Well, that and the worst WR corps in NFL history 2 yrs running that improved by adding a rookie.....[snark]

It's not the 'pass first' concept that bothers me about this offense.It's the pass only 4-7 yards only approach that I find disturbing.

Which is featured in Shurmur 101.

I get that it's 'featured'. It's 'featured' in the WCO period. But you absolutely have to look downfield every once in a while so maybe safeties and DC's have to respect the possibility.
Not once yesterday.
And I don't know if that's Shurmur or McCoy because honestly, I didn't see any deep routes being run.

1. when you have needs on the entire D, hard to say it's arrogance when you have selected a CB, S, DT, and DE. McClain was the only viable LB option in 2010. Even without the trade down last April, Von Miller was already off the board. It is nice to see you jumped off the Casey Matthews band wagon as soon as he was benched and replaced by Brian Rolle![]()
2. Colt McCoy is probably not the answer, but Locker had accuracy issues in college. That rarely, if ever, translates well to the NFL.
3. Scott Fujita resents the fact that you called Gocong the worst LB. Scott wants that title for himself.
4. Shocked that you have not started pimping RGIII. 'Cause if you don't, I just might.
5. When are peeps going to understand that Shurmur is pass first? He does not emphasize the run - it is not the identity of this team.

That said, I'm not focusing on QB or the draft right now. It's a futile discussion as we aren't going the QB route this year unless #12 shits the bed and even then with the "talent" or the lack thereof may not allow for an actual evaluation of Colt.

I admit to a bias about certain conferences and the QB's they produce , but I should have learned my lesson discounting Josh Freemans potential .
Would you take him over LUCK NEWTON BARLEY or RUSSELL right now , because I'm not sure I would for the two later guys ,and taint noway he's in the same class as Newton or Luck and thats all I'm saying .
We blew that arrogantly bypassing on Newton , because we're running third and losin fast in the suck for Luck sweepstakes.

You can't bypass what wasn't available in the first place.
Look, you were right on Scam, no question. Just the Browns were really never in the running for him.
I'm just going to see how this turns out, if Colt hangs himself with the rope thats been given to him, so be it. The way I see it, if there's that true franchise guy (could be 3 next year) out there that can be had, the Browns have a decent amount of picks to trade away to go get him.
Fuck, at this point, If the Browns finish say 5-11, I'd be willing to give up the 2 1sts this year, and a 2nd next year for Luck.

I live in Charlotte and from everything I've heard the Panthers were in love with him after his pro day and had every intention of inserting him in as their franchise QB. They never seriously considered Dareus or whomever within the last month or two prior to the draft.
We get it, you want credit for pointing out he was a total stud...but there is no evidence the Browns could have made moved up to get him so let's calm down with all that talk. Congrats on sticking to your guys throughout the draft buildup in stating Cam's ability and potential to be franchise QB. But c'mon man, move on from bashing the FO for a move they more than likely never even had a shot at making.
Charlotte is in full on Cam Fever though...even as the losses pile up. He has made Panthers football slightly watchable, which is more than I can say for the Browns right now.

The one who's listed at 5'11" tall (and we know colleges never exaggerate that stuff)? The one who threw 14 picks and was sacked 39 times as a redshirt junior while completing 58% of his passes? The one who's been putting up big numbers this year against UNLV, Oregon State, Northern Illinois, and South Dakotah? That Russell Wilson?
By the way, don't we already have a black 5'11" quarterback? Hey if we cut Colt, draft this guy, and trade for your man crush Troy Smith we can have three of them.
