    Eagles traded Jordan Matthews today for a 3rd rounder would have been nice..Sammy Watkins shipped to Rams today.

    Wow! really...that is a lot of movement of supposedly big time WRs.

    damn shame we just got nothing out of that trade? Jordan Payton is correct out of UCLA, PED 4 games sat last season..The newbie is Leslie Jordan WR out of BYU with a few NFL stops.

    OK, but, what about right here, right now. Saw none of him last night. Is he cut bait?

    Higgins never saw a look from QB.With Duke getting work at slot,wonder is how many WR's we keep?

    Is Higgins cut bait as well? I think Duke needs to stay at RB....but I don't mind that he slots out a bunch.

    Can Crowe and Dayes handle the RB duties?

    the giants should give us a better depth on defense 1's,2's,3's.No team is in the cutting business yet cause stars such as Camella Erving step in for JT's all around..Pre-season games 2 & 3 sometimes starts some real game personnel. But Coaches put nothing on tape..imo Higgins, both Jordan's,the Bama kid? & Hall are in a battle for Final 4th & 5th WR. Duke/Peppers is 6th WR to open another roster spot if needed? Crows the healthiest banger that the league knows. But if we remember, Duke got greeted by the NFL running between tackles, but paid for it most the season injured. Till we put a fully capable O-line out to block you can't say Matthew Dayes can pound in-between tackle either. Nor get the QB's alarm clock ready to get ball out of pocket..it's going to be a long 9 days till Giants gip..imo Williams defense may win us 2 at best 3 games..But how many games can Hue's offense get us is the biggest question..

    The team looks significantly improved. All that matters.

    Yes they are. I especially enjoyed how well the defense kept swarming to the ball full speed and even more how few tackles were missed unlike last year when that seemed a constant problem.

    Man, I'm not one to get my hopes up but there's a lot of great throws in that video. When you consider there was one for sure drop and two for sure throw aways, that's a pretty damn good days work.

    If it's not the Brady Network yet, his other Patriots at the TV controls will damn sure try to make it be..damn shame nobody got to see a good Kizer showing, over a story that The NFL will be damn sure they stay on the front pages with..For AWHILE..

  • Yep, kid seems to have the Pocket presence and keeps his focus down field . . . definitely has an arm, that last throw looks like he just flicked his wrist and it was gone.

    The other video has some good highlights too . . . O & D

    Think they may have missed one stay route early on that he fired in low and away that was caught that was a well placed ball.

  • For anyone who is interested, NFLN will repeat the game Monday at 1pm...hopefully there will be no breaking news to preempt the second half this time around.

    Being in Florida, I listened to the game on the Browns' site and followed the stats and highlights on nfl.com.

    From what I heard/saw, I'm very optimistic about Kizer, but one preseason game does not a career make...especially against the third stringers. Let's hope he continues to improve and that Hue will give him his chance when he is ready to take over

    I'll take Garrett and Kizer over Trubisky.

    I don't think we're gonna regret anything.

    You certainly have a way with words. ๐Ÿ™‚

    I can almost understand a chicken thief. A man's gotta eat. But a cat burglar? Jed Clampett

    ------ It's kinda' early to be comparing Kizer to Trubisky (one preseason game).

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

  • what a load of bullhockey.

    1. Trubisky was the most NFL ready qb in this draft. Gloating over the first exhibition? Not priceless.

    2. I was/am a big Trubisky fan. Yes, he was really impressive. He seemed to be throwing mostly

    short passes, often to wide open wr's. Like Victor Cruz. Of course Trubisky was going to do well.

    3. However, he also had a few overthrows on longer passes, and two batted down.

    4. Kizer had one? batted down, and a lot of pressure. Trubisky didn't have Cam at LT.

    5. Kizer had some huge bigtime long downfield throws. Beautful, powerful, accurate way downfield throws.

    6. I'm thinking all the wailing about us not drafting Khali Mack, and we get Garrett and Kizer?

    Huge WIN.

    7. If it's good to go on just the first exhibition game...then you have to figure this guy is going

    to be a great qb.

    Weeden completed 15 of 25 yards for 179 yards and a rushing touchdown.

    Oh. That is Brandon Weeden. Go figure. He threw for more yards than Trubisky. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Then there is Deshaun Watson.

    15/25 179 0 0 15

    No touchdowns.

    8. Let's see...Kizer's stats:

    Recap ยปBox Score ยป

    STATS CMP ATT YDS CMP% AVG LNG TD INT RAT This Game 11 18 184 61.1 10.22 52 1 0 114.1

    So... Kizer completes 11 of 18...a TD... 61.1 completion average, the longest was 52 yards.. for a qb rating of 114.1

    9. Trubisky threw a high percentage for....166 yards.

    10. So, Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury - I submit to you, that Kizer threw for MORE YARDS than Trubisky, Watson,

    or even Weeden. On fewer attempts. It was WAY WISER TO HAVE PICKED KIZER and GARRET.

    Your honor, the defense calls for a root beer recess. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
