    Your right, seems like he would be a way better choice...

    Maybe too expensive, no desire to kick for the Browns, waiting for a better fit? I just don't know.

    If he would have come to the Browns, he would be the town hero right now

    Signing a kicker off the street. Instead of Gould cost the Browns a win

    Gould would have been "off the street" too.

  • Ha ha ha that's true! The Browns should give every "off the street" kicker a tryout! Cody Parkey sucked in Philly that's why they got rid of him. The Browns had a chance to get Connor Barth before Chicago signed him. It will be interesting to see who's next!

    DAMN THE TORPEDOES! FULL SPEED AHEAD!

  • I'm just glad they didn't waste a second round pick on a guy that sucks! Tampa Bay took a guy that's terrible and it's affecting their whole team!

    ...happens to me too. My right hand dominates and rolls over the top.

    As has been said, it's hard to understand the Gould thing. Was always one of the best kickers. He, today, can't do better than the guys we've been using this season?

    BEING A BROWNS FAN IS A TEST TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU CAN TAKE

  • According to Tony Grossi the coaching staff want to sign Gould but the front office stepped in and signed Parker

    Gould cost too much money. For a team that is sooooo far under the cap.

    They seem to NOT. Want to win games

    Of course. Losing is soooo much better than winning. I really can't believe I'm reading this ignorant bullshit

  • Well gould and parkey have had the same number of pro bowls. besides no gurantee that gould would have performed better anyway. Pretty tough to have less than 48 hours for a game. I'll give the FO the benefit of the doubt on this one because you could tell parkey was rusty but his leg power is significantly more than murray's or coons for that matter. Murray could barely get the distance for a 55yd kick this parkey kid could hit at 65yds if needed. Coons could get maybe a 50 with wind at his back.

    I generally side with the front office over the coaches it would seem but hey you force feed a fucking shitty rg3 led offense to me with hefty dose horton give up 25+ points a game defense and i'm going to think the coaches are shit.

  • They had to sign somebody. And not like they had much time. This kid signed Saturday.

  • He might be able to kick it 65 yards long but when u add a 15 yard hook to it what good is it? So now he's kicking it 15 yards right so it finds it way somehow, miraculousy through the uprights?

    C'mon man.

    Grossi has bouts of being full of shit and he really hates the current front office.

  • All I know is that saving $$$ gave the Browns 3 misses to the left. Love this analytics because anal pretty well describes what that $$$ decision just did to the Browns. Fucking genius baseball loving Ivy Leaguers have no common cents.
