  • Nope....the real issue is that Johnny overslept and missed his weight training this morning....day after his Birthday....

    Prolly out all night partying......

    Anyhoo....the good news is that Pettine actually seems to have his back....or at least isnt coming out bitching about it....just said he could make it up later....

    None the less.....seems like they name him starter and he does something stupid or irresponsible....every time....

    He'll still probably start...but seriously, the kid is a train wreck....

  • Mud-if true then leave him on the bench. He obviously does not want to play for the Browns (or anyone else if this continues). Pettine would be justified in leaving him where he is.

    No....I never make this stuff up....

    Grossi is reporting it as info he got from an unnamed source....and did ask Pettine about it point blank at todays pressy...

    Pettine looked surprised.....didnt deny it....then said its not a big deal, he can make it up later, as long as he gets his lifts in by weeks end its cool....etc....

    But I sensed he didnt like the question....and at this messy point of the year, he maybe is too tired to keep fighting it......I expect Johnny to start and the team to look the other way...cause, no matter what they do, it'll be wrong.....

  • I feel horrible for Pettine. Never even had a chance. And him and Shanahan had a good game plan. Could actually run the ball with garbage talent too.

    "We are Americans. We don't quit doing something because it's wrong. We just keep doing the wrong thing till it turns out right." Browns maybe the most American Football team ever.

  • I listened to it and he made it clear that they have flexible lift times as long as they all get it in during the week. He made it clear that was all players, not just QB's. Go to 12:20 mark

    Point is Ag, given the circumstances... but the dog vid was funny.

    I'd be annoyed as well...

    A fucking mouse can't fart in Berea HQ without it being on twitter before the stink clears.

    Best decision but 2 weeks too late. At least I'll have a reason to watch the remaining games, yesterday's was painful to watch.

    You mean the 30whatever to 10 performance on Thursday night football with JM starting wasn't painful because your boyfriend was at QB?

    What do you think immature brat + substance abuser + birthday usually equals? Hell I'm surprised he found the stadium.

  • He said he was late.

    Unless of course he's changed his story since I heard it told on the air.

    I'm starting to believe that this kid could fuck up a wet dream....

  • Seeing reports on PFT that pettine hasn't named a starter.

    That should be great for 1st team reps.

  • Maybe he meant that his girlfriend is late...

    Did anyone catch DAB's comment after his post? Not sure l understand but l'm glad it's there.

  • Well folks I guess it depends on whether the rumors are true or not. Heard multiple sources say that the coach is being forced by the front office to start Johnny.

    If so:

    I can understand the coaches vindictive attitude and I understand his need for some sort of punishment. I also understand what's good or not so good for the franchise. At this point a four-game audition won't really tell us much.

    Whoever the quarterback is will be playing with a depleted team held together by spackling compound and bondo.

    So far three of the four opponents are fighting for a playoff spot.

    You have to wonder about the attitude of Mike or Johnny because both have to realize the more than likely only one of them will be back next year. And they probably hate each other.

    I wonder if Mike Pettine, believing he is about to be fired, would sabotage the next four outings?

    (I thought the rest of the team might rally around him for the Cincinnati game and give the Bengals a run for their money but...)

    If he wants to stay in the league.......he won't sabotage anything. He will just try harder

  • Pettine will go be a competent DC somewhere again. O'Neil will be a position coach again. They'll get another shot in a couple of years after building a solid defence.
