Should Chubbs have taken a knee on the 1-yard line to run more time off the clock?

100%. There's no valor in winning by more than the 2 pts you were virtually guaranteed

His line is awful. As bad as the Bengals.

Tampa had all 3 timeouts and the two-minute warning. So that kills maybe 15 seconds, at the risk of allowing them to win with a FG instead of needing a touchdown.
I'm not sure that's a good tradeoff.

I agree. Furthermore the defense forced a 4th and 10...only to let Mayfield run for 15 when an LB just let him run right by him.

BTW, I know he's no super-star, but the Browns pulling the plug on him after an injury-riddled down year was really a poor choice. Especially for the likes of Watson.

I was in a text chain with a couple of my Panther-fan friends and they were bemoaning the success of Mayfield and Darnold since the Panthers dumped them.

To which I replied: They are finally having success BECAUSE they got away from the Panthers.

The Browns dumping Mayfield is one of the three best things to happen to him since he entered the NFL. The other two being the Panthers dumping him and him signing with Tampa.

They look sloppy and out of shape.

Looks like he's at the "alert the media" stage of frustration. Things are not going well.

Remember, this is the guy who turned down the Commanders only to join Kevin Warren and Ryan Poles a year later. I question his strategic thinking.

Counterpoint, it's two games in when the prior seasons had very little discipline or consequences, and the first two games were against teams who lost a collective 5 games last year.

Far be it from me to claim he will be successful but Andy Reid's first season taking over the 3-13 eagles with a newly drafted Donovan Mcnabb was...5-11.

Nick Sirriani started 2-5, kyle shanahan's first two seasons a combined ten wins.

R E L A X (but also panic because what fun is trusting any process)

No doubt. But, Ben has a large hill to climb. This organization is a joke, filled with incompetence at the top.

Hopefully that statement is "was" (besides Kevin Warren). But it's their burden of proof

I think Johnson definitely can still be a success. I just think they don't look all that prepared coming into the season. Maybe the learning process is longer than I think. Maybe they just need to see some things on tape versus real opponents.

I know this isn't you thinking that Sirriani had done anything expect allow himself to be dragged to a Super Bowl. Trent Dilfer of coaches.

I absolutely think Johnson can be an outstanding coach. I just don't think it will be a a Warren/Poles led team.

If ben johnson wants to allow himself to get dragged to a Super Bowl title or two, that's his business. I won't fault him
