I can't do it but someone needs to post the video of the route Landry ran against Carrie.
Thing of beauty. Carrie has sore ankles this morning.
He bit on the outside cut and got spun around and lost.
oh for sure .... he froze him
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."
Nathan Zegura breaks down Day 2 of the Cleveland Browns training camp. The defense stepped up on the second day with a big interception by Terrance Mitchell and great play by Myles Garrett.
Browns 2018 Training Camp continues rolling with more action from the second day.
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."
When Browns players went through their conditioning test Wednesday, they did so in black shirts emblazoned with four words – hungry, accountable, relentless, determined – with the first letter of each spelling out “HARD.” When the team converged for its first meeting later that night, Browns coach Hue Jackson delivered a simple message. Nothing fancy.
Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
John 14:19 Jesus said: Because I live, you also will live.
Wow I thought it was a meme/joke/photoshop... that's seriously our slogan? I'm sorry but that's utterly stupid to be outright blunt about it.

In the day 2 video of TC , Landry drilled his foot into the ground and changed direction which left Carrie in the dust as mentioned above. Granted, no pads, but dang that was a nice move. I think he's going to be "our offensive weapon" really and unfortunately... will get double teamed because we have no other threats at WR.
*Edit to add* I am not making any commentary as to the greatness of the slogan. Most teams, if not all, use them, and most are stupid.

They still should have used Heartland instead of Hardland and matched the letters to that, if they wanted to. But they wouldn't have had to because Heartland is a commonly used word.

I doubt the Browns lose any games because of this slogan, but if there is an opportunity to rip or mock Hue, there are posters who will take full advantage of it.
Nathan Zegura breaks down day 3 of training camp as the Cleveland Browns wear their pads for the first time and the local community gives back by donating blood. Jarvis Landry and Tyrod Taylor hooked up for a touchdown today while Corey Coleman and Nate Orchard stood out individually.
Drew Stanton the inspiration behind Browns QBs RV, filling his role in tight-knit group
This training camp RV isn’t Drew Stanton’s first. Stanton and fellow veteran Shaun Hill ordered then second-year quarterback Matthew Stafford to arrange for an RV during the Lions’ 2010 training camp.
When Stanton and Tyrod Taylor had a “rules committee” meeting for Browns rookie Baker Mayfield this offseason, Stanton decided an RV was an essential piece for this edition of Browns training camp. Mayfield didn’t think he was serious, but now the RV resides on the Berea campus, and the quarterbacks use it as a getaway.
When asked if the RV was funded by the least experienced quarterback (Mayfield) or if it was a split bill, Stanton didn’t hesitate.
“I think you know the answer to that question,” he said with a laugh.
“It’s just a place to go unwind, get away from here for the time period that we have off,” Stanton said. “Nothing more, nothing less.”
The RV is what is making headlines, but Stanton’s role for the Browns wasn’t just to park a hangout disguised as a mobile home. He’s here to help Taylor and Mayfield in any way he can.
Stanton, who is entering his 11th NFL season with his fourth team, has been on teams with No. 1 overall pick quarterbacks at three different stops in his career. Mayfield’s high draft selection made bringing Stanton into the quarterback room an easy decision. Not to mention Stanton has a winning record (11-6) as a starting quarterback in the NFL.
“I think it’s just a process you go through,” he said. “Training camp is different than college football camp or however you want to qualify it. We’re here, this is our job now. I think you just wait for the opportunities that you can have the most impact with him. Really, that’s everybody. I’m here to fill a specific role, and in that role, I’m comfortable.”
In the spring and through OTAs, Stanton took it upon himself to master Todd Haley’s offense. Although he’s still learning, he feels like he has a grasp on it; enough to begin teaching Mayfield. Now, he’s a resource.
Learning Haley’s offense never stops, though. Haley likes to be fluid, always adapting the offense to what his weapons can do. Stanton likes that. “That’s the nice thing about Todd,” Stanton said. “He’s willing to tailor this thing to what we do best.”
Mayfield and Taylor are both able to move out of the pocket and improvise with their feet. All three running backs in the offense can also catch the ball. Jarvis Landry led the league in catches last season. There are many ways the offense can be shifted to fit the talent on the field.
