  • If Hoyer keeps playing like he is, Johnny will be somewhere else anyway.

  • FUCK THAT GROVELING C U NEXT TUESDAY.

    We just can't celebrate our win over Pittsburgh without this dolt MKC ruining everything again?

    God she's a fucking bag of burden

  • She's not even reporting it...she's just repeating what she heard from Bleacher Report...sheesh.....Grossi seemed certain Hoyer wasn't being difficult....he;s just deflecting because it's FOOTBALL time....not Johnny Contract talking time....he's a pro.....no worries.

    All the idiot reporterS(LIKE MCK) will pick it up from the AP reports and it still will get lots of air play....cause no one checks facts anymore, they just repeat, report and then react....

    Johnny can sit till his contracts up.

    Didn't he hold out? If so good for him, hopefully it was worth it.

    No, he did not.

    Wasn't that a former Cav's coaches quote? Former.

    Hoyer is betting on himself, and has been even before the season started when he had all the negative tags. Career backup. Coming off major injury. I gotta admit l admire that.

    I don't know about this report though. I think Hoyer's a self starter, but l still think drafting Manziel turned that burner up to 11 under his ass, and so far l'm digging the results.

    Franchise Brian? No... Don't see top 5 bucks in his future.

    I've said before a good, three-ish year deal with a mutual option year, and a base salary in the top half of starters plus incentives should do the trick. At least I believe this will do it now... but the longer we wait...

    And Johnny's no issue if Brian goes into camps as THE announced starter for as long as he is on this roll. No telling how long that will be...

    Will Hoyer give the Browns a hometown discount? He might. $20 million guaranteed (at least) will set him up for life. The franchise tag for a qb is $16 million- I don't see Hoyer as being the greedy type to extract the last dime out of the Browns. You saw it already- as long as he's winning, he owns the town- stuff hanging over the walls- Hoyer the Destroyer & This is Hoyer Country. BTW, should Brian take the Browns to the playoffs (maybe a little early to start thinking along those lines) , he's untradeable- the fans would riot.

    Trade Manziel? Way dumb, it's not happening- he's on a cheap rookie contract, and this is an ideal situation. Sit and learn. Short of an injury, JF isn't seeing the field this year. It might get more difficult a few years down the road, if Hoyer continues showing he's the first competent qb the Browns have had since Bernie Kosar.

    I didn't even think about guaranteed money... $20M as part of essentially a 4-year deal seems about right.

    Keep both. Dumb to even consider trading one of only 2 QBs on our current 53-man roster. Manziel is 1 play away from being our starting QB. The longer he is on the bench, the better it will be for him. Hoyer gets an extension at the end of the season, and Manziel remains backup until needed. After his rookie deal, he can either walk, we can trade him, or maybe he becomes our starter... too early to make a move here...

    Well, first there's Shaw sitting as well. But let's go hypothetical...

    There's a QB in Dallas that is at least as close to a hit away from season's end as Hoyer...

    Say the Big D QB gets hit first...

    A certain GM/ owner sees his dream season evaporating in the hands of a certain backup QB...

    We shall call this QB, "Wheezy"...

    And Farmer's phone rings...

  • I don't care if MKC is just reporting shit from another site, she's the beat reporter for the main Cleveland newspaper. She has to know this story is like dropping tacks in the locker room. The fuck is wrong with her or any other dumbass Cleveland reporter willing to repeat this tripe. Deal with this after the fucking season not now FFS. Previous poster was right, it hasn't even been a day and a half since our biggest win since 99...let us go till mid week before you chop that high off at the knees

    Dunno, Ibb...

    I think if JM had knuckled down and learned the playbook things might be a whole lot different around Brown Town.

    BH really did not come on until he was given the 3rd Preseason Start and effectively the job. Until then the "competition" seemed to be getting to him. I seem to recall Pettine saying as much a little later on.

    Anywho... water under the dam now... 😉

  • Didn't you all see the Jason Cole video? In his opinion, Hoyer would not accept a contract with Manziel in Cleveland. So he thinks keeping both won't be an option if we want Hoyer long term. He also said that with every win, Hoyer gets more expensive so the sooner the Browns sign him, the better. By his theory, we could keep Hoyer one more year with a a Franchise Tag. But if we want to save money, the better idea might be to sign Hoyer and trade Manziel.

    Sorry, I assumed everyone knew what I was talking about.

  • Direct link to the Cole "interview" in Bleacher...

    http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2229283-buzz-brian-hoyer-wont-agree-to-long-term-deal-with-johnny-manziel-on-roster

    Cole drops his little bomb near the end...

    "...but if Manziel is still there I don't think Hoyer is going to take a long-term deal with the presence of Manziel. I don't think it's going to play out that way according to all the people I've talked to who are involved in this."

    If people in the know are telling him this is Hoyer's condition for a deal, then Cole would not have to "think"... he'd know...

    Seems like much ado about nothing from an insider wannabe...

    For sure Tour- some guys here are already going off on a regurgitation of unsubstantiated garbage by MKC off a freaking Bleacher Report interview? Like what are this guys sources anyway? Voices in your head, like Mike H? Remember Mike H was so damn sure Manziel was easily going to beat out Hoyer for the starting job. Do you guys realize almost any hack with a computer can sign up to post articles on Bleacher report? You can start 1\2 believing this crap if guys like Mort & Schefter start saying it on BSPN.

    Same BR goober who was laughing at me suggesting- just maybe, possibly- this could be another Kurt Warner situation back in April.

    For those old enough to remember Cheech & Chong's Sister Mary Elephant- CLASS!!!! CHILL OUT!!!!!
