TRICH traded to colts

    I respect him more than most on here, simply because some of the crazy shit he says is actually true.

    For the record, this season our line ranks as worst in the league in sacks, so It's not hard to imagine that the running game is suffering from them.

    But a great back overcomes those flaws and Richardson didn't.

    Listen I agree that the O line has flat out sucked. I am simply saying that rambling on and on about Richardson being elite is flat nonsense. And you cant blame me for being pissed when Mik jumps on and acts like I am new as a Browns fan simply because I have a low post count. It was totally out of line. I hate the fact we suck again. Shit I was convinced this was the year it all changed. I totally feel the pain but I don't need to deal with board elitism.....its comical

    Wow..

  • Yeah that basically kills Richardson. Its only five out of 267 plays though

  • I know this is an attempt at humor... but seriously, it's way to soon... Fuck it, I'll play along...

    Trent will topple 100 yards. Yes, vs the 49ers.

    He would have had 100 yard games if we weren't resting him for the Colts in the second halves of both games...and on third downs...

    Wow! I kinda figured he will see limited action this week and need a little time to learn the playbook.But then again, after being an older than dirt Browns fan....he gonna hit the headlines with 250...SSDD

    Makes me wonder what McGahee, as a Veteran RB, will do if have anywhere near these types of holes still.

    Also explains (to me at least) why Hardesty always looked better going through the line than T-Rich.

    Bwah ha ha! Really? You really think Richardson will sniff anywhere close to 100 yards? You do know the colts line sucks, right?

  • They plan to use him as much as he can take... something we never managed to do.

  • Weeden is a god damned bum. A big stupid ginger moron. He'll never, ever, ever get it.he doesn't have seven years like Alex Smith to become acceptable. He'll be 36 by then.

  • I guess he might be ok, since he might have a reception or two from a quarterback who can hit a pass once on a while. Rushing yards alone? Nowhere close to 100

  • Lombardi is not our primary drafter... Joe Banner is, along with guys like Ray Farmer, John Sandusky, and Ken Kovash. Also, veteran coaches such as Norv Turner and Ray Horton. Our player personnel department is filled with quality guys, including a mix of "football guys" and "analytics" guys. I would imagine Banner pulled the trigger on this trade b/c he is smart enough to realize TRich is not worth a 1st round pick, and we may have gotten a steal.

    Don't forget, while us fans have to go through this "rebuilding" sh** again and again, this is theses guys' first season. They are trully trying to re-build, and I believe they are trying to do it correctly, and quickly.

    If thats the case then why the fuck is Lomtardi even here in the first place...Banners butt warmer maybe?

  • Under...

    And as a bonus I'll say McGahee will out gain TR Sunday...

    alright in everybody's eyes now TR is/was a bum. i think the guys was class act. no not worth a #3 pick. no not a RB dynamo.

    BUT in his defense, do you think this might be a miscommunication, a RB not getting the play call right?

    i mean zombo could have made a yard in that hole. 😎

  • i mean a guy with a website like this is just off the chains:

    http://www.zombo.com/

  • Miktoxic, why be a fuckin dick? Jackass. Make you feel better keyboard tough guy?

    I agree with you though. How ppl have any fucking faith in Lombardi is amazing, he last QB he took in the draft was Jamarcus Russell. Show me any evidence to suggest they'll pull in top notch talent for this team, please. This FO has a track record of failure, laden with busts. Thinking that we'll capitalize on all these picks is just blind optimism, not reality.

    We need a QB and we woulda been able to get him with our own pick, we weren't winning many games with this Oline. We need guards, a WR, and another CB to replace Owens and Skrine. Until we fix the Oline, it's pointless. Schwartz is statistically the WORST Olineman in the NFL through 2 games, btw. The problems aren't limited to OG.

    No... it was a trap play with Greco pulling right. The hole has to be somewhere to the right. Impossible to miss that call...

    But regardless an NFL RB has to see that hole... no excuses...

    And it was not just this one time. Not that you or anyone read it, but in my week one breakdown I noted that TR missed holes less than a yard from where he ran on a few occasions. I even joked that he wears glasses off the field, so maybe he needs them on the field as well.

    Thanks for talking sense into him... lol.

    To clarify, I actually don't have faith in Lombardi, I have faith in Banner. I think Lombardi is the GM because Banner wanted someone he could control. Lombardi is going to be on a very short leash in the draft. The T. Rich trade isn't about getting the QB, it's about getting as much high-level talent as possible. As you rightly mentioned, the browns have many problems on the offensive side of the ball. It's going to take all those picks and free agency to fill them.

    I saw that. It proves what I've been saying since March of last year...Richardson is an average back in a beast body.

    I'm sure thee were multiple examples of this. But our line is still tied for last in the league as of yesterday (per CBS Sports Radio) and there have also been examples of bad run blocking as well.

    Greco and Lauvao need time together starting and the line needs to jell. OL is a cohesive unit, plug and play replacements rarely get the job done.

  • I can't quite figure this one out. The Browns have a very good defense, but a terrible offense, and yet, they trade away the only player on offense the opposing defense needs to prepare for?? For one pick that could be anywhere in the teens or twenties? Glad the Ravens didn't do that with Jamal Lewis when Kyle Boller was at the helm. At least they remained competitive.

    Banner's ass is squarely on the line with two extremely unpopular decisions- first hiring Lombardi, second trading Richardson. If he's wrong, he'll be out of a job before the snow flies in 2014.

  • Richardson out gains McGahee. McGahee gets hurt. Richardson rushes for 175 and 3 TD's. POG flies to Indy, kills Richardson, kisses Luck and then swallows a knife.
