T.O. in Cleveland?...

Browns coach Eric Mangini indicated earlier in the week that the team would consider adding a veteran receiver if the fit is right.

Terrell Owens is easily the best receiver available, and the Browns are perhaps in worse shape at the position than any team in the league. Josh Cribbs, one of the team's captains, is pushing for T.O. to land in Cleveland. Brian Robiskie and Chansi Stuckey showed nothing last season that should have the team concerned about blocking their path to a starting job.

lol Can you imagine him with Delhomme? It would get very ugly very quick.

In fairness, Jake has the right personality to handle a guy like Owens, and he would throw to him a lot.

That said, it's not a choice I'd make.

Even if you were Cleveland? Cleveland? I believe that Mohamed Massaquoi will turn out to be pretty effective in the long run, but in the short term the Browns' passing game may easily turn out to be the worst in the league without a veteran on the wings.

T.O. to the Browns is disaster. It's not only a sign of how low T.O. has fallen, but a total powder keg. T.O. isn't in the situation to make trouble, if he does he knows he risks being cut and might not find a new home, but we all saw how bad Delhomme could be in the last two seasons with a much better offense. It would end both of their careers.

Then again, with no receiving targets in Cleveland and Delhomme's tendency to lock on, maybe it's a match made in heaven.

I seem to be in the minority again (imagine that) but I don't think that TO would be a bad move at all. Frankly he was on his best behavior in Buffalo and really hasn't been that big of a distraction since he left the circus in Dallas. With Jake as the quarterback and Holmgren in charge, it could actually work out very well. In order to fill some seats and get them back on track in a tough division, I would definitely try and get him if I could work out the money. He definitely is still productive.

You know, it makes all the sense in the world for them to bring in Moose.

Obviously he and Delhomme have great chemistry, but Moose is the kind of guy that can play well as a third receiver and really teach the young guys some things. Like Delhomme, he would be worth bringing in just to have another leader in a lockerroom in desperate need of one.

It's the Browns. I don't think TO could make it any worse. Matter of fact he would be an improvement on the receiving core. Jake would definitely feed him the ball whether he is double teamed or not. If Jake has a little bit left in the tank it could actually work out for them.

I think you misread but yes, they would benefit from bringing in Moose

    • Decided last minute to to take family to game.  Cheap tickets sec 134 (which is kindof sad in of itself) made the 10 hour roundtrip and glad as hell I did.   - Defense played out of their mind.  Mike Jack smithwade looking at you -Penix is fuging terrible, not worried about him at all - Falcons, wtf were you doing, running when you should be passing and vice versa.  Why the fug didnt you run the ball on us?  - Canales, I get you are green but damn man tighten up your time management  - We won so not going to bag on Bryce too much but yeah man to argue he isnt limited is lol funny - We finally have a kicker and that feels kindof good all things considered - someone earlier mentioned tepper and we didnt see him in the box the entire game, not sure what thats about -Chubba, Sanders and Tet took some absolute monster shots and popped back up, not sure how they do it because it sounds horrific.  Chubba took one right in front of us and he got up laughing.  wow  
    • My exact list for the shout outs in the same order (though I admittedly had the rookie edges @ #4 and Fitz @ #1)
    • Yesterday was also the first time we saw all three phases of this team play complimentary football during not just Canales' tenure but Young's as well. While he didn't have to light it up through the air, he did spread the ball around to nine different players. TMac's drops hurt, but the team was able to rally still thanks to the defense finally getting to play with a lead. Plus, TMac still had his positive moments like the catch and run as well as the poster-shot he created by climbing the ladder. I hope that this lit a fire under XL. With Tremayne's emergence and Coker coming back from IR in the next 1 - 3 weeks there is going to be less patience with his issues. Let's not forget though the most important thing to watch for: how XL responds to the adversity. Nobody is going to have a perfect career, but how they handle the down lows will be what gives them a chance to get back to experiencing the highs again.
