Trading For Josh Gordon Wasn't a Great Idea in Retrospect

Don't be naive Josh is a baller. If we can get him and do what the Cincinnati has to Pacman oh boy.

Can't be a baller if you can't get on the field.

I was all for this guy because of our locker room. Problem is he just doesn't get it. Not enough babysitting in the world could help this kid. He needs rehab. This is really fugin sad

He wasnt supposed to be playing this year.

 

I mean I was looking forward to seeing him play even before all the news of trouble started coming out.  Now I just feel sorry for the dude for being such an idiot.  A guy that talented and he's throwing it all away.

Me too.  I'd absolutely trade someone we know is just camp fodder for him.  The Browns wouldn't go for it and neither would J.R., but sure, I'd do it.

 

You'd be giving up something for a guy who's quite possibly never going to see the field again.

 

He was already expected to be out for a year, and now an arrest?  And for DUI, mind you.

 

Expect him to be suspended indefinitely, which means in order to be reinstated he'll have to stay out of trouble.  You really wanna bet on a guy who got arrested for DUI with an appeal of a year's suspension still in process doing that?

 

I wouldn't give up a ham sandwich for the guy.

The guy is talented for sure but is either really, really dumb or has serious addiction problems... Or both...

 

Either way, he's pretty much untouchable now.

 

If it's addiction, then there's a chance he can get help, but that's gonna take a long time, and I don't expect anyone's likely to take a chance on him until he's demonstrated - for a length of time - that he can keep his nose clean.

 

Again, if ever.  And it's a shame to say that.

      Can we all admit it now?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      You’re right. I was thinking of the GB game with the silly reach for the goal line when he wasn’t close that turned into a goal line fumble. I do remember all the discussions in here about end of the game interceptions and bad passes, etc. but that wasn’t against the Chiefs. That said, still the best season by a QB since Cam. Best 4 game run was Darnold to start 2021, but best full season was Teddy. That makes me really sad.

      Agreed. I think they never seriously considered him an option even though he was/is miles better than Darnold.  I think the ego stuff was massively overplayed. He was played for the Browns, a disaster organization, and he accomplished more than they have in years. He came here to another diaster organization that happened to be worse than Cleveland and he didn't succeed. But, how could he? Frankly, who the fug could? I think our general fanbase really underestimates how terrible this organization truly is. It can nuke anyone.  poo, you see how Stroud is struggling with a damn good Texans team? Can you imagine how bad he would be here in our circumstances?? He can thank his lucky stars we made the choice we did.

      I think the vast majority of QBs only thrive or die based on their situations. But some are capable of making everyone else around them better in a way they redefine, or at least elevate, those situations. And some of the former group also just never will really have "it" when the moment matters. So far it feels like Bryce either needs the perfect situation or he just doesn't have "it". I suppose we'll get the season to see if that changes, but to call me skeptical is an understatement.
