    I was absolutely right when I said the locker room is compromised.

    Exactly what do you mean by that Walter?

    As in JM v the playbook... a competition he lost. Did his loss not hurt the team?

    I was under the assumption we were seeing what we had in Hoyer and let JFF sit. But you know everything so I'll let you handle it big guy.

    Now who is being disingenuous?

    They have to be, assuming there are still players who are backing hoyer. Is that even possible? The locker room probably sounds a lot like this board.

    Manzier's back. Must've been a rough couple of days.

    Thanks for noticing. It was very rough.

  • The locker room is compromised because the handling of this QB situation.

    I think the defense is pissed off, Gordon is pissed off, the offensive line is pissed off and people are upset at the fact that if someone plays shitty they get benched. Justin Gilbert was benched, Ben Tate was benched, and somehow Brian Hoyer who has been hot dogshit gets to start. I think the locker room has wanted Manziel for sometime and Pettine and a few veterans wanted Hoyer If Brian Hoyer is the starter Sunday, the locker room has lost its trust in the coach. You can't start Hoyer if you expect players to resign in the off-season.

    Can you really see guys wanting to resign here once the losing pattern starts and we have a coach who's this stubborn?

    LOL-we could all use a little levity after yesterday's game.

    I think I have never taken a pro game loss so hard before after watching such a brilliant defensive effort wasted. Does this mean I am becoming a Browns Fan? Inquiring minds want to know.

  • I think he is a decent person, but it's pretty obvious he has been looking over his shoulder for weeks. This guy is the type of race car driver that knows he isn't the fastest, so instead of safely giving way to prevent a massive pile-up and cluster-F of epic proportions, he's attempt to move around to block the guy behind him. That's the way Hoyer wants to win.

    "If 10 guys do their job and one doesn't, it can really affect a play," said Hoyer about the Browns' recent struggles overall.

    Must Hoyer, a free agent after the season, orchestrate an improbable late-season push into the playoffs to keep the Browns' job long term? ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter on Sunday reportedHoyer's days in Cleveland are likely numbered.

    To that question, Hoyer highlighted the irony.

    "It's crazy how fast things changed," Hoyer said. "I feel like four or five weeks ago we're talking about contract talks. Now we're talking about if I'm even going to be staying here."

    Your getting there. Its a slow process. This is a big week. Im excited to see Johnny play. Pettines pressy is in 15 minutes or so. Fingers crossed.

    The guys on that ESPN Cleveland show said they heard a rumor that the Browns might cut Hoyer before the season is over.

    My problem with the handling is this: did they really think Hoyer was the long term solution or were on the fence and needed to see him beat the Colts to seal a deal for the next 2-3 yrs as a QB for the Browns? Again, his play is not surprising. Instead, they've got Manziel on the sidelines who has taken just a handful of snaps in a real game that mattered. If they don't start Johnny for the rest of the season they will still have an unknown quantity waiting on the bench.

  • I honestly think this game is won if they simply replace Hoyer after the INT or at halftime.

    If anyone else on the team played that shitty, they'd be benched.

  • Pettine said he needs to talk with both QBs before announcing a decision.

    It sounds like he is ready to make the switch, and seems genuinely depressed about it. Haha.

    Pettine also said they have a 2 hr rule to show up to the game.

  • Pettine looks a little rough today. Much less forthcoming than usual too. Gotta wait for the announcement(or leak?) later, I guess

  • Sounds like it's Johnny time.

    I'd be less surprised to see pettine out in the cold than johnny.

    If Pettine is out in the cold and Harbaugh is not acquired in a Trade (unlikely), the Browns might as well hire Ghoolie as their Head Coach.

    Who, in their right mind, would want to get mixed up with such a mixed up organization that hires HCs du Jour?

    Time will tell but, arguably, the FO screwed up last year's draft.

    Did the GM screw up the HC hire? Too early to tell, but it is way, way too early to condemn Pettine.

    I've never once called for Pettine's head. I'm just saying based on my gut feelings that jimmy would rather part with him than manziel.

    Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...
