Browns vs Titans Preview

Well the Tennessee Titans visit Cleveland at 7:30 tonight for what should be another dismal QB show by the Browns.

As of 9:20 am there is still no word on who is starting at QB, Anderson on Quinn. I once embraced the idea of giving both of these guys as many reps in the preseason games as possible, but since neither has pulled ahead in the QB battle, just give the helm to Quinn and lets move on already. There is two weeks until these games start counting, so lets give the starter some additional reps with the first team already!

Mary Kay-Cabot of the Plain Dealer seems to feel that this whole QB battle is a smoke screen to not divulge too much game film of either QB to Minnesota for our regular season opener. If that is the case, Man-Genius is Man-Tarded. If he thinks this will give us a better shot against the Vikings on Sept 13 he is surely a resident of Wonderland (or EVIL).

As many of us know, the third preseason game is where the majority of the first-teamers will play into the third quarter. Some questions that may have some light shed on them may be:

Can DA move the ball against better teams and not just the scrubs?

Will yearly August MVP Jerome Harrison (undisclosed injury) be backing up Jamal Lewis, or will James Davis see more action?

Will we even be able to run the ball tonight?

Will we see more of struggling C Alex Mack with the first team offense?

Will Shaun Rogers see the field tonight (undisclosed injury)?

Will our future WR depth chart be shown this evening? So far it looks like Edwards, Furrey, Cribbs. But rookie Mohammad Massaquoi has had a strong training camp.

All we can really hope for still is a competitive game. The Titans only lost 3 games last season, not 16 like the Lions did on '08. The talent level is obviously much higher down south than it is in the motor city.

Shaun Rodgers and Some Insight on the Draft

A customer of mine told me once one of the greatest words to live by some years ago. “Never let your meat loaf.” Back when I heard this I only thought of it in a sexual context. But after hearing of the release of DT Shaun Rodgers this past week I was able to apply this great piece of advice from a half senile old man in a different way. The 10 year veteran had played only sparingly over the past two seasons. He ended the 2009 season on the I.R. (as so many others did as well). This past season sometime during training camp, Rodgers became gimpy and turned into the Lance Armstrong of stationary bikes. During the regular season Mr. Rodgers was lucky to play 20 snaps a game. 2009 stats: 11 games played, 11 game starts, 36 tackles (9 assisted) 2 sacks. 2010 stats: 15 games played, 1 game start, 17 tackles (3 assisted) 2 sacks. Shaun's salary in 2010 was $6.9 million, his base for 2011 was 5.5 million. Really didn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out. With

2018 NFL Draft Cleveland Browns Preview

***UPDATE #2*** Per RotoWorld and Jordan Raanan of ESPN: Rumor has it that the NY Giants are only willing to spend the 2nd overall pick in April's draft for a QB if it were going to be Sam Darnold. Read More Browns also made another move in for the secondary by signing CB EJ Gaines. Read More. **UPDATE** As many of you have probably already scene. The NY Giants traded DE Jason Pierre-Paul to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday. Really, three things could happen here. Giants draft a QB or Barkely. They could still trade out with Buffalo or another sneaker team that no one is aware of yet. Finally, and what seems to now make the most sense, they draft DE Bradley Chubb in place of JPP's vacancy. Who will be the one? Just weeks away from the 2018 NFL Draft and our beloved Cleveland Browns find themselves again picking high in Round 1. At this point, with the New York Jets trading up to the #3 spot it looks like this draft could be shaking up to have three
