@Pchopz_ Made no moves or poor moves left and right and built the most flawed roster. Hinging his entire spot on LeBron is worth being fired when it should’ve happened years ago. Stands pat far too often and the results don’t dictate that.

[Joe @joejake16]

@Pchopz_ Truth be told, Koby has been a failure at his position for a while. Getting promoted was a terrible move. Instead of fixing the flawed roster, he double down every year.

@Clevta Probably never hits the incentives so it’s a little over 10 mil a year. That’s starter but low end starter money.

@jimcramer Going to be reporting new ship orders meaning more revenue down the pipeline as well as being online a few newer ships this year. Love the stock!

@RuiterWrongFAN While the rule served a purpose initially, I think it’s no longer a needed thing. It’s now a hassle for teams

Coordinators are rarely promoted to replace their bosses in the NFL.

When it does happen it typically isn’t successful and more often than not is being done by Jerry Jones.

@Pchopz_ I have so many people saying he’s awful and you can get a guy like him undrafted, if the browns didn’t take him he’d go in the second round. I’m at a loss for words for some people stupidity

@JeremyinAkron I get him wanting to continue to prove it to himself but man he’s rough to see. The magic is gone

Former 4th round pick here..
Former Journeyman backup here..

I think there is a massive misunderstanding about how an NFL practice is structured.

The only time mid round pick rookies and backups get meaningful reps is in training camp, and they are never with the ones unless you are competing or starting that next preseason game.

Regular season practices have 10-12 plays per period.. that’s team run, team pass, team blitz pickup, and some teams still do a 7v7 period…
But for the most part that’s are 30-40 live full speed reps of the actual gameplan practiced on Wed, Thursday and Friday in the NFL.. these all go to the starting QB.. he’s the one that has to be to get ready. And if healthy he gets to make that call.

These team periods alternate between O and D with backups and PS players and even some guys that will play significant roles on Sunday, serving as scout team “look” squads for those periods.

This is where we backups get our reps.
You have to try and translate what the scout team play is into your offense and play it accordingly.
Honestly this is a lot of times more beneficial to you as a QB because you’re getting reps against a full defense of starters at full speed, the minus being that it’s not necessarily your offensive plays your running.

Folks don’t understand, it’s incredibly difficult, probably the hardest job in all of sports!!! to be a backup QB, for this very reason. Because of limited to no reps and same expectations..
And that is you must come in and perform at the same level as the guy you replaced for your teammates, coaches and your own career security.

You come in and struggle an you’re evaluated of that performance, right or wrong, the league makes it’s judgements about you, that’s why it’s so hard for backups to have long careers that weren’t at one point full time starters (nod to guys like myself & my buddies @ChaseDaniel and @danorlovsky7 )

Yes it stinks that that’s the situation SS came into. I’ve been there, LITERALLY, with the Browns, as a rookie, as a mid round pick. So have many other rookies.. you play, you learn and grow and get better.. or you don’t.

Absolutely reps help, Absolutely he’ll be better with a full week of prep.

But those are the hands as backups we’re dealt, and in those moments and we have to make the most of them.

SS will be better with reps for sure. But if DG remains the guy the facts of life in an NFL practice still remains for us backups..

[Joe @joejake16]

@JeremyinAkron Do you have to see if any potential names have been used? I’d have to assume that one would be. But it could also be like a naming business in Ohio, can be bad in other states but if it’s open here it’s ok lol

[Joe @joejake16]

@RuiterWrongFAN It’s not great by any stretch. But everyone has to know ticket prices will increase with a new stadium. My guess is there’s some happy medium found. PSLs help recoup some money fast but it’s a bad look. I don’t know how many teams actively do it but I’m guessing most.

[Joe @joejake16]

@AllbrightNFL If we are gonna get someone who dresses like Shakira, just bring her back! She’s literally the best option. Or go back to rock. But not the old tired acts, someone current or relevant. Hasn’t been a good one since Gaga. Hell, trot out creed and redo the cowboys halftime show lol

@Pchopz_

[Clevta @Clevta]

The reactions to last night are totally misguided imo. The anger should be over the Browns continued inability to find WRs who can separate and catch the ball as well as younger OL not the actual trading of a 40 yo QB on a rebuilding team that was the single worst QB in the NFL over the first month of the season. Being angry about the actual trade with these specific tm situations doesnt make much sense to me

[Joe @joejake16]

@KevinPaulRosser I mean Americans can say whatever they feel and deal with the repercussions. Individuals from elsewhere cannot opening cheer American citizens deaths, actually assassinations to be precise. Career criminal deaths are different than open killings.

[Joe @joejake16]

@RuiterWrongFAN Will anyone check in on Chris Ronayn during this? I’m sure he still thinks it’s a boondoggle lmao

[Iain D. Wright @iain19]

Aka .. we play those assholes twice in the next 5 weeks .. we were banking on Jake Browning.

For those that don’t know - Tomlin only cares about his team. You can read all the tea leaves you want but that comment is directed at his team’s interests.

[Joe @joejake16]

@RuiterWrongFAN And he got a free trip to London! All things considered, he did what he was asked to do. Hard seeing his athleticism (what little he did have) be completely gone this time around.
