A tip of the cap to: Peyton Hillis, Eric Mangini

[Legacy Fan]

Holy crap. We actually put 175 yds on the ground on a good Defense. 150 by Peyton Hillis. This is the kind of game Eric Mangini wanted/wants. He got a guy & a line that can do just that, so - a tip of the cap, boys.


A wag of the finger:
Guess. . . . . . .

Holy crap, Dbs. Yes you ran all over the vaunted Ravens defense for 3 quarters but, did you think they were going to give up and just let us win the game? Everyone who was watching the game on television knew Ray Lewis was busy crawling up his defense's assholes to get them to make the stop and win that game. Everyone in M&T stadium probably saw Ray Ray do it. Everyone but you.

Having Seneca throw bombs into the Baltimore Harbor all afternoon isn't going to keep 8 out of the box. You actually have to connect on a few of those. When you start on the 20 of what could have been a game winning drive, you don't call Peyton Hillis' # and have him run right into the back of our line on 1st down. Especially after you hold them to a FG on the previous drive. USE THE MOMENTUM. Baltimore's weakness on D is in their secondary. How about shaking the fuck out of Mohammed Massaquoi and have him make a play once this season? Call his number. Make him earn his paycheck and move the chains. Drag him across the middle of the field under the coverage when all 8 of Baltimore's front 7 come across the LOS. Then you run Hillis.

You call the wrong plays at the wrong time.

p.s. Anquan Boldin is old & past his prime. He's also slow and a headcase.

He is 29 years old.

Back to the topic at hand....Hillis has proven he is and should be the starter for the Browns. No question about it.

Against a Ratbird team that had given up only 105 yards per game to the Jets and Bengals...Hillis ran for 144 yards on only 22 carries (6.5 y/c). He also broke one for 48 yards (9 yards more than Harrison's best)...so much for needing blazing speed.

He combined that running attack with 7 receptions for 36 yards, accounting for 180 of the Browns 304 net yards (60%).

This guy is a talent...and if we ever put a QB in there with him...he will be even more dangerous.

Anyway..that is my 2 cents.

And not slow, nor past his prime. He scorched us for almost 4 TDs today.

I thought my sarcasm was pretty blatant. Guess I need a bigger hammer.

Great post, WPB. Definitely agree. Our only other RB on the team is wearing #16. (Excluding Hardesty - the unknown). Davis didn't really impress me much today.

Embedded it for ya Leg, hope you don't mind.

Hillis is a beast and I LOVED what I saw out of him. I kind of expected it to tell you the truth, as I think probably most of us did because of what we've seen out of him in part time duty.

I don't think we're all that far off from being a good team. One more solid off season could make us competitive. That is if we don't blow things up and go for a new coaching staff. Dabs still needs to prove himself through out the rest of the season as there are still some bone headed calls there, but over all it was a pretty good game today out of everybody coaching wise.

Hillis needs to be the primary back from here on out, period. He is everything I said he was and more. I called him being a fan favorite when we first got him but I gotta admit he has superseded my expectations. Dude is a badass, he hits the holes hard and fast, and when he gets to the second level he blows people up. We can ride this dude, big time. He makes tippy toes look like a used car salesman.
