    Just read about it on Bleacher Report. It's a good PR move but won't mean jack shit if he can't perform on the field.

    no shit, how screwd up is our front ofc..farmer..hashit...i heard on espn today from a cleveland reporter...forgot his name....that the browns fo knew about the problems of johnny football but figured once he got to the nfl he would change...pfffffffft...are you flipping kidding me...even with rehab, this kid will have a long way to go...rehab is not the cureall..it's what you do after rehab....aa meetings..getting a sponser etc etc...even that is not a cure all...its all up in the air at this point....there are folks on this board that think just because johnny is going into rehab, everything will be fine....better wake up folks, doesn't work that way..i hope the kid can get it figured out even if he does not take another nfl snap..but it's not going to be easy for him...however, this friggin front ofc shit...when will it end..stupid stupid stupid idiots...

    Cool. Now we will have a clean QB who can't play in the NFL.

    The jury is pretty close to a verdict on if he can play QB in the NFL

    I don't understand your comment. Who says entering a rehab treatment center means being an alcoholic? Given the loose definition of alcoholic I would suppose anyone. What's your point?

    WSS

    My point is, you're not a very sharp tool. He was always an alcoholic. I'm sure you're going to draw up some more BS claiming he's in rehab for something else besides alcohol.

    there is no something else when you are talking rehab...its either alcohol or narcotics...it will come out eventually....i don't think he is entering rehab because he is lonely and needs some comfort...

    Well, after watching Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith discuss Johnny on their show, they seem to think Johnny has MORE than an alcohol problem. They seemed to be insinuating drug usage without coming right out and saying so.

    Stephen A. prolly pissed he nailed the wrong Brown...

  • since he blows at playing QB maybe next season he can be in charge of blowing up the footballs.

  • Hate to say it, but how many people that you know who went into rehab relapsed after a short time? I don't know anyone who went went into rehab only once. It's gonna be an ongoing problem that I don't see a good ending to.

    Good for him.....hope to see positive improvement in all phases.......Im sure the Browns are very happy....

    I also noted that his mid week entry coincides exactly with Dansby and Haden starting the positive press spin.....

    Ain't no party like a rehab party...

    Just heard a comment attributed to Haslam that reiterated his January comment about everyone in the Browns org telling JM that he has to show he can be a professional on and off the field and adding, "This would seem to be a good first step."

    Interesting choice of word...

    skip bayless is such a prude that anyone drinking a beer is an alcoholic to him.

    hell, might as well burn me at the stake now.

    Lol I drank a 12 pack in the rehab parking lot before checking in 25 years ago. Felt like I needed that last hurrah. I've been sober since.

  • Looks like those rolled up bills in the restroom were a bit of foreshadowing everyone knew but the FO.

    Great hes getting help..fuck that. Kick his ass to the curb and quit making excuses for this no talent shrimp.

  • I hope he gets the treatment he needs.....but yeah you knew it was coming....I don't think not partying will make him taller, his arm stronger or smarter.

  • I wouldn't kick him to the curb yet.

  • Nothing like your 21 yr old franchise 1st round qb entering rehab. Complete joke all around. Hope he picks up Heroin next.

    As some have said this is just the first step, albeit the most important. You can't turn you life around until you look in the mirror and admit it needs turning around.

    This guy is more of a fighter than most here give credit for. He will learn a lot and be given a lot of tools to continue the process AFTER rehab. This is a good thing for him and the Browns.

    He has far more skills than most here realize as a QB or the front office would have closed the door long ago. I tend to rely on folks like Haden and Dansby to tell me that rather than internet web site members who have not been at practices against him every day to give me an informed opinion.

  • well if they can put him on the rack in this 'rehab' and stretch him 3-4 inches and insert a node into his brain which allows him to pick up the offense and read defenses then i say stick with him.
