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

    • LOL! We have ourselves a funny one over here.  
    • That’s why I love Jake and always will.  He was so fuging gritty and definitely was a gunslinger.  Like a not-quite-poor-man’s Brett Favre.  Like an economy version lol.  He was damn good.  Yeah, he’d throw a pick here or there, but more often than not, I trusted Jake.  He’d make some throws that really made you think, “damn, he’s even better than I thought.”  I loved that he loved to gamble, but more importantly, he gave his guys a fuging chance to make a play.  When people have been criticizing Tet for drops, it pisses me off, because they say it like these are some gimmes that he’s dropping.  but, at about 6’5”, if your whole body is moving one way and you have to stop or slow down to come back to a ball thrown behind you, or low, that poo is not easy.  Bryce isn’t really giving him a chance, and I can see why he’s dropping them.  Versus if you look at this highlight reel of Moose: at about halfway through is when Jake stepped in.  The passes he was throwing are CRAZY.  There’s multiple passes in there where he is throwing across his body while running the opposite way - and he still had the strength to get it on target.  Then there’s the throws where he lasers it in a spot only the receiver could get it - seam routes, out routes, over the top. The longer you watch, the more obvious it is that so many of these (what should be basic) throws are completely absent from our offense with Bryce.  There was a play today where he started to scramble, kept looking, looking, looking, then just threw it into the ground near the receiver.  Let them make a fuging play.  His best pass of the day?  The long one to Tet?  If you re-watch it. About 10-15 yards further downfield, XL smoked his man on a post route.  You get maybe 3 chances at that a game usually, and when you don’t even attempt it when it’s there?  That poo is so demoralizing.  I can’t wait for Bryce’s time here to be fuging over.  If they cut him tomorrow I would feel free.  I would feel like I just won the fuging powerball.  If they signed Heineke, Perkins, White, PJ Walker, or Hooker to start the rest of the year, I would be fuging ecstatic like we just trotted Cam out for the first time.  That how fuging life-sucking Bryce is as the QB.
    • Aren't they about the same size too? Why TF are teams all of sudden drafting these small ass QBs that have an EXTREMELY low hit rate at an already extremely low hit rate position?
