In the random info department....was watching MLB Network and when they announced Christian Yelich as MVP he was surrounded by family and teammates. The MLB Network guys asked Yelich to introduce everyone there...Yelich is like...yeah here’s Ryan Braun, here’s Cain, my brother Sam, Baker Mayfield, my sister, Brent Suter.....

 

Harold Reynolds was like...did you say Baker Mayfield? Yelich said, yeah he’s just enjoying his off week

Mayfield has been pimping Yelich for the MVP for a while now. They trained together at some facility, or something, and became really good friends. Mayfield has been seen wearing Yelich's jersey.

I want no part of Mike McCarthy on the browns. Terrible terrible in-game decision making. 

Didn't see the game but I won't knock him for not going for it on 4th & 2 later in the game.

Well, it was 100% the wrong call. But ok.

He has been terrible for years. A Super Bowl really does give you a decades worth of leeway.

Exactly why was it the wrong call? Sabremetrics? They were on their own 33 yard line and Rodgers sucked on that drive. If he hits that receiver on 3rd down in stride (as I heard Rodgers made a terrible throw), it's a moot point. The coach has to take shit for not going for it because his "star" QB sucked ass?

Now don't get me wrong, I don't want him coming near the Browns sidelines and I'm sure he has sucked ass as a coach for years but I'm not beating him up for punting on 4th & 2 from his own 33 with over 4 minutes left in the game.

He's damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. If he doesn't go for it, the armchair metrics "coaches" are going to bash him and if he does go for it and misses, he probably gets fired this morning.

And as far as the "leeway" goes, when does some of this get pinned on Rodgers? I've heard the guy isn't the easiest teammate to deal with.

You didn’t watch the game, how can you say he sucked on that drive? Lol

it was 100% the wrong call. You only have one timeout and your D was getting gashed by Seattle in the second half. Keep the ball in Rodgers hands.

Because numerous national guys, who watched it and whose job it is to report on it, said he did. When I hear "it was Rodgers time to shine and he disappoints, going 3 & out" he sucked on THAT drive.

And like I said "damned if does, damned if he doesn't." If he follows YOUR advice and they don't get it, Seahawks drive in for a TD or run out the clock, he loses his job this morning.

Uhhh, or they hold them to a FG, and get the ball back to Rodgers down 6.

The defense couldn't get the ball back with over 4 minutes left and you're expecting GB's defense to hold them to a FG when they'd be 33-34 yards away from the end zone?

By the way, since you didn’t even watch the game, he had an 8 yard pass, an incomplete deep ball, and a ball batted down on 3rd and 2. That’s not sucking. Turn off your shitty radio stations.

You didn’t watch the game you fucking idiot! Yes, they COULD have held them to a fg and gotten the call back down 6. 

I also wouldn’t expect Rodgers to not get that 4th and 2. That’s why he’s so good, he gets those plays. Mccarthy is a moron who takes the ball out of his hands in every key situations.

You know this for sure, how? You said they had a "shitty defense" so whether they punt or lose the ball on a short field they still have a "shitty defense." So does the defense suddenly turn into the 85 Bears defense if they go for it on 4th & miss?

Can you read? I said they COULD have stopped them. It’s a possibility. 

I’m sure if you looked at the odds of winning going for it on 4th and 2 with Rodgers, vs punting it with one timeout, it’d be higher going for it on 4th. 

National guys are morons then.

One first down ended the game. What’s the difference where’s on the field that occurs? 4th and 2 controlling my own destiny or best case, 3-and-out, ball back with 1:40 to go. Needing the exact same yardage amount to go score. Give me 1 play for 2 yards (and he didn't suck lol, stop regurgitating bad takes) leaving 4 minutes on the clock versus 1:40 on the clock and a full set of downs.

And even if they don’t stop him, Seattle gonna try a 45-50 yarder which is no guarantee. Or get a 1st and end the game anyway. 

For you PFF guys...

Running back Nick Chubb, the No. 35 overall selection, is the top rated rookie running back out of 60 despite the presence of New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley. Barkley was the No. 2 overall selection. Chubb carries an 88.8 grade on Pro Football Focus.

Who is obsessed with Barkley? The BROWNS have the top ranked RB. How often does that happen? Might be obsessed with the Browns talent because I feel he was the better choice and I'm pleased that he's a beast.

BTW, has anyone heard Mayfield mic'd up during that Falcons game? Funny shit.

Obviously you and COA are, or you guys wouldn't constantly keep bringing him up....we have Chubb, the Giants have Barkley. Period. Of course you think we made the right choice because so far, it's working out--so how about we just enjoy our little successes while we have them, and hope they grow into big successes. Woof Woof.
