Already put them in.

Thanks for nothing.

None of these games interest me in the least, they all have backdoor cover written all over them. .

Sure but other than the DL the squad is the same and playing at a historic level. The biggest thing is these guys can play freely and not restricted. Schwartz’ system lets them do this. It doesn’t seem to matter who is injured. The system is the key.

It does help being healthy

health is huge but it never made any damn sense the soft ass coverage they played under Woods with 3 corners of the level that they have.

Yep, some of the best man CB’s play some man/zone/hybrid shit whatever you want to call that bullshit Woods’ “system”. Complete garbage and too complex. Let them play damn football

The only game this week that didn't go under was the dolphins game

Browns niners over by a half point and the Jags Colts went way over also. Still crazy week.

I just took a glance at the O/U this week so far

Only 2 games over 45 points

Chiefs/Chargers 48.5
Dolphins/Eagles 51.5

I'm not trying to down play what Schwartz has done. Only saying if we still had last year's DTs, no Z. Smith and the LBs after all the starters went down we would not be close to as good as we are. But we'd be much better with schwartz than if Woods was still here.

Now that is true....and he did that before all the LBs went down.

Will say, having Smith, Tomlinson and Harris (instead of Clowney, Togiai and Elliot) does allow for the DBs not to have to cover as long. But man are they good as a group.

If you had bet $100 on the under in every NFL game this year you are up $1,740.

I just saw a stat that the Browns were 24th in EPA last year in zone and 2nd in man.

There is no doubt he knew this but he's one of those "it's my system" guys.

Yup on a collision course with the Rangers

Dominant phils

Diamondbacks throwing subpar arms in games 3 and 4. Next home game should be in World Series.
