Browns with 5 pro-bowlers and a bunch of alternates

Myles Garrett
Denzel Ward
Joel Bitonio
Wyatt Teller
Nick Chubb

pretty nice core.....Bitonio is maybe the best guard in football. Garrett one of the best defensive players in football. Ward a top corner who really has had a great year. Teller makes up one half of the best guard tandem in the league. Chubb is a stud.

Tretter and Wills are alternates with Clowney (and others). 4 of the Browns 5 starting lineman are either pro bowlers or alternates. Sucks they were on the field together such a limited amount of time.

sucks what happened to the Browns this year- but seems after that interception against the Chiefs where Baker tore his labrum it was just not their year.

sometimes you gotta take 2 steps forward and 1 step back. ITs a young talented roster with cap room. They will be back.

Guess we'll see, but your predictions in the past have left a tad to be desired...:heh:

KD crossed the line going outta his way to criticize that kid. I feel sorry for him.

Just another example of the glaring self esteem issues he deals with on a daily basis.

And I hope he gets called out for his insane immaturity.
Dude, thank you.

You're at bare minimum a top 5 NBA player today and have millions of dollars.

Yet you get so butt hurt when people criticize you that you even create a burner account on Twitter to defend yourself.

It's mindboggling anyone would defend what KD did to that kid. Yet that's happened.

Bks is right, KD does have the right to criticize. But.........people now have the right to criticize KD's approach to this situation. KD's approach is shit.

Wait a minute here. Are you saying a fella that said the Cavs will turn things around before the Heat, that LeBron's legacy is ruined, that the moment LeBron left the Cavs for a 2nd time that he was past his prime, that Riley doesn't know what he's doing and that Steph's the most overrated league MVP of all time could possibly be wrong? I don't believe it!

lol

I'll be the first one to say placing an asterisk on any title (especially when all teams have to undergo the same obstacles like the 2020 season for the NBA as example) is bullshit.

This is the very exception to that rule. This would be the the most ginormous asterisk of all-time.

Sure KD has a right to say that stuff. But he was in the wrong for doing it in the first place.

That's how KD makes himself feel better about himself, to attack a kid on social media?

Just another really bad look for him.

It was completely outta line.

Can't argue with you there. He has a right to the decisions that he makes. He's just going to get roasted to oblivion, like this for example.

Which will continue the perpetual cycle of his esteem issues.

He even said last night that all little kids need to grow up and stop believing in Santa. And he called Rudolph a drunk because of his red nose.

Yeah, and the "he was criticizing the move, not the kid" stuff doesn't fly. The kid made the move, so he's still getting the criticism. I might have a different view if KD said something constructive.

@tlance thoughts on this move as a coach? If someone just randomly sent you this move being performed in a real game, what would you think?


As a coach, I would simply point out that it resulted in a missed shot (and not a good shot opportunity either). It's putting self ahead of team.

Okay who exactly? Just reading some of the other comments didn't really see anyone saying KD wasn't outta line. Well other than you.
KD didn't put it on twitter, he responded to it. The blame falls on the OP.

The changes were made to clearing protocol I believe, not the initial testing? Not sure though.

I'd rather see Book start personally, at least find out what he's got. More interesting for sure; Hill is a known entity and a gimmick player IMO.

It's really bizarre he went outta his way to say that stuff about that kid publicly. Yet he has nothing to say about his flat Earther teammate that put himself ahead of the entire Nets organization by missing over a 1/4 of the season.

So that makes what he said okay? Like I said yesterday I wonder how KD would react if he had a teenage son that got torn apart by a current NBAer on social media?
