One of the things Taylor does VERY well is avoid pressure and scramble around in and around the pocket in a highly controlled, disciplined and economic manner, always looking downfield really good way, not (THANK GOD!) like Johnny Football where he's running around like he's playing with his nephews at a backyard bbq.  Buying this sort of time in the pocket creates huge gaps in the defense with the potential for MONSTER chunk yardage plays for Duke Johnson getting massive YAC.  Especially this is true late in the first half or in the second half when the defense has been gentled up and tired out considerably  by a punishing, bruising style of rushing attack.

It's a good video. Enjoyed watching it. Makes me ready for football to start. 

@htownbrown said: HBO casting Clevelanders for Cleveland Browns 'Hard Knocks' The show is looking to cast both diehard fans and "real people, not actors." Interested fans must be at least 18 years old and should email [email protected] with a subject line of "Hard Knocks." Include your name, location, height and phone number.  Not a fans beer gut size but a Fan's Height? ? What? are we honoring the last 98 year old munchkin from the wizard of oz as part of the application? Will there be a amusement ride measuring stick at the end of the line?  $323/day, Gumby will travel.. 

@skippinturtles said: Barkley is this drafts Myles Garrett.  A blue-chip position prototype.  Barkley is a full-sized Eric Metcalf.  A healthy Fred Taylor?  The next Marshall Faulk or Edgerrin James (we see you picking at #3 Colts).  Take him at #1 and don't look back.  Take Lamar Jackson at #4 and the backfield now has some serious athleticism and potential.  Throw in Josh Gordon and the next Triplets are born. OMG-Please don't be Dorsey.

Well there you go. Speak up

@diehardbrownsfan said: The Browns? lol... not what i had in mind, but that'll work.

@texasag1969 said: I think he's right. No one survives an 0-16 after a 1-15. No one. Yep, I just don't see how that's remotely possible. If there was a thread on predicting when or if Hue will be fired, my guess would be "Officially announced Monday morning, after the last game".

@hoorta said: 1) the Peanut Gallery has said numerous times a total gutting was unnecessary. 2) Bet the ranch Sashi, and whoever was in charge (hey War I'm waiting on who the hell WAS making all these 1\2 a$$ decisions) didn't expect the rebuild to be a total $hit show.  If you want to know so bad then search the last 6x you asked this question.

Didn't Dee Haslam write that article?..lol

Just as long as he was not in Berea, I'm good...

Next man up will have to make up for Kenny's drops. WSS

@mudfly said: Actually...no....I wasnt aware he had challenged him.... Listened to a Hue pressy just the other day and he was asked repeatedly to comment on Bratt....and wouldnt...(it was weak) http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/20778370/hue-jackson-cleveland-browns-challenges-kenny-britt-step-up "I have challenged our guys every day and I have challenged him that he needs to step up and make plays and I think he will, I really do," Hue Jackson said Thursday. (and if he keeps playing like crap, I hope you bench him) 

@tiamat63 said: Like I mentioned in the other thread @ 2:30 was a point for me where I saw a young QB check a safety and anticipate his receiver squaring off his route with (pretty damn sure it's) Njoku.   First for me was him checking to see that Haden had left the short zone following Britt before throwing that out to Njoku on 3rd and long. Time for me to crank up the camera for some photos of what I'm seeing... @jiggins7919 said: It's funny, we appear to have the opposite of Kessler.  I was just thinking, "Well, if he just threw it to the check down guy right away, we would've gotten 8 yards instead of the sack!"  And that might be true, but how many TOUCHDOWNS would we lose out on?  I guess it's kind of a tricky balance to achieve, and not one likely to be figured out in a rookie season.  The GOOD news is that Kizer definitely looks down the field, and by doing so, gives us the CHANCE to make a big play.  That sounds good to me.   Yup... I always felt that Kess saw the deeper stuff, but just turned it down... quickly. That;'s teh conservative play that got him benched last year and dropped to 3rd string this year. Kizer's conservatism is a different animal. He'll stay with his deep primary and then err on the side of eating the ball rather than make a 2ndary misread.

@tour2ma said: I don't think we are in a hurry, Ag. We're going to eat his salary, that seems clear, so the objective will be to maximize his value and he is a veteran QB with over a seasons worth of starts under his belt. This is it exactly. Even if we don't get any takers, although a well below average player Brock isn't a bad guy to have around for the 3rd string QB. Hogan can still go to the PS at this point so we don't lose anyone. I think he's more valuable to our team than say a 6th/7th round pick which is all we'd get for the guy at this point in time. However, if a high level QB goes down and Brock gets thrown around in the conversation of 3rd round or player who could contribute...

Reminds me of an old punchline: We've established what you are, now we're just haggling over the price.

It would explain all the piss poor tackles. But if that is true then they owe all the fans a refund. Paying to watch them lose on purpose......................idk I still stand by my statement "Sashi is not fit to run a popcorn stand" let alone a billion dollar business

@adoug319 said: Slow start.. Given his circumstances, I think he performed solid. No turnovers, moved the chains, took hits and got back up. I'm excited to see what he can develop into. I say give him the rest of the season, so we can know if we can build with him or if we draft a qb high with our two first round picks next year. He doesn't have a Wentz arm, but he's smart.. I really think we may have something here I enjoyed what I saw from him.. better debut than most I've seen on this team..

@the-gipper said:And the Indians win the World Series? I don't know. I suspect that the cubbies have made a similar contract. An 18 game lead over the Cards? Yep,the devil's been busy this year.
