It's not hindsight. I think we all wanted them to feed Warren more after that touchdown. I don't understand how the coaches didn't see that.
They had him on one slant, but one of the Browns' linemen deflected the pass.
They don't trust him, which is just making things worse. How the hell is he supposed to trust himself if they are going to shackle him like that?
Then just run Warren inside or off tackle three times. The way he was going, that's going to get them five yards, which is enough to bring out...
Both teams played like they didn't trust their quarterback. That made sense for the Browns. He is a rookie who wasn't supposed to play at all this...
The first three were the key. That lost the game.
He was terrible again, but so was Canada. He kept trying screens even though the Browns were all over them all game long. He also didn't give...
I think he was talking about the drive before that, when the completion to Pickens gave them a first down at the Cleveland 40.
Warren only carried the ball nine times today. Yes, failing consistently on third down was part of the problem, but that isn't nearly enough.
That is what I wrote. He had time on all three plays. Johnson dropped the first one. I have no idea what happened on second down. Either Johnson...
That is one thing I won't put on Pickett. The play-calling on that possession was horrible. Once they got the completion to Pickens, the next play...
The Browns did nothing on defense during that last possession. They did not get pressure on Pickett on any of those plays. Their coverage was...
Agreed. That second-down play should have been a run by Warren. If he breaks it, great, you're on your way. If not, you probably have to take it...
The Steelers have had an elite running game the last three weeks. Pickett isn't taking advantage.
The defense gave up 13 points despite no help from the offense all day. I have no problem with what they did, even failing on that last drive....
Johnson also might have played a terrible game. At the very least, he dropped one on that final possession. At the very least, that burns some...
Don't get me wrong. I don't think Canada did a good job today and the Browns have a great defense, but Pickett had two chances to win the game and...
The rookie badly outplayed Pickett and that is why the Steelers lost.
Ball game. ****.
The defense might give up the game-winning score here, but the offense lost this game.
