The official Terry Pluto thread
-
Hey, Terry: The last time there was this much optimism around the Browns was after the 2007 season (10-6 record). What went wrong and why is this team different? – Shaun Holness, Detroit.
Hey, Shaun: The 2007 Browns had what I called a Halley’s Comet Season in my BROWNS BLUES book. Halley’s Comet shows up about every 75 years. And there are rare seasons when a journeyman QB such as Derek Anderson briefly has the magic touch. It starts with the QB, and Mayfield is the real deal.
-----------------------
It's all about the QB. I had no confidence in DA going into the 2008 season. I do not feel that same hopelessness going into this football season.

West Side Steve a bit slow posting today. ?

From below Pluto's article:
Rookie sixth-round pick Drew Forbes also worked in at guard at times during some second-team reps. And to my eyes, if you would have pointed to Forbes and Corbett and said one is a second-year, second-round pick expected to start, and the other is a sixth-round rookie trying to make the team, I’m not sure I would have been able to pick out who was who.
So early. But it’s worth watching, because Corbett is so needed.
------ RG is a position of concern. And we're not even all that sure about the Tackles...

West Side Steve asleep at the wheel. Terry's take on the OTA's. Interesting that he focused on Willies and the other guy I post on the other thread focused on Ratley. That's a good thing!

13. While former offensive line coach Bob Wylie was entertaining and a star of the 2018 edition of HBO’s “Hard Knocks” last summer, the Browns believe James Campen is a significant upgrade. Campen was the Packers’ offensive line coach for 11 seasons. The Browns consider him to be an impact hire. Wylie has not yet caught on with another team.
Wylie was a hot shit.....but the man did not believe in stretching exersises. lol Every dog I've even known stretches before doing stuff.

15. With Beckham and Landry not taking part in the workouts, receivers Rashard Higgins and Damion Ratley were on the field and making some plays. I liked Jalen Strong, who showed good speed and athleticism. He appeared in 20 NFL games between 2015-17, catching 31 passes. He missed all of last season with an ACL knee surgery, but looked healthy Wednesday.
10 catches per season is not impressive numbers. It's not gonna be easy to make our WR roster this year.

What matters about Odell Beckham?
-
I'm not worried about Beckham. Mayfield has a strong constitution and he will find him when he's open or about to get open. I don't think you will see him getting sacked so much like Eli does now. He knows how to use the pocket and how to buy more time to get the stars the ball. And he's gonna get it back more often with the majorly improved defense.

I understand that the volunteer camps are just that, voluntary. But OBJ just got traded to this team. And the team has a ton of new coaches and a new playbook. He should've made time in his busy OBJ life to be On The Job and In The Office, at least this year. ( IMO )

That's how I see it. Not a complete deal-breaker but Id've liked to seen a little better attitude.

I hope to get two Pro-Bowl caliber seasons out of OBJ, before he pulls the stunts that got him run from the Giants.
It's going to be interesting to see all those on here who are so behind him now when it inevitably goes bad later.
So I'll take two really good seasons from him... anything beyond that is gravy.

Winning is contagious. If we are winning you are not likely to hear a squawk from him. That seemed to happen at NY when they started losing and not while they were winning.
