quick thoughts on this epic battle between afc super bowl contenders

Good stuff as always Oma.
I hope getting those DBs back helps because I have to tell you, to me, the story of the game other than Brissetts strong play was how appallingly open the
Cleveland receivers were. If their QB was more accurate and if the recievers
didn't drop like 10 balls they would have hung 50 on us easily. Even if we
get those DBs back the fact remains that our linebackers can't cover a sick
mule on the way to the glue factory.
Another point, Moore. He made a stupid st play last week. This week he made
another one on the gunner play and another(roughing) that should have been
called. Why is he here?
I thought Moncrief had a couple of nice catches early. But then when Cleves
d adjusted to Hilton he didn't/couldn't take up the slack. At this point it's
hard to justify giving him another contract. As I said last week, I think we
need a culture change at WR.
Doyel did not have a good game. He had a terrible drop and a fumble and
like Moncrief did not pick up the slack when Hilton was taken out by the
Browns D.
As for the Offensive pass interference penalties they are being called a lot
more this year. I thought the Packers were screwed on that last week against
Atlanta. I was pleased with the officiating this week. At the risk of infuriating
the officiating police on this board, I think the Colts too often come out on the
short end with the refs so I was happy with what transpired today.
