    We all know he doesn't like Johnny, but today he took it to a new level. He further endangered an obviously injured QB (McCown) by leaving him in rather than putting Johnny in. I don't give a damn WHO he might have put in, but McCown was clearly hurting & should have come out. Pettine's Hatred for Manziel is obvious & totally unprofessional. I have never screamed for a coaches head in mid season but, by God, I'm doing so now. Pettine has no business coaching the Browns & today absolutely proved that. I worked most all my adult life in management & am DISGUSTED by what I observed from an ALLEGED manager today.

      Thank you.

      He put his own ego and the health and safety of another player in front of the team. When asked about it he gave his usually mumble jargon. Josh was never the same after the hit. I'm getting real tired of stubborn head coaches in Cleveland. It's a disturbing trend.

        His starting quarterback wanted to stay in and told him he was good to go. I don't think it's that bad of a thing.

          A guy who was a game time decision who was concussed week 1 who was clobbered all game long and could barely stand up and was constantly grabbing his chest after each play to the point the announcers wouldn't stop talking about it...

          You don't think it was bad? Oh, okay.

            Yeah coach, I'm still breathing (with effort) from those broken ribs, and I know where I am- I'm good to go!!! Sometimes- you have to ignore what a guy is telling you, and use common sense. Does he have to be beat up this bad before you're going to pull him?

            I'm with Canton Mike- Pettine should have at least pulled McCown for that series.

              i was a little perplexed myself how long they left McCown in. I mean fuck we're getting him utterly killed. The offensive line shoudl literally be ashamed of themselves.

                I am a season ticket holder & watched McCown bend over, gripping his shoulder in pain & that SOB didn't pull him.

                That's not a HC, that's a POS!!! I have followed the Browns since the mid '50s & I've never seen a more despicable act by an NFL HC.

                    I have to agree. There is a point when a players health and safety trump winning and we reached that point when McCown was on his knees in pain multiple times. Pettine said he leaves it up to his players to decide and I call that a lack of leadership from the head coach.

                      Idk I didn't pay enough attention to it to see how bad josh was.

                      Josh should probably retire if he wants to live past 50 though.

                              LBC Mike versus Canton Mike. Street fight to determine Pettine's status. Dead man loses.

                                I give McCown credit for being tough- but there's a point where the coach has to tell him- sit down, you're not helping the team.

                                    No, he's right. Pettine laid an egg on that whole second half.

                                    It's one thing to keep him in there, but when he saw the results...

                                    Pettine wouldn't admit he had to make a move. Ya can't win games

                                    being that inflexible and dogmatic.

                                      I just don't see a Pettine issue here. It's not like McCown tried to come out and they forced him to play. There is oweness on the athlete to speak up if he feels like he can't play. The difference between sore and injured aren't always visually obvious from the sideline or the stands.
