Dolfan in NYC 16,158 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 The bigger news from that - and it isn't good Nantz and Simms will call the Thursday game Ugh. And I thought I was in a bad mood already. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan 5,907 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Nice, the Lions are most likely going to hire Jim Bob Cooter as QB Coach, so Brian gets to have fun with that name for awhile. Link to post Share on other sites
Josh Mann 2,075 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 The Colts hired Chud as a Special Assistant. Most likely, he'll end up being Donkey to Andrew Luck's Shrek. Link to post Share on other sites

RIPPA 32,779 Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 I moved the Michael Sam stuff to the NFL Draft thread since most of the stuff now is "WILL HIS DRAFT STATUS BE AFFECTED?!?!?!?!?!" Plus he technically isn't in the league yet. Meanwhile - members of Congress are encouraging Roger Goodell to make the Redskins to change their name. Yeah... that will turn out well.

Joe Lucia 355 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 What a dumpster fire. They hire Chud, draft Weeden, trade Richardson, fire Chud, then gut the whole front office. So, all the Browns have to show for the last year is...Brandon Weeden. Link to post Share on other sites
Josh Mann 2,075 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Ironically, about a year ago the Browns pleaded for patience. Which is clearly a trait Jimmy Haslam does not have. Link to post Share on other sites
RIPPA 32,779 Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 Even better is that apparently Farmer wasn't even a part of the hiring process of Mike Pettine So yup - they already have a GM who inherited a coach... and neither has even started yet Link to post Share on other sites

So, all the Browns have to show for the last year is...Brandon Weeden. I'm not disagreeing with the sentiment, but Weeden was drafted with Richardson two years ago. Last year they drafted Barkevious Mingo. This whole situation is a disaster. They won't improve unless Haslem has to sell. Link to post Share on other sites

Josh Mann 2,075 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Would anyone put it past Peyton to buddy up to an owner and intentionally give bad advice that would nuke a franchise further? I wouldn't. Link to post Share on other sites
EVA 5,021 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Did Mingo have a decent season? I just remember him being the recipient of one of my favorite "anonymous scout" pre-Draft burn notices last year, when the guy said Mingo "led the nation in high-fives and chest bumps," the implication being he always the first guy on the scene after somebody else made the play.

Josh Mann 2,075 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 42 solo tackles, 5 sacks, and inspired 2 Key & Peele sketches. So not bad for a rookie season. Link to post Share on other sites
JRGoldman 2,093 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Keep in mind too that he missed all of training camp, preseason and the first two games with a punctured lung. He certainly hit a wall at some point and would disappear for long stretches but he wasn't a disaster by any means. The defense actually wasn't all that terrible. I think with another linebacker that can drop back in to coverage they will be a very solid unit moving forward. Link to post Share on other sites
