    I wasn't a huge foles believer, looks like I'm wrong thus far.

    He's played well, but the sample size is WAY too short to characterize him as "awesome" - see RGIII-X.

    "I would consider RGIII for the Colts 1st round pick. Not saying I would do it, but I would definitely consider it."

    Interesting. I thought Luck was the rational choice, he has struggled at times but it is one of the top 12 quarterbacks in the league. I'm not sure what would be expected from RGIII, but apparently there is a rift with him and Shanny.

    No. The Browns have the Colts' 1st round pick in the '14 draft. He is saying he would consider trading that pick to Washington for RG3.

    Is he really a top 12 QB this year though?

    To me, RG3 is an athlete that plays QB. I want a real QB, not a guy that is going to give defenses trouble for one year because they aren't used to his athletic ability. If anyone that knows anything about football, they can just watch RG3 and simply notice he doesn't have the proper mechanics that most successful QBs have. He is just like Vick, except Vick was a much more exciting player who had more potential IMO. Vick just never developed as a QB, and baed on RG3s season he really hasn't done anything to develop as a QB either. I can see him having some solid seasons just like Vick, but I don't think he would ever be worth 3 first round picks. Hopefully a lot of teams notice this and they won't make ridiculous trades and increasing the value of certain picks.

    Any reason to believe that the people who will be in D.C. next year would take that deal?

    If you watch there games, like me, yes. No doubt. Stats wise, he is probably right around top 10-12, I'm. It sure. But just watch the games. He is playing behind the worst o-line in the nfl again, and no with NO talent at the skill positions. Yet, still has them at 3-3 since the Wayne injury.

    Vick also have a cannon for an arm. One of the strongest arms in the league, RG3 isn't in that class.

    RG3 sucks. Let's stop talking about that bum and focus on someone who we can actually get. Thank you.

    You just don't leave for months and then act like you can change the discussion topic. GTFO.

    Anyway, moving on. I think bortles is a great fit.

    RG3 is the worst. Most overrated athlete of all time. Not too mention he is under contract with the Skins and Dan Snyder's love child. It's stupid to even talk about it.

    I just thought of something.

    Breowns will sign Shaub this offseason to be the browns QB. Watch.

    Garcia, Dilfer, Failhomme, Shaub. Makes too much sense not to happen, the most Browns move ever.

    I apologize for not knowing how to quote more than 1 post....but I read thru some of the thread around "the bet" time.....here are 7 pics of the posts that tell the story.

    So BR, ILikeTurtles and lhslep are the only 3 that committed to it and the one pic shows Tiernan saying that.

    the one pic clearly shows like_that wasn't any part of it.

    ....and obviously my name isn't anywhere on it.

    BR was only going to commit to it if it was lifetime bet. Pretty sure lhslep decided not to agree with it if tiernan didn't agree to add a month for each person he bet with. So, basically his bet only stands with turtles, who isn't a browns fan. LOLFAIL

    Just seems odd that he keeps talking about it.....said "dozens" and then included me and it turns out it was 1 person.

    I guess I have 24 wives.

    He always brings up me too. I never participated in that discussion from what I remember. Just randomly throws me in there lol he must have been drunk at the time and doesn't remember who he was betting. Shocker there

    Your posts then said 8-8 but you weren't any part of the bet at all.

    It was fairly entertaining reading through a decent portion of this.

    Can't possibly expect a deadbeat drunk to get his facts straight.
  • Tiernan
    Entertaining. Can't believe Ironsides went thru the gyrations to find all that. So be it ill be happy to see ihslep and Turtles gone for 30 days. BR took himself out already. COA, S&L never had the balls to step up on the first place.

    I started by guessing page 200.....then jumped to 220....then 230 I knew I was getting close. Read 230-245. So I read 19 pages of posts on my phone.....or by your numbers 152 pages.
