  Just think it's too early to label him a bust. It's not too early to say he's very underwhelming for where he was drafted, however.

  If he's on the team by season's end I'd be surprised. He's a bust.

  At least we don't have to deal with this anymore http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlights/0ap3000000509720/Weeden-fumbles-snap?campaign=Facebook_video_cowboys

  Hopefully he is only the slot/nickel corner this year and Haden and Williams see the field every game. Actually, I'd rather K'W as the nickel and Gilbert as the dime.

  I am obviously on a PFF kick since I just got the account, but here is another interesting stat.
  
  Last year Hoyer's QB rating on the play action was 99.7, which was good for top 11 in the league. When there wasn't a play action, his rating dropped to 67.2, which was good for 2nd to last (to blake bortles). Just goes to show that this team needs to be able to run the ball.

  Remember when BR said the Jags are in much better shape than the Browns because they are set at quarterback because of blake bortles lulz.

  In the spirit of the Brandon Weeden video...Raider fans have had enough of Richardson already.

  HAHA.....well in Trent Richardson's defense, it is only preseason, and he is just you know, getting used to the jersey color....again....of the team he will be sitting the bench for.....again.....

  Unlikely he will be sitting the bench... More like sitting on his couch, because he's going to get cut.

  Just think, we could have had Mike Evans. Instead we have a shitty DB

  I'd have preferred us take Mack at 4.

  YES.
• Lovejoy1984

  

  Would've liked to see him shed the blocker and make the TFL. But, dude is a monster.
• Lovejoy1984

  

  Run defense looks solid. Tramon Williams is trash tonight though.
• SportsAndLady

  

  This game seems like it's running so low. So many injuries and timeouts.
  
  And the offenses are iffy too.
• SportsAndLady

  

  This offense looks so bad. Just no weapons anywhere.
• Lovejoy1984

  

  Shocker to no one, but McCown is playing like trash.
• DeyDurkie5

  

  This is an awful game
• Dr. KnOiTaLL

  

  I wonder why the Browns haven't kicked the tires on Evan Mathis. Seems like he'd be a quality add?
• Lovejoy1984

  

  At this point, Manziel needs to get some reps with the 1st team next week. See how he looks against a starting defense.
• SportsAndLady

  

  Week 1 starters gotta be Johnny. Neither of our QBs are any good but at least Johnny has a little bit of excitement.
  
  The only excitement Mccown brings is maybe a 6 yard out completion.
• Lovejoy1984

  

  Agreed. I've thought that since they signed McCown. Unless he came in and played like he did that year in Chicago, you've gotta give Manziel the year. He's been outstanding so far this pre-season, against scrubs and grocery baggers, but solid nonetheless.
• shook_17

  

  This offense lacks creativity. Maybe it's just preseason but so fucking predictable tonight. #StartManziel
• SportsAndLady

  

  McClown is just your typical Browns QB of the last 15 years. Not much excitement, can't win a game, was only signed because they had no one else to sign and had to get someone.
  
  I'll pass
