Didn't watch the game, was traveling, which is probably a good thing. Hopefully this game was a wakeup call. If they lose to Dallas next week, then I'll be more concerned.
An Interception and a blocked FG in the last 3 minutes of the game, are the two plays that really kept the team from winning. An incomplete pass and you punt the ball, making Cleveland need to go the length of the field and score a TD to tie, but instead they get a 4 yd drive. Then McManus, who has missed 2 total kicks since last October, has a gimme FG blocked, you couldn't draw up any more misfortune than that.
Now, from what I'm reading on this thread, as bad as the offense played (10 pts) they held the Browns scoreless until under 4 minutes left in the game. If you count the 2 plays I mentioned above as duds 1 and 2 of the game, having 14 penalties would have to be #3, you just can't continue to shoot yourself in the foot with mental errors, and expect to win.
As for Studs, I think it's funny when people say there are no studs when the defense shuts out a team for 56 minutes, and forced a FG on a 1st and goal from the 1 yd line. Just because we lost, that doesn't mean there were guys who didn't play well. Also, you can't blame tge defense for giving up a TD after the interception that gave the Browns the ball on the 4 yd line.
Now just going but the stats, as I didn't watch the game:
1. Rashan Gary, 2 sacks, now 4.5 on the season, and probably the biggest beneficiary of Parsons on the field.
2. Quay Walker, 14 tackles, no other player has more than 6.
3. I'm going to give it to an offensive guy, Matthew Golden, 4 catches on 4 targets, 52 yds. After only having 2 catches total the 1st 2 weeks, it was a must to get him involved in the offense more, and overall, it looks like he made the most of those opportunities.
