  • I'd give Gaines a break today if it weren't for the fact that his garbage play was selected ABOVE Gilbert today. There's no way Gilbert could be worse, but because he's not Pettine's guy we get to watch what we saw today.

    Personnel management of this coaching staff kinda sucks. Gilbert needs developing. And Mud has it right. You asked for effort out of the kid. He's given you it on SPECIAL TEAMS (not all that common) and you reward him with the IA.

    ...and play Bademosi & Gaines at corner! Brilliant! Also, Bowe had his only 3 catches in the Cinci game from Manziel. Why not play him?

    Bowe pulled a hammy, that's why he was inactive today.

    I thought Gilbert was Pet's guy though? That's what doesn't make sense to me

    Correction. He was made inactive as "Coaches decision" today. No pulled hammy.

    Bottom line is that Pettine's "dog house" has NO exit.

  • I have no idea how Gilbert is behaving as a person but there has to be close to zero chance he is a worse player than Bademosi.

  • So was he being "punished" or something? For improved play maybe?

  • Even a healthy Bowe wouldn't have made a difference. The Oline has gotten worse! McCown won't live to see his next birthday and Manziel only survived cuz he's half McCown's age, and mobile.

    As for Gilbert? We have two wins! Why would you not play your first round pick? Talk about destroying potential talent! We will never know! We've seen flashes but he needs to play. I never heard of anyone getting better on the bench. It sure isn't like we have anyone better. Too bad Pettine takes such a personal and vindictive approach to coaching. Yet Tramon Williams keeps being penalized to the detriment of the team.

    I hate to say this but this team quit on Pettine weeks ago! They don't care. Tashaun Gipson will be gone next year along with Crowell, Bowe,Housler,Gabriel, Mingo, Kruger, Mack, Starks, Williams and they won't be missed.

    DAMN THE TORPEDOES! FULL SPEED AHEAD!

  • Can't believe Gilbert was inactive. This tells me that we're literally about to cut ties with him after the season. The #8 pick...gone. Unbelievable.

    Honestly....its brutal......Pettine is trying to prove something.....just dont know what it is......

  • We need our first round corner out there playing, like Haden did... Haden wasn't an all-pro his first year if I remember. We need to see Gilbert in the game, you can't pick and then not play the kid, that's horseshit. Same for Manziel.

  • New article on Justin...

    Time is running out for Justin Gilbert to prove his worth to Cleveland Browns: Tom Reed analysis

    Couple interesting excerpts:

    He's played 31 defensive snaps in 2015, buried on the depth chart of a 2-8 team desperate for help in the secondary. Almost nothing makes sense about Gilbert's time with the organization, including his latest healthy scratch on Sunday, a week after playing a season-high 23 snaps against the Bengals.

    Coach Mike Pettine said there were no off-field incidents to keep him out of the lineup in Pittsburgh. After finally getting a chance to play, he apparently had a dreadful week of practice, raising questions about his desire to improve.

    and:

    Several scouts have told cleveland.com they had serious misgivings about his lack of technique. They believed Gilbert relied too much on his size (6-foot, 202 pounds) and athleticism.

    The corner is hardly the first high pick to enter the league with questions concerning his coverage abilities. The draft is often about projections, but as one analyst said: "(He's the) easiest bust I've ever called. Hopefully, the light bulb comes on with him."

    That's a disgrace. Of all the players who love the game they could have drafted...

    they went with athletic talent, because he was so good at that with inferior talent at wr.

    dammit.
