Bowe and West on offense says a lot of the impressions they've made so far. Getting interesting.

[Clevfan4life]

Please find a spot on this team for Josh Lenz. Holy fuck I think you could fire the ball out of a battleship cannon and that fucker would catch it. Anyone else see a budding slot receiver star in him?

[beare]

wow thad lewis is horribleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[jcam222]

Lenz is awesome. Thaddeus sucks balls

[Tour2ma]

I don't see Erving's name on either list. Thought he'd get a little work at LT early...

God I hope they don't have to keep him and take up the roster spot

[burtond16vtec]

Lewis really looked like he didn't want to throw to Pryor or throw a block for him either, I think he's worried about being expendable if they keep him.

[TheOllieC]

I was looking forward to seeing what Bowe and Pryor could do but holy hell this is some awful QB play.

Pryor's versatility is still great and he's simply too good of an athlete to not be useful in some way shape or form if he commits to WR. Blocking looked fine and he can play ST.

I just really don't want to have to watch Thad ever again.

[jcam222]

Thad's terrible. If he starts a regular season game and the temps below 70 my kids will be using my tix lol

[burtond16vtec]

He's played against Pittsburgh's real defense and looked way better that's why I feel like he's forcing stuff elsewhere when it seems like Pryor would have a better shot.

[miktoxic]

who doesn't know that thad lewis sucks balls? he was never even close to being on any list i've EVER had for a brown roster.

just another robot dummy arm for camp and preseason.

[calfoxwc]

Well, I thought I underestimated Lewis, til this qb fiasco.

And his cowardly refusal to even try to block for Pryor...

inexcusable. He shouldn't be on the roster tomorrow morning.

That, and he's so slow to see the field, really pitiful anticipation,

and how stupid to see a big blitz coming, and still go back like

the defense isn't after him?

Really dense. Lenz is on the active roster. Maybe Jennings, but

I wonder if Mayle goes to the practice squad now.

[miktoxic]

won't be able to see the game til tomorrow at 1 in the pm. the same friend who fucked up printing the BB shirts will be over then and we'll both get a laugh cuz it was jets and giants preview here last night....

jets aren't gonna be the walk over like i thought they would be for the browns week 1. just crossing fingers and cussing neighbors.

[tiamat63]

The second team oline in run blocking is a nightmare.

[OldBrownsFan]

As ESPN.com’s Pat McManamon tweeted during the first half: "The guys the Bears are going to cut appear to be better than the guys the Browns are going to cut." This phrase perfectly sums up the game.

Same old story unfortunately.

[jrb12711]

Can I just also state how bad Thad Lewis is? I get he was playing with guys who will likely never see an NFL roster, but holy crap. He'd have a clean pocket, clean pocket and take a sack. I'd much rather have a sore elbow Manziel over that dude.

Good thing our cuts don't play when the regular season starts.
