    I'd be ok with him for the short term...

  • The raiders are in the hunt for a wild card spot, not waiving garrapolo so he could get picked by another afc contender. Same kinda deal with tannehill and the titans

    I just get the sad feeling berry will grab a practice squad nobody, and we’ll be banking on DTR and walker the rest of the way.

  • Nick Foles is the best looking official free agent at this time

    Just to be clear id greatly prefer Foles to what we have right now 

  • Tom Brady is a free agent. Just saying.

    If I were Berry I'd ask myself, What would it hurt to try ringing him up?

  • Tom Brady should do the right thing and get the Browns a Super Bowl win in honor of Jim Brown. Brady would look good in orange

  • So many have waxed so poetically about the shit sandwich that has been served to the Browns - players, coaches and fans. I've nothing further to add, but will quote on of the great intellects of our time, Daniel Simpson Day...

    "Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"

  • If America had to go to war led by general PJ Walker and admiral DTR I don't like our chances

  • All I know is if we get swept by the Steelers again I don't know if I can bear it.

    Rumors Tannenhill demanding a release. What do you guys think of him with this offense and defense compared to Ryan or Foles?

    But would the Titans release him is the question?  Definitely a better option than Ryan or Foles.

    We better have another qb on the roster before Sunday, though obviously it’s too short notice to start against Pittsburgh.

    DTR is fine against Pittsburgh, though. Can’t afford to baby him when the alternative is Walker throwing 5 picks.

    Berry is "looking".... Too bad Andy. As they say- you're a day late, and a dollar short. EDIT hot from NFL.com...  Should since they're starting DTR against the Steelers, they had better make sure they have Watt doubly accounted for on every play. If the season is going to go in the crapper, let's see what the rookie has.... We know what we have in Walker.  

    PS... Checking shoulder anatomy, the glenoid bone is what your shoulder socket sits in...  "Displaced" means it's not just fractured, but the parts of the bone aren't together anymore. I'm not going to Buy Berry's rose colored glasses assessment either. Shit, you can get surgical scarring, adhesions, or early onset arthritis.  ?

    So ? has a qb ever needed this kind of surgery before ? and if so how did he play afterwards ?

    Something stinks.

    1) Watson had a rotator cuff injury o n his right shoulder, but it healed.

    2) In his first game back he sustained a broken bone in the same shoulder?

    Translation: He had a broken bone all along. Sorry, but lightening doesn't strike twice.

    What a sad mess this is for Browns fans

    I saw where they are trying to say it had nothing to do with the first injury 

  • bet we could get baker back for a 3rd pick

    You're at higher risk for injury if you are already injured. There's inflammation and your body compensates in ways that fuck with good mechanics to avoid pain. That said, fracturing the glenoid is incredibly rare and takes a tremendous amount of force where your shoulder is typically getting pushed toward the torso. I personally don't think they're related or that a smaller fracture was hidden from Vegas. Given how hard he was hit, I wouldn't be surprised if this would've caused a glenoid fracture if he was completely healthy. 

    I think this is the hit that caused the injury. Matches the mechanism of injury for a glenoid fracture. Hopefully this doesn't end his throwing career. He's probably going to need it nailed in place. I don't even know of a single case of this happening to another QB. 

    Here's some technical reading on case studies of elite rugby/soccer athletes with the injury. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6887832/  I can't find a single article about a pro/college quarterback or baseball player with this injury. That's how rare it is.

  • Not sure what the big deal is Watson's stats are almost exactly the same as last year.

    Here's Watson's stats over his last three complete games:

    66 completions, 97 attempts (68.0% comp %), 721 yards, 5 touchdowns, 1 interception, 7.4 yds/att and 15 rushes for 75 yards. 

    Even injured, he was trending up.
