    Actually the Pats are thin at WR, until Edelman comes back. I'm not going to go to NFL.com and dig up the article, but they spelled out pretty clearly why they took a flyer on Josh. The short version is losing to the Jags, they just double covered Gronk on every play, and dared Brady to beat them with the rest of his rag-tag group of WRs. With Gordon and Edleman on board, teams won't be able to do that.  

    If Gordon is on the field, and like we've ALL said a 100 times, that's a giant if...but IF he's on the field with Gronk and Edelman, it's not going to be fun defending them.  You've got Edelman on the choice routes, you've got Gronk in the middle, and you've got Josh flying around deep and wherever else.  Here's the other thing:  Josh is ABSOLUTELY electric with the ball in his hands.  His YAC production and ability to separate after the catch are top notch.  Does ANYONE hit receivers in stride better than Brady?  I mean, not really, right?  We couldn't Josh the ball in stride if we walked down the field and HANDED it to him, but that will NOT be an issue with the Patriots.  As we know better than anybody, getting Josh actually ON the field is a difficult task, but if he's there....watch out.  

    Also, don't forget Josh is actually injured, too.  He injured the hamstring right before coming to the preseason, and he re-injured it during his off the books promo shoot.  He may be more injured than we think.

    Had an MRI yesterday....the hamstring magically repaired itself as soon as he was traded.

    Wow.  Well, expect him to go bananas.

    And the other comment I read was that it's basically a try out for them anways until Edelman comes back.   If he can't cut it (and many can't with the Patriots) they'll just release him to...and boy wouldn't that be funny after the last 24 hours of whining around here?

    Only yesterday someone was bemoaning the fact that coleman was now with the pats....as in, he's not good enough for the browns but he is for them. Yeah well now he's not, binned in the blink of an eye. Josh could well go the same route...BB certainly won't be swayed by sentiment, it will be yes or no.

    That article said the Patriots run a very complex offense, I wouldn't expect Josh to be much more than a decoy for a couple of weeks.

    That's a fair point.  It's one of the reasons why Tom and Edelman are so difficult to stop.  They run complex checks and audibles, choice routes that take time to understand and sync up.  But...it doesn't take much to send in Josh for a quick slant, deep go, or anything against zone.  I can already see the play-action pass to Josh on the slant.

  • hamstring got that good ole adios cleveland bump now did it?

  • thats some good sht right there

  • I guess it wasn't monday but it sounds like it might be friday if we lose this thursday night

    Says whom?   I really can't blame Hue for either one of the losses.  No wasted timeouts so far.   Penalties which were a problem all preseason actually went down week 1 to week 2.   I still don't think he's a great HC but I don't see him being fired this early in the season no matter what happens Thursday night.

    It was just and nfl insider who says he believes this is what is going to happen and he thinks that haley will replace him.

    I think if there was a chance he would be blown out after 3 games, they would've just made the change in the offseason to start fresh.   I have to believe that Huey has a longer leash this season than that.

  • The worst coach in the history of the NFL, coaching the worst team in the history of the NFL just orchestrated the worst trade in the history of the NFL. Hue needs to be gone... yesterday.

    so clearly you chose not to read the article that said that Hue had little to do with trade.    And another one of you....over react much?  Far from the worst trade in the history of the NFL.  Not even the worst trade in the history of the Browns.

    The way I heard it was that dorsey wanted to bring in his own guy from the start but haslem wanted to honor his contract with hue. I wouldn't have been surprised if his leash was just a little bit tighter. Maybe even that of a 2-2 start? Maybe its not fair but this is league based on wins and what have you done lately's

    It's all possible.  Although...a 2-2 start or a 1-1-1 start after 1-31 would be pretty damn good in my opinion.

    I think they also believe that win you are talking about has to be at home.

    That would certainly be nice.  Especially this Thursday night since I'll be in attendance for my one trip to Cleveland each season.

  • Wow, so I just found out that Gordon actually got it cleared from the team to shoot the promotional video first and then he pulled his hamstring tight after 90 minutes of shooting the hype video. He was only 10 minutes late to the meeting. 

    Shmucking Browns, I hate you.
