posted by BR1986FBNo, I'm "shitting" on a LB that led the league in missed tackles (Schobert) and a JAG (Kirksey), Had nothing to do with the performance of Wilson in a preseason game. When Wilson was drafted I thought he'd supplant one of these guys. Thought he was a HUGE steal. Takitaki is a high motor guy who loves to make contact. Just think Dorsey upgraded the athleticism at the position quite a bit.
I guess you did say that was a hot take.
I saw the Callaway thing may just be the punishment finally coming from last years incident? If so, no big deal imo.

Garafolo says it is a separate incident.

Well than he is in some trouble. Don’t want to be fucking up at a loaded position.

I mean, this is kind of a trend though, right? Seems like he's been in hot water about as frequently as Chris Henry or Pacman Jones used to be.
Chad Thomas immoblized following an injury today.

Hopefully it's just a stinger.
Sounds like Thomas is ok. Had movement in his extremities.
Hey BR!
Some notes from the Browns defense yesterday that I didn’t share on here: Colts receivers and offense mostly had their way with them but they had a few standouts. Joe Schobert is incredible, damn good player. Genard Avery was unblockable. Myles Garrett is even better in person.

"You've got to believe in it and take it one week at a time. Because I wouldn't say that everybody wants to beat us," he said. "I think in the media and everything that comes with the hype around our team right now, people want to see us lose, just because the hype is so real. But we've got to go out there and take it one week at a time. We're trying to win every week."
I was surprised Baker said this the other day. IMO, I never picked up on the desire to see the Browns lose. I think a lot of people are adopting them as their second favorite team. I'd rather see them deep in the AFC playoffs as opposed to the fucking Patriots, Steelers, Chiefs, or Ravens. But I guess that isn't saying much.

No...Baker is a very polarizing figure. People either love him or really hate him and want to see him, and this team, crash and burn. The Browns have gotten a TON of hype for a team that's really done nothing but lose since 1999. I think that's why a lot of people are pissed that they are getting all of this media darling love. They won't sneak up on anyone this year, like they did last. Teams will be gunning for them.

lol--you obviously don't know my SIL
Getting a bit concerned with this right guard situation. Kush is a journeyman, Kalis (also journeyman) has a concussion, Corbett looks like a "swing and a miss" (see Chad Thomas also) by Dorsey and they are now trying rookie Drew Forbes and some other guy at the position. I like the addition of Vernon but Zeitler would look pretty damn good there right now.
Question becomes knowing what we know....who would you rather have on the roster?
Jabril and Kevin
Or
Olivier
Are you f#cking kidding me? Josh Gordon touches weed while in Cleveland and gets 10 game suspensions. He violates the policy for the 50th time in New England and he gets reinstated? WTF?

I had honestly forgotten what was going on with him. It’s hard to keep track if he’s playing or suspended anymore. I wonder at what point this season he violates something again.

I really don't GAF about Gordon but what pisses me off is that, when the Browns could've used him, Goodell repeatedly dragged his feet on reinstatement, giving him extended suspensions (I know, CBA rules), and he violates the policy again, which should probably be some sort of lifetime ban, and Goodell says "you're good to go" now that he plays in NE? Looks like preferential treatment to me.
