    Doubtful. He is one of the most high character men to walk this Earth. Unless there is some fourth dimension we aren't seeing, I just think his lack of performance is mostly coincidental with what is going on around him.

    Dude, I'm a Browns fan, but to say he is "one of the most high character men to walk this Earth" is kind of strange. He is a football player, not a healer. I think his great days are over. He doesn't look like he has the fire anymore. Short life span. Lets trade him.

    To each their own. He is a great person in my opinion. I can't imagine him being on another team. It would feel like my girlfriend cheating on me.

    I guess I had this in mind when I started this topic as well.

    Listen I love everything Josh Cribbs stands for and appreciate that he walked on here and took the league by storm during our darkest days. But as a Browns fan, i we can get a positional Pro=bowl flirting starter and/or draft position for him, we might want to start taking a good look at his return ability shelf life.

    I couldn't wait for us to shed the Wilddawg offense today. It was ok to spell Colt here and there but when we ran it consecutively and into a 1st & 10 situations, that crossed the line. When Cribbs was ruled out for the game one part of me was glad so that we allowed Colt to get into some sort of rythm and we just played real football and got our future reps in.

  • Does anyone else remember Dante Hall? I am a Cribbs fan because of the way he handled the media last year when he was asked about making more money, but a dropoff in the production of return men, even the most accomplished ones, is not unprecedented. I hope he can continue to contribute to the organization; I was very proud of him last year on the field and off of it.

  • Cribbs still gives us a good return game and he is developing (I think is) our best receiver. I just don't think it is an option to get rid of him this year even if we wanted to especially since after him our only return men (I do not count Stuckey as a return man!) are Haden, who we are going to need to replace Wright, and Hillis, who does to much already.

    Returning isn't a game to game thing either. It's not like receiving where you can drift from your route a bit to find an open whole, or QB where you have to throw an accurate pass. It is based off of 3/4 physical skill and 1/4 luck, and I just think that the luck factor hasn't been there yet this year except on a few returns.

    Cribbs' new contract was heavy in incentives so he is losing a lot of money. The blocking on kickoffs is not as good as it was the past two years. It is very possible that he doesn't have as much energy with his expanded duties. I think he looks lighter than last year but that is just my opinion

  • I think he has narcolepsy

  • We should just reduce his role to being the returener + wild dawg guy. Maybe overburdening him with WR makes him a bit cautious knowing that he needs to be there on the field withing the next few minutes.

    That's disgusting showing and celebrating a player injured. Shame on you!

    Yes, your avatar with Ben laid out, and that Turkey Jones poster in your bedroom are much classier!
