Maybe. I seem to remember a lot of Keenum scrambling and finding open receivers.S197 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 4:22 pmA big part is they simply can't run. 4th and inches is a problem for this line let alone getting tough goalline yards.PurpleMustReign wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 2:53 pm
That's another area Keenum seemed to excel for whatever the reason. Cousins hasn't quite gotten the production in there.
And just to pile on ... JDF's reputation was that of a red zone savant.S197 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 2:11 pmWhat's worse is redzone work was a major emphasis during camp. These days you don't get a lot of live contact practice so where you dedicate your time is very important. The fact that we got very little out of that investment speaks volumes.Cliff wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 9:12 am
I think this is another case where the stats are misleading though. That Browns team was 3-13 and was outscored 278-432 on the season. That tells me two things. First, that Browns team was in a lot of "garbage time" situations for nearly all of the 4th quarter. Second, despite all of those yards it only translated to 278 points so he has a problem getting it into the end zone. The inability to to get into the end zone was a problem for him here too.
