  • Shaw never got the real respect he should have got in college and the Browns have to play Johnny. Too much money invested. No bullshit with Shaw. He is just like he was at USC quite and studying the play book . Waiting his turn. He has proved he is quicker and more accurate than Manziel. I know it was a short preview but he is a determined winner and that is what the Browns need. If he is cut I can promise he will be picked right up and it will come back to haunt the Browns. What everybody saw last night well what else can I say.... He's Relentless............

  • McShay's take on Shaw while everyone is on his bandwagon 😁 (I think McShay is an idiot, but his job is to evaluate NFL talent)

    "His arm strength is adequate, not great," McShay wrote. "He's gotten better with his tempo, timing and ball placement on intermediate to longer throws, and as long as he's within 35 yards, he's pretty good. Beyond that is when his accuracy really dips, so that's something he needs to work on with his lower-body mechanics."

    You can't call him an idiot yet because it was one game where he dominated. Wait a couple more preseason games, but man will it be hilarious if he somehow stole the job from both hoyer and manziel

  • Are we serious right now? Connor played the bottom of the roster, got a lot of his stats again prevent D, had a TE catch a hail Mary and had a WR make a fantastic catch on an overthrown ball.

    Yeah, he played well. But come on. Are we really going to look this desperate this quickly?

    Exactly, you can't base it off one game. This is preseason, most years i skipped preseason and always hear about one guy dominating and than getting crushed in the regular season. They'll be plenty of people who didn't watch who are going to hear the same thing this year

  • This QB Bs is really getting boring. Bring on the season and may the best man win games for us.

  • We should just make a side thread for the Scar fans and Aggie fans to argue with each other

    Good idea. I'm tired of the "this college guy is the best ever. He'll dominate in the NFL because I watched all his games. If you don't say he's the best ever you're stupid and cant ever root for him. I love him..."

  • so much for Shaw slipping through to the practice squad... a developmental qb actually showing some potential for a change...

  • So? What now for Shaw? IR, PUP list, something like that. He won't be on the 53 man roster, but perhaps he will still be on the Browns this year. The Browns will want him on the taxi squad, but can they get him there.

    He is the 4th string QB and will continue to be, if he stays. There is no investment in him, so if they lose him they will not see it as a great loss.

    But to lose him, some other team MUST be willing to keep him on their 53 man roster the entire year. If he is claimed off waivers or off the Browns practice squad then he must be kept active essentially.

    This guys future is more like Brian Sipes. A 13th round pick who sat on the taxi squad for two years behind a high draft pick....Phipps. He could have a couple of years to show that perhaps he and not the first round pick will ultimately be the better choice for this team.

  • Good points.....and I doubt that all the GM's around the league fell out of their chairs last night screamiNg "Gotta get SHAW"!!!.....one "preseason" 2 minute drive, against 3rd stringers, during garbage time does not make an NFL quarterback........

    Was laughing while watching that last night, because I KNEW I'd get online today and see a ton of people screaming for Shaw.....

  • Is that the best you can muster Z. That chick doesn't even have a rack to speak of.

    She's pretty and she's a fan of Connor Shaw ... photoshop your own boobs if need be.

  • I understand this was Connors 1st chance, but the so called 1st and 2nd q-b's looked troubled uncomfortable. Shaw on the other hand looked poised and ready to play even with 3rd and 4th team line.

    Shaw can read a defense and shred it up, as he did in his check downs last night. He has great speed, is accurate with the ball and If he's given the chance to play ( which even a blind hog finds pieces of corn coaches ) w/the 1st team O line he'll prove that Johnny College ( not football ) is where he should be, in the stands selling, jersey's, hats and t's.

    Just read the stats from college and compare the 2. It's not rocket science.

  • If anything Shaw's performance show's that Pettine should give him more live reps in the next pre-season game to see if 8-9/123 yds/1 TD was a fluke or something else.

    All of our opinions don't really matter. The question is, what did the coaches see.

  • By the way, I am a little tired of the cueball, bonehead, skinhead look these guys are all sporting. I mean do Brian Hoyer and Connor Shaw really have like no hair to the point that they should shave what little they have left, or are they just trying to be cute.

    I think a QB should be a decent looking guy with hair.

    I mean, these dudes are looking like HowieDawg. OK for the Cock of the Cotswalds, not so much for the Cleveland Browns QBs. 😆

    And while we are at it, bring back the muff!

  • I think y'all will like Shaw. I actually was hoping the Panthers would grab him to groom as Cams backup. Watched quite a few of his games, and while I'm not sure that hell ever be a star, I think he will be an effective QB, and a exceptional 2nd guy.

    As far as JF, I'm praying for y'all that he turns out. I can not stand Steelers fans, I was born in north central WV, so I had to deal with those people growing up. Thank goodness I moved to Charlotte the same year we got our team. We've been through some tough times, but nothing like you have. Hopefully now you have found a QB, as we were blessed to get one.

  • When you have two QBs you really have none. So when you have three you sit and hope the Bills can do something they haven't done since 1985 which is get a #1 pick...
