  1. Actually that could work as gets him out of the NFC and Lynn gets a better version of Tyrod and LA a name QB to draw interest.
  2. Who would he throw too besides Brown? The Titans WRs might be worse than the Patriots.
  3. If mean Tannehill, like Brady he is set to be an UFA.
  4. No. I can't see Cam sitting behind someone if he's healthy.
  5. I didn't see him coach but history says Harvey Johnson wasn't all that great either.
  6. Of course I remember Hardy and hated the pick when we made it as he had red flags in the draft, granted the guy I liked, Devin Thomas, didn't amount to anything either.
  7. Honestly, I liked Burkett as he had serious size/speed but him and Kelly butted heads yet letting him go lead to us getting Lofton which wasn't horrible as the rest is history.
  8. I doubt half the fans remember good old #85, hard to believe we took him before Andre Reed.
  9. I know who it is because have seen this photo before but I don't want to ruin the surprise.
  10. If somehow the Browns become a better team and win a playoff game or two because of AVP's coaching he might be in discussion for a HC job.

  12. but Flutie didn't choke when he literally dropped the ball aka fumbled when the Dolphins playoff game was on the line or toss in he also threw a bad INT before half time that cost us points too.
  13. It does because the offense was playing much better with RJ in the last two games he started, Flutie stepping in helped but it might be he stepped into a better situation than RJ started in the first two games. Yet I get it the only thing that counts is the win or loss not the way it was done. Again how many games did Flutie play in the USFL, NFL and CFL before he got here? I bet it was a lot more than ONE that RJ had.
  14. Correction, the Bills were 1-3 when Flutie came in for an injured RJ against the Colts and if wasn't for a defensive collapse that Flutie failed to kill the clock in few minutes against the Rams we could have been 2-2. I love how the narrative of how bad we were before the magic man "saved our season". RJ did produce in 1998 after struggling in his first two games (or his second and third career NFL starts). Yet I know it doesn't fit the Flutie fan rewrite of history. The biggest issue is the 1998 version of Flutie wasn't the same one we saw in 1999, as either defenses caught up to him or maybe father time did or maybe a little bit of both. Either way RJ had youth on his side but I agree he took too many sacks and it prevented him from staying on the field and ultimately wasn't good enough for us. Yet the way Flutie was playing in 1999 he wasn't a long term answer either. Another thing that makes many of us hate Flutie is that his fans want to praise him for all his wins yet when he lost the shift of blame goes elsewhere, see the playoff loss against Miami people clamor Flutie was blindsided and had no chance to not fumble or Andre Reed taking the penalty cost us the game not Flutie yet if RJ loses a game like the Titans playoff game it's solely because RJ didn't produce enough points or took too many sacks etc.
  15. If you look at his last 6 games of 1999 Flutie's offenses averaged close to 16 points a game, so to think Flutie would have done better than RJ is just hindsight and guessing. The reason for the Flutie hate is he was praised as the sole reason we were winning yet in reality again he was a caretaker and didn't offer an upside that RJ could have. Imagine if you will that the Bills drafted Josh Allen and then signed Josh McCown, would you want us starting McCown over Allen? Also the reports that the offense was worse under RJ is debatable, sure he took sacks but look at his last two games, the 1998 and 1999 finales. He put up 45 and 31 points respectively.
  16. I think Drew's noticing as good as he is the Saints likely won't win a Super Bowl anytime soon so likely nothing more to play for.
  17. Flutie won what? Plain and simple was a game manager in 1999. All he really did was divide a locker room and a fanbase. You realize we wasted two years with Flutie starting. If we kept RJ as starter in 1998 we might have cut him sooner and not been in cap hell due to paying them both starting money. Valid points on both.
  18. Oh I didn't hear about the flip. Thanks for the update.
  19. Yeah, we could use a Moulds type on the current roster too. No on Shenault he reminds me of Watkins at Clemson too much.
  20. Ha! That be ironic. Yet think he moved there more due to taxes and the proximity to his childhood home in Alabama. Eekd I had flashbacks of Tyrod Taylor with that statement.
  21. I think Gore embraced the kid since he's coming from the school his kid playing at. Good for Devin and wish Frank to whatever next year brings him but prefer it not be as a RB with the Bills as he showed his age down the stretch.
  22. Very well a possibility.
  23. I'd rather sign another former BROWNS' RB, Isaiah Crowell.
