dma0034 Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 I believe this is the first time Belichick has traded with the Browns.... is that correct?

Coach Tuesday Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 It must be nice to root for an organization that collects talent with an eye towards winning games in the present tense.
dubs Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 I think I figured this board out! Before the trade most of the board was complaining that Josh Gordon was too much of a risk and probably won’t play another game in the league. After the trade most most of the board is complaining that the Pats continue to make brilliant moves and the Bills suck and Josh Gordon is Randy Moss 2.0. So, my analysis is that people only come here to complain, with a few exceptions. ** I would have loved if the Bills gave up a conditional low round pick for Gordon - as Majbobby made a good case for. 2

Why don't you find and quote a poster who has said both things? That would make your point more impactful.

Thats my point! Not that people are flip flopping (although that does happen). It’s that many people just come on and make negative posts so every thread seems negative. 1
Lurker Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 Can we start the countdown for when he's released by the Pats?....

The kid unfortunately will likely screw up again and Belichick will show him the door I kinda agree. There is a CHANCE this may work out for the Pats, but I put that at well under 50%. The Pats are taking on WRs the Browns don't want anymore, and one that the Bills got rid of pretty quick. Also, I'm not saying that Brady can't adjust to differnet WR styles (I'm sure he can) but it seems the Pats offense is predicated on WR's that do not pay the game Gordon does. They live on short slants, hitches, and the WR's knowing exactly what to do and being on the same page as Brady. Cooks last year was a big time WR, downfield threat and the Pats didn't want him after just one year anymore.
Charlottebillsfan2 Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 The best part is they released coleman to make room for him. Yet some fans were going nuts when we released him and they signed him.

ExWNYer Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 Of all teams, dealing him to the ´Évil Empire´. WTH is wrong with Cleveland?! I hope that Godforsaken, tire fire of a franchise eternally burns in hell. 1
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 ...Coleman out and Gordon in.....guess Belichick took the lesser of TWO evils..........................

You could have copied and pasted this from a thread about Corey Coleman or Brandon Reilly and it wouldn't surprise me if you actually did. 51 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: I said it would take a 5th to get the trade done. What did it take again?? Did anyone argue with you? I'm surprised in the opposite direction. I would have thought a 6th rounder would get it done.
K-9 Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 3 hours ago, Kelly the Dog said: I know three things about Josh Gordon. His atrocious record with Baylor, the league, weed, suspensions, the Browns, availability, etc. One of worst ever. His outrageous skills and production when playing with Baylor, the Browns, the league, etc. One of very best in league. Top 5. Contrary to popular belief, he is a thoughtful guy, not at all a thug, not a jerk, not as one would assume he is if you take the time to learn a lot about him. What I don't know is how he is in practice and around his teammates. it seems as though he tries when he is there. I think, but I don't know at all, that his teammates liked him. I haven't seen stories to the opposite. To me he is Terrell Owens. A lot of fans hated him and his antics. To me, he worked his ass off, blocked well, never took plays off, and when he was traded to the Bills was a model citizen, even though I know and knew for sure he did some outrageously stupid things in the past. He can help Josh a lot by getting open, getting deep, taking the defense's focus off other receivers, making plays, scoring TDs, etc. He did it for Tyrod in his only game this year. IF he is a player who tries in practice and isn't a jerk. I don't know that he is a locker room or practice player cancer at all. And I know it's a 10% chance he plays, plays the whole season for anyone, and does well. I'll take that chance considering we have Andre Holmes as our #3. I disagree. And I’ll leave it at that. Except to say the Owens comparison is apt in terms of pure talent. But that’s where it ends for me. If Gordon ever shows an ounce of the same football character that Owens did, I’ll change my stance.
TheFunPolice Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 (edited) Teams just love to keep helping NE acquire talent. Maybe one of these AFC teams will grow a pair and stop them from ruining Super Bowl Sunday this year. Please? I just want to relax and enjoy the game without my heart pounding out of my chest and frothing at the mouth like a lunatic the entire time. I don't think I sleep for 2 days after a NE Super Bowl. It's too much. Edited September 17, 2018 by TheFunPolice 1 1

Finally, this year, a possible Achilles heel...bad wr corps. And Cleveland decides to throw them a life preserver, for a player that will probably never start for them. I hate other teams for doing this. Yeah, the least that they could have done was trade him to a NFC team.

In the end, watching NE lose a Super Bowl is one of the greatest feelings in sports. But it's the risk that they might win that is too much to handle. I literally cannot watch their games UNLESS it's like yesterday where I turn it on with 2:00 to go and the other team has the ball and an 11 point lead. EVEN THEN I'm nervous, expecting a fumble return for a TD and an onside kick with a hail mary to win it for NE, rather than the FG to tie it up. Just because.
