    Coach Mike Pettine indicated that Manziel probably won't get any first-team reps in Saturday's preseason opener against the Lions, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis:

    Pettine suggested Thursday that the team will probably have Brian Hoyer stick with the starters Saturday, with Manziel on track to work with the Browns' second unit. Beyond that, we expect Manziel to see first-team reps in the team's Aug. 18 exhibition game against the Redskins, with the Browns aiming to make a call on a Week 1 starter in advance of the their third preseason tilt.

  • Isaiah Crowell appears to be the first running back receiving carries in Browns camp following Ben Tate and Terrance West, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Crowell appears to be the first running back receiving carries in Browns camp following Ben Tate and Terrance West, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis:

    Crowell will continue to compete with Edwin Baker, Dion Lewis and Chris Ogbonnaya in camp, but as it currently stands, the undrafted free agent appears to have the slight edge. The report suggests that Crowell seems to be the best runner out of the aforementioned options, but notes that each member of that group has their own particular asset they bring to the reserve mix. Even if Crowell holds off the competition to earn a roster spot, he'll still have a tough time earning regular touches behind Tate and West.

    I guess the next question is whether the first team will play the entire game or will the second team come in lead by Manziel at some point?

    I'd think the latter but we shall see.

  • I want to see coaches who don't have that deer in the headlight expression, and actually act like they know what they're trying to accomplish.

    The WORST coach I've ever seen in my life with exactly what you're talking about what Pat Shurmer. I swear to God that whole clusterfuck regime makes me want to punch a wall. I made it a drinking game every time we'd be killed on the field and Shurmer would have that face like a bully just took his toy.

    Reminds me of this:

    rich kotite.

  • I want to see great line play on both sides of the ball. Get that and the rest becomes easy to create as the season goes on.

    Good one... some animation would be a refreshing change...

    yelling at a player here...

    patting a fanny there...

    Solution: go watch the game at a strip club. Then you get the whole package.

    (Jesus, you are giving me ideas)

  • i want to see the rookies and FAs. see if this defense is going to be as good as i think it will.

  • I also want to see a head coach roaming the Browns sideline that looks like the stereotypical, Hollywood casting in a sports movie, instead of one who looks like they auditioned for the lead in Forrest Gump....................... Oh wait, that's already a 'check'.

  • I think 3 first downs by our first team should be considered a success after hearing mostly negative reports on the offense from camp.

  • I hopping I'm not bitching about the team in the 3rd quarter telling everybody "Theres always next year"

  • when you look up 'bush hog' on bing it spits out images of tractors and attachments...and of course smutty chicks spreading it.

    can i get a whoo eyy?

    "Pig sooie" would probably be more appropriate.

    If Forrest Gump was coaching our team, guaranteed Super Bowl. What did that guy ever fail at?

  • No wasted timeouts due to slow playcalling!!!! 😁
