After keeping it so close and competing so well this is actually a hard loss to take.
Did I honestly expect the Browns to beat the Ravens? No.
Did I think Weeden would look very solid in a performance against an elite defense? No
But the thing is, for some reason, we started learning how to move the ball.
Haden being out really hurts us and it's more evident with each week he misses.
Call me a homer but you have to wonder how close this would have been if Haden was in. Teams complete 74% of their passes with Haden off the field, 57% with him on it.
Have to believe the Browns would play a lot more solid if we had our stud defensive player on the field.
D-Line looked good again, we get some amazing pressure and that's with Phil Taylor out. Rookie d-lineman Billy Winn came outta nowhere, Frosty Rucker looked good this season, Rubin and Sheard are beasts.
Trent Richardson is really solidifying himself as an NFL running back, he's developing a very good all-around game.
Travis Benjamin looks like he could be our playmaker if we develop him and he gets more consistent. Little/Norwood dropping balls of course but that's expected of such young players.
Possible to see this team looking very solid in a year or two.

We need legit receivers and we will be a solid team. Weeden looked alot better last night, stayed in the pocket and made some nice throws. He is getting better at not staring down his receivers as well

T-Rich...too good.

i really have no idea what to make of this.

Upset incoming tonight, Browns had a super solid offensive gameplan against the Ravens.
With Nicks out and nobody at RB as talented as Rice we should be able to contain the Giants offense and put Eli on his back all day.
This is going to be a good game, never count the Browns out, especially against good teams.
We play our best football when we're against he better teams.
This one will be close, another one score game, hopefully Weeden can replicate some of the things he did well against Baltimore.
We'll need our receivers to show up on those check downs with the Giants pass rush being so good.
T Rich should have a big game and I'm expecting a great game from Travis Benjamin.
This Giants secondary has a lot to prove still and we should be looking to take advantage.

I fully intend to write something about the game sometime today.
Game still has me highly disappointed and I'm not sure what all to talk about.
Looked good at times but you could definitely see our age while we were playing.

At last, I am home.

Team needs some leadership on it. Sucks losing T the end of games...

An ugly win but I will take it!
