NGT- Case Keenum to start for the Browns Thursday

jvm52106 : 10/20/2021 11:11 am
night against the Broncos.

Browns already will be missing Chubb and Hunt at the RB spot and maybe missing OBJ and Jarvis Landry as well as a couple of OLinemen.

The Browns are decimated on the offensive...

side of the ball and Mayfield has the torn labrum.

So it makes sense to sit him and not get him further exposed to a Denver defense that will be on the attack. Let the veteran Keenum manage the game.

I'm actually surprised Cleveland is favored, btw.

Keenum could be an upgrade at QB

Mayfield has been playing like shit all year.

Beckham has yet to help, so he's no loss.

Beckham has fallen off the edge of the world. A FF owner tried to trade Beckham to me for my kicker and I practically laughed him off the trade page.
The Browns favored has to be more on the souring

of opinions on the Broncos- Bridgewater is hurt and the offense has struggled a lot lately.
And they will probably win...  
Dnew15 : 10/20/2021 12:23 pm : link
without their leading two RBs, without their QBs, minus their top two tackles, without their top WRs...

No one will make excuses ...

If they lose those will definitely be the excuses. I get your angle but it doesn’t really apply here.
I hear ya...

that's just the frustration typing :)
so is Mayfield done for the year?

I have heard rest won't heal his labrum one bit. It needs surgery.

The good thing is the injury is his left arm. But Mayfield is pretty fearless and gets hit a lot. So he struggles taking his foot of the gas pedal.

So he can play with it if he's wiser with his decisions.

The frustration stems from the fact the (ok - ok - IF) Browns are going to beat the Broncos w/ their JV squad and the NYG lost to them opening day with essentially all their horses.

It just shows the gap between the Giants roster and everybody else ...

Totally agree. I am not a believer in Mayfield at all. I think part of OBJ’s struggles, outside of injuries obviously, has do with the lack of connection with his QB.

I remember back in that draft process when a ton of the talking heads were saying the Browns would draft Josh Allen at #1. Then it started to shift about two weeks before the draft.

Bridgewater has looked like crap the last 3 games and now he's dinged up. They are probably thinking the browns defense and an adequate backup is still better than whomever trots out for the Broncos. As good as Chubb and Hunt are, I think their backups will be just fine behind that line
injuries are no excuse

when it's the Giants.....

but let's all sob for Cleveland. Right.

The Broncos were never good, the just played the Jets, Jags, and Giants to go 3-0. As soon as the started playing NFL teams, they're outclassed.
