Cribbs To The Cardinals
-
Man, I'm sorry to see Josh leave. My family lives in AZ so maybe they'll have the chance to appreciate his heart and talents now.
I've named my cat after Cribbs and now I'll have to put him down...
It sucks that now that we're going places the two guys that deserve it most will be gone, Peace out Josh and Phil, God Bless you guys and thanks for the thrills. You guys made watching this bullshit tolerable but now they had better fucking win. This is just like letting Vickers walk. I just don't understand the crazy shit that goes on inside the heads of control freaks.
They just don't know when to sign and when to let them walk. My daughter would be a better GM than Banner and Lombotomy. These guys are a fucking joke.

Here's a good bye that he posted

All I hope is Haden or another young guy embodies what Cribbs did for Cleveland. Cribbs has the potential to statistically be the best returner of all time. He suffered through horrible regimes who rarely used the guy to the best of his abilities. I don't think he ever had the chance to be a great WR or even a solid #2 but he's a great all around football player. We aren't going to run into guys who WANT to be in Cleveland and played a pivotal role to the team's success. I'm surprised he went to Arizona though, that leads me to believe the Browns threw nickels at the guy to come back.

This board makes me feel like the IQ in northeast ohio is extremely low.
Football is a business as it has been for well over 50 years. There is no love or loyalty. Do you think that Jim Brown would have retired if he was able to get even a fraction of what they pay these players today?
The FO was hired to do a job and that job as stated by Banner is to build a winning team.
"Does this make us a better team? If the answer is yes, then we make the move. If the answer is no, we don't."

Cribbs is an Enigma that, while he still retains some value, the current FO didn't feel it weighed towards the positive for them.
Please feel free to go watch your favorite players on other teams, I personally will be watching the Cleveland Browns.

Fukc it. He's gone, move on. Quit crying.

I wonder if he could have been a better safety than the stream of suck that we've had for the last few years beside and before TJ.
Peterson returns kicks in AZ, it's not unprecedented to have a DB doing return work

All the time in Cleveland Cribbs always showed frustration from losing and seemed to come off as a guy that wanted to win above all else.
Makes you wonder how much more money Arizona offered him over New England, how much of a role did more money play in going to a losing team.
Maybe he believes he'll get more of an opportunity on offense in AZ..who knows.
Either way I think it's a disappointing decision by him, he's either a me guy or just a big phoney.
Would of loved to seen him get in where he could fit in with New England and finally win for once.

New england deal = less money but chance at the big one, still cold, moderate amounts of sewage.
Arizona deal= more money zero chance at the big one, hot as fuck , sewage dries in about a half hour.

Four days ago it was reported that Cribbs was joining the Cardinals. He even took the opportunity to post a nice goodbye for all of us. We all wished him well. Well some of us did anyway. So where is the contract? Still no contract. Does anybody else find this extremely odd?

Josh being Josh. Seems more like hes trying to be spiteful before the Cards offered him anything real. Love the player, Love the heart, tired of his out of place comments. Part of being a professional is knowing when to keep your mouth SHUT Josh...
Just sayin...

OK, so, there will be no movement on him for some time it appears. And he isn't coming back, so can we all just move along?
We should be asking something like "should we pick up Ted Ginn" or some other return man...or stick with Benjamin.
And who is going to be the teams torpedo on punt and KO returns without Cribbs there? Is that what Quentin Groves is for?

If by torpedo you mean gunner...then I answer that with "anybody."
Cribbs was a great gunner, but it's not a must-have position. It's a luxury. If you're over 200 lbs and run a sub 4.7, you can be a gunner.
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -
Josh Cribbs' knee scope delaying free-agent deal with Arizona Cardinals, agent says
By Mary Kay Cabot, The Plain Dealer

PHOENIX, Ariz. - Cleveland Browns receiver Josh Cribbs' free-agent signing with the Arizona Cardinals is on hold until he fully recovers from offseason arthroscopic knee surgery, agent JR Rickert told The Plain Dealer today.
Rickert said Cribbs, 29, passed his physical with the Cardinals, but that the club wanted the knee to be fully healed before they actually sign him, a period of about five weeks from now. Cribbs underwent the scope to repair a torn meniscus.
Does he expect the Cardinals to sign Cribbs after the five weeks?
"Yes, I'm assuming that,'' he said.
Rickert added, "I talked to the trainer. He passed the physical. Reports that he failed it are inaccurate.''
Rickert said Cribbs is not talking to other teams at this time, and that a report Monday night that he was deciding among the Cardinals, Giants and 49ers was false.
For now, it's just a matter of him strengthening the knee "and then we'll revisit it,'' Rickert said.

Boy, I disagree with that. And so, apparently does the NFL, as they have set aside a special position in the Pro Bowl for just such a person.
Sure, anyone of such a size can BE a gunner. That doesn't mean they are a good gunner. Certain players in history have been renowned for being a gunner: Bill Bates, Steve Tasker...and Josh Cribbs.
I mean, that is like saying "anyone that is 6'4" 225 pounds with a strong arm can be a good QB". NYET.

Liar, liar pants on fucking fire. They are "waiting for him to recover from surgery before signing him, but he passed his physical" Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit. They are just lucky the HIPPA applies here and no one is allowed to know the actual truth except for what Cribbs and his agent want to tell. And HIPPA doesn't require them to tell the truth...it just allows them to hide the truth.

There's also a longsnapper position in the Pro Bowl. And 10 other positions on kickoff/punt.
When a gunner touches the ball on any play, much less every single offensive one, then your QB/gunner comparison will hold water. Until then, stick to the trivia threads.
