Pryor is back Baby!

that's actually a good job out of them. He's still a project and all but it shows they're willing to develop talent.

Yet they cut him earlier and kept Bowe around to do nothing?

Glad they recognized their blunder.. my issues are
1) the poor/delusional inability to recognize talent - someone who still has a job asserted at some point that there was a beast within the dark recesses of Robert Turbin just waiting to be unleashed.
2) Lack of development of the players they do have - outside of Gary Barnidge, name one person who's outperformed. Desir? Back of the DB pack. Solomon? Will be cut. Kruger? Please. Alex Mack? No.
The more labels you have for yourself, the dumber they make you. "When you win, say nothing. When you lose, say less." Paul Brown -
At this point, why not, right? We absolutely NEED red zone targets. Do I think Pryor will come in and light it up? Hell no, I don't think that at all. But can the guy run a fade to the back of the end zone and jump for a ball? I think so. Perhaps he can do a little more.

"outside of Gary Barnidge, name one person who's outperformed" Benjamin, K'Waun Williams, Bitonio, Schwartz, Gipson, Gabriel, should I continue?
-
obviously that question wasn't specific enough -- Who developed during the current season only
Benjamin/Gabriel were the only threats last year and have continued to be.
Bitonio and Schwartz were near-pro-bowl last year. Gipson was pro bowl last year..
Kwaun was the #3 CB last year.

Austin Davis to Terrelle Pryor.
It's like my September wet dream.
The thing is, it's plausible - Davis targeted WR's on 8 of his 10 passes. Each QB seems to have a favorite target, Davis' might be Hartline.

Maybe Meder?
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -
I am all for this move. Give the guy a chance.
And you know what else they should do? Go for 2 every time they score a TD....and have Pryor as the QB on those attempts.
WTF.....why not?
-
It can't hurt anything to bring him in and see what he turns into. If Pryor stinks,the Browns have nothing invested.
-
I refuse to get excited until it's "official" and, for some odd reason, I don't consider Mary Kay's information "official".
I do hope it's correct, but we'll see.

I guess that's the closest thing we have to a confirmation right now?
-
Guessing McC on IR?
DOH!
Or that. TP can be third QB for a few games. He'll probably even get playing time.
Someone has their thinking cap on...
Good emergency option with Thiggy only a call away... (<--- seems like a Pre-season deja vu')

1. You forgot West... and Turbine has 46 yds on 9 carries for the 'Boys. Not beastly yet, but
2. Solomon played like three snaps, so not exactly a valid point.
McCown... Manziel (on-field) have both out-performed. Benji certainly has. In the OL... Schwartz.
On D... K'waun come to mind.
-
Good to see him back. Hopefully Flip can work on him in the games left- just about long enough to make a decision on him for next season.
-
I thought it was a mistake to cut him and keep a non-productive superslow Bowe. Farmer too f'n proud to admit a mistake that ended up costing big $. Those two shots of Bowe unable to get open and then just standing on the sidelines says it all. I could haul a 2 step ladder around out there and get just about as open as he does, at just about the same speed too, turtle X's 2 and snail X's 10.

I have no issue with this signing.....though Im not really excited either.....
My cynicism is taking over I think, cause no matter what happens with Pryor, it leaves me feeling like somethings really wrong....
If he's great(which would be awesome).....then I wonder why the hell we cut him and kept the average to bad guys instead....
And if he sucks....then why did we resign him, when we(and a bunch of other teams) already knew he wasnt good enough????....
So....either way this goes.....it leaves me wondering(extra) about our personnel decisions.....
None the less.....Im curious.....lets have a look.....

You spoke my mind Mud.

Pryor and Bowes stats for the season are not far apart.

Id say that "most" of our truly "proven" good players continued to play their normal solid game......Thomas, Mack, Whitner, Dansby and Traymon Williams all come to mind quickly.....
And, since Pettine has been here, we have found & developed a few.....Meder, Kwaun, Gabe, Hawkins and Barnidge all come to mind quickly....
We have also added a few that look like they've started well and will develop into players....Coons, Duke, Kirksey, Shelton, Bitonio, Erving & Austin all show some promise.....
And at least a few guys who got a LOT better under Pettine.....such as Robertson, Barnidge, Schwartz, Greco & Benji.....even McCown had his best season ever.....
And, then, there are those who we were counting on, but they just never have been good or "regressed" or had worse seasons than they normally do....Kruger, Mingo, Crowell, Bowe and Hartline have all been let downs and not really given us quality since they've been here.......And Haden and Gipson both fell way short of their normal production, though both have dealt with serious injury issues....
So.....I only REALLY count 7 guys on the current roster that I would say "got worse" or did not perform up to realistic expectations.....
And...I count 6 guys who clearly got "better" this year....
And...I count 5 guys who just played like they've always played.....
And...I count 10 guys who are rookies or year 2 players who have performed pretty well and look like they will be keepers.....
And the rest are basically what Id consider average players who played average....not better, not worse, not great, not terrible....
