    You see he didn't address your question.......he merely asked you two more questions.  Haha.

     

    As far as the Browns are concerned, the move to get Taylor and then draft Mayfield was wise.  If things work according to plan, Taylor will give them stability at QB, he won't lose games for them....all the while, Mayfield can sit and learn a bit.  As difficult as the QB position is, how often do we see teams throw the rookie into the fire and watch them burn.  It happens quite a bit in the NFL these days.  IMO, the Browns are going to be much improved this year and they could possibly go .500.  If Jackson plays his cards right, he can get Mayfield some reps along the way just to see how he reacts.    

     

    I don't care who the rookie QB is.....if he can sit, watch, learn and get some reps his first year, that's the best way to do it.  Personally, I don't think any of the rookie QB's in this class could step in and have smooth sailing.  The position is THAT difficult.

     

    The Browns are going to go .500 when they are still the worst team in their division?

     

    OK.

    Having lived with a partially torn ACL for several years (before completely tearing it away) I would just comment that so long as what remains is structurally holding things in place, it doesn't really affect you. Also, some people can live normal, active lives (like downhill skiing active) with no ACL anymore, just because of how they are built. 

    So I don't really know what to make of the 85% torn claim as it relates to what his performance would have otherwise been if not torn at all. It strikes me that it might not have been any different. 

     

    This is true.

     

    I haven’t had an ACL in my right knee since 1987.

     

    I am still an active person. Obviously not on a professional athlete’s scale but, none the less, I have been very active for the past 31 years with no side effects.
