<p>I meant how they looked in the preseason if that wasn't already clear enough. Colt McCoy has a QB rating of like 108.something and even DA is above 90. The point is it's not hard for QB's to look good when the games don't count.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/629369</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/629369</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[jrb12711]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 26 Aug 2016 19:49:01 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to random thoughts unanswered questions and anecdotal statements on Fri, 26 Aug 2016 14:59:23 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/calfoxwc" aria-label="Profile: calfoxwc">@<bdi>calfoxwc</bdi></a> <a href="/post/629234">said</a>:</p>

<p>the Browns. mainstream it has no luster to it anymore. the fanbase likes to chastise and mock. </p>

<p>do the players think they play for a team named after some old dead guy? or named after the Brooklyn Bomber? or some weirdly tempermental diva attic Sprite?</p>

<p><strong><span style="color:#800000">They may think the team is named after Jim Brown.</span></strong></p>
<p>what do you think the players and other employees version of the name is, what they say around the building? what they tell their family and friends when challenged with the question "What tf is a Brown?".</p>
<p><span style="color:#800000"><strong>They don't care as long as they get their paycheck.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000"><strong>Besides, the Browns are the only team except for the Buffalo Bills that were named after an actual person.</strong></span></p>

<p>i wonder what Josh Gordon says. does he defend us? does he say "i'm outta there asap, i just gotta show the league i can do it again".</p>
<p>i wonder if Gordon truly feels like he belongs in Cleveland like he says and if he truly is down for Cle long term. </p>
<p>does he feel like he owes us? or like a league laughingstock who read the articles and message boards while he was suspended the past couple years and now has a huge chip on his shoulder to shut everyone up? is he gonna cinderella story it to the moon?</p>
<p><span style="color:#800000"><strong>He feels that the team has stood behind him in his troubles....and that has engendered great loyalty in him to the Browns. Compare to JMZ.</strong></span></p>

<p>he was a 2nd Rd supplemental draft pick in a draft class of one. lol literally one! <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NFL_supplemental_draft_picks" rel="external nofollow">there's only been 43 ever</a>. the supplemental brought Kosar too.</p>

<p>Cleveland has been the island of misfit toys for a long time now. where the expectations are low and the sky is the limit. perhaps Josh is simply a man facing his demons (Thomas, Haden) instead of running away (Ward, Cameron).</p>
<p>personally i think he has the bug. i think if you cut him he bleeds brown and orange now.</p>

<p>most of the rest of the team probably does too...Mingo didn't (prayers are answered) and Gilbert the enigma looks to me like he only gives 85% effort. there's still time for him.</p>
<p><span style="color:#800000"><strong>85%?   That may be a bit on the high side.</strong></span></p>

<p>Jordan Payton seems soft to me. he doesn't seem the type that will ever bleed Cle either. i practice squad him and don't care if he gets signed. same with Gabe.</p>

<p>i'd rather keep all the rookie ILB's than Marlon Moore. sorry Bro but the Browns don't need utility WRs anymore w Higgins and Louis.</p>
