TRICH traded to colts

  • what a bunch of dopes browns fans have become, let alone the faggots that still brng up uni change.

    i don't care if everyone and their mother is running the read option or spread your mother's legs offense. this is still the AFCN. you nee to be able to run the ball when the winds off lake erie are whipping around 30 mph and the sleet is coming in horizontally.

    what a bunch of pussies. we should be punching people in their chin yet everyone wants to dance the tango. sure you need a strong armed QB who isn't dumb and doesn't stare down his receivers and can take a hit and can read defenses (that's why this trade will be a bust cuz there is no QB out there right now like that).

    OL!OL!RB!OL!CB!CB!S!S!WR!WR! get those players and shep (in pink tights) could play QB in this league.

    Everyone is so quick to glorify the hard-nosed, tough AFC North teams.

    "This is the AFC North, brother. Where men are men and eat steel sandwiches and shit brick buildings. We play in 70 MPH swirling winds off Lake Erie and battle through 10 ft. Deep snow storms. Passing the ball is for pussies and we'll show the league with our hard nosed, run between the tackles team and bruising RB's."

    The 12 postseason QB's of 2012 ranked the following in QB rating during the regular season: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 10th,13th, 14th,22nd and 26th.

    The first 4 QBs out were the ones ranked 26th, 22nd, 14th, and 3rd. And the 3rd ranked QB (Rg3) was eliminated by the 4th ranked QB (Wilson).

    8 of the top 10 QB's made the postseason.

    3 of the top 15 QBs are AFC North QB's. The other AFC North QB...29th.

    I have about 15 counter points to your stupid argument and I'm drunk and operating on 1 hour of sleep on 72 hours of work.

    I know you wish that this was the AFC North of old, where guys could leave their blue collar jobs and walk to the stadium with their lunch pails and watch a tough nosed RB grind out 100 hard fought yards and beat the opposing team 14-7. But it's not. Nowadays, if you score 14 points in the NFL...you more than likely are going to lose by 10.

    Trent Richardson led us to 5 wins. That's it. Those are the facts. Blame OL all you want but we have two first rounders, a second rounder and a third rounder on our line...which is a lot more invested that other teams are.

    We have a lot of holes, but until we get a franchise QB we will never win. Those are the facts. You can either choose to be an adult and accept it or bitch about trivial matters and think you're right when you're not.

    The right QB changes everything.

    I know you're going to say, but we've had 17 QBs and no one did anything...so it must be something else.

    Look at the QB's we've had. Which one has gone on to have a career anywhere else? Outside of Tim Couch, when was the last time we even attempted to draft a franchise QB? Weeden? He was a late 1st round flyer who would have slipped to the second (or third). McCoy? He was a mid round project QB. Quinn? He was projected a top 10 pick and fell to 22 after concerns about a lack of an NFL caliber arm and unprofessional attitude.

    We just kind of take a questionable pick and then go "Well, we'll take whatever QB is on the board with our next pick."

    Couch was the only time in recent history we've taken a franchise QB and he was fucked from jump street.

    EDIT: and we're getting new uni's next year

  • wow, you talk a lot when you're drunk.

    what did i say in my post that you totally disagree with?

    uh, yes it's cold snowy and windy in the winter months in cleveland correct? how do QBs usually stack up under those conditions?

    that's all. sure if weeden were smart enough he might do it. josh freeman is big and strong enough to do it.

    RG3, i think not.

    listen dude i don't even know what this thread is about anymore.

    but i agree whole-heartedly about couch. the minute i saw him in the hall of fame game throw the over the shoulder 30 yarder to KJ i thought we were back for real and in good condition. too bad butch loaded up on defensive busts instead of OLinemen.

    Erie Dawg is an ignorant fool and I'm not sure what you are. Sometimes you're alright but usually you sound a bit like you're on a three day meth bender. Whether you Like it or not dancin' Trent is a colt now. Sack up and realize it. The only way out is through.

    By the way you're all crying because an exceedingly average football player got traded! Is this really how empty your life is?

