  • Everyone is over-reacting to the drops.

    It is still a small sample size and they are getting used to a new Qb. Baker's balls get up on you quick. (Sorry that sounded gay).

    We're developing Callaway,  Willies and Ratley.

    Higgins is a sure-handed, smooth route runner.

    We like our tight ends, we have a great third down receiving back.

    I don't see a free agent WR in this team's future. Depending on how well these three rookies develop they may hit up the draft again, but I think you'll all be singing a different song at the end of the Season, the Browns like their young receiving talent.

    Well said about the drops. People still sleeping on Njoku will be proved very wrong 

  • Hell, we have our wide receiver in Duke, like others have said. Keep our draft capital and develop from within.

    We just made a move. Stop it. 

    Right, we made a move, but it's a move for a first round bust. Heck, Corey Coleman's career is virtually Hall of Fame compared to Perriman. I don't think it's stupid to make a move before the trade deadline. Maybe not the "fantasy trade" type of move involving probowl WRs, but I wouldn't be against finding another receiver. And don't forget, the Browns have the absolute worst percentage of drops in the league. We signed Perriman who had a ridiculously high drop rate. I'm not sure adding him is the final move we make to the WR corp. 

    Right now we need guys who can catch the rock consistently. We can't lead the league in drops and expect to string together wins. And it seems like our drops always show up on 3rd down, which are effectively turnovers. Let's go!!

    It was pointed out- and I did the math. In a game where Baker has 50 attempts, were averaging one more drop per game than the very best in the league. Statistically insignificant. People are whining because that one drop came at a bad time. 

  • The obsession with drops is crazy to me

    Defended are struggling to cover Njoku because of his physical traits and half the board want him gone because of a drop it’s madness 

  • Yeah! Drops are insignificant!

    Sincerely, 

    Quincy Morgan and Greg Little

    For the year we have the highest percentage of passes dropped, by a full percentage point. As stated on Browns Daily last week. We just need to catch the ball better.

  • Callaway gator arms a TD. We dont need an upgrade at WR

    I have him as a bench guy on my FL, big potential, eh performer.

  • @louisville-slugger said:

    Our WRs drop too many balls. We can be a playoff team but we can't afford to drop 5 passes every game. Thomas would take over Callaways role, slants and go routes. Callaway and Njoku just can't catch. Win now and develop the youngster in practice

    Sorry, but it's not all about "this year". 0-16 to the playoffs? Start dreaming that if we win the next two games. The big window opens up next year assuming Dorsey hits the next draft out of the park too. A 30 yo wr isn't the long term future. 

    If we were thinking playoffs this year, pretty sure we would have sucked it up and dealt with Gordon's garbage for another year- or brought in Dez Bryant. 

    PS- I'll play along with your playoff dream.   7-4 (at worst) and 8-3 (better odds) the rest of the way out. Sweep the division- and BTW, play the Steelers on the road coming off a bye.

    I'm thinking we win no more games this year after this piss poor performance today.

    I'm not so sure of that. Baker had the sort of game you'd expect a rookie qb to have, worst by far. Held onto the ball way too long trying to make a play. The D had no answer for the Chargers power sweeps. Plus one of their TDs, give the guy credit- he made a great play, can't fault the defense for that score...

    i'll bet ol chucky wishes he would have stayed in the booth......heeeee heeee heeeeeee

  • Do you think we could trade for Josh Gordon?

  • I'll say this to the guys who are wanting a trade.   After that stinking performance today, care to rethink you position?  We got totally outplayed. It wouldn't matter- and you can name me any WR you think we can get, that the Browns are all of a sudden a playoff team? Save the draft picks for 2019.

    This is not a playoff team.

    We've enjoyed the first five games, but this team isn't there yet. There's more work to be done. 

    This was a rough loss, but we were due a stinker. The important thing is for the Browns to identify their problems and learn from it. 

    The Chargers are a legit AFC contender. 

  • We got outcoached today. This team is young but they are talented enough, with the right systems, to have beaten the Chargers today.
