Not gonna try and take away from other analysis, but mine is:

Coaches made some really weird 4th down decisions by going for it twice when a challenge would’ve given them a first.

Offense had a normal adjustment game after losing their #1 target, but could have made a couple plays turn out better. No turnovers by the offense, which is great, but they should’ve capitalized on the 4 turnovers caused by the defense.

Defense was pretty much lights out until the 4th when the normal conversion from attack to prevent happens, giving up the expected points but holding when needed.

Special teams was mid and probably our weakest performance of the year that didn’t lead to points for the other team.

Statistically, no. Not a huge deal because that’s just a “cherry-on-top” stat of having the kicker everyone else would trade for in a heartbeat.

Just in case anyone is wondering, I’m releasing this into CC-0 Public Domain. My gift to the city of Cleveland.

I actually said this in another post. Just because we’re the AFCN and we have to throw as many wrenches into the tie-breaker calculations as possible.

It will only be that low with 0 offensive TDs, which we’ve already seen at least once this season from both teams.

I’m probably gonna watch the CLE/PIT game just to root for a tie.

I’m waiting for it to run 3 consecutive screens inside our 20 for confirmation.

We weren’t talking about it because we’re afraid of jinxing ourselves, yo.

Less people in line, more reps for the rest…make your Mark

Well, if I’m not imagining history…isn’t an injury to Hurst the exact reason Mandrews became the TE1 and Hurst got traded? I seem to recall that being the story. Don’t worry, I’m not implying we’ll ever let Mandrews wear another jersey on purpose. I’m just saying that sometimes the next man up makes his shot worth it.

This is going to sound extremely rude, but I mean it in the funniest way you’ll take it. I think you need to upgrade from Internet Explorer.

At that age, probably Dragon Ass.

I would, except I know what they do behind the scenes. There are pre-made stat/fact sheets and entire video segments pre-made so they can do things like that. Wonder how long they’ve been getting those ready.

I can see the acceptable places for wearing a Rice jersey being a very small list.

Good choice.

Excuse me. Before you declare that, have you discussed it with Governor Macdonald and Lt. Governor Smith?

Wonder if it’s a metacarpal fracture splint.

I think Dexter needs to work on updating his photo. I like the braids. Personal opinion.

Whoever it is, I just hope they put their money on the Ravens or we’re toast.
