 24 carries in yesterday’s game??

    It’s below where it should be, there’s no arguing that. But unacceptable? I was pissed the first half, but the six or seven straight runs on the first drive after the half cooled me off.

    Given the game flow, we definitely should have had more carries, as many of those carries came at the end to run the clock out. But still, it’s not so far off as to be unacceptable, and certainly not so far off to give the coach a goat in a divisional win.

    By the way, here’s a full list of Browns HCs that beat the Ravens, Steelers, and Bengals in the same season since the return:

    The correlation is they understand you need to run to win. Bottom 2 teams in pass attempts in 2019 is Baltimore and San Fran. They are each top 5 rush attempts.

    Calling it a pass first league is illogical. You need a great QB. But you really need to run t he damn ball a lot

    It’s such a fun argument though. People take a side and act like the other is completely without merit. ‘Running is the only important thing, last year’s Superbowl champ was good at it.’ Both running and passing are important. Given the choice I’d rather be better at passing because it can get you out of bad situations. If you’re down 2 scores late you’re not going to run the ball. Also recent league rule changes have very much benefited the passing attack. If you say passing is not important then you are a fool. If you say running is not important then you are also a fool.

    Best way to tell is by second half stats. If a team is up, they generally run the ball more in the second half.

    We didn’t run at the end of Pittsburgh and the Rams and we lost. We didn’t run at the end of half with a nice lead on Seattle and we lost.

    So if we didn’t run the ball in the 1st half against Cincy and we won, but we didn’t run it at the end of 3 other games and lost, what does that prove? If you’re looking at it statistically you’ve just proven that running the ball has almost ZERO correlation to winning in those 4 games. If anything you’ve proven that running the ball in the 2nd half is much more important than running it in the 1st half. That kinda makes sense because the team that is winning usually runs the ball more in the 2nd half to protect their lead. The problem with your examples here Soup is that you’re just picking out games that fit your narrative. If I gave a shit I could pick out a ton of games that were won by passing the ball, but I don’t have to do that because everyone on this site but you knows how important the passing game is.

    Running the ball is important, but passing the ball WELL is more important.

    You’re using a game where the Colts passed it 47 times to 28 runs as proof that a Browns team that passed it 24 times to 24 runs didn’t run the ball enough.

    There is no reason to throw so many passes in the first half when we have 2 really good RBs, one of which is leading the league in rushing.

    Kitchens doesn’t know what he is doing so he gets a goat.

    Chubb gets a gameball.

    Greedy Williams gets a goat and shouldn’t even be starting. He isn’t as good as Mitchell but Kitchens doesn’t realize it.

    🤣 classic auto correct. Should’ve said “we should”

    When your coach has a plan in rainy and highly windy New England to come out throwing and against the worst rush defense in the NFL in the Bengals to come out throwing – it’s not an execution of his offense problem. It’s flat out the coaches inability to understand game situations

    How can you blame Kitchens for Greedy? That blame should fall on Wilks. I know people today like to blame the man in charge for everything, but I’m pretty confident Kitchens isn’t setting the defenses starting lineup and dictating whose playing.

    Kitchens purposely lost to the Steelers by benching Randall. Issues with this team begin with Kitchens. Properly “splitting” carries with Chubb and Hunt would be 20 for Chubb and 15 for Hunt at minimum. Not just limiting overall running plays like he seems to do.

    Its easy to blame the coach for starting a player who has sucked most of the year over a player who usually performs at least average when he is in there.

    And I am not saying that Chubb and Hunt should get close to the same amount of carries but we need to run the ball more regardless of who gets the ball between Chubb and Hunt.
