  • You guys will like Mike Bell..he was our hardest running RB last year..why we let him walk i will never know....

  • LOVE IT!!!! Is it Christmas already cause the Eagles just gave us a gift. Sheldon Brown, Chris GoCong and now Mike Bell. We've only given up a 4th & 5th rounder, Alex Hall (who the Eagles cut), and Jerome Harrison. Bells only 27 so he has many years left, and has Superbowl experience. Cant wait till Sunday, finally will be able to run the ball when Hillis needs a breather.

    So that is like five in year and a half of a full time back? Don't know what everyone is creaming about that doesn't count for how many he put on the ground. I saw two in one game with my own eyes.

  • Good trade for the Browns. IMHO, getting rid of Harrison is a plus. Actually GETTING something for him is GREAT!

    Mike

  • If Bell can pass block, I already like him better than Harrison. You've got poor Peyton Hillis hobbling and fighting to stay in the game and this guy can't even bust a decent carry. There's a lot of "want to" in Hillis and I'm sorry but there isn't in Harrison. "The Ghost" must refer to his pass blocking ability where he'd turn invisible regularly.

    This guys total career carries are a little more that starting full time backs get in one season, and he only has 5 fumbles. Plus his two in one game came his rookie year, where you would expect a back to drop some balls.

  • Harrison fumbled a lot. maybe even more?

  • Guys...we still have James Davis as a speed back. I know he is loving this trade.

    Which is more reason why he shouldn't of put the ball on the ground 5 times in 370 plus carries.

    Proof? Not saying I like Harrison better, but like we just traded Ryan Leaf for J. Russell. Not a big deal or story guy. Just wait I'll be back here when he lays 2 out against the Stoolers. Yea he's a bigger back, that is about it. Wrong RB for the wrong O-Line. My mom (RIP) would run better with the chop blocking line they had in Denver at the time. Dude I was at every Bronco game when I lived there (free). Who the hell made Jake Plummer flick off the crowd? Me.

  • I am telling you straight up, that unless Mangini can solve his fumbling problems (which a SUPER BOWL winner) Mike Shannon could not do, it's a bad "trade". But I guess who gives a xxxx, he wasn't playing anyways, what do we have to lose?

    mike bell had one legitimate fumble last season. the 2nd fumble was from getting hit while he was taking the handoff. it had nothing to do with his ability to hold onto the ball and had more to do with the fact that our LT couldnt block to save his life

    I saw him fumble 10 times with the nest o line in football. Covered up by the same o line that was blocking for him.

    the browns got better.

    harrison has taken 6 carries over the past 3 weeks. mike bell didnt fit in the pass first offense in philly. but when the saints ran the ball, mike bell was the go to guy and in this browns offense where running the ball is key, it will help a ton to have another guy who runs north and south behind the best left side in all of football
