    (I will say this however:  I think the league will be easing up greatly on the marijuana suspensions. And they may in fact be even now letting the likes of Gordon slide on this.  I predict that in a couple of years, after the new CBA, that the league will agree to not even test for weed.)

    Oh the NFL will be going easier on Gordon for sure now that he is with NE. Playoff team, Tom Brady. You think they are going to take away anything from the Pats in on one of Tom’s last remaining years? 

    The more I think about how much of a piece of crap Gordon is for pulling the stunt he pulled after all the times the Browns stuck with him, and how much they could use a WR just like him right now for a rookie QB the more I hope he rips the living crap out of his ACL and is out of the league.

    Interesting theory....that they would favor the Pats like that.   Considering Spygate/Deflategate.   Nothing could ever be proven that they would favor the Pats.

    But....factually what could be known....though it is not supposed to be revealed....is what the league is doing to test him now.   Is he still taking weekly piss tests....or are they even bothering?

    Inquiring minds want to know.

  • I find it hilarious that Gordon will line up this week against now in Tenn. *Malcolm Butler*...Most will remember, Belicheck refused to play Butler in the SB that cost his own teammates a better chance to win. Bill today still won't clear up what Butler did against Pats team Rules..Wonder what Bill does this time when Gordon slips up come Dec? Gordon will be able to hit free agency at seasons end..Good Luck with that Market Value price ?   

  • Flash had a great game last week 130 and a TD but I am not sad he is out of the Land. I do wonder why they would let him go for a crap draft pick when we are thin at the wr position, we lack play makers, we lack speed we lack Hands you name it we don't have it. Jarvis always has catches but for what yards? 3 or 4 yards per catch?  Coleman and Gordon both gone where we were counting on both to be there for us, Back in July looking in we were thinking, Gordon, Coleman and Jarvis in the slot...…………..Higgins is average at best but since his injury...….

    I was making a simple suggestion because I always felt JG was worth a hell of a lot more than a 5th, especially considering he was on his last straw.

    But I think the consensus likely around the NFL among GMs is that you were wrong....that he was NOT worth a hell of a lot more than a 5th rounder. 

    Maybe his former potential would have had him there.....his 5 years ago persona, but not now.  And certainly not with the risk of having him make one mistake that would get him suspended again...perhaps forever.

    You are probably right , however, I don’t think that reason is because of his talent. I think it’s because of his off the field issues. 

    He is only 27 years old. AB? Julio? Doug Baldwin? Dez? They’re all 29-30.

    Y’all can say “Brady makes him look good” all you want. The fact of the matter is he will continue to get better and that is ok with me, JG and Cleveland we’re not a good match.

    Or maybe you’re just a Wishin and a hoping that he will get better but that doesn’t mean he really will.

    We've said it at least a dozen times already. Gordon ran out of strikes with the Browns. Was it intentional? Who knows. But there are things called "team rules". You can't have one set of "special" rules for Josh- and another set for everyone else.

    Yes. Besides Bill the repeated cheater doesn't really worry about rules -and- they don't have a young team trying to rebuilt practically from scratch. 

    Flash will fly right and produce there or he will be gone and forefiet a fortune.

    The guy has been back one game and played very few snaps. Jesus man. I know I know he came back last week and played 10 snaps he should have had 180 yards receiving 10 catches and two TDs on those 10 snaps.

    Realistically he had a very good rapport with Baker and seemed to be his favorite intermediate target. He seemed to be doing very well at that as well prior to his injury. Give him some time.

    Yep, and he didn't have a setback. I believe Higgins will have a nice game tomorrow. Baker will have time to throw, Higgins should get open, and we'll score some points. 

  •  The purpose of the Board is not for your personal amusement- to get people pissed off. That is considered trolling\ flamebaiting- and it's not going to be tolerated.

    I hope this rule does not apply to pissing off/trolling/flamebaiting Steeler trolls.   Say it ain't so, Joe.

    Steeler fans are a special sub category Gip. As a group, they have around 1\100th of the tolerance Trollie does. I'm sure you notice, those Steeler fans get special name changes, courtesy of Z.  I vote we change Ghoolie to Trollie, or  something similar. Memphis Miscreant? Pile of dog doo-doo? Accordion Azzhole? Set up a poll, most creative name wins a bottle of wine.  🙂

    Higgins has worked his tail off and is looking great this year. I think he definitely has a bright future with us. He's probably a WR3 at best, but he makes plays.

    I agree and I am not sad he is gone. just wondering why we didn't get a player for him? BUT maybe Dorsey will be able to draft us somebody who will still be playing in the NFL after 2 seasons. What happened to other picks we had? Mathew Dayes? or whatever his name is, Other high picks that are no where? Christ how is it we can never get a draft pick that does anything? Don't bring up Myles or Baker I am talking about 2 years ago when the player should be in his 3rd season and producing? Only in Cleveland where you can have the number 1 pick every single year and NEVER get any better.

    That was part of the problem, and I'm not about to go into the litany of wasted draft picks we've had since 1999.  (or guys we COULD have drafted that went on to have HOF careers- Ladanian Tomlinson).  Two first round studs not counting '17 & '18 the Joes- Thomas and Haden.
