  • i'm tired of this rookie ring around the rosie QB shit. FOs nowadays seem to be befuddled and can't pick a QB in the draft to save their lives. sure you got the can't misses but what does that garner 1 or 2 starters per draft?

    i say quit fucking around and get a low mileage vet that has played whole seasons on championship caliber teams and has played against championship caliber defenses.

    alex smith anyone?

    The problem with that is they get to pick where they play. And even theyre no guarantee. Kevin Kolb anyone?

    kolb was a scott mitchell flash in the pan.

    And KC is just itching to give him away.

  • Surprising how bad the offense looks considering we have the next Kurt Warner as the starting QB.

  • Hi. Can't you guys tell whe a team is playing possum? Ryan Hoyer will be another QB like the greatest QB in Browns history, one Brian Sipe. Write it down!

  • Without better line play, no QB is going to succeed.

    Imagine if we had Peyton Manning. He wouldn't last a week.

    Maybe this Ryan guy will, but Brian Hoyer definitely will not. I dont think a team that has sucked for 15 years is being purposely awful.

    or even the next michael vick.

    sorry vick was a lot faster with a better arm.

  • I thought JFF looked pretty good. Think he will turn out fine soon.

  • Steve Young took 8 years of seasoning before having a HOF career.

    Yeah but Johnny Manziel farts rainbows.

  • One thing is for sure, Haslam doesn't fuck around.

    I wouldn't be at all surprised if he blows it up if they only win 1,2,3,4 games.

    There is no FUCKING EXCUSE for the losing.

    Andy Reid took over a 1-15 Cheifs team and those boys played.

    Chip Kelly took over a shitty Eagles team and they went to the playoffs.

    So far, Mike Pettine is a fucking dud.

    It's great that you brought up the Eagles of last year because it's a good comparison - you had a new offence installed, new coaches, and some talent on both sides of the ball and a QB controversy.... what happened - they went 1-3 to start the season with pundits and the twitter-verse piling on Chip Kelly ...than it clicked a little bit , than they sucked for 2 games- than they exploded- shit takes time, and even though it is borderline unrealistic for anyone to expect a total turnaround from the Browns this season, you are correct in saying other teams have done it, so why not us.... however it is an act of lunacy that anyone would expect them to turn it around by the third preseason game...so everyone needs to chill out and actually see how the season develops before calling out the organization...

    PS The Chiefs are not a comparable situation because Andy Reid had been a successful head coach for a long time and a solid QB who knew the offense and there was no question he would be #1 QB...

    Eagles:

    QB Competition between Vick and Foley

    Talented play-makers on offense and defense

    First time NFL Head Coach

    New Offense

    New Defense

    Started out 1-3 , went to 3-5 - got their shit together - playoffs

    Chiefs

    Alex Smith Definitive #1

    Talented play-makers on offense and defense

    Long time winning head coach

    Same offense installed as #1 QB's system

    New Defense

    Started off 9-0

    finished 11-5

    Browns

    QB competition

    Talented playmakers on offense and defense

    First time NFL head coach

    New offense

    New Defense

    Started off?

    Finsihed?

    We also have the next "Johnny" come lately.

  • I think it would also be a good idea to point out that San Fransisco just scored their first offensive touchdown of the pre-season yesterday. Their offense appears to be quite putrid as well.

    While the passing game is nothing short of below average, they do have a very effective ball control offense based on the run game that's yielded great success the past few seasons.

    Again I'm willing to withhold almost all judgement(s) until we see how this team performs in the regular season. It wasn't but this time last year when Weeden was looking like a fringe pro-bowler.

    Hahahaha, people getting butthurt over preseason(fake football) is the best comedy! I'm glad the browns are shitting the bed in preseason. Everytime a Cleveland qb looks good in fake football games (weeden,McCoy) the real football games are an embarrassment.

  • We're stuck with Pettine get over it people. For better or worse this is our coach for the next 4 years at least. If we wanted to get rid of him within that time period we'd have to work out some deal with him where he fakes Leukemia as his excuse to "resign". If the browns fire him you'll be looking at procession of Div 3 coaches here in Cleveland for decades. Or special teams coaches from NFL Europe. Hell the Browns might be the first team in professional sports history to host open tryouts for their coaching staff. Anyone can show up and they have you simulate a season of madden. Right now the Raiders are still the most undesireable team to play for according to player polls, but I know Cleveland ain't far behind. Firing pettine anytime soon and we just might yank that coveted award away from the raiders.

  • There are literally no highlights to even talk about. That game was a shit show. Maybe once the Josh Gordon shit plays out and Hoyer can just react like he was doing last year, instead of think so much, then we will be ok. The Bills have also looked like pure shit, so if we dont get our shit together, we may be picking 2 times in the top 5 next year.

    that sounds great. THe draft is our SB every year so why not eh? Picking twice in the top 5? Oh the possibilities that would never pan out are endless.

  • Just checked, we're #3 behind the BIlls. Awesome.

  • you gotta believe things will improve against the bears......they can't get worse.....
