Let's recap (I hope I don't miss anything)

- We missed out on acquiring Jimmy G
- We screwed up a deal to acquire AJ McCarron
- The Haslams went "nuclear" on our FO
- Our FO supposedly has leaks and backstabbing to media members
- Josh Gordon is re-instated


What else? What's next?

Well, to be fair.. all of that did happen before COB Wednesday so there is still time for more..

I'm glad the league delayed the Gordon decision until after the trade deadline.. thereby minimizing the chances that we would ship his rights off to the Patriots, where he would be a pro bowl WR for a while, in exchange for a 5th round pick and a case of mac and cheese.

I already consider the bye week a loss and if BO goes out and plays a good game for Denver on Sunday that will just make it worse to me.

We're going to make history and be the 1st team to 0-17

The Plan is coming along nicely. This is getting crazy. I need a week off to relax.

Hope we all enjoy safely. Bye week is a heavy favorite to win.

I want to hear from the FO and Owner and the Coach.

To me, from what I have read, Hue's hands have really been tied behind his back by this FO. Hue has requested we get multiple QBs, and the FO has passed, and it seems hue is getting the complete blame for the offense being pathetic.

I didn't know the Haslams went nuclear, so I Googled just that and got:

Ownership went “nuclear” on Browns front office on Wednesday

From what I've read McCarron is not a favorite on the board here, so I guess it turned out okay we didn't get him. (?)

I don't have anything against McCarran personally.. but if the Bengals were willing to trade him, that immediately tells me that they don't view his ceiling as being as high as Dalton's.. and I view Dalton as being just a little above average..

Oh, and I will add this.. if the Bengals did view him as potentially a franchise QB, but they are locked into Dalton for the next 4 years.. you don't even consider trading him within your division. That would just be monumentally stupid.

Actually, they do view him as a franchise QB. Marvin Lewis wanted to set himself up good when he becomes our GM next year. wink

I really, really wish you wouldn't have asked that.

Just glad to be off this week. The Browns cannot lose! WOOHOO! LMAO


The Browns finally have a leader in the building. It won't be long before Jim Schwartz is in charge. Thankfully.
