        LOL good one. He definitely hurt us today. That was a very winnable football game despite the D's lackluster first half performance. I honestly feel encouraged overall by the offense with Campbell. Was it world class? NO but was it decent, hell yes

            I'm 100% on board with that! He is not what he was advertised to be.

              What a piece of shit he is. Fumbling the game tying or game winning possession and dropping how many passes? This cluster fuck needs to be cut. Piece of dead dog shit.

              God hates the Browns. We get so close then the carrot gets pulled from our noses a little further, teasing.

                  he was sure handed but ties for 7th most dropped passes when he plays on the black hole, career-sucking the life out of you Browns. This team will never win shit. Cursed as shit

                    Wow... this has to be the most bipolar forum on the net...

                    I can still remember the accolades Bess drew when we signed him...

                    He was our FA steal...

                    His pass reception rate was the highest in the league...

                    And on...

                    And on...

                    He muffed a friggin' punt... it happens.

                    The punt was short... he sprinted to get to it and got to it.

                    And rather than go down after fielding it he looked up to continue the run back...

                    He tried to make a good play a better play...

                    And it went wrong...

                    He is our sure handed return man.

                    Put in to field all critical punts...

                    Why?

                    Because three games ago (IIRC) Benji muffed one deep in our end of the field...

                    As for his "dropped passes"...

                    Y'all need to go to the tape...

                    Cause the three that immediately spring to mind, including the game ending one, were all terrible throws.

                      He's paid to catch the ball dumb fuck. Every throw is not going to be perfect, that's why he has hands--to reel in the catch.

                        He dropped one early in the game on a deep slant that looked to me like a good pass...hit him in the hands and in stride, could've been a nice gain.

                        The 2nd drop was a really bad pass and was behind him but still could've been caught but not his fault for dropping it.

                        The game ender....tough play...hard to call it a terrible pass when it was remarkably accurate considering the circumstances and a whole lot better than Weeden just tossing the ball out of bounds on a 4th down game ending play. It wasn't an easy catch by any means, but a pro receiver has to catch that pass.

                          Dropped passes are only registered if they hit the receivers hands, which they did.

                          If you're an NFL receiver and you're not 6'5 with 4.4 speed, you better catch everything thrown to you.

                          Inexcusable performance and inexcusable coaching for keeping him on the field after his second dropped pass and muffed punt.

                          Some days you just don't have it, and coaches have to recognize that. Today Bess didn't have it. I hope he feels like garbage all week.

                            Before today's game the browns had 3 receivers in the top 15 for dropped passes.

                              He was our FA steal...

                              His pass reception rate was the highest in the league...

                              And on...

                              And on...

                              He muffed a friggin' punt... it happens.

                              The punt was short... he sprinted to get to it and got to it.

                              And rather than go down after fielding it he looked up to continue the run back...

                              He tried to make a good play a better play...

                              And it went wrong...

                              He is our sure handed return man.

                              Put in to field all critical punts...

                              Why?

                              Because three games ago (IIRC) Benji muffed one deep in our end of the field...

                              As for his "dropped passes"...

                              Y'all need to go to the tape...

                              Cause the three that immediately spring to mind, including the game ending one, were all terrible throws.

                              Yes we were happy when we signed him .... But why is it not OK to say he absolutely sucked today?

                              He did.

                              He knows it.

                              Everybody knows it.

                              But you.

                              Making excuses for a fumbled punt because he was trying to "make a good play a better play"?

                              He fumbled. Not a muff. No one touched him. He fucked up badly. Is what it is.

                              You can't just give the ball away so easily.

                                uh when they replayed his drops for the day only ONE was thrown behind him and he would have made catch of the year to bring that one in. Otherwise all those passes were balls HS receivers routinely net. And the last one? are you seriously suggesting that last throw wasn't right in his fucking lap?

                                    Dropped passes are only registered if they hit the receivers hands, which they did.

                                    If you're an NFL receiver and you're not 6'5 with 4.4 speed, you better catch everything thrown to you.

                                    Inexcusable performance and inexcusable coaching for keeping him on the field after his second dropped pass and muffed punt.

                                    Some days you just don't have it, and coaches have to recognize that. Today Bess didn't have it. I hope he feels like garbage all week.

                                    Agree... but at the rate clowns around here fire players for having a bad game we could not field an 11 on 11 practice...

                                    And we are only halfway through the season.

                                      no he's right, a muffed punt is one that comes off the hands immediately. Bess caught the ball then....I dunno, it just fell out of his hands fuck whatever.

                                        As for his "dropped passes"...

                                        Y'all need to go to the tape...

                                        Cause the three that immediately spring to mind, including the game ending one, were all terrible throws.

                                        Yes we were happy when we signed him .... But why is it not OK to say he absolutely sucked today?

                                        He did.

                                        He knows it.

                                        Everybody knows it.

                                        But you.

                                        Making excuses for a fumbled punt because he was trying to "make a good play a better play"?

                                        He fumbled. Not a muff. No one touched him. He fucked up badly. Is what it is.

                                        You can't just give the ball away so easily.

                                        Z.... I think he was only saying calm the fuck down. He had a bad game, it happens. He is not a piece of shit, he does not need to be cut or even benched
