    He's probably wondering when Cleveland fans became such homos.

    Haha. That was good, Pumpkin.

    Really? It smacked of complete ignorance to me. You both seem to be saying that if you are a football fan that that status disqualifies you from being learned and literate.

    Nope. It's implying that many on here posting are whiney biatches who won't even give a new coach 5 games before they are calling for him to be fired.

  • Yeah, Gip. I didn't take it in reference to yours or Cal's posts.

    As Michael Clarke Duncan says- "don't assume. It makes an asshole out of yourself."

    I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride

    yeah, to think that shurmur will be fired after this season is crazy. it goes against everything Holmgren said the Browns were lacking - consistency in the organization

  • i guess consistently sucking is a good thing then....

    I read this article and I couldn't help but wonder what Josh Cribbs was trying to say. I read that he is willing to only play special teams, but why is that? Very interesting. I have a few theories but I thought I would rather see what you all thought the deeper meaning is here.

    good article, thanks for sharing it B57.

    personally i think it's crystal clear what JC was saying...as well as his motivation for saying it.

    that play, where Ford returned the ball 101 yards for a TD:

    Cribbs wasn't on the field.

    i actually couldn't believe he wasn't out there on that play either. i rewound that play at least 10X and scoured the field...but no Cribbs. I had/have no idea why>>i simply chalked it up to tightness or some temporary ailment...but now it appears it was all by design.

    and apparently, not being out there frustrated the hell out of Josh too. in fact, in the big picture that decision to "save his energy for offensive plays" or whatever the motivation was, very well may have cost them the game.

    he is and always has been the Browns best gunner and open field tackler, bar none. additionally he helps direct the young guys into position and with his vision and experience he can read the opponent better than anyone else on the field.

    not to pile on the current regime but Mangini and Seeley understood Cribbs' contributions to the team thoroughly. while he was being incorporated into the offense the past several years, effort was taken to ensure he was still able to perform the duties that got him where he is today>>which namely are obviously gunning/coverage and returns.

    currently i am of the impression mr. pat shurmur is still unaware of who/what he's got where, and is still feeling out his new team...but unfortunately for us he appears to be a shit evaluator taboot.

    because going back in time and retaining Mangini for 2011 is obviously not an option, nor is reuniting him with Rob Ryan, Seeley, and the rest of that staff present day...we are essentially left with what we've got. and what we've got is a passive President who really needs to get off his ass and begin putting his touch on an organization that can't get over the hump.

    seriously Mike, face it your protege is in the weeds. it's time to step up and earn your pay. this was why you were installed. DO WORK, SON.

    and for Speedy>>fuk it. let him keep the money even if he demotes from offense, as long as he delivers the same high level of play we all took for granted when he was regularly adding to his legacy of records and stats. imo, that Josh is worth every penny.

  • Cribbs needs to be on the unit he can make the most plays/difference in the game. Wonder what unit he's better on....special teams or receiver? Hmmm. He's a decent receiver but conserving him for special teams would be better. Especially since he has a different injury every other week.

    Well said Sisky, haven't seen you around much!

    well they say the 1st million is the hardest!! 😁

    i lurk when i have spare time. same ol' same ol' eh?

    these flippin' Browns. this organization has gotta be full of sadists.

  • To get back on topic. Cribbs is the best special teams player easily as far as covering punts and kick returns. Secondly, the plays he makes on special teams spark the teams and are what cribbs really loves to do. And he's right his impact on offense has been useless. He was taking up Little's spot and we need a true reciever like him to develop so he was just hindering his progress. Lastly, i believe cribbs truly is sick of losing and knows his work is better put toward special teams because as soon as he began to be used on offense last year his return production has declined dramatically.

  • Why not try cribbs on defense? Safety? Dimeback?

    "We are Americans. We don't quit doing something because it's wrong. We just keep doing the wrong thing till it turns out right." Browns maybe the most American Football team ever.

  • Lmao.....what? Really? He isn't so hot on offense, so....have him learn defense?

    Holy shit that's grand!

  • Gotta justify paying him some how.. When was the last time he returned a kickoff

    Well said why does he have to be on offense. Other than spurts at WildDawg rb he is a horrible wr.
