Better watch out, someone on the OC is sending posts to employers...
He'll be moonlighting as a cook at the Mr. Hero at night too.

It was inexcusable to start the 27th ranked quarterback last week. There was no reason to do it. Absolutely none. If he wasn't going to start him. why relieve with him?

This. How many times did you have to watch 3 and outs and drives stall over and over to realize that Hoyer was not going to move this team. Hoyer had some good games early in the season, but he hasn't played well in a month. Pettine just kept sending him out there like he expected things were goiung to suddenly change.

I didn't realize you like Johnny Manziel over Hoyer.

There were 7,000-10,000 empty seats last week. Sad really given the importance of the game. Gee I wonder why that was? This week? SRO baby. Gimme some midget.

Browns fans are not happy. You're happy. Even more proof you're not a Browns fan.

Brian Hoyer did his Billy Graham show at the old ball park. 50,000 of us stood up and yelled "Jesus Christ"...all in unison.

Lane from OBR tweeted even though it was Manziels day off he was at the offices putting work it. Now I'm very excited to to to cleveland Sunday. With the possibility of Hoyer I was mehhhh I could give two shits of I go. But with JFF I'm too stoked. Definitely expecting a win and I could Gordon and Manziel hooking up for a deep ball or two.

You weren't excited to go to a Browns game when we were/are competing for a playoff spot for the first time in over 10 years? Are you IQQY or FW's son?

Who knows, people seem to leave out the part of that report that Haden was there with him.

I was looking at defensive rankings, and i was very surprised to see Cincy ranked 28th for overall defense.

Think at one point for awhile they had all 4 LB's out and maybe a DL as well.

Also just noticed that the Bengals just sent Burfict to IR. That kinda went under the radar.

He had been out for quite awhile. Played very reckless even after his concussion. He signed a big contract, which based on what he had done, was a good thing, but I am thinking he will be the type of player whom just wont be able to stay on the field.

I think the expectations of this kid, by a lot of the fans, is ridiculous. With some, it's almost a forgone conclusion that he's going to win the next three games. I think he'll be fun (and frustrating) to watch but some need to get a little reality (I'm not speaking to everyone). It would be extremely rare for him to pull off something like that.

(waiting on FW with the "Hall of Fame/GOAT" comments)

Haden may have been there, but they weren't together. I was at the game and my seats are directly behind where Manziel was sitting.
