  • Yeah, I was just going to post that, Tour. Saw it on the news last night.

    Bitching about that was ignorant.

    The negativity about Browns stuff, to the point of making crap up,

    is just ...stupid crap.

  • I mean the belt thing is kind of a good idea, you gotta hand it out win or lose unless the whole team played so shiite that no one deserves it. Shelton had a few beast plays against Seattle, so i'm ok with it. They're tryign to start some traditions, which is good....just right now it looks odd cause we're losing.

    As for the firesale comment i've been saying for months now that we need to retain only a handful of players, Shelton being one of them....and the rest we need to see what, if anything, we can get for them now. Sucks to say but i'd trade JT in a heartbeat to a contending team for some more immediate needs....IF the price was right. I'm not "firesaling" joe thomas..no fucking way. Somebody parts with a 1st round pick for him. 2nd round only if other playes are included.

    My biggest concern about trading JT would be who will take over his spot?

    If we put Erving over there, the Browns will need a dozen QB's on the roster because they will get killed.

  • Hold on here a second, we give up 423 yards, 9 of 12 3rd down conversions and Seattle scores on 6 of their 7 possessions and the Browns give out a defensive player of the game award?

    Pretty soon we might as well just give everyone "The Participation" trophy!!!

  • Next Zak Jackson will be reporting he found Pet's Doghouse Board for Bowe, JM, Gordon & Gilbert. Maybe I missed a story, but before the trade dead line Day Thomas told media & FO he wanted to "stay a Brown & finish unfinished business". No wonder Farmer showed up at the presser wanting water & sweat towels 😉 JT going nowhere imo & has earned that right in a orange helmet.

  • @stinkhole said:

    People getting desperate is irrelevant, but if the browns aren't desperate after yet another year of sucking then good luck.

    Btw, JT was put up on the trading block with I believe Denver, but it fell through.

    Just goes to show you how really inept Farmer is......that is all I take from that episode.

    Why don't you trade BR, or Antonio Brown if you are in such favor of trading your best players.

    Um...because they are winning?

    The Steelers most likely not a 9-5 team without their best players...the browns are a 3-11 team with or without Thomas.

    Trade his ass while he's an all pro and still in his prime.

    And replace him with who?

    Look at the big picture, you trade away a key position player and create a hole that you will have to address come draft time.

    Makes no sense.

    I'll help you out with this one.

    It's called PROFESSIONAL football, and they are ALL here for the $$$.

    Carry on.

    You've obviously missed the point so I'll help you out. Great players hate losing. Joe Thomas doesn't hate losing. He is indifferent and never gets angry when the browns lose.

    He continues to play at a high level, and when the browns lose it's no biggie because he still gets paid.

    Any competitive player, regardless of skill level hates losing.

    @stinkhole said:

    Where did you hear that? I've heard JT say "losing stinks" several times over the years.

    @stinkhole said:

    Did you ever consider that the guy is even tempered? I don't recall Anthony Munoz throwing a hissy fit when he played either.

    Clearly you're fucking Retarded - please go back and check out JT responded to our young lineman when we had multiple FG's blocked.

    By the way, were you that desperate to troll you've had this alternate account ?

    didn't we do a pretty good job in rush D though? Against the best rushing team in the NFL weren't they? Or at least in top 3?

    He has no trade value now. We're stuck with him. BUT............... if he breaks his leg, you will get to see that it makes no difference to the performance of the team.

    A walk on could do his job.

    Yeah Tom- that's why you're smarter than every GM in the NFL- those guys draft left tackles in the first round every damn year.

    Denver did offer their 1st and 2nd round picks though.

    http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2015/11/3/9660070/joe-thomas-browns-broncos-nfl-trade-deadline-2015

    At one point on Tuesday, the Browns were seeking two first-round picks in order to part with their All-Pro blindside protector. However, according to ESPN's Dianna Marie Russini, the potential deal would have sent Thomas and a fourth-round pick to Denver for the Broncos' first- and second-round picks in the 2016 NFL Draft.

    Then there was this story of which I wasn't aware...

    http://www.rantsports.com/nfl/2015/11/02/seattle-seahawks-rumors-joe-thomas-trade-makes-too-much-sense/

  • I know it's convenient and sassy to say the Browns offered up Joe Thomas, but no, they

    did not, that would send them backwards on the field, and even more backward

    in the lockerroom.

    Seriously, ya need to watch the Joe Thomas interviews with his teammates, he's really

    respected by them, bigtime. Sure, Denver probably inquired, all sorts of inquiries

    happen...

    but not even Farmer is dumb enough to try to initiate it.

    A belt that says "this guy competed his ass off" is a far cry from a participation trophy.

  • I guess I'm old school but if you need a belt as a reward to do your job there's the fucking door. I want players who sole purpose is to be awesome fucking football players, dominate their opponent, win games, go to the playoffs and compete for championships. The NFL isn't measured in belts and necklaces, it's measured in wins and losses, fucking Browns. I wonder how many times John Randle wore the player of the week belt. Hey Danny heres a novel fucking idea, show up more than once every 4 weeks.
