Flash Is Back

Gordon is like a ticking alarm clock. When wil he return to the team? When will he practice? When will he play? When will he Shmuck up? When will go away? So much drama with a guy that has played 5 games in the last 2 years.

Yeah, we've all figured out you're not keen on the guy. Assuming he can stay away from the weed and booze, you take your chances on a guy with all-pro talent who's working for peanuts this year.

Easy there newbie from the limpdick state...
First thing is to win a starting job... which he may well do, but lotta rust on JG and in case you haven't noticed... we have three WRs ballin' out.
Yup... sorta a major prereq to my happy ending.
Josh winning the starting job won't be immediate, and will obviously hinge on his knowledge of the offense more than anything else. His conditioning won't as good as other receivers, but it also won't be terrible either. The main issue will be whether or not he's a liability to our offense. Running the wrong routes, timing problems, etc. He's missed all of training camp so far, and that's not a minor thing, but let's also not forget that he was in the facility for minicamp and OTA's for the first time in his career. That has to count for something.
In terms of winning the starting position, as long as he knows the offense, it obviously won't be an issue. As good as Higgins has looked, he's a far cry from Gordon. When I watched who Baker was throwing to against Buffalo, I couldn't help but think, "How would he be doing with our starting WRs?"
Good luck Josh. You have more support than you know.

Oh.... I'm pulling for Josh, but let's be realistic.... the Gordon of whom you speak hasn't been seen in years.
When I read the title of this thread I thought somebody was a couple weeks late in honoring your return.
I was gonna say, he's been called a lot of things and Flash isn't one of them. Speaking of late, glad to see you back and in regular season form already.
lol... thanks, Flugs.
Enjoyed being away... am enjoying being back.

Did anyone catch the curiously phrased Hue quote on Josh’s return? Particularly the “how long he stays” part, almost implying he might take a leave of absence again. I’ll paste it below.
“I am confident that he is here,” Jackson said. “I think that is the most important part. How long he stays, only Josh knows that, but I think he is in a much better place. I think we feel very good about where he is. I think all those things, as you guys know, are always fluid. That is always a concern, but at the same time, we are here to support, help and try to create the right environments for Josh.”
Jackson said. “we are here to support, help and try to create the right environments for Josh.”
Well now isn't that nice. How 'bout a private dressing room...with a star on the door?

Quite a contrast to the treatment JM got.

Quite a contrast to the treatment JM got.
1. He was a QB. Supposed leader who fled the team.
2. He never got sober while a member of the team.
I'm sure if he did, he would have been welcomed back, in fact, didnt he do rehab once and the Browns welcomed back, said all the right things, no?
Oh, and he sucked.

Whut, U mad? Difference is Ag- Johnny didn't enter the League with a couple strikes against him like Josh did. Or you want to say JM wouldn't have flunked a couple drug tests on the booze end, and highly probable on the cocaine front? Protocol the same? Josh never beat up a GF either.
Plus- Gordon had a Pro Bowl season on his resume- Johnny had nada.

You both made my point. JM as not treated with kid gloves because they didn't care that he had a major drug/alcohol problem. JG has the same thing with many more failures over many more years, but they treat him different only because of the obvious talent. And Hue made it clear he was not welcome back under any circumstances as soon as he walked in the door.

That last is the most critical

I kind of agree in that the productive version of Gordon hasn't been seen in years, but then I think back to last year and to Gordon's first game against the Chargers. The Gordon that hasn't been seen in years? Yeah, he was there against the Bolts. Don't look at the 84 yards receiving, or whatever he had. Look at the amount of total WHIFFS Kizer had to Gordon, and not on short stuff. We all realize that no QB hits EVERY throw, but I went back and watched Gordon in that game, and he could've EASILY had 200 yards. I'm not even exaggerating. Kizer missed a 65 yard TD pass to Josh on that weird offensive lineup, and there was also another deep miss. So while I agree that Gordon hasn't technically been seen in years, he's still lurking close by.

I think so, in fact, I'm betting we see him during the last preseason game. At least for a little bit. We're going to want Josh to get some live reps in a game before the real thing comes around. I'd bet Josh gets cleared for practice this weekend, possibly even by Friday.

Yeah, but that's an old article. Does Goodell have to sign off? Maybe, maybe not. There were reports Josh gets cleared to practice when his medical supervision gives him the OK to do so.
