    Warren with only 11 carries and was not a factor when they were trying to put the game away in the fourth quarter.

    Maybe it was because the game was not close in the second half and they have a game Thursday....

    It sounds like he has some type of back injury could be something to watch for TNF.

    I wasn't trying to imply it was bad, but as you indicated, its a lack of commitment to run. Id like to see Warren with at least 15 carries a game, maybe Gainwell getting 10+ and Kaleb getting 5+.

    This team is far from perfect. But give credit to Rodgers and the coaches in getting it to work well enough to grab wins.

    WR2? We don't need no stinking WR2. We got TE1, 2, and 3!!

    Just got done watching the game. Man... grounds crew really need to step it up. Bad everywhere.


    As far as the list goes?! One major talking point left out; Offensive Line played their best game of the season. They had to. Against a Defense not known for giving up many yards, doubly so against the run?! Definitely something to hold one's head high on.

    Rushing for over 100 Yards against the number 2 ranked Run Defense heading into the game isn't good?! If you are talking about from an individualistic standpoint, that is fine. I didn't expect too much from Kaleb Johnson; limited carries or not.


    As a team?! If one were to tell me this team would have gotten over 100 yards rushing against this Browns Front Seven, I wouldn't have believed them.


    Give the Offensive Line their props. They played their best game of the season.. and they have yet to reach their potential. That aspect should be very encouraging.

    That is possible. It is also possible that he isn't fully recovered from the knee injury that kept him out of the game against the Vikings. The game was not entirely out of reach when they stopped giving him the ball. Kaleb Johnson shouldn't be getting the first carry on consecutive drives when they are trying to put the game away, but that's what happened. Lead backs get the ball in those situations.

    The defense was impressive, especially with players going in and out of the game due to minor injuries.

    Herbig and Ramsey were explosive playmakers. Porter played well in his return.

    I thought the officiating was horrid. There were some dubious calls against the Steelers that could have turned the game, and the Browns got away with holding on the edge all game long. Claiming there was a receiver in the area on that ball Gabriel put in the stands was insane.

    What was interesting was three tight ends coming up big and Freiermuth wasn't one of them.

    Jones did his job. So did the entire offensive line. Yes, there was pressure on Rodgers, but that's going to happen against the Browns. To run the ball as well as they did was damn impressive.

    He didn't leave the line out entirely. He mentioned the job Jones did. For them to make Garrett disappear was extremely impressive.

    To be fair, Rodgers was under a fair amount of pressure and he avoided one by dumping the ball to a back for a big loss.

    Whomever is in charge of maintaining the chopped up full of pot holes football filed we play on should be fried. I do not care who his brother is.

    Well, sure - I don't know that anyone's arguing he was a better shadow than Ramsey.

    I thought the offensive playcalling was masterful. Whether this was Rodgers or Smith isn't clear but some of the PAs were simply outstanding, stunning a very good and well coached defense.

    Another shout-out to the offensive line. Dudes aren't perfect, but they're putting it together

    You are always so full of sunshine that you should have 110 sunscreen on. Flacco won’t have time against our pass rush. Bengals Oline is garbage.
