So far in game 2, two turnovers deep in our own territory leads to 10 points. Otherwise, it's a 6-3 Browns lead. It doesn't seem possible that an actual professional team can go this long without an offensive touchdown when it matters (last week's TD was nice, but well after the game was decided). In the preseason, this team ran a TON of screens, and most of them were pretty successfull. I understand that you don't want to run nearly as many in the regular season, but we ran 1 or 2 last week and no legitimate screen today. It makes no sense, especially when you finally get Harrison back.

Edwards has looked good this game. Cribbs has not. He whined all offseason about his contract, made one good play last week and this week he dropped a pass he should have caught in the first quarter in this one. He had one decent punt return and a couple of mediocre kick returns. AND he fumbled at his own 30. Try holding on to the ball, then you'll get a better contract.

The defense hasn't played too bad today. Except when it's third down, that is. Might be nice to show up for every down, though.

Marsupials do....cause they're fast! Gibson swings, and a fly ball to deep right field! This is gonna be a home run! Unbelievable! A home run for Gibson! And the Dodgers have won the game, 5 to 4; I don't believe what I just saw! I don't believe what I just saw! Last edited by Bobbuttons; 09-20-2009 at 07:18 PM.
