Payton, it was on you.

What on earth possessed Payton to go for a pass play? Surely if we ran the ball we would have still been in field goal range, the clock would have run down more and they would have needed a touchdown to win. I am sorry to say this but Payton, you're an idiot.

that's absurd, that was the right call. We needed a first

No, if we hit a field goal (which we were just in range for) we would have been up by 4, making the Browns go for a TD and not just a field goal.

Right, but they got to our 11 yard line anyway, and if we kick off they don't start at their 4 yard line. So no way, he made the right call

If we hit a field goal we would have had to kick off, resulting in a completely different drive, your point is invalid.

No that's absurd ... Ingram is averaging 10 YPC and we get cute ? He runs it to get us back in it then throws it in the red zone. Like I said even if the passes work at times , it's only asking for trouble.

Ingram and Robinson deserve a better team. Hell Bush and Ivory are succeeding elsewhere I'm sure they will too.

SP what's your deal ? This ain't arena

We ran the ball 27 times today, holy ****.... it was 3-5, you pass the ball to win by getting a first down

Agree with spkb. Why in the world would we not go for a first down? No problem at all throwing it there. Fact is our defense allowed the browns to go 85 yards at the end of the game. SP wasn't on the field with this pathetic defense.

Idiotic logic ... Take away Cleveland's pick 6 as we should've been running it anyway and this game is over. We throw WAAAAAAAY TO FRICKIN MUCH

We ran 27 times and threw 40, we ****ing had 67 plays. If not for the half ending drive where we had to throw due to clock and no timeouts, we probably would have thrown a few more times than ran today
