Sooooo....we traded Carlos Hyde for a 5th? I'd have thought a 3rd.

Been very impressed by Ward. That quickness and fluidity is insane. He reminds me of a not-injured Jason Verrett except even quicker with his feet. I've got a lot of love for smaller, quicker corners that can just blanket guys. The Browns had an uncommon haul of picks, it's true, but generally I'm pretty impressed at what Dorsey did with them

Ward will probably be a better player than Verrett, I think. Jason was a good player but he was injured going back to TCU and IMO he never had the ball skills in coverage that Ward does.

He's got really long arms for his size too and he stays so low that he can dart any which way at a moment's notice. The way he breaks right up tight with the receiver and doesn't give them any breathing space is really something you don't see all that much

I know Browns fans that refuse to have any hope because they still hate Baker and Denziel.



Ok just one.



Because they are short.




He is like 5'7"

I'll take a shorter guy that will be in position to contest a catch any day over a tall "physical" corner that can't stay with anyone out of their break. Tell your friend he's a dumbass

He literally swore off the Browns for drafting 2 "Midgets" in the first round. His Words.

Wait Jackson said that? I'm stunned that RG3 isn't a good enough living example that duel threat QB's his size need to loving slide.

Not in so many words, but

quote:

Asked earlier this month if he focused of not getting hit when running, Jackson said: "No, I was focused on winning the game. I wasn't really worried about those big hits. It's going to be delivered. You're a grown man out here."

I'm hopeful that was just preseason rookie hubris. My major concern is that both his OC, QB coach and backup backup QB were all worried about his attitude enough to talk to the media about it.

I saw the Oilers get killed in '94, the Raiders of course lost when I saw them in '03 and '14 but hey at least I got to see JFF's hilariously sad first NFL start where the Bengals murdered him.

The only game that was actually good and fun was the one in Municipal Stadium, shameful poo poo right there

I think I'm either 9-7 or 8-8. Marv era it'd be 5-2 or so. Best games were 03 vs Chiefs and 14 vs Denver.

0-2 in playoffs though.

I was at the 6-3 vs Seattle win, then at the victory against the Bengals Weeden's rookie year. I didn't get back up until last year for the Jets game.

That Weeden game was loving infuriating.


That was back when I was teaching in Korea and I was watching the 4th quarter in the teacher's office. This really neurotic third grader who always got on my nerves was in the office and asking me questions about the game. And every time anything that went against the Bengals happened he would go "oooohhhhhhh nnnnoooooooooo" and I just wanted to shake him.

There was a DT running back a fumble like 60 yards before he got tackled by your fullback



Also, I was sitting behind a guy that kept going SHUURR-MUUUR after each dumb play. It was hilarious.

My 2 wins are the Browns beating the steelers in 1989, 51-0 I was 12 and Brian Hoyer beating the saints in 2014, 26-24. Browns backers party was great tonight. Got to meet Ernest Byner who was super cool dude. With all the Browns gear it felt like I was back in Cleveland.
