Cleveland Browns: Collecting Building Blocks - Page 9 - Single-Team Season Threads -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

DA is sucking the life out of me. He is sooooo bad. I am not sure he makes my top 50 QBs in the league. The pass before the 54 yard FG try says it all. Edwards ran a good route and was wide open for about a 15-20 yard gain. The pass was not even close. Sure, Edwards may drop it half the time, but at least give him a chance. A completion there gives them a shorter FG with a chance to win the game right there.

I would love to see a stat on how many throws DA has batted at the los compared to the league average.

What have the coaches seen in game film this year to lead them to want to continue to play DA?

fyi:

7 times the browns threw an incomplete pass on first down (at least, after the first drive of the fourth quarter) against the skins. 7 times they followed it up with a running play.

I know how much you guys hate DA so I'm going to just say Sorry to you now. I know for a fact that DA will look like the next coming of Joe Montana in this upcoming game against a pathetic pass defense and I know it will lead to at least 2 or more weeks of DA being the starter.

From everyone that is a Jags fan, we are sorry.

What's so infuriating is that DA has incredible talent at every single offensive position. He sucks so ****ing bad.

DID THEY REALLY JUST SUSPEND WINSLOW FOR HIS 'COMMENTS'????

OMG.

this mother****er got staph for the second time in his career, and there have been 5 ****ING PEOPLE THAT GOT STAPH IN BEREA AND HE'S NOT ALLOWED TO CALL THAT **** OUT????!?!?!

the browns just seriously suspended winslow for calling a spade a spade.

yesterday, mike trivisanno said that randy lerner had a staph infection too, and i'm all like 'wtf???', and he goes, 'yeah, his whole front office staff is infected by the idiot syndrome'...

lol...

he was second in the league in dropped passes last year. it's gotten a lot worse this season though. as bad as anderson has been, a lot of the blame has to fall on braylon. i counted five dropped passes in the redskins game. that is ridiculous.

This Winslow thing is unreal.

Guy busts his ass for you every game, including playing hurt a ton. Says "WTF, we've had 6 guys get a staph infection?" Gets suspended.

**** you Savage, **** you Romeo, **** DA, **** this team, **** this franchise.

Seems like this is really gonna **** the Browns in free agency and team morale for awhile. As much as I like seeing Cleveland struggle, this is just ridiculous.

he had to put up with people saying he had an STD, and the team saying that they were keeping stuff confidential to 'protect kellen's interests', when in reality, they were trying to hide the fact that the facility in berea is ****ing INFECTED with something...

all the while, winslow is FORCED to keep his mouth shut about something that the cleanliness of the facility caused, while people are talking **** about him..

then, when he tells THE TRUTH, in a calm and decisive manner, he gets suspended...

honestly, one of the most ****ed up things i can remember hearing about in sports..

I wish I wasn't so deeply ingrained to be a Browns fan because this really makes me want to root for a different team.

Finally dumped Braylon in my fantasy league. Been nice knowing you, Browns thread. Maybe I'll catch you next year.

Still probably DA's second best game of the year. They're only 2 games back of Pittsburgh who has 3 tough matchups coming up. (@WAS, IND, SD) The sooner they get Quinn in there, the better off they'll be.

How surprising has the defense been this year? Since week 2 they've been very solid. Shaun Rogers was just a beast yesterday.

I'm shocked that Winslow was suspended for saying that, I assumed it was something else like what Plaxico did. WTF?

Well let's see, we have 4 of 5 upcoming at home. Pit has a tough schedule. if we are going to contend for the division we have to win these next 2 games and hope Pit drops at least 1.

I think this week is very winnable, then who knows what Broncos team will show up next Thursday.

But then again who knows what Browns team will show up either week....
