    Pretty clear he doesn't want to be in Cleveland.

    He has an attitude that I doubt any coach wants on his team. He will probably end up with the Raiders or Cincinnati.

    Have to add the Patriots in there too. They have a track record of bringing in troublesome players and either brain washing them or hitting them in the head enough times to make them compliant. I could definitely see the Patriots looking to rip us off for him. They've done it enough times to other teams that I would not be surprised if they tried it here if he goes on the block.

    Seems like a team that is lacking leadership. Something is not right about this team. Rookies under performing, calling teammates out in the media, offense undisciplined, defense giving up and players missing meetings.

    Defense giving up? Did you watch the game last week?

    Rookies are punks and deserved to be called out by the veterans, and deserve to be sat by the coaches.

    I don't see anything wrong with how these coaches are handling things, seems to me like they are right on top of things as opposed to letting these punks get away with being punks.

    You are trying to find an angle to make an excuse for Manziel.

    He just sucked, plain and simple and it is nobody's fault but his own that he was unprepared. That's why they didn't start him until they really had no excuse not to. We handed him the keys and wrecked the car coming out of the driveway.

    Funny thing is, he doesnt get credit for an accrued season now. Only a restricted free agent at the end of next year.

    I usually wish everyone not in a steeler uniform the best, especially guys on our team, but this dude is just piece of shit squandering his talents. I hope we get whatever we can for him and then he pops dirty again 2 weeks later and king Roger bans him for life. Just another joker who had one career season with the Browns.

  • Excellent.

    Isn't Hawkins injured as well?

    Lets run the singke wing option with Shaw, Crow And West.

    Assuming West felt like participating this week.

    This is a general response, Zombo, a response to the situation, not the poster.

    I like to say that we are all hypocrites. We just choose WHAT we decide to be hypocritical about and WHEN is the time we do it.

    Let's play the blame game?

    Why was Farmer, basically, canonized by the press prior to being elevated to the role of GM, and, why do so many posters believe his track record has been anything but another disaster following disaster after disaster since 1999?

    Just trying to be objective here.



  • Was told the same. RT @MikeSilver: I'm told Johnny Manziel and Josh Gordon were both absent from the Browns' walkthrough today.

    Could've been they suspended him to keep him another year as a restricted FA. This suspension means he'll only play 5 games, and by contract you have to play 6 games to be accredited as a full season. Coincidence?

  • I don't think I have ever seen a situation where a more talented player was such a bonehead and constantly screwing his team over by his blatant stupidity. At this point it makes little difference as it's Week 17 and we're out of it but all this does is force the front office to evaluate the situation and likely move him for a horrendous rear ending in return. This guy is, literally, the Ebby Calvin LaLoosh of the NFL (before Crash came to town).

    just read that, looks like he is stuck or trade bait.

    NFLPA would get that overturned, Browns had every right to suspend for his no show this morning.

    I got a great idea...draft his replacement....oh wait, are we too late for that?

  • I just saw it on Facebook and would really like to see some sort of verification. I don't mean to sound like Woody but I'd like to see the actual evidence.

    My daughter said she was at the Barley house around 11:30 and Gordon and Manziel were there together. She said they left before her though.

    Well if you read the articles, they clearly stated that they did talk face to face. All of them. It's wasn't done through the media.

    Gordon is a mess. Watching him this season makes me wonder how he did so well last year. He seems destined for a fall. Hopefully he responds well and is motivated for next year, but that would be a surprise.

    Wasn't it manzier who has seen him driving like a madman? He seems like he has a death wish.

    Just trying to be objective here.

    First off, this is a thread about Josh Gordon, so you can't blame Farmer for him.

    If you are alluding to the poor seasons Manziel and Gilbert had, and the poor attitude West apparently has ... yes, red flags on the GM.

    It is mitigated somewhat in that Manziel is widely considered by the fanbase as a "Jimmy Pick" so Farmer doesn't get hung with that one.

    Also fans are very happy with the undrafted free agents he has unearthed including Crowell, Gabriel and K'waun Williams so that eases the sting of the higher drafted guys.

    Plus, Bitonio, the guy picked between Manziel and West, has had a near Pro Bowl season as a rookie, so it is a real nice feeling to hit on a high pick lineman.

    West has actually been productive when his attitude allows him on the field, so should we storm Berea with torches and pitchforks after one year, looking for Farmer's scalp because of Justin Gilbert and Manziel?

    Lots of rookies mature and produce in subsequent years so I think labeling this past year's draft and free agency a "disaster" because the first round hasn't worked out yet is a bit premature, don't you think? Can we just keep the same GM and coach for a few years and actually allow them to shape an entire roster before we do the torches and pitchfork act again?

    Zombo

    --P.S. Farmer also did a nice job in Free agency, landing veterans Dansby and Whitner that helped shape the defense that is holding opposing QBs to the lowest rating in the league.
