    I said Derek Carr, they drafted JFF.

    I said Kevin Hogan should be the guy over Kizer… was I wrong?

    I said Baker Mayfield. Even during the season I said that should Hogan start, Mayfield may well be better than him and was all for drafting Baker.

    I said Saquon, he was rookie of the year, but I digress.

     

     

     

    Now, now PO, let's put the brakes on a little here. You wanted to take Saquon with our #1 pick last year. Had that been done, we wouldn't have Baker now. Fact: Baker went #1 & Saquon #2, so I agree with Tex, you can't say you won with both. Besides, we got the better of that choice.

    If I was a 300lb lineman for the Chiefs I’d keep my head down and not comment on any of this until the very second Hill walked back into the facility. And then I would throw him down, sit on him and punch his head into the ground until it left an impression on the concrete  

    There are no names I can call Hill to justify how bad a person he is, my heart breaks for his kid 

     

    IF Hill even plays again in the NFL, I'm betting he'll get some hits That'll rattle his world. It's called Karma. Too many players & teammates in this league who love their children.

    Don't know about permanent, but Peterson was suspended for essentially a season just using a belt on a kid. Hitting a kid so hard you bust his arm? Way worse. Done for this year at least.

    I should have made myself more clear. Injuring a child should mean no more NFL. The part I highlighted a year is not enough for that. He should be done.

    I wasn't thinking that it should take the whole season (but there IS a lot of 'new'...coaches, playbooks, players, etc.....and the modern practice rules negotiated by the players union limits how much practicing you can do -  -  this is where teams with continuity have an advantage).   Still though, I'm hoping that by the 4th or 5th game Baker and his receivers, old & new, will be in sync.  The OL will also have to play well together...which is a concern.

    Yep. We DO have outstanding Coordinators & position Coaches, especially Campen on the OL & that will help a lot. My biggest concern is at LB. Also, that early Bye Week may actually help to give us a little time to work on little "bugs" that may pop up. I'm hoping that we should be in pretty good shape by the Bye Week (if not before).

    It also helps having players that fit what Dorsey wants, smart & passionate.....I'll call 'em "WII" players...Winners who are Intelligent & Intense.

    Not me. 

    I knew we were gonna suck after the 10-6 season.  I told people,  "We don't have a QB!   Derick Anderson sucks!  He can throw it 70 yards but he can't complete a 5 yard crossing pattern on 3rd down."

    THIS time we HAVE a QB.  (and much more)  THIS time it's a totally different feeling.......for ME anyway.   THIS  time I'm telling people, "Yup, we're good on paper.  We just gotta make sure that those pieces of paper do it on the actual football field."  

    Right on the money! 2007 was an absolute FLUKE! I could never understand the DA hype....Strong arm, NO touch.

    We now have a REAL QB and surrounding talent. What needs to happen now is for all this talent to gel as a UNIT. To be really great on field, these players need to learn what the tendencies, strengths, & weaknesses are of those players around them, then work together to mesh & achieve goals. I think that will happen, but it will take time & how much time is the question....games? weeks? a season? longer? Who knows? Stay tuned folks as it's gonna be fun watching this Team grow.

  6. Thanks Steve. I believe the "poor tackling" is largely a coaching issue. This hard, body block tackling may have resulted in more turnovers, but also (IMO) a LOT of missed tackles, longer gains, & extended drives against us. I would rather see solid tackling that results in more "3 & outs".

    The talent is there. I am anxious to see what different utilization of that talent brings plus I want another solid LB.

    It should be noted, that I think, OBJ will be the Browns' Tyreek Hill, courtesy of Dorsey.

    and, Mr. Canton Mike actually has been bringing up OBJ trade to the Browns to me for months. It got worse this off-season.

    I kept thinking "oh, lol, here we go again..."

    When he called and told me, I figured he was just being a goof.

    Nope. They really DID make the trade?

    Dammit. Now Canton Mike is going to be a pain. Yes, I was freaking wrong.

    dammit.

    lol

    btw, just what was wrong with Perriman that he wanted to go elsewhere?

    Thanks Cal. As you recall, right after OBJ signed with the Giants last year, I said he would be a Brown in 2019. Now I still want Higgins too.

    We're taking Thursday night of the draft off.   

    So now we're set at WR.   A big need is done.

    Onward and upward.

    I predicted LAST spring that OBJ would be a Brown in 2019, but I failed to think of the effect on my Draft Party!  LOL

    The party has been all 3 rounds, now down to 2 unless Dorsey pulls yet ANOTHER rabbit outta the hat!!.....YAHOO!!!!

    Both City BBQ and Mission BBQ in Akron and Canton respectively are great even if they are chains. I thought you meant Royal Oak Michigan there for a minute.

    WSS

    As a Vietnam Vet, I have NEVER been treated better & with more respect than at Mission BBQ in Canton. Chain or not, this place Really makes Vets, Safety Forces & First Responders feel special & the food is excellent too. At noon daily, they play The Star Spangled Banner & ALL stand. All food made fresh on premises daily & they do not have a freezer or microwave.

    I have a real soft spot for Mission BBQ.

  10. I can't stand Drew Rosenhaus & fear we may lose Perriman as a result of DR's bullshit & another player putting blind faith in him. Only hope is Perriman has the good sense to say, "I'M staying in Cleveland!" Frankly, I'm amazed players align themselves with that A-hole. He did a hell of a job for Pryor, didn't he?
