Fair enough.
Smarts do matter, I agree. And Manziel seems to be sharper, I also agree.
Crap. Who am I going to argue with now?
Maybe I need to unban a few irritants before training camp just for entertaining purposes.
I will list some Barrabbas candidates that we could bring back for another tour of duty and you guys pick the one you want back:

Ya, I don't know if Mike H. is interested in coming back and I don't know if we should open that whole can of worms called Retard again ... although with Brian Hoyer gone, what would he talk about?
Zombo
Argh- none of those arrogant board disruptors need to return.

Did Larry Fine get banned? It has been quiet in the complaint department. I didnt see him on the banned list, maybe he just got a timeout.
He seemed to have a big thing for you, any idea who he is/was?

no, but when somebody copies your 'location' and goes on a rampage of responding to every post you make with a 'suck my nuts' response it kinda leans toward a bad case of internet stalking.
after i ignored him he moved on to other prey.
maybe he got hit by a bus? one can only hope…...

Did you suck his nuts to get rid of him?

Totally agree, h....
Z,
If you need more "discussion" practice before Camp opens, I'll be happy to schedule a scrimmage with you... as I am sure others would as well...

And you would be a worthy opponent. Problem is I Iike you guys, I am looking for someone to take some angst out on. We need some black hats. Where are the Steeler idiots?
Maybe instead of looking at the banned list I should look at the suspended list and see if I can release anyone from "timeout"

Richie. Rich4Eagle is the guy, the black hat.
He was fun to argue with. Well, also, easy to argue with.
And he's a steeler fan. Anybody second the nomination?

I am certainly not under the impression that Rich is banned. I think he just hasn't posted much lately. I also believe Ghoolie's ban has been lifted...no?

Ya they are not banned, just busy ... today was a big day for them, I'm sure they are making plans.

I'd be in favor of bringing back Stockton. Especially since his guy had to enter rehab before finishing a full year as a professional player. If that doesn't entitle you to a healthy serving of crow, then I just don't know what would.

Oh, Ghoolie will be in the dress. That much is certain.

Mike H contributed a lot...at times. He just got into a snit with one of you. I think he wanted to promote his own Bleacher Report stories than anything else.
Gip- there's a difference between serious disagreement- and being a condescending jackass know it all So whoop-ti-shit, you can write for Bleacher Report. When SI or ESPN comes calling- get back to me.
Oh- he got booted off the 'Tard- for the same reason- and then tried to poach posters off of that website to become his groupies on his own vastly superior (to his mind's) website.
I'll have Z kick his smartass off the second he tries logging on. He's on my short- very short list- of top ten jerks I would ban on sight

Maybe he can go to Canada with Michael SAMs. This guy screwed up his mojo when he promised to return to Ohio State after "tattoo gate" and bolted for the supplemental draft. No thanks!

Mike H and Stockton are always fan favorites.
Ya, I don't know if Mike H. is interested in coming back and I don't know if we should open that whole can of worms called Retard again ... although with Brian Hoyer gone, what would he talk about?
Zombo
Stocktons posts would be exactly the same except the word "Hoyer" would be replaced with "McCown".Zombo said:

Probably something like "We know what McCown is, a journeyman backup, but he isn't the future. You have to play manziel to see what you have so you know if you need to draft another QB. By playing McCown you set the organization back for years to come. I'm in Mensa and history will be kind to my posts."

That's not the TE depth chart of a team that is going to emphasize the run.
Fair enough, maybe substitute Dray for Barnidge.
However, I don't necessarily agree with a stable of blocking TE's as an indicator of a run heavy team. It seems the key tenet of Flip's offensive philosophy (and this entire regime) is unpredictability and versatility. Just like on defense, I think we're going to have guys lined up everywhere, trying different things, so that we don't fall into familiar patterns. I think we'll have one, maybe two Y TE's and then 2 or 3 F TE's/ H-backs.
I don't think we'll see a majority of overloaded or heavy sets with two big body TE's trotting out there. I think we'll see a heavy dose of 2 TE sets featuring a blocker and a receiving threat in some fashion.
F - Johnson, Housler and Pryor
Y - Barnidge, Telfer, maybe Dray
Of these guys:
- Pryor's versatility is apparent in that he is a QB convert, he's a large body and he's athletic - so he can be beneficial in goal line situations/ trick plays.
- Housler's versatility is that he's a big body who can be effective at block and release routes and chip blocking out of the backfield (although it's not his strength) and he's athletic enough to be a receiving TE.
- Johnson is a Marcel Reece-type FB/RB/TE. I think he'll be lined up everywhere - in the backfield, on the line, flexed out and pulled in motion.
- Barnidge is slightly more of a receiver and less of a blocker, but is efficient enough at blocking to contribute.
- Dray is more of a blocker and less of a receiver, but is efficient enough at receiving to contribute.
- Telfer is a pure blocker who needs to add some size to be completely effective.
Of these guys, only Pryor isn't going to be used as a blocker in some fashion, but that's because I see him as more of a WR/TE than a TE/FB.
We have 5 solid offensive linemen. We have two TE's who are primarily blockers (Telfer, Johnson) . We have one TE who is about half and half blocker and short yardage receiver (Barnidge) . We have one TE who is more of a receiver than blocker, but can occasionally chip or release (Housler). And we have one TE who is a pure receiver (Pryor).
To me, that seems like we're set up to do anything that we really want.
I'm impressed. Pryor has gone from QB to TE "pure reciever" without playing an NFL down at either position. "Pure reciever" ? We'll see.And we have one TE who is a pure receiver (Pryor)
To me, that seems like we're set up to do anything that we really want.

A short article on Pryor posted today at NFL.com.....a "slash" role......ala Cribbs ala WildDawg...????.....snippets sound like he agrees with me that "if he gets the ball in space, he's going to the house"!!!.....
Training with with Randy Moss(nice) and the enemy...Antonio Brown(blech)......here it is....
After being cut by three teams in a calendar year, Terrelle Pryor realized making an NFL roster would be near impossible if he insisted on working only as a quarterback.
Prior to being swooped up by the Cleveland Browns, Pryor relented and planned to try out as a receiver. The decision sat in stark contrast to his "If I can't play quarterback, I can't play football" comment from a month ago.
Seeing his football future at the edge of the abyss, Pryor told thePittsburgh Tribune-Review last week, he's looking forward to showcasing his ability as a receiver.
"I'm going to give this slash-player deal a chance," Pryor said. "I just want to play football. I'm a playmaker, and I believe if I can touch the ball, I can go to the house, especially if I have space. This should definitely open up some opportunities."
It's interesting to note Pryor's use of "slash-player." It's not clear whether the Browns have discussed a type of role that would utilize him more than just a wideout -- perhaps occasionally putting him under center.
"The thing that helps me is that I played quarterback, and I know what the quarterback wants," Pryor said of playing receiver. "What I've got to work on is the specifics, cutting in and out of the breaks. Athletically, I believe I can do anything on the field. When I get on the field, I may not be the best, but I always feel like I am. I bring that mindset. I work my hardest to be the best I can at that position."
Pryor posted several videos on social media in the past week, including this one showing him running a route. The 26-year-old added he plans on training with Randy Moss and Steelers receiver Antonio Brown to try and pick up the nuances of the position.
Even with the Browns lack of playmaking at the receiver position, Pryor will be in a battle just to make the roster. It's never easy to switch positions at the highest level of competition, regardless of how athletic a player is.
