Lost my granny in '98 from that horrible disease. She was 101 years old. Worked a small farm in southern Ohio with my gramps until she was 98. Enough about that. I think Pettin is playing close to the vest. I have a feeling JM is starting Sunday no matter what he or the media have indicated. I'm fine with either one.
GO BROWNS !!!

my dad woke us up from a pass out hs grad party to tell us to go to ogden, indiana to pick up my grandfather who was in jail. not because he did anything wrong, just to keep him safe. we all piled in a van and drove from sandusky there, prob like a 3-4 hour trip if i remember correctly. i went into the police station still half in the bag and asked what had happened. the police had pulled him over in his car cuz he was doing loops around the town center and asked him if he was lost to which he replied "no i'm just going to the fishing hole" which he used to do every saturday in sandusky......where he thought he was. i drove his car with him in it back home. he kept looking out the window and saying "yep, wow we used to reel them in right over there" while going driving down a highway looking at nothing.
2 weeks later he died. what a bitch that was.

So very sad. Granny could talk to you about 1910 in detail like it was yesterday but couldn't tell you what she did five minutes ago.

Ha!....yep.....I think most of us have moved on from using JFF(confusing now).....
I would be amazed if he starts though....dont think Pett would blatantly lie....that would really shake any credibility he had with us and the media....
Plus....more elbow problems.....limited in practice this week....probably could rest that elbow another week or 2.....

UPDATE: Manziel beats Titans- 28-14. McCown gets himself KOed on the first drive of the season. Happy now?
Johnny Boy is most definitely not "my boy". Go back pre draft, look at my posts and see how much I wanted Manziel in a Browns uniform. I'll save you the trouble- it was ZERO. For exactly the reasons you mentioned. I still have my doubts JFF can be a decent quarterback in the NFL, AND I still really don't like him all that much. Even should he win 5 Super Bowls- I will never buy a #2 jersey with his name on it. However- I have even more doubts McCown will be able to win a significant number of games with this roster. Time will tell.
My response was to your brain farted comparison of JM to A. Rogers. God knows anymore whos & who not a flipper on Manziel. Just judge our QB's from what we see on Game day. From what I seen with Josh. Josh deserves a TRUE look at Game Day. Not Settling on a Starter QB, is just poison to this board all year period.

Actually, (I think) that was TCPO saying we don't have Aaron Rodgers starting. That's true. The fact of the matter is the Browns have a 36 year old journeyman quarterback who had a good stretch of 5 games with one team in a 13 year career. So excuse me if my observation is Mike "Turtle Ball" Pettine feels this is the guy who will win him more games playing his preferred ground and pound style of football. If he looked better in preseason, and on his opening drive was enough to convince Pettine and Flip McCown deserves at least another shot as the starter- well, we'll see soon enough if they're making the right call.
Again- if the coaching staff feels Josh will win more games than Johnny RIGHT NOW- I'm fine with that- they had just better be correct in that assumption. The further question is- and the one that concerns me- Is just how much slack they're going to give Josh if he proceeds to prove to the fans, in the famous words of Denny Green- "he is who we thought he was" a career journeyman quarterback who really isn't very good. We've been down this road before with guys like Garcia, Dilfer, and Delhomme- and it hasn't turned out well. I don't have high hopes it's going to be different this time.

i'll take that opening drive vs. the jets (minus the fumble at the goal line) all day long over johnny. and i don't hate johnny. it's just an eye test. mccown on that ONE drive looked like a franchise qb that we haven't had in decades.
are we really questioning the coaching staff and calling for their heads week 3 into their second season?
c'mon man.

You know the drill Mik. The coaching staff won't admit it- but at least from the fan perspective, we have yet another full blown quarterback controversy on our hands. Just sayin' -you know what's going to happen in the media if McCown's first drive against the Jets was a mirage. That's way too small a sample size in my book to definitively say anything. I posted it elsewhere, if you're hanging your hat on that drive- well, I can posit Brandon Weeden miraculously turned into the second coming of John Elway after Romo got hurt. 149 qbr- man, he's the BOMB.

i hear you hoorta. but the same can be said about manziel. looked good vs. the tits. looked like shit vs. the jets. different teams and talent? yes. but i'm not going to hang my hat on that performance either.
way too early in the season to cement anything in as being a finality.

First, on behalf of my Mother that recently passed due to Alzheimer's.... Fuck you.
Watched it eat away at my grandpa (Dad's dad) for almost 6yrs, and can't imagine watching my Mom or Dad.
He isn't worth trying to explain it to T, cause he's too arrogant and self centered to even begin to grasp it, and his glib response proves as much. Hopefully mike h will crawl back into the hole he crawled out of, and that'll make 1 less douchebag on the forum, and lord knows we could stand a little herd thinnin' 'round here.

Yeah... I know...
I've regretted a few posts I've made here, but none more than the one where I said I did not have an issue with Mikey's ban being lifted. I knew he was insecure, but underestimated his immaturity.
Back to football talk, guys...

First, on behalf of my Mother that recently passed due to Alzheimer's.... Fuck you.Second, Mikey, I don't have to pretend anything.I don't have to pretend that Hoyer was the better choice for 2014. That one is in the books. Can you even conceive of the damage JFF would have done to this franchise hand we started him as you wanted to? The damage he might have done to himself?Thankfully JFF checked into rehab and JM emerged. And JM has a better chance at NFL success. I said so from the first look. It was obvious. Is he close to an NFL starter? No, not close, not yet. But he is progressing and someday may justify the undying faith you showed him when you agreed he should return to his backup role this week.And I am the one playing it both ways... lol...Does that clear things up? I hope so, because before I spend any more time on you, junior, you have to show me some of this "trash" I posted.And again, on behalf of my Mother, fuck you...Watching someone you love go the way she did is something I would wish on no person. Not even you... Not even Stockboy... the two most pompous assholes to ever post here.And I will never make senility jokes again. I suggest you do not either... Karma is a bitch.
Not reading all that. You were wrong, like you always are. Hoyer sucks, really bad. Like really, really, really bad
You couldn't even muster a compassionate response about his mother? You may have meant nothing by your comment but most people would have the common decency to say they were sorry.Not reading all that. You were wrong, like you always are. Hoyer sucks, really bad. Like really, really, really bad
