Future Uncertain For Browns Offense, Including Colt Mccoy

We have something going. Little has promise. Haden, sheard, Taylor, ward, hillis, cribbs. We have another draft like we have had the past two years and this team will show actual signs of frickin improvement. Guaranteed. This year is the year for our qb. If McCoy has the stuff then our team gets upgraded big time. But if not, shit looks like were playing qb roullete in the draft.....again.

100 that.

i really think heckert is the gem of the FO of the past what 3 yrs is it now or did holmgren hire him?

love his drafts to date for the browns. the players you mentioned plus the two on the OL should be the core moving forward.

let's hope mccoy can pull it together BUT i blame his regression on the new offensive scheme. what i saw of him and hillis last year....if we had the same momentum with an upgraded OL (heckert blew it on lavauo and letting vickers go btw) and little starting, a mix of momass and even a little mix of hardesty running (not catching) i wouldn't be 'whining' so much.

so far haven't seen shit.

I have posted this comment in almost every freakin thread about our front office, and NOBODY HAS A ANSWER. WHo would you hire that we can get???

Our front office is fine, jesus F christ some of you are babies on here...

H&H have been here 1.5 yrs...Green Bay took 5 yrs not 2 yrs, Seattle too 7 yrs not 2 yrs...

Shut up already...you make me throw up a little every time you type same baby shit every thread

FO is fine.

Hillis and cribs are not playmakers. Our QB, RB, WR, LB, secondary sucks.

[TypicalBrowns]

We think hillis blows because this teams performance has blown. We may have a worse line than shitsburgh. (who do we have besides Thomas, mack?...no one) any rb would blow with this line. And vickers is sorely missed, where did he go to anyway? Did he retire? Why in the hell did we

Not resign one of the hardest hitting fbs in the league?

Has anyone seen the Rams this year with the same personal, except for.....

Our FO drafted an unproven rookie and houston picked up our beast FB.

I said it when it happened and i'll say it again, bad move. Some guys wanted to give the rookie a chance before we write him off. Can't write him off now, he's all we have. Sure give him a chance, but we could have kept Vickers another year while our new FB learned the ropes and subbed in on a couple plays.

[tampadawgs]

I 100% agree that our front office made a mistake with vickers, and I think its a bigger mistake than people think..Vickers was a beast. How is our draft picks unproven???

I think our 2010 draft class is for the most part proven, and our 2011 draft class, well from the games they have played looked pretty good to me, but wouldnt all 2011 draft picks unproven...Julio Jones who some of want to suck off is unproven, and he is not having a huge year with a better QB!!!!

Let's talk about that statistic that McCoy is next to last in Yards per Reception. Remember, this team is trying to run Shurmur's form of the WCO. The WCO is predicated on short passes and on YAC. So naturally in this system the passes are going to be short....but when is the last time we have seen any YAC by anyone catching the ball this year? They are always dropped immediately upon making a catch. There is rarely any separation and there is no breakaway speed anywhere.

The best guy at getting YAC has been Payton Hillis, and he has been out hurt half the year.

Now you people after five games are realizing this. I'm glad to see this tho.

Should have expected that like we talked about before week 1

you're saying pat shurmur was the reason they won those games last year? 7-9?

they beat the likes of the cardinals, panthers, 49ers (last year sucked), broncos and seahawks.

this year 0-5 so far. lest's see who've they've played? eagles, giants, ravens, redskins and packers.

i'd love to see the shurmur led browns do any better against that schedule this year.

btw, the rams 'personnel' isn't much better than the browns albeit bradford (looks as shitty as colt sometimes) and jackson.

edit: even though we beat some of the best last year we also lost to some scrubs. no excuses.

My biggest concern when he talked about evaluation is the fact that while he is trying to evaluate the QB and the offense, not once does he say that he will also be evaluating the Head Coach. His admission that Shurmur might need an OC is scary. It is almost like confessing that a new HC is in over his heads and that this Front Office did not even have the common sense to see that commin .. What if Shurmur is nothing more than a good OC who cannot cut it at the HC level ? Are we going to use next year to evaluate that ? While they are evaluating all this crap, can they please also evaluate if the ticket prices are worth this crap ?

[TypicalBrowns]

Colt hasn't played a full NFL season yet. let him play this year out. I have a feeling being compared to a young drew brees is a good thing. And colt statistically is the most consistent qb the browns have had in years( not that that's saying much) but it is a positive. Yes I'm a homer most of the time, but colt can develop with time, if we are patient with him. Unlike the 20 past qbs the browns have had.
