On another note, how pathetic does your life have to be to allow an Internet forum bring you to the point of a mental break down like said? Said, SQ, and rock are in a very small minority of people who allow anonymous posters break them on an Internet forum LOL.


BTW, interview Quinn for the second time and just hire him. I would love a defense with that same kind of energy and swagger. I think we have the personnel to be like that too. They just need the right personality to get the best out of them.

I feel like Phil Taylor is our biggest asshole. With the right coach there is no doubt in my mind he could be a pro bowler. Hopefully Quinn is much smarter than Horton and actually plays PT for more than 33% of the snaps smh.

That along with him playing corners 15 yds off the WR. Drove me fucking nuts. I couldn't get rid of him fast enough. Pissed me off, and lol at anyone considering that bum for HC. Good riddance, I want a non dumbfuck as our DC.

Ward was the guy, as an outsider that I noticed had the swagger on the field.

Why would the Browns hire Quinn? He sucked as the QB against the Buckeyes in the Fiesta Bowl. They should hire Larry Kehres. His coaching record at Mount Union proves that he would be the best hire.

[h=1]Jim Tomsula Could Be Target For Browns' Coaching Search[/h]


Jan 20, 2014 1:18 PM EST

Jim Tomsula is on the radar of the Cleveland Browns for their head coaching vacancy.
Tomsula served as interim head coach of the San Francisco 49ers after Mike Singletary was fired several years ago.
Tomsula is defensive line coach of the 49ers.
The Browns spent last week doing background work on Tomsula.

Tomsula would be an interesting choice, considering how good the DL was for the 49ers. Would still prefer Dan Quinn out of the remaining known candidates.

I can't remember if I posted this earlier in the thread, but how do you all feel about this? http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/24413997/report-dolphins-didnt-tell-browns-about-bess-condition-prior-to-trade

I think it is a bush league move by the dolphins organization. At the same time, I am pissed the Browns didn't look into his character when they made the trade.... although the trade was a draft day trade.

I give 70% of the GFY to the dolphins with 30% going to the browns for even wanting to fucking trade for Bess.

I dont have an issue trading for a durable WR who has reputation for reliable move the chains hands, and is also a solid punt returner. I thought he was going to be our Joe J type. I do have a problem with lolphins being bitch boys about the trade though. I hope they are fined for this. Either way, I'm more upset about his contract and play this season than the draft day trade.

Def pathetic. Little guy is probably butt hurt about living in his brother's shadow his entire life. Wonder if SQ and rock had the same issue growing up.

Yeah, they probably should've mentioned the off the field stuff, but Bess had been reliable on the field since he joined the league.

I had high hopes, his College numbers put him on par to be Better than Gary Rice, or Ta'Rel Owings.

Sorry about your pain meds fucking up your brain. But...believe it or not, the percentages dictate that the better one does in college, the better one's chances of doing well in the pros. Now go take another Percocet and dwell on that for the rest of the evening.

this thread is about the Cleveland Browns. If you'd like to talk about your obsession with Romo, please start a thread about it.

So tell me how Ryan Leaf is having a better career then Tom Brady? or tell me how DION Lewis is having a better career than Forte right now. Or how Jason White and Tim Tebow are having better careers then Tony Romo?

Please I have nothing else to do right now. explain way.

Well expect think of your daughter

Ward replacing Polamalu in the Pro Bowl. That makes 6 for the Browns.

The hell is wrong with Polamalu? He just not want to go? Not sure he missed a snap all season. Good for Ward though.

Wizhurd posted this earlier. But its good enough to post again...
As for Lewis, he played at my alma mater
Deon Louis career #'s Pitsburg

2860 runnin yards
30 TD's
5.3 average

52 times he caught the ball for 405 yards.
1 TD

3265 yards from scrimmage

I can tell you he was a lot better than Forte.

103 catches for 985 yards
5 TD's

5250 yards from scrimmage
