Wasn't just Brown. The whole line struggled on that last play. Not so sure our division is going to be that weak either. Titans look tough. |

We look to be a .500 team right now. Losing Arians is a huge loss and I'm concerned with some of these decisions. The D wasn't great, but still gave us a chance to win. The decision making on offense cost us today. I expect that we'll look much better, but our schedule isn't favorable...49ers, Seahawks, Chargers, Broncos, with a bye week against the Jags over the next several weeks...we really needed a W today. |

I see where youre coming from. I think the biggest issue today was, again, the slumber of the offense for two whole quarters. They put up points and then just left the stadium. All these yards and not enough points. Then the Oline failed when it mattered most. I am definitely afraid of SF and Seattle. However, im not going to write us off and call us a nonplayoff team. I still think we make it. Its been two games... Edited by IronPony1965, Sep 15 2013, 04:30 PM.

Yep we can make playoffs, but not the way we have played last two weeks. Only given up 41 points in 2 games but only scored 41 points Offense line is biggest concern. Pep Hamilton is my second biggest concern |

Just expect a few bridge jumpers after the Broncos game, because our record could easily be 2-5 going into the bye week. I think we'll win 7 to 10 games this season and we should be competitive in most of our games. Like you pointed out, the AFC isn't stacked, so the playoffs aren't out of the question being .500 or better. We just shot ourselves in the foot today, because Miami will be one of those teams fighting for a wildcard. |

Not to mention, AVs missed FG ended up putting us in a bind at the end. Also the fact Fleeners TD was wiped off the board due to some BS call made after he scored. |

Our play calling was awful last season, too, so we're not exactly missing Arians. Pagano's post-game presser: http://chirb.it/AssFa6 |

I think it certainly hurts not having his experience though...he did have to balance head coaching duties as well. I'm much more concerned about what I've seen so far this season, but in all fairness it has only been a couple of games. |

In second half until our last drive we had 70 yards. In 1st half we had 300 yards. Finished with 128 yards in second half with 3 points scored |

Yeah, not really missing Arians that much. I would say the play calling is less predictable this season so far. I'll give Pep until mid-season before I form an opinion, but he certainly hasn't impressed. |

I know Pep has pro coaching experience, but he will still be learning on the go as the offensive coordinator. I do like the fact that he wants a more balanced approach, so we will see. Arians did rely too much on the air attack, but he did a heck of a job keeping the team focused last year while trying to balance his responsibilities...at least to me, this is a loss. |

I liked Arians, and I think that with a few less Donnie Avery drops, Bruce would have looked better. I'm not ready yet to call Pep a schlep, but I've been underwhelmed so far. |
