Gordon is out for year. damnit.

[John.R.Brown1968]

It's a sad situation to be honest. In a case like this, not only is he hurting himself, he's fucking his teammates, and a city and a fanbase. You have to be delusional. I'm not shocked, just very disappointed.

Just glad I didn't waste money on a #12 Jersey.

[Hunt Daddy]

Exact word that came to my mind as well. I'm sure Bitonio is a fine player, but that pick didn't make things feel better.

[Bummie]

If we can land Moncrief or better, we should be at least c ok competitive. Im crushed as well. Farmer knowing this news and not going WR leads me to believe theres something else up his sleeve...or he's accepted we will have a team of #2 and #3 quality WRs until the first round next year. Hell, I dont know.

Nope, just looking at realistically. If you think Josh isn't gone, then you're kidding yourself.

i just don't agree. if i'm wrong i'm wrong. We don't know any details yet. but the whiny i'm done stuff is silly.

Panic! Panic! Farmer is, obviously.

Whiney little girls.

Even if Gordon has a reduced suspension, it doesn't matter. He obviously can't be trusted. If not traded (and people aren't gonna give up much for someone with a drug problem... And he has a problem) he's gonna be released. Good ... As .... Gone.

I bet we could trade for Blackmon.

Haha... No worries, man. I'll never be done! I bleed orange.

They could suspend the whole team and build this team from a taxi squad and I'll still support them.

I just don't see where the team can afford to keep him around. I just don't think it's realistic. I pray I'm wrong!

Right there with you. Hopefully this gets sorted out. If not, we still have a lot of pieces.

Lol... nice. If one of the previous regimes were here, maybe.

Maybe we can talk Owens out of retirement. Lol

How can you be any more deflated? You're the most down person on the board. Maybe you need some antidepressants.

[slowburn]

If I remember correctly his first NFL suspension was reduced which leads me to believe it's time to stick a fork in the young bra......he's done.

[Kosar_For_President]

Do we have confirmation? Smoke screen, hoping....

Yes, sir. He's only one card out of the deck. I guess if it was a less impactful player, or one of our plethora of defensive lineman or linebackers it wouldn't bother me.

[USFBrown]

But it does suck losing the best receiver in the league last year.

[Kvoethe]

Wow. What a bunch of whining pussies. Please go root for the 49ers or some shit and take your petty whining someplace else. And leave your man card on the way out. Damn whiny bitches. Your acting like 5 year olds

Go Browns go!!!

[choco]

Why release him? Fantastic idea.....smh.

Problem or not, someone will take a chance on him, and I for one would rather be the team that rehabilitates him rather than watch him get his shit together for someone else.

Otherwise, he pisses hot again and gets the perma ban.

Good news is rosenhaus lost a lot of bargaining chips, so we don't have to pay him ungodly money.

Relax....deep breath. The sun will come up tomorrow.

Can't afford to eat a roster spot, when it could be given to someone who contributes. Not to mention, he would be due for a contract extension in the future. I just don't see it. I'm just trying to look at it realistically. Not trying to be pessimistic etc. Just my opinion on how i see the situation.

[Bob806]

Glass is more than half full- we may be able to have a decent running game, which opens up the passing game.Kyle Shanahan is supposedly a good OC. We'll miss Gordon's speed, but it's not the end of the world.