Stanton’s role of walking the quarterbacks through those changes and shifts is ever-evolving, too. With Mayfield, Stanton just wants him to remember that everything will slow down.
“That’s one thing that I’ve tried to tell Baker from the onset. Every single day, it’s going to slow down. It’s going to get more comfortable,” Stanton said. “As a quarterback, you need to see stuff. You need to understand stuff and you need to experience stuff. You’re going to make mistakes.”
Mayfield avoided one mistake when he showed up to camp with his mandatory RV, a Forest River Sunseeker. Stanton will help Mayfield through his rookie season to make sure he steers clear of other mistakes.
“He’s done a great job,” Stanton said of Mayfield’s progress. “Are there going to be bumps? Of course, but I think he’s done a really nice job of coming out here and having a great control of this offense in a short period of time.”
• The siren sounded at 4:20 p.m., two hours into the third day of training camp practice. Saturday’s sun-baked camp crowd perked up. The first hitting of the year was “on.” Subsequent action in 11 on 11s proved not to be action-packed. A few plays of note:
Defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi wormed into the backfield and dropped running back Nick Chubb for a loss.
Wideout Corey Coleman beat cornerback T.J. Carrie deep down the left sideline. Tyrod Taylor underthrew by plenty. The crowd groaned.
Taylor took off on a scramble, then bucked into another gear as he broke through the secondary. He waved the football to spectators in a VIP tent.
There was no hitting or much of anything worth remembering 10 minutes later. Coach Hue Jackson came away underwhelmed. Asked to characterize the session, the head coach was at a loss for words. “Um … OK … All right,” he said. He’ll need more than he saw Saturday to be back at camp in 2019. “We’ve got work to do,” he said.
• Starting strongside linebacker Jamie Collins practiced in 11-on-11 drills for the first time since last year, when he suffered a season-ending torn medial collateral ligament in his right knee Nov. 12 against the Detroit Lions. “I was glad to see [Collins back in team drills],” Jackson said. “I asked him, ‘Hey, how many plays did you go?’ He goes, ‘More than I was supposed to, but it was good.’ That was good. He was fired up about it.”
• Rookie No. 4 overall pick Denzel Ward, the Nordonia High School graduate who’s slated to start, stopped practicing the last couple of team periods. “He is fine,” Jackson said. “I think he will be fine.”
• Defensive tackle Caleb Brantley returned to practice after leaving the field the previous two days with cramps.
• The Browns have spent the second weekend of camps in various sites throughout the expansion era. In 2000, they scrimmaged the Indianapolis Colts in Columbus, giving fans a chance to see 1999 No. 1 overall pick Tim Couch face 1998 No. 1 pick Peyton Manning. In 2001, in Rochester, they scrimmaged the Buffalo Bills, whose head coach was Gregg Williams. More recently, they ran a scrimmage at the University of Akron. Mostly, they have conducted a second-weekend intrasquad scrimmage in their own stadium. This year, they’ll stay put in Berea. “The scrimmage will be here next Friday,” Jackson said. “It’ll be like the ones we’ve had at FirstEnergy.”
Except, without the stadium.
• Joe Thomas recently broadcast his opinion that rookie second-round pick Austin Corbett is a guard, not a tackle. Corbett nonetheless is getting a look at Thomas’ old spot, left tackle, in addition to taking turns at guard. Veteran left guard Joel Bitonio laughs this off as his old pal Thomas straining to build a career as an analyst. Bitonio (smirking): “Joe is trying to have some hot takes.”
• Imagine what it would cost for a television that takes up almost an entire bedroom wall. The Browns are using a screen about that size behind the huddle to show instant replays. Coaches now can do more than explain what went wrong on certain plays. They can show it on the field while they explain. “It’s a real good thing to have,” Jackson said.
• Wideout Jarvis Landry hobbled away from a play. Jackson said it wasn’t serious. “He got stepped on,” the coach said. The Browns’ 2008 camp ended on a sour note when wideout Braylon Edwards, coming off a monster year, had his right foot stepped on by fellow wideout Donte Stallworth. Edwards, who wasn’t wearing a shoe, wound up missing enough action to mar the first part of his season. Landry was wearing shoes Saturday.
