@poeticg said: Did they just free Josh Gordon!!!  ? not yet he still has that ped thing

“The first thing to understand about Wade Phillips 3-4 is that it is a one-gap system. The play call is made and the down-linemen attack. It is not read and react, players do not need to occupy space, read the play, then decide what to do. From the snap they are ready to attack.” ”What jumps out is the fact that while Wade runs a "system" the system is not what determines how Phillips uses his players, it's the player's skillset. This is one very understated characteristic of a good coach or teacher in my estimation--one who will get the best out of their player's by utilizing their skillset.”

@browns52 said: me thinks not.....the dude does not care about discipline.....he cares more about his daughter telling him to wear that stupid tshirt....and then he is so stupid as to have his jacket unzipped so everyone can see it....including the steelers...boy, that was real intelligent....he is a bubba....bubba kitchy...

@dutch-oven said: I honestly feel that the only way the Steelers can beat the Browns is if the Browns give the game away. ...but sadly, they're well rehearsed at that sort of thing.   They were able to STOP the giving against Miami though.

@hoorta said: We've  known  from the  get-go Dorsey  is willing to take  chances  on guys  with  character  issues.  Callaway was a 4th round pick.  At least  this time we weren't willing to  give the guy a  couple  dozen  chances like  we did with  Gordon. Fly right  or you're going to  fly right  out of here.  Good point H, Gordon got in on a 2nd draft..Maybe Dorsey gave Callaway till strike 3, cause he traded up 9 slots with Patriots? Dorsey gave up a 4th & 6th to Bill to move up 9 picks..Bill ended up trading the 4th to Lions..Da'Shawn Hand a backup DE to Lions.(think we might need a back-up DE?).Bill took ILB Christian Sam with the 6th..Sam is now playing on another teams PS..   Edit---Yes Gip, now that, That is off my chest, am moving on ... ? Good Luck in XFL/CFL Cab! ?

@flyingfooldoug said: Lots of folks wonder just what BIlls is or means.  It’s an acronym  Boy I Love  Losing Superbowls  now you know Then what doe Vikings stand for.   They too are 0-4.     Yet, those two teams have NOT lost the most Super Bowls.  Its just that the other teams that have lost more have also won some: Patriots, have won 6, but also lost  5. Broncos have lost 5, but have won 3. The 49ers have the best record among teams that have made 3 or more SB appearances:   5-1. (though Ratfuckers are 2-0, and  3 teams, Saints, Jets, Bucs are 1-0)

@orion said: 1)  If you elect to receive:   you could - start with the ball and end the half with the ball.  Then end the game with the ball.   That's.....umm....three 2)  If you elect to defer:  you could - end the half with the ball.  Then start and end the second have with the ball.   That's....three * you may substitute 'meaningful possessions' with the term 'the ball'. ---------------- If you receive, and you go 3 and out because they're doing something on D that you didn't expect.... If you defer, then you've seen their plan and can perhaps can make a meaningful adjustment to give you a better chance at not going 3 and out. Ya.... I wasn’t talking about counting on your finger type math.... was statistical stuff.... but ok.

@raven5220 said: I don't know why you guys are getting all heated up and bent out of shape.  I'm just telling you guys how your team's viewed by the rest of the league.  As long as most people alive can remember, the Browns have been non-contenders..the current ones and the ones that moved here.  Well, the ones that moved here UNTIL they moved here.  Cleveland's problems are that they are just a loser franchise, and that's much harder to correct.  One thing is for sure when it comes to the two teams:  Baltimore's franchise, the entire organization all the way down to the players, are well respected around the league...the Cleveland Browns are not.  Once upon a time, I felt really bad for the city/loyal fan base of Baltimore when they lost the Colts to Indy.  I thought the owner was an epic scum bag to do that to you guys.  When the very next owner wired exactly like Irsay does the same thing moving his franchise from Cleveland to Baltimore - he's your hero?           BTW, the Browns were 11-5 and beat the NE Patriots in a Wild Card Game just 1 season before Modell sold his soul.  Modell being Modell, didn't think Belichick was a good enough Head Coach to keep.  Just out of curiosity, what NFL Head Coach has the best record and most Superbowl Championships in the last 20 years?  I'll give you a hint: he's not coaching in Baltimore... In their first 10 years of existence, the Cleveland Browns participated in every Pro Football Championship Game possible (winning 7 Pro Football Championships with 3 of those in the NFL).  The Cleveland Browns only won 1 NFL Championship when Modell was here which increased their overall sum of Pro Football Championship Trophies to 8 up against 2 Superbowl Trophies for the Baltimore Ravens.  What storied franchise would you rather be?  I'll take the 8 Pro Football Championships...

I'd really love to have Trent, but I don't see any way it happens.  This really smells like a case of a veteran not wanting to do training camp,  which we see happening a lot now.  Clowney in Houston is another example.  When the season begins, they'll be out there with their teams.   Of course, I'd LOVE to have either of those guys... Hahaha.

Competiton for that spot for Hubbard?

@unsympathetic said: See ya, Perriman If Perriman wants to be a dick and demand high money with that stupid agent of his, he deserves to get Pryored.

(Continued from page 1 post on DTs) And last, but certainly not least, Ed Oliver. A polarizing prospect. With great feet and explosive strength, not great length(6’3 290). My only concern is the weaker competition that Houston played, you can see the whole O-Line blown up on some these highlights. Around the 3:40 mark, you’ll see an impressive display of athleticism from Oliver, who looks VERY twitchy.

Imagine if he got a real number of carries for the first 7 games

The Hollywood Higgins red carpet with paparazzis and the campfire against Carolina was probably my favorite this year.  The bowling ball strike is a classic..

@falcon7 said: "Nance is a great big." You're kidding right?   Ok obviously he’s not great yet but he’s a promising young player who wants to play in Cleveland

@tour2ma said: Great game last nite. Absolutely loved the call to go for two and the win. Makes me wonder what Williams has to do to make the job his. I was saying “they’re going for 2” as soon as they scored. No brainer call against KC. Philip was on fire. If GW wins out, which he may, it’s probably his job unless another candidate out-interviews him and he would get a HC job elsewhere lol. I think he’ll probably get an HC offers if we lose another game anyway.

@jcam222 said: Did you see the one that Perriman hauled in? It was nice too, especially for a guy who's knock was bad hands.  All that guy has done is catch every pass and block well down the field. I like him. 

@jcam222 said: I am not sure I agree that the defense has looked tough the last two games. I think they have had some big stands and plays but the overall has not been stellar i my book.  The score could’ve stayed 35-14 if Avery didn’t go low on Driskell(int) AND Collins dropped a pick 6. This week will be a huge test, I’m not sure  if Watson can be contained
