And OC. 

So new HC time? Because Canales is the OC. He's an Andy Reid style HC. It's his offense and he's the play caller and some good buddy of his gets a nice pay check and a title on his door to be a clipboard holder.

No reason to cut Dalton, TBH. There are no better options. #3.....I don't think we should even have a #3 QB. It's not a position important enough(hold on, I will explain). At the point we are past Dalton, it's all gone to poo anyway so just deal with whatever is available.

Dalton is injured

If you thought this was bad wait until preseason game 3 vs Steelers where Bryce and Dalton don’t play and Jack Plummer gets the full game 

We are going to get the breaks beat off us all 3 preseason games. Doesn’t bode well for the regular season at all.

What if the answer is that Tepper doesn't want to hurt Bryce's fee fees?

What’s with the obsession with adding to the QB room? 

Either BY steps up or we need a top 3 pick.

The scoreboard doesn't matter. But how your starters look and the overall level of preparedness does.

You don't have to get mad and just start switching up arguments to try to find something that will land.

My point from the beginning here was that you're not likely to find immediate help for your pass rush in the draft unless you're lucky enough to be drafting VERY high and have a potential generational type talent in the draft. That's it, that's all. Immediate impact pass rusher help in the draft is a long shot.

Lol...im switching up arguments when I'm just stating what you said early this week. Don't look to far into pre season right? Walker hasn't played a real game like any other rookie so we shouldn't be looking too much into things and hype. I mean.. If he was lighting it up right now it would be against second and third stringers correct? This is your logic you have already landed. Im just repeating it.

Fire everyone and sell the team to Jim Caldwell

No matter what happens I am willing to give Canales at least 3 years even if we are drafting top 5. 
Mostly because I am tired of switching coaches every few years.

HUGE 16 yard run

I agree (it was frustration/sarcasm). However, I think the Browns might cut an upgrade over Plummer....but your second point is one I agree with too.

I agree, I'm just saying I wouldn't be shocked if that was basically the reason.

Yeah. I didn't want to say it, but if your team is putting out this kind of effort, even in a preseason game, you need a coach on the sidelines chewing out someone and letting them know their careers are literally on the line here. If you are trying to make it on one of the worst teams in the NFL over the last five years and you can't show out, then you aren't going to get chances elsewhere.

Mr. Friendly-friendly might not be the answer here.

Damn Steve Smith calling for Plummer's head.  Love it.

[TD alt]

Smitty is right about the evaluation process. We need to see better, or the guys need to be gone.
