  • Glad we all like John Kelly.  Glad he's gainfully employed with us.  But he needs a lot of bad stuff to happen to our RB room if he's gonna wear a uniform on Sundays.

  • Mond took my Aggies to #4 overall final rating for 2020 losing early in the season to the eventual national champs Alabama. He was QB #2 behind Cousins last year. Smart kid and will play within the system. I think he's better than Brisset has shown thus far. Glad we are giving him a chance on the 53. Not sure he has a better arm than Rosen, but he is a quiet kind of leader who tries to follow the team concept without thinking he has to be in the spotlight. Maybe tia could take a peek, but if Minn. retained a lot of what Stef does here, then he's had a year in that system already backing up Cousins. If so then it will be a short learning curve.

  • A few Hot Takes ?

    1) Kellen Mond.. The Browns used a higher claim so the Eagles had to settle for QB Ian Book.. frankly our dear Mond..You'll need to process your reads quicker, and get the football out/tuck it/throw it away.. Hopefully ya become the next Teddy Twatwater/ because I'm already out of Doug Williams hopes/ with Jacoby Brisette on staff.. I hope the coaching staff is happy with the Baker-less ego QB room..     I'm gladly, taking a much needed vacation away from talking our QB room until Week 13 ?.. the past 8 months was plenty

    2) A Man named Blake Hance was claimed by the 49'ers ?..  Good Luck Blake ! 

    3) DE Isaac Rochell was waived to make room on the 53 for K.Mond... (are we keeping Mond inactive weekly?)

    4.) 12 spots are filled on the PS. 4 slots remain open..  a) still no FB/HB (Stanton).. b.) The Browns missed out on claiming a TE in Trevon Wesco off the Jets.. c.) and coaches have decided that a former guard in David Moore is a better fit playing DT ?‍♂️..

    With 4 slots left? Are we still in the WR3 business? If not? WE better Join in the WR3 David Bell train now? DT? TE3? FB?

    stay tuned,

    I'll take a look at some point this afternoon.  

    You're lucky I caught this though. Future reference, if anybody wants me to watch someone in particular, and I have time... please quote or tag me.  Otherwise I might miss it.

    Oh, I know you read everything tia.  ??️?

  • - QB School.  Fun to see him hit the rear end zone pylon with the ball without a bounce.. that's actually hard to do..

    Always interesting to see QB's that other organizations have-but-don't-want

    The over the middle throw with a guy pushing up in his face at the 16:57 mark is a thing of beauty. Considering the pressure he really put some zip on that ball around the defenders arm up in his face.

    For anybody wanting to tag along, I'll be on the browns board discord in 10 minutes, eating a post-workout meal and watching Kellen Mond. 

    Obviously just quoting you, Tex, letting you know that I'm giving him the due diligence. 

  • Each year during preseason, we see players who ball on the field and play lights out like Josh Dobbs, John Kelly, Wims, and Bradley. These players almost always get waived in favor of "established" players like Schwartz and Brissett, who basically have done and shown nothing. What the hell more do coaches have to see? Why don't they believe their own damn eyes??

    Jeez.

  • I mean just how many QB’s do we really need?

  • Glad these guys are back with the team.  Rosen's had some starting experience.

  • This guy nails it on Schwartz. Why is he even on the team when he adds nothing of value?

    Pretty much what I was saying about him. He is just a guy that runs fast, big deal. There are plenty of guys out there that can run fast and maybe return punts or kickoffs, or maybe guys that can run fast and actually catch, maybe just not as fast. This guy is just taking up a roster spot.

  • Well the giants just released Blake Martinez. Would be a nice pickup coming off a knee injury.

    I notice the requirements to stash someone on the practice squad are way more liberal than what they were a few years ago. Rosen certainly isn't doing this for the paycheck though.  🙂

    Tia corrected me, and it's worth rehashing... John Ross set the combine record in the 40, and where is he now?   From way back, my POV.  If track speed was the only thing that mattered, Reynaldo Nehemiah (world record hurdler with a tryout with the 49ers) would be in the HOF.

    Right.  However, some of us noticed early on that speed and quickness were things this new team of Steph & Berry keyed on.  It was 1st obvious at linebacker.

    Lol, he does have a few ints. But he is a solid lb, would be an upgrade over Phillips/walker. If his knee is back to ?.

    We're sentenced to the ego of the GM that fell in love with straight ahead speed only.  This could end up causing a huge rift between Berry and Stefanski when/if Berry starts getting in his ear about any inconsistencies with the passing game.

    Even worse, because he reached so bad on this guy - Andrew Berry has the mentality of "I'm going to show everyone who is right here."  Well, good luck with that one because in your position you should be able to differentiate football players from non-football players. Right now a lot of our most talented players we have weren't drafted or brought here by him such as: Nick Chubb, Denzel Ward, Myles Garrett, Joel Bitonio, Wyatt Teller, Kareem Hunt and I'll reach a little adding DPJ.

    This guy isn't only in our final 53 but he's being rewarded with reps with the starting line-up he's done ZERO to earn.  That horrible message from the top trickles all the way down to the players especially if/when the top starts questioning consistency and attitude.    Like the kid said in the movie Remember the Titans said "attitude reflects leadership!"   We need that again in Cleveland like a pyromaniac needs a box of matches...
