  • Just don't DIE CODY.... Offensive line ought to be ashamed of themselves for allowing their QB's to take such punishment...

    From What I could see in the first two games, the primary culprit for that was Erving. Now with him out, we shall see.

  • the road to 2-14 starts Sunday, Kessler will lead us to glory ๐Ÿ˜‰

  • If McCown has a "deep sprain" and doesn't need surgery, I think he'll be back sooner than many think. I don't believe it will be in a week or two, but Josh isn't human, and he's TOUGH. If nothing is broken, I'd venture to say that he will be back in a month. Possibly 3 weeks.

    We NEED McCown back. He isn't going to mean the difference between a winning or losing season, but he WILL make the difference between the team being "watchable". LOL. He also throws a killer deep ball, and we have several guys that can get deep VERY well...including Mr. Gordon.

    you are exactly correct...at least i have nfl sunday ticket so if the browns become unwatchable again, i'll find something else.

  • I would just like to see Kessler get the ball out of his hands quickly, limit the turnovers to less than the square root of a cube, and escape the game with no major injuries.

    That would be nice, but that's asking an awful lot of our O-line

    Wow that is a gameshow smile, Bernie.

    He may have a little Bernie-like quality, but he is the same height as another Browns QB.

    Maybe he will be a mixture of the two:

  • I hope Kessler does well, I don't like that he's getting tossed to the wolves in week 3 - but we have no choice.

  • Kessler isn't going to Suck as Bad as We Think

    That statement goes against everything we know about being a 21st century Browns QB.

    I'm just hoping that he now knows where the back of the end zone is.

  • I just don't want him to think he has to do anything radical to win the game... Let the game come to him.. And feed off that...

  • Watched his tape. He is impressive and has a better arm than most people think..

    Accurate too..

    I think he can be effective in the intermediate routes and might even connect on a deep bomb to Coleman/Pryor.

    He will make mistakes, he just needs to limit them and trust his team around him. Crow can get it done on the ground they just need to block and create holes that he can hit! (Giggity)

    A deepish, ball or two, even if of the 50/50 variety that we win, will be important. We simply have to stretch the field, something Kess was unable to do in preseason when he averaged just over 3 YPA. Bad enough on its own, but worse when you note he completed 2 out of 3 throws.

    Then again he wasn't working with our developing 1's in preseason...

    Like I said, expect a deep ball on the first possession, maybe even the first play.

  • Good topic! Patriots don't change anything from Brady to Garapolo to Brissett. They will run more, screens and dump offs to Blount and will probably beat Houston.

    Kessler can do the same. All he needs is confidence. Who wouldn't want Coleman and Pryor to throw deep to?

    Whitehurst is listed number 2 on the depth chart which means Hogan wasn't promoted. I would give the rookies a chance and put Whitehurst on the practice squad. I didn't see Belichek panicking last week. He's as calm as a cucumber playing Brissett.

    Whitehurst is not eligible for the PS.

    No, he is almost ready for his pension.

    By the way, Whitehurst is 34.....so he has lived a year longer than the real Jesus...supposedly.

    Is it just me or does he look like a young Bernie Kosar in this video.. Hmmmm... Maybe we are on to something.

    Put a half empty bottle of Dewers in his hand and the resemblance would be uncanny...

    But, at this point, we should see what we have with Cody Kessler. This season is fucked beyond belief anyway, so what do we have to lose by playing him?

    But but but... Bill can't win without Brady... ๐Ÿ˜‰

  • I haven't heard anybody, our own radio guys included, that have ANYTHING nice to say about Kessler's chances this weekend. Perhaps they are all wrong, but by all accounts I've read/heard, Cody is going to have his ass handed to him, and it WILL be ugly.

    We won't be able to run the ball without setting it up with the pass, and that's scary. The Fins might have 19 defenders in the box.
