I said vCash. Try reading again.

LOL.

Ok. Haha.

Ok. I will do $250 Vcash straight up if you give me until 2023

Dec 2022.

Dec 2022.

That is 2 years and doesn’t even give me feee agency following year 2.

He can still be exactly the same guy and be on a roster in December 2022.

it sounds like the Steelers MIGHT rest Rothlisberger for the finale.

If they do rest him--- Mason Rudolph would start

A game at Cleveland Browns Stadium, against the Steelers, with Mason Rudolph starting and Myles Garrett.

my mind is just blown right now with that possibility. lol

we could see anything happen.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Nope.

I said more likely to be out of the league than start another game.

I also said he will be on somebody’s roster next year.

If you going to quote me, get it right.

i mean- if he is on a roster he can start a game

most team carry a 3rd QB on the practice squad

all it takes would be an injury if he is on a team. I just think thats a dumb thing to say. If he is on a team he is there to start a game. No one carries a QB that they dont imagine starting for the team at some point. Injuries happen all over the league all the time.

That would be crazy, just hope the Browns are healthy.

i heard on the radio on the way home that none of the guys tested positive for Covid yet that were on the watch list.

I also heard they expect Teller to practice on Wednesday.


I mean....getting Wills, Teller, Landry, Higgins, Peoples Jones, and Harrison back miiiiight make the Browns a slightly better team than they were on Sunday. lol.

the line screwed us....2 backups backups.

Which is why I am not betting on it.

I took a lot of heat for saying Haskins had no chance to be a starting QB in the NFL and he is cut before the end of his second season.

That is literally unprecedented.

But I don’t think he starts another game.

He won’t be 2nd string and most 3rd stringers never see game action.

Rosen is right there with him

I wonder what it comes down to for them. Thinking if they can be the 2 seed they'd play for it but not sure how we want the game to go tonight for there to be more of a possibility they can get the 2.

only reason you got any heat or pushback from me is making this out to be some crazy predicition by your guru......you will be right nearly every time if you say a guy who is the 3rd QB selected in the draft and in the midteens or later will be a bust. And looks like attitude was the reason he was let go so early which your guru did not factor in.

and he went #10.

That attitude will help him be successful in his new real estate career.

 

[trojanfan12]

Rosen is right there with him

Is he even still in the league?

right.

I think the vast majority of Ohio State fans thought Haskins was wildly over-drafted. I know I did. The Browns have been as QB hungry as any team over the last 15 years + and i never thought once watching Haskins on Saturday that he was going to be some long term starter in the league.

As soon as the Redskins drafted him i thought they would be looking for a new guy soon enough.

In this situation the fact that a new management team took over, means he was on a short leash and he screwed up.

Browns fans know better than anyone that when a new regime comes in they just are not attached to the previous regimes guys.

Combine Haskins being very ordinary, his stupid off the field mistakes, and a new regime and its really not that surprising.

not only that- but WAshington is also playing for a playoff spot (sadly enough)....if this team was down and out and had 3 wins maybe it doesnt happen. They have a playoff caliber defense.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Is he even still in the league?

he was on the Tampa Bay practice squad until all the injuries in San Francisco happened- the 49'ers just grabbed him from the Bucs.

What a waste of talent that guy is. Thought he'd be good. Watched a few of his games at UCLA and that dude was making Sunday throws on Saturday.

 

[trojanfan12]

Attitude wasn't the reason he was released. He was released because he sucks. If he didn't suck, they'd put up with his attitude.

 

[dtgold88]

Exactly...obviously at time of that draft we were finally not in QB market but there was never a time I'd have wanted the Browns to take any of the QBs not named Burrow in that draft if we were. For sure not Haskins. struck me as getting by on his strong arm AND having elite talent surrounding him.

will say you are right about regime changes but I LOVE our new FO don't seem to care about these things and ego does not get in the way of making informed decisions. If it did, they'd have replaced Teller and they thought maybe real coaches could help him succeed.
