Week 1: Philadelphia Eagles @ Cleveland Browns

[IlliniM1ke]

Really encouraging to see Weeden going for the endzone on his second pass of the game, overthrew MoMass but still a nice sight for what has been a very bland offense forever.

Run blocking off to a bad start, Eagles are just shoving us into our backfield.

3rd and long defense is in prime Browns form

GO Browns.

Except for Haden, everyone else is playing an amazing game on defense.

The refs are letting Vick die.

Yup that was an awesome run, wish our OL would start opening some holes so he could do more of it, the Eagles are just imposing their will and pushing us into our backfield so Trent is getting stuffed.

GTFO, Weeden. I don't care how bad our OL is, he is making some really poor decisions.

He has time to pass but he is making some awful decisions and forcing way too much.

This is why were screwed this year if we can't establish the run, if teams aren't respecting the run then they don't have to stack the box, more guys in coverage, Weeden doesn't seem to care hes still trying to force it in.

It is crucial that we get the run game going or we don't stand a chance this year, Weeden isn't making those tough throws at this stage of his career, he needs to be a game manager type who can go deep on occasion but without a run game hes just going to continue forcing what hes doing now.

We have a chance at this game but not if Weeden keeps throwing into double coverage, if Trent could break off a couple nice runs (unlikely with our run blocking) we have a shot, if not I think Weeden might throw a couple more picks.
