Maybe the Giants can trade for Moffitt after he fails his physical with the Broncos.

I just saw on the ESPN ticker that the Cardinals signed Dan Carpenter. I thought he might be someone we'd have interest in.
"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."

jc just in, per roto headline: Le'Veon Bell (foot) has been diagnosed with a Lisfranc injury, and the Steelers are unsure if he will require surgery. He has no timetable for a return. FOX Sports' Jay Glazer reports the Steelers are "hoping" Bell can avoid surgery, but "won't be sure until he gets it double checked." NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports Bell could be out "some time," and that the team is "pretty frustrated." Bell obviously needs to be removed from draft boards until we get a clearer idea of his timeline, but even a best-case scenario would likely have him missing 4-6 weeks. OUCH !

That's the injury that was the final nail in the coffin of Courtney Brown's career. Sad to see it happen to any player, much less a RB, but at least if it has to happen, it happened to a Steeler

jabal sheard has a bruised knee. Chis owens is also hurting with his foot arch and des bryant having more back problems. I think sheard might be ok...however i fully expect at some time for the browns to put Bryant on Ir and for him to have back surgery. The reason i think this is simple. His back has been bothering him since the start of camp...it isnt going away...seems to be getting worse. As for ownes...the arch of his foot is bothering him again. They need to just rest him. Playing on a hurt foot can usually leads to much worse. There is more info on twitter also. http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2013/08/tashaun_gipson_named_starting.html

I thought I saw that Lindell signed with Tampa Bay earlier.

Jaball bruised knee and labeled as day to day. This really sucks. I was really, REALLY enjoying watching him these past preseason games beast it and dominate. Day to day so no reason to suspect he'll miss the opener... HE BETTER NOT!

There were reports that Sheard said it wasn't a big deal and he's fine ... I think it was a rest day for he and Bess.

Looks like Mingo could be lost for a couple of months if not the season. It is sounding more and more like he has a condition. possible a blood clot in his lung or some sort of nodule or cyst. Injuries are devastating yet another browns team..... ...this is getting ridiculous http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2013/08/barkevious_mingos_bruised_lung_1.html

From the article... Quote:
Fuller stressed that the lack of an obvious trauma to the chest is the biggest reason to exercise caution. He said that in the case of Chargers receiver Eddie Royal, who suffered a bruised lung in practice last Friday, he came down hard on his back and also suffered a concussion.
On Travis Benjamin's runback that was called back in the Detroit game, Mingo fell hard on his back when the punter legwhipped/tripped him.
I really feel for the guy. Was doing everything right and seemed to have a great attitude.

As serious as this may end up being, I don't care how long it takes him to get on the field, just make sure the young man gets 100%. His long-term health should be the main concern of the organization as it was for Pinkston one year ago. As far as the team is concerned, we are lucky to have depth in Quentin Groves if additional injuries occur, particularly to starters.
With all the reports surfacing, this injury doesn't sound like anything to mess around with. Let the kid get fully healthy, internally. That's the most important thing.
At DT, context and meaning are a scarecrow kicking at moving goalposts.

Slick...every guy is out for the season with you...come on - you're lucky we aren't in the Roman days...lol
Again its a doctor who never saw him, never diagnosed him, never saw his test results. But its him that you are going to rely on the words "MIGHT" be out months or the season. But yeah wasn't it Pinkston last season spitting up blood n they found the clot??? All I know is they are going to MRI his entire chest area...poor guy is going to have more dye in him than an Octopus.
I mean you never know...sometimes good news turns sour. But right now they have said 2-3 weeks, that would be from the Doctors who have seen him.
Lewis...we can assume if its a slight fracture he will be back in 6 weeks ready for rehab/running etc. Yeah if its surgery with pins and plates - I would guess he is done for the season.
Gilkey played well in the place of Pinkston. With both probably coming back w/13-14 games left I don't think its a desperate situation as long as he is looking good. I like the kid n will like to see more of him. Don't know if this is a Lou Gherig proportion result. When Lava gets back.
How is our kicker...I liked both from the Lions game. Punter n the kicker till he pulled his groin.
Well starters will be playing 3 qtrs and then rest for most of the last Preseason game.

Defense wins championships. Watson play your butt off! Go Browns! CHRIST HAS RISEN! GM Strong! & Stay safe everyone!

Totally agree. His well-being is far more important than a game or two....or a season for that matter.

That's scary, but again, neither guy has examined Mingo and are not completely aware of all his circumstances. When the Browns say it, then it's official because the will get the facts from his doctors.. you know,, the ones that have actually met and treated him.

I am a little confused on Mingo's injury. God knows I love slick, but he does tend to take the Armageddon approach, but you don't. So, are there new reports out there that say Mingo might be done for the year?

Personally I've seen reports that say it is a total unknown right now. Some have taken it that he'll be back within a few weeks while others believe it won't be for months (I even read some who say it is career-ending).
So I won't even guess as to what the severity is right now. All I know is it is a very strange injury/situation (of course).

