    Gee, too bad you don't have a hot line to Pettine and Farmer -

    after all, you don't know, and want to..

    gee freakin whiz. That's sad.

    Stop complaining - I believe they know what they are doing, it isn't a perfect science,

    and...

    Manziel cannot be helped. He is another Ryan Leaf and needs to be traded asap!

    We need a real QB. We've had numerous chances to draft our franchise QB since we came back and we have flopped on all of them. The lone bright spot being Derek Anderson in 2007.

  • so derek anderson is a 'franchise' QB?

    hell dilfer is a superbowl winner but no way i'd classify him as being a 'franchise' QB.

    Never said he was.

    Just said he was really the lone brightspot at QB the past 15 years.

    What constitutes "a lot better"? If you think they'll win more than 6 games I'll take your offer.

    I really don't get this move at all.

    For as much as Hoyer was inconsistent this past year, and for as much as I wanted him out after a certain point of inept performances, he is a MUCH more viable option at QB than this loser we just signed...

    I mean what are they thinking?! This organization proves to us each year that the only consistency they have is inconsistency and bad decisions..

    This move clearly tells us that Cleveland will be taking yet another QB in the first round of the 2016 draft after they go 4-12 and fail miserably.. Then this poor soul will be succumbed to the never-ending saga of failure and inconsistency that is the Browns..

    two winning seasons since we came back in '99. TWO!

    When is this bullshit going to stop? When is the "building for the future" phase ever gonna stop? When are we ever going to see the playoffs? When will we stop picking QBs at #22 that flop?

    I really hope this regime gets it right. i really really do. But so far, they have proved to us, that they are the same ol' Browns...

    Rant over.

    Going from 4-12 to 7-9 in year one... Sure, it's not a huge improvement but it is something...

    But the shit that has happened this past offseason is going to spill into next year.

  • what shit? gordon and manziel? the signing of mccown?

    as someone else pointed out earlier up until that signing we had no starting QB. now we do.

    people have to give stuff a chance before calling it a fail.

    McCown is not a starting QB! He is a mediocre inconsistent backup who had a fluke season in Chicago because he had Alshon Jeffery and Brandon Marshall. And he is also 35 years old! This is a terrible signing and it basically says that we want to tank for 2016

  • So let's try this: Hoyer was done soon as Farmer hit send on the text to Shanny. Manziel was brought here to be our starter from Draft Day Rnd 1 Pick 22. Hoyer is not going to Mentor any QB when Hoyer wants to be your Starter (I Don't Blame Him). We sign Josh who has been like a Hoyer sitting behind Brady for years for a lot less money than Hoyer. Now You hope the plan is to Draft Hundley Or Petty in 1st Round or you wait to 3rd or 4th and get Mannion or Greyson. Josh is a under center QB, makes no sense to Manziel he's never under center. You give me Petty or Mannion who play under center along with Connor Shaw, we will find a starter and his name is not Manziel and for now like pet says you move on like he's not going to be there...

    Sure. 6 games is a push. Anything under and I will change my avatar to a handsome Richard Simmons shot for at least a month. Same goes for you. Deal?

    Over react much?......FA hasnt even started......the draft hasnt happened yet...

    If this was a chess match, then Farmer just moved his first pawn....calm the heck down and have a drink or something.....

    Fail? you posted that list of UFA qbs Mik- know who has a better career qbr than "The Clown"? That would be the Clausen Pickle. Kyle Orton is worlds better at the same price.

    there ARE some names on that list that i would have looked at BUT for some reason they wanted mccown and they wanted it done fast. i don't think they wanted to get in some bidding war with another team but that's just a guess. i feel the same way about clausen as you do about mccown.

    and didn't orton retire?

  • Looks like they're going defense and O-line. I will settle for a kick-ass defense and a strong running game for 2015. Then it's Cardale Jones or bust.

    DAMN THE TORPEDOES! FULL SPEED AHEAD!
