don't believe me? watch the mrs. haslam produced 'nfl road tested: the cleveland browns and see how close he and his family is with the mccoys. i think they both want to get nack to texas. not that i care either way. just looks like mccoy (as some have said) will be the only competition to weeden this summer/preseason.

I'm thinking he goes to Houston.

Closer to home obviously and it's also a chance to play on a winning team.

Houston drafted Kicker in 5th round last year who went on Injured Reserve with groin tear, so depends guess what his status is, Shayne Graham who they signed to cover played well, so who knows. I cant see any other logical solution, so maybe he will just retire or take a year off.

Nfl Radio is saying Ravens are negotiating with Dumervil

Since when do they have the cap space? Wasn't that the point of all the cuts they made?

Looking at stats below, I dont think Dawson has much choice as to where he could move so that he could be closer to his family, think for the sake of a 30 min flight he would rather stay with the Browns, just depends on the other hand whether the Browns want to resign him.

Maybe just for Phil's sake the NFL should expand and put a team in San Antonio.

Banner has been mum on the Dawson situation but said today that when Phil signs somewhere, it will be clear why he's been reluctant to address Phil Dawson's situation.

To me, that sounds as if Phil cannot decide whether to retire or move closer to home. It sounds to me like we don't have a dog in this fight.

Sounds that way to me too. They're leaving him alone to decide what he wants to do and I would imagine telling him that he can always come back if he wants to but keeping quiet until he makes up his mind.

My guess is that theres maybe a 5% chance he comes back to Cleveland. Most likely he signs elsewhere or he just says screw it and retires. He's had a great career, made plenty of money and he seems like a smart dude so he's probably set for life. Maybe he's tired of the work that goes into being an NFL player. I'm sure we'll find out more before too long.

Who fucking cares if they're pillars of the community. So we should over pay for Cribbs who is clearly on the downside of his career because the fans like him? That's a stupid ass way to run a team.

Dawson is a different story. I'd love to see him back in Cleveland but my guess is that he doesn't want to come back. His family lives in Texas and he probably wants to be closer to home. Who knows until he ends up signing somewhere because no one is saying anything about him.

Yeah, this is embarrasing... but not nearly as much as letting both Cribbs and Dawson, both pillars of the community and leaders on your team, walk. SMH

Figures with the hypocrite amish.

Anyone else have the feeling that the patriot's are going to snag him, wouldnt surprise me.

I say we steal him, why not. Lets just field a defense of 7 OLBs and DEs.