• The left tackle job is far from settled. Shon Coleman ran with the ones a third consecutive day, but coaches still want to take long looks at 2014 No. 2 overall draft pick Greg Robinson and intriguing undrafted rookie Desmond Harrison. Robinson figures to spend a few more days in concussion protocol after getting belted on the head Friday. Harrison missed a third consecutive day of practice with a toe injury. The versatile Corbett is helping to offset the fact Robinson and Harrison are missing.
• It was a rough Saturday for wideouts fighting for an opening that might not even exist. Veteran wideout Jeff Janis missed practice with a knee issue. Undrafted rookie Derrick Willies took a tongue-lashing from an assistant coach after missing an assignment. Long-shot wideout Blake Jackson broke wide open after a cornerback slipped but took a poor path to a ball that hit the ground in bounds. Young wideout C.J. Board yelled in pain at the end of one route and spent several minutes grimacing, trying to walk off some pain or other.
• Perhaps you didn’t know this about Corey Coleman. The former first-round draft pick is a southpaw. After he catches passes during camp drills, he flips the football to a ball boy with his left hand. Meanwhile, there is still plenty of mystery about Coleman, who is trying to prove the Browns didn’t make a mistake by making him the first wideout taken in the 2016 draft. Coleman’s third day of practice was a mixed bag. On on play, he was open deep by a half step, but when Taylor’s pass arrived slightly under thrown, he couldn’t wrestle the ball away from cornerback T.J. Carrie.
Part of the 2016 scouting report praised Coleman’s ability to come up with the ball in traffic. At times Saturday, Coleman moved about as if he was hurting, but he stayed in practice. He moved slowly into a punt-return drill overseen by Josh Cribbs. On his first try, he bobbled the ball.
• From the perspective of a safety, tight end Darren Fells is a load. On one play Saturday, Fells looked like a freight train after catching the ball, turning upfield, and seeming to take delight in his building head of steam. Fells was signed away from the Lions as a better blocking option than Randall Telfer. At 6-foot-7, and 270 pounds, he can move some flesh. Yet, he also looks like an athlete worth working into the passing game. He was a pro basketball player for teams in five countries before his brother talked him into coming back to the USA. He had been a standout tight end for a California high school. His travels have taken some time. He is 32 years old.
• After a second-day lull in attendance, the first training camp practice in pads drew a big crowd. The large temporary grandstand on the northeast corner of the practice fields as mostly full.
• The Browns will practice in pads for the second consecutive time Sunday. The session is scheduled to run from 3 to 5:55 p.m.
yeah Allen has some pretty bad throws on film thus far ... time will tell with him, but early returns aren't good
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."
Have you guys read about how Josh Allen is doing? It's very very very very very early, but at this point it seems like we dodged a bullet.
(There are a bunch of videos of him online missing wide open guys horribly.)
A bullet that was never the caliber of our weapon...thank goodness we got a football person making that decision. I'm sure Hue didn't want anything to do with him either as accuracy is a key for him. Darnold missing camp and has been ok but not great. Haven't heard anything on Rosen, I'm sure he's doing good.
I think we got the right guy! Of course I knew that prior to the draft...lol
Defense wins championships. Watson play your butt off! Go Browns! CHRIST HAS RISEN! GM Strong! & Stay safe everyone!
I was watching that first video and the thing that stuck out the most was just how short our qbs were. You couldn't even hardly see them behind the line.

Think on the bright side: at least the DB's won't be able to read our QB's eyes...
When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the losers...Socrates
I thought Coleman was doing good where do you get the negatives.
What are you assessing the LT position from. We haven't started hitting yet. Again can you share the negatives or are you speculating.
And btw Josh Allen sucks so what. Sometimes I just don't get you. You are so wanting all to post what where and how you want. I like your football always did. But so many times you have to end a good post with nudges of These posters will bash Hue or These posters will talk about Josh Allen...SO WHAT! let us slam Josh Allen. What you gave us was nothing. Except we got short QBs, SO WHAT I know Rosen is not short. We are in some dilemma at LT, Joe Thomas cannot be replaced pure and simple. We got to adjust.
The Coleman thing, I came away with the total opposite, did I miss something? Please give me more details about it. Thanks. And don't take this as an attack just communicating and my questions are sincere.
Defense wins championships. Watson play your butt off! Go Browns! CHRIST HAS RISEN! GM Strong! & Stay safe everyone!
