At least we’re not the Browns

Howie cracked up and quickly corrected the old man.

”I think you mean sit him.  Not put him down”

Regardless, the Browns may be benching their $230 million guaranteed QB and that’s insane.

More than a few Browns fans would suggest that idea for Jim Haslam

The Browns have been to the playoffs more recently. 

That’s one reason I called it worse.  They made the playoffs last year. And are now 1-4 like us.  And talking about benching their QB.

The other is everything they gave up for Watson.  People calling the Bryce trade the worst in history, just look up the Wiki page for the Watson trade.  Holy crap.

Absolutely, and honestly Watson played a minimal role in them making the playoffs last year. We dodged a bullet on that, but we were ready, willing and eager to be the butt of that joke as well, until it moved to the 100% guarantee.

It wasn't for lack of effort. We tried very hard. We don't deserve any credit for losing the auction we were absolutely trying to win.

Sad part is we actually did end up hurting ourselves with all the restructuring of contracts so we could even make the offer. Then we spent all that money to still suck. It's like finding out the gas station is out of sushi so you buy one of those hot dogs that was put on the roller during spring break of 88'.

    • You would hope so. I’m confused why the sports world seems split on Bryce when he’s obviously not working out. 
    • So let’s do the reverse? Make everyone agree everything he does is a disaster? I also think the whole “gaslighting” is on the eye of the beholder. It went from he can’t avoid one single sack countered with he actually did that well Sunday (with data backing it) to a little breakdown of why he is so bad. People are going to have different opinions. I’m also not going to pretend this wasn’t happening Day one with this little QB. 
    • All this great stuff he has done, how often does he do it?  I have it at three or four games out of 14 where he was very good and then you get a drive here or a series there where there are some good things. Here is the gaslight part: everyone has put him on a curve with his first year the baseline, neglecting to understand how bad he was then. Even if he comes back twice as good, where does that really leave him? 25th ranked or thereabouts.     He had so far to go, and still does, it is a Major ‘settle’ to accept his play as worthy of giving him our future.  You want to settle when the Bucs have Mayfield, and the Saints have overtaken us at QB? We will be third in the division at QB. That is good enough for y’all?
