2012 Cleveland Browns thread: AKA Pat Shurmur Memorial thread

  • zach24oz
    Honestly, if Reid is fired, he would be the best fit because he could transition to the Browns with them already running a west coach offense, he can just bring his version with him, which would fit alright with the guys we have now, let Weeden work from the gun more rather then pushing him to be under center most of the game. As long as Reid/Banner can work together I think it'd be fine with me. Isn't Reid the reason why Banner left Philly?

    I would be worried about Reid not running the ball.

    Yes, Reid forced Banner out in a power struggle.

    Then that answers that question. Reid won't be coaching the Browns. If he got fired I think he would take a year off anyway. He has been going through a lot.

    He needs to go on a diet. He should take a yr off for that.

    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Pat Shurmur said he knew elements were going to be a factor before he got to the stadium; would've never predicted a 7-6 outcome


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur said he factored in the elements into critique of the game film; those that like run & D - "I hope you had a good Sunday"


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN "It wasn't pretty, it wasn't perfect but it's something that we can build on" - Pat Shurmur


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur - "there are no ugly victories"


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur said Weeden could make better throws/play better


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur said the reverse was there (ran it 2x this year but from diff formation) had they executed ball handling it would've been a big play


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur "Obviously record wise we're not where we want to be; I see a team that's battling, improving and are with me every step of the way"


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur said Phil Taylor & Ahtyba Rubin could play vs Ravens


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur said he was impressed w/ team giving up victory Monday & shows maturity and understanding that they have to improve


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur - "I'd like us to be more explosive running and passing and more efficient running and passing" & looking 4ward to D players back


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur on Alex Smith over Owen Marecic - wanted to get Alex back on the field & have defined role for him


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur said the football gods looked down on them yesterday w/ a few (Chargers) drops and other things


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur said Richardson didn't re-injure himself. w/ RB, if he's going & scores, you feed him; said run blocking was better as well


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur "I'm watching film as if it were sunny and 70; we left a lot out there just like they did"


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur no Haslam - that's a better ? for him; our convos have been good & encouraged him to learn everything about our operation


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur adds he's getting reacquainted w/ Joe Banner


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur said it's hard for coaches to look at trends; we look at days


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur on players saying no 2 victory Monday 'There's a level of maturity there. It shows me these guys understand the importance of work"


    Daryl Ruiter ‏ @ RuiterWrongFAN Shurmur on not giving Weeden pass on overthrow to Watson on would be TD - "You don't give me a pass so why should I give him one"

    No thanks on Reid...we wouldn't even know who Trent Richardson is with him calling the plays.

    Then again, Derpmer has Weeden go for 40 attemps most weeks so what the hells the difference

    Reid at least has a lot of pass plays designed for his RB. He is a good coach, his track record speaks for himself. With that being said, I would still take Gruden first.

    Corner turned?

    I like the fact that there's a "good chance" Rubin & Taylor will play. Now MoMass needs to sack up, pull his testicles out of his ass, and play.

    lol tells you all you need to know about Maeric.
  • Go4alOngbOmB
    I miss a REAL fullback! One who is hungry to just beat someone to death every time a running play is called!

    We need another blocker like Lawerence Vickers, who just LIVED to hit someone. HIM bashing holes open for Richardson would just be brutal!
  • Go4alOngbOmB
    Well someone LIKE him....not him per say......
  • BR1986FB
    As far as my comments on Mike Lombardi...every franchise he's touched has turned to shit and he was the behind the scenes "mole" that drove Bernie Kosar out of town.

    EDIT: Ok, it's Grossi but this will give you a little bit more on Lombardi...

    Forgot we started 3-3.

    The Colt McCoy lovers have been quiet for several weeks now. Although he may be 29, Weeden is certainly an upgrade on McCoy, and he continues to make improvements week in and week out.

    the "lovers" are just as bad as the "haters"

    Believe it or not, there were some people arguing that McCoy should still be our starting quarterback a few weeks ago. Sorry for bringing his name up :p

    And today on the train I heard a 10 year old kid say he should be president, doesn't mean it holds any credibility.

    Just because some retard on a Cleveland radio show or a Browns forum said it doesn't make it legit.

    No one with a brain wants McCoy anywhere near the field; if there were ever any comments they were most likely made in jest (hence my "bring in McCoy :D" post in the Philly game).
  • shook_17
    ^^ i do. i like him as our starter from here on out. i am officially of the weeden banwagon
  • BR1986FB
    Yeah, the McCoy subject needs to stop. Unless Weeden gets hurt or his arm falls off, #12 isn't seeing the field.
