  • Pettine? Maybe, but I still smell Shanahan...

    Old Herm "You-play-to-win-the-game" Edwards actually got one right... as close as I can remember he said, "Worry about establishing one Quarterback before you consider a rotation."

    I am against any special "packages" and what not. Make a decision and stick to it until its obvious that its time for a change. Don't keep dipping your toes in the water.

    Everything would be in better shape right now if #6 was announced as the starter at the beginning of camp, with no competition. If Manziel then blew the doors off of camp then internally you could consider it competition. Now that #6 is named the starter, drop all talks of Manziel playing until you're ready to start him.

    The decisions that have been ultimately made, feel correct, however how things have transpired feels botched.

    I was actually moved to give you a "point"... enjoy...

    Pettine................ let's follow him into the Latrine........................

    I called for the firing of Romeo after the first preseason game. Pettine NEEDS TO GO.

    This guy is a dullard. WHy not just get rid of everyone who isn't an offensive lineman? Seriously, that would make Browns fans happy, and we could laugh our asses off at what shit athletes these blubber asses are.

  • if it's on the table it should be slid off into the trash can.

    lol!

  • They should have several Johnny Scramble packages to get that playmaker on the field for a few snaps a game.

  • I think pettine is a goner, one and done unless he magically gets it by week 8 and starts turning things around..

    Thusfar my early impression of coach pettine is far worse than RAC, Mangini or Shurmur and that is a mouthful..

    The QB derby has to be viewed as a boneheaded decision by most fans regardless of if you are a manzielot or a hoyer homo, by not making an ironclad decision to go with one guy and stick to it rather it be his dynamic but raw rookie or brian hoyer, Pettine has created a mess for himself and everyone else..

    If the trajectory of this coach does not change only a fool would want this guy for a coach for more than a year..

  • Two quarterback package 3 quarterback package no quarterback package who gives a shit? Do any of you people actually take a single word of what any coach tells you in preseason seriously?

    Or the non stop speculation of the 24 7 sports news cycle either for that matter?

    They dont have time to get the first team ready let alone adding johnny packages...

    After the stoolers lay hoyer out for the year compliments of mitchell schwartz we will get to watch an unprepared johnny rook run for his life and trying to avoid the same fate....

  • JFF will start after the bi-week. He will light it up. We will go 12-4. Pettine will be named coach of the year. JFF rookie of the year.

  • Am l the only one who chuckles when l read "Johnny packages?"

    @everlastingxxx said:

    I think its ridiculous to fire a coach after one season.

    Agree... crawl before you walk... walk before you run...

    Pettine's plan is clear... run the ball, play tough D and play a QB that will manage the game.

    @diehardbrownsfan said:

    Gets to start after going "bi" for one week? Does that include pitching and catching?

    Remember the sack by Sam?

  • the objective isn't to manage the game...the objective is to win.....

    i know that doesn't happen often in cleveland, but that's what it's all about.....

    if hoyer plays well, he will stay on the field...if hoyer continues to play like he has thus far, i.e. piss poor, he will be the reason why they may decide to go to a two qb system....it's really all up to hoyer.....

    i think hoyer and the offense will play better against the bears...the pressure is to step it up....and everyone will trying to prove they are up to the task.....

    the real question is what will the offense do against pittsburg......when it matters....

    one problem is the O line...it pretty much sucks much of the time.....

    if cleveland were smart, they have grossman ready to go.....he's got way more experience than hoyer...and he's a better qb than hoyer.....neither manziel or shaw are ready yet.....hoyer isn't the future of cleveland qb's anymore than grossman....unless he completely turns it around (from his shitty performance so far), why play him....he ain't the future....rex might actually wins some games....if hoyer keeps on being the preseason hoyer, there aren't any wins coming.....

    You are putting more stock in three preasason appearances than you are in three NFL starts last year with live bullets ... why?

    You dont get 4 quarters of preseason action in a new system, recovering from knee reconstruction, to work the kinks out any more?

    Rough crowd.

    --We knew Manziel was going to be a rookie, and we knew Hoyer was going to need time to recover and adjust, like any athlete, right?

    Rex has already proven he sucks.....now Hoyer gets his chance to prove the same....
