    I know he is back. Has he started practicing

    Yes he's practicing, I suspect some post practice press conferences will be up later today and I'm sure Pettine will get all sorts of Gordon questions.

    Practiced today. Pettine was very low key about him. Said he looked good, but needs some practice, etc etc. Im sure they'll downplay his ability to help us all week, then unleash him Sunday with great big smiles

    He has an interview on Cleveland browns team website, nothing crazy just that he wants to win and he'll do whatever is best for the team even if it's easing into 3rd down plays only (pffft yea right who are these coaches trying to kid, they know Gordon will be starting)

    I wouldn't be surprised if he gets less action than some think. Not that the offense is a well oiled machine right now, but l've been pretty pleased with our wideout play so far, and Gordon just started practicing this month. I would see him being featured in a series or two and then be in on certain packages and situations.

    It's just hard to imagine he doesn't get 80%+ of the snaps given what he's capable of, but I understand why they're downplaying it.

    Our WR group has exceeded expectations, but their biggest issue has been what they're missing, big stretch #1 who can play outside - like Gordon.

    Pretty much all the guys we have are best suited for the slot, with Hawkins and Austin being good on the outside too - obviously not on Gordon's level.

    if he's been doing any type of conditioning while he was suspended then he should come back fine. i heard chris carter say that for a wideout to come back from being out (not from injury) that it's just a matter of getting the timing down. and as an offensive player the defense is reacting to them. all the mental stuff is already there.

    Apparently he is smoking a joint to celebrate having his suspension lifted .....

    Josh Gordon 'very ready,' now Browns need to get him involved

    BEREA, Ohio -- Josh Gordon first wanted to clarify that he’s ready to roll Sunday when the Cleveland Browns play the league’s 32nd-ranked pass defense in Atlanta.

    “Very ready,” Gordon said Wednesday in his first media gaggle since April, well before his 10-game suspension became reality. “I had a long time to get ready for it.”

    Gordon then wanted to clarify he didn’t really tell ex-teammate Nate Burleson’s he would “tear up this league” upon his return.

    “Well we might have a misquote,” Gordon said to laughter. “I told him I definitely wanted to outwork everybody at my position or anybody opposing me. Just to put that effort out there in that leadership role though showing what I can do on the field, in a sense throughout the entire league.

    .

    .

    .

    “Just use me as an asset wherever is the easiest for them to do,” he said.

    Gordon remains one off-field misstep away from a one-year ban (though he's also one clean year from having his slate wiped clean, with the Commissioner's approval). That is his significant challenge, to avoid that step. His other challenge comes on the field, but that’s something he called the easy part.

    .

    .

    .

    Gordon plays a position where he is a standout. He’s been working out at the team’s facility for 10 games. He appears to be in superb shape.

    A variation on a Keyshawn Johnson-popularized phrase seems appropriate about Gordon: He’s back ... just throw him the damn ball.

    Heard Grossi on the Radio saying the only way we may be able to win is by scoring a lot of points . . . ^ could work.

    Word around the league is that other teams are green with envy about JG. He is gonna smoke Atlanta on Sunday, and the browns are poised to weed out the competition and make the playoffs. I'll bet the whole pot on it. Get loud browns fans.

    Offense is going to take off with addition of Gordon and subtraction of Tate. Crowell and West are studs. Gordon and Hawk are going to be sick together. Even with the defense wounded we win big . Great Zomboni spoiler: 43-24 Browns.

    43 is absurd but more possible WITH JG Back. I see a Vikings style game of 2013., Gordon with 9 for 180 and Hoyer with a game winner at the buzzer. Falcons aren't a joke, but play in a weak division. After last game I'm not confident. Defense is still limping as far as front 7 goes

    But the defense should also benefit from this, as Gordon being back=longer drives and more points(hoprfully)

    That's what will be the difference between this year and last. We have other reliable receivers that will take advantage of the attention on Gordon, and with his speed and talent, Gordon will still be able to make plays too. Hoping it works right out of the gate, but I'm guessing there will be some bumps in the road.

    This can be the KEY to us winning games. If we can score early and score a few times, make other teams play from behind meaning they will have to throw more. Take the pressure off our front 7 and we win, bottom line.