There have been only a couple of reports on Mingo. One is pure speculation (cabot) which is based on what a few experts that haven't ever met Mingo are saying is possible. And I can't argue those points because I"m not a doctor so sure, the doom and gloom they say is possible, probably is. (there has actually been several stories written but they all site the same doctors, one in California and the other at UH here in Cleveland, again, neither of which have actually examined Mingo)
The other report on Mingo is what Chud has said in various interviews. The last of which I "think" I remember him saying that mingo would be back in about 2 weeks (I'll have to check that but I think that's what I read, I could be wrong) There was another interview in which Mingo said a few things, one was he didn't know how it happened and it's never happened to him before, but that he feels fine.
I honestly don't know what to believe. But I think I'll defer to Mingo and Chud. They are "in the know". Or at least are supposed to be.
I don't see a need for a "chicken little" night at the stadium..

Barkevious Mingo's return to the field for the Cleveland Browns remains a mystery. The rookie outside linebacker is nursing a bruised lung he suffered during Thursday's 24-6 preseason win over the Detroit Lions. Browns coach Rob Chudzinski admitted Tuesday he isn't sure when Mingo will be back. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000...-browns-unclearNot sure where you got that Chud said two weeks? This is just the beginning of the article but the rest is pretty much a re-hash of earlier articles. I'm not all doom and gloom here, but it does seem as if they are being very tight lipped about the injury. It's only Thursday, but this will be the fifth day after the injury. Hopefully we'll hear something more definitive soon.

In my defense, I did say I could be wrong about what Chud said. I really think I read it somewhere, but I've not been able to find it either.
Anyway, the point is, all the speculation is from sources that haven't examined him isn't really what I'm thinking about. I'm only concerned about what Chud or Mingo or the Team doctors say (which will be nothing I bet)
still, until we hear from them, I'm just not going to worry about it.

I can't say I'm not concerned about the kid until I hear the extent of the injury.
While I do understand they haven't examined Mingo, I also feel their outline and guidelines about this type of injury are informative.
While it's certainly not a diagnosis of Mingo per say, it does outline some parameters about the injury itself.

I am sick of hearing the horror stories. Can some doctor, from Cleveland or the Brown's team or someone actually examine this kid and give us a true disagnosis and extent of injury/level of concern to have?
These dudes that probably can't even pronounce his name or ever heard his voice need to, for lack of a better term, shut up cause it could be greatly exaggerated the stuff they're saying.
Instead of smoke screens, can't the media relay information from more credible people and people more in-touch with the situation he has? Is it too much to ask for?

I've read a couple of times that they have established that the injury occurred on the OPENING KICK OFF. I have deleted my recording of the game. Any of the You Tube experts here can find a clip of that opening Kick off of the Lions game so we can see when n if the injury occurred then.
He just remembers it was then that he found it hard to breath.
I did a little research on his injury and what I had read is that it would heal within 5-6 days (normal people heal not Football Players) if worse surgery would be involved.

THIS is the difference between the Browns and successful teams.
The Patriots lose every receiver they have, Gronk is going to be out most of the year, their other TE gets arrested for murder, and it's "next man up"
We lose a couple Guards and a Rookie and we're doomed.
I refuse to have that mentality. I hope he's able to play, but if not, next man up. Win some football games.

informative,, sure... but your last sentence says it all, it's an outline of the parameters, not a diagnosis. People are up in arms over an outline. I'll wait for the diagnosis. that's all I'm really saying.

In years past, this would be the case with us. However, this season, I don't see anyone that we've lost that will have this level of impact on us. It IS 'Next Man Up' for us.
Lost Lewis? Big deal. We have people to go in his place.
Lost a couple of Guards? It sucks, but big deal... we have 4 other solid guys there and people that can step in.
Lost Mingo for a bit? Big deal. He's a role player right now, anyway. Someone else will play his role until he's ready to step back in.
The injuries suck, but they aren't world-enders like they would have been in seasons passed.
Browns is the Browns

Please don't compare this team to the Pats. We've had multiple front office staff, multiple back drafts and free agent busts and so forth. Pat's have had a good base for awhile now, and have been able to focus on depth. We've not had that "base" of quality people, therefore our depth is shaky.
It's always "next man up" but it isn't always "the next man up produces and we don't miss a beat"

I know, there is zero reasons he wouldn't but when he made the comment, I had that memory of Chud asking him what he got his Mom for Mother's Day. I don't know, I just found it amusing in some fashion that a coach asked that. That's all.

Gotta say, hard to own a performance car without wanting to test the waters. But, he has enough money he could have rented a track or a strip for an afternoon and a more safe environment. I'm very disappointed cause I was really down about all of Gordon's off-field issues and videos/images posted of him. Now Greg is kind of tied into this troublemaker persona and I really believed Little to be more "mature" than "stupid". I guess my impressions were incorrect.
Guess he needs to ask Jackson again if he can address the team and make another "speech" like he did in the middle of last season was lit a spark under his butt.
