Forbath is nice but I sure wish Walsh could have figured it out because it'd be nice to have a kicker who could try 55+ if needed. I wouldn't even give Forbath a chance.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Yeah, dude has the weakest leg for a kicker that I can remember.

 

[BwareDWare94]

A lot of radio personalities and fans around here and saying "stick with Keenum!"
 
FUCK no. He gives you a chance to win but he also gives you a chance to lose to lesser competition. He's a capable starter on a really good team, but he'll never, ever beat a better team. Not gonna happen.

Man, the Browns have some athletes on defense.
 
With a healthy Garrett, I can't imagine that they're very far from fielding a legit defensive unit.
 
They really have a lot of young, raw talent overall... I hope they can put it all together, because if the Redskins sign Cousins long-term, I think the Browns will become my #1 team.

 

[BwareDWare94]

We just got robbed of a 40 yard pickup on a garbage call. I fucking hate Jeff Triplette. He's always been terrible.

teams have asked the lions about trading calvin johnson

lol what? You're not allowed to have a separate lineman go high and low on the same person, it's a clear rule.

 

[Hurricane Season]

And then they get bailed out on a bullshit pass interference.

Not a Cousins fan?

It was incidental. If it was intentional I think I warrants an ejection, personally. I agree with the rule. I don't think it applied to that play since it wasn't an intended act. Reiff didn't know Isiodora fell over.

Hated him since day one.

You can't hit the WR early lolololol

 

[elcheato]

Incidental is irrelevant, because then it becomes a judgement call you that you would clearly complain about all the time. It's either a rule or not, in this case it's a rule

That's too bad. He is pretty good. I think I'd like him more without the dumb shit like "YOU LIKE THAT?" and "HOW YOU LIKE ME NOW?" While we all know dumbass Bruce Allen pushed a good GM in Scot McCloughan out the door, Cousins buying into the "the GM doesn't like me" talk didn't help. Granted, McCloughan is very, very into "has-it-all" QB prospects and Cousins lacks size and I for one think he's going to kill his arm within the next few years.

Cousins isn't bad, but he's basically peaked

Honestly I say get rid of chop blocks at all levels of football. If you can't physically beat the guy you're blocking, too bad. Cut/chop blocks needed to go.

I think either Doctson or Pryor needs to show major progress in the second half of the season or Kirk is gone.

The Cleveland media is already asking the Browns to blow it all up again, and Haslam will cave to the pressure. It's inevitable. He'll prob hire Peyton Manning and clean house

 

[BwareDWare94]

I mean, aren't they in a lot of games? 1-22 be damned. They don't have offensive talent. This was a 5 year rebuild from the beginning. Let Jackson put in the work. The local media puts so much pressure on professional sports teams. It's crazy. 

 

[elcheato]

It's a little different since the Browns hired a front office with an "analytics" (they really aren't focused on analytics, it's too broad a term) background, and most writers cant do basic math, so they were against it from the beginning when they heard analytics