    Cysko your a bitch, period.

    All your doing is going to every t-rich thread G responded too and kicking his fire. Your trolling for an argument that's it.

    I gave him a shot when it happened and dropped it.

    BTW no tears from me. The trade could work, I just don't think the timing was right for this years draft. But this whole thing was set in motion last year during the draft when we started trading-(swapping) picks.

  • 27 pages later ... We dropped Trent for a first round pick and picked up McGahee.

    I'm really not sure it will effect our 2013 season that much.

    These guys are going to draft their guys next year. That'sall. The end.

    My point is that were a QB away from competing. Not a CB away. Not a OL away.

    Yes, we do need a #2 corner. Yes we probably need at least one guard. Yes we need a #2 WR. But first and foremost we need a QB.

    A good QB and we win 8 games.

    We haven't had the nutsack to go out and get a good one in 10 years. We keep settling for mediocre ones and that's proven to be completely ineffective.

  • Its really hard to say. We don't know where the Colts draft pick will be, for all we know it could be top 10. Especially if Luck goes down due to his lousy line. Or they could be in the superbowl. The quality of the player we can get right now for that pick is really variable.

    I'm of the thought that running backs are a dime a dozen. So the browns are ahead by default...though sort of down since they drafted t rich in the first place. Give me a cheap 5th round scat back like Dion Lewis and I'm perfectly content.

    I think the move helped ensure we will be able to snag a 1st round QB with our pick and then a WR or CB with that colts pick. Or package them up if its at all possible, to snag the top QB.

  • This is the worst sports travesty since Lebron James went to south beach.

    We had a franchise runningback that was the new face of the franchise.

    He brought in a new generation of fans. All of Ohio is down in the dumps right now. Lombardi has to be in hiding, there must be a price on his head by now.

    you don't think the jury is still out on weeden? i mean we did use a number one pick for him. he looked really good in some of the preseason games and had moments in the first 2 where people actually thought that hey he's starting to get it.

    OR

    do we trade him away too?

    just asking.

  • I consider the trade to be a positive for the Browns....just wish the timing was better. However, you have to make the deal when the opportunity presents itself. The only reral problem I see is, while the first round pick is more value than Richardson, to most NFL teams, is it really that valuable to us?.....given our history of drafting?

  • We could have gotten:

    2014

    First Round Pick

    Second Round Pick

    Fourth Round Pick

    2015

    Second Round Pick

    This is the Price to receive a franchise runningback.

  • dude WE are not crying. get it?

    you just keep stickin the knife in PoG's side.

    we all know the guy is gone but can you let the dude have his 'mourning period' for christs' sake.

    you sound like a bully on the playground. nah nah nahnah nah.

    Ha! Theres 27 pages of this whiny end of the world crap. Pog is NOT the only one butthurt enough to threaten to boycott the browns over it. He's simply the loudest mouth on the subject.

    You're out of your goddamn mind. Severely SEVERELY overestimating the worth of Trent Richardson

    Fucked

    Browns get ripped off. Because......don't we always?

  • I have calmed down some since Wednesday (I wanted to burn my season tickets when I first heard about it). This is an unusual trade by NFL standards, as for the most part, trades aren't very common, especially once the season starts. This is a big time PR disaster IMHO, as there must have been 20,000 T Rich shirts/jerseys at the opener...I haven't seen a player so popular since Kosar.

    Short term- Colts should be the big winners. It will be interesting to see T Rich on astroturf the rest of the year. I see the Colts game is on TV in our area Sunday, but I don't know how he'll do vs. the 49ers- I doubt he makes a big impact this week. The Colts now have 2 of the top 3 picks from 2012, so I'd expect them to at least win the AFC South.

    Long term- all speculation of course, but the Browns can't blow this pick. I hope they don't trade picks either, I want players (who contribute). If Banner is the genius he thinks he is, we'll be ok.

    Always a fan, but I'm just as sick about the constant rebuilding as anybody. Somehow, someway, beat the Ratbirds, Cincy, & Squealers this season and I can calm down even more.
