High School Harry

That's in the Stealers playbook.

Dalton?

High School Harry's Random Thought of the Day When the Browns come to town instead of the canned music how about blaring "Send in the Clowns" over the PA when they take the field? NO

What gets me is after they return we hear stuff like "knocking off the rust" and "working himself back into playing shape". And if he isn't that good (ref Billy Price), he "came back too soon" or "wasn't completely over the injury". Especially if he gets injured again soon after. That's what's gong to happen with John "The Bust" Ross. Count on it.

"With Carl, we had this plan in place months ago since he’s coming off the ACL (injury). And Geno is just a guy that we’ll give an extra day of rest," said Taylor. "On offense, don’t expect the two running backs (Joe Mixon and Giovani Bernard) to play. Again, that is nothing of significance whatsoever. We need to see these young guys pass protect and see what they can do to step up, so they’re going to get to play the whole game." Taylor added that the plan with Eifert is "just protecting him as he comes back off that injury. We want to make sure we get the most out of him." Wide receiver John Ross is still day-to-day with hamstring tightness and Taylor said he doesn't anticipate him playing without having practiced in training camp.

I think Pray Tell wore one of those at one of the balls in "Pose" while Voguing.

Sports Browns trade RB Duke Johnson to Texans for 2020 draft pick CLEVELAND (AP) — The Cleveland Browns traded disgruntled running back Duke Johnson to the Houston Texans on Thursday for an undisclosed 2020 draft pick. A person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press that Cleveland is getting a fourth-round pick that can become a third-rounder. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the teams are not providing details of the swap. One of the NFL's most versatile backs in the past four seasons, Johnson had grown unhappy with his role and asked to be traded this year after the Browns signed suspended free agent running back Kareem Hunt. The 25-year-old Johnson has been sidelined for much of training camp with a hamstring injury. He skipped the team's voluntary offseason program and in June and doubled down on his trade request, saying he was bothered the Browns weren't showing him any loyalty after he signed a contract extension. General manager John Dorsey was adamant he wasn't going to "give away" Johnson. Before the trade, Dorsey and coach Freddie Kitchens insisted Johnson would have a "vital" role in Cleveland's offense this season. During his rift with the Browns, Johnson changed agents and hired Drew Rosenhaus, who met with Dorsey at the start of training camp. Johnson has rushed for 1,286 career yards and caught 235 passes for 2,170. With Johnson gone and Hunt out for the first eight games because of an NFL suspension for two violent incidents, second-year back Nick Chubb will get the majority of carries. The Browns drafted Johnson in the third round in 2015 out of Miami.

The Bengals today placed DT Niles Scott on the Reserve/Injured list. Scott, a second-year player, suffered a foot injury in practice on July 31. He played in Cincinnati’s final six games last season, and recorded four tackles.

Him or Stanley Wilson. Wilson is #8 making the catch in the video above.

Is that Jeff Blake being interfered with by WJIII grabbing his jersey?

We? Was Andy involved?

To the Loser list add: Malick Jefferson and Cody Core... heard more about Willis and Morgan than him. Can be replaced and not missed.

Especially the hairy ones.

Burfict on the Bengals https://www.yahoo.com/sports/raiders-linebacker-vontaze-burfict-takes-095633581.html I just think it’s exciting for people to see what type of team we have because the team chemistry we have is just amazing,” Burfict told the Associated Press. “This is my second team, but it’s the first time I’ve had a team like this and everybody gets along. It doesn’t matter what type of day it is. We’re all here to see each other get better and motivate each other. We’ve got a lot of characters, in a good way.”

Yeah, exactly. Says more about Porky Glenn than Carl Lawson. And that's not a knock on Lawson.

That's what I was afraid of. If we cut him can we get a comp pick when some other dupes pick him up? I'm sure he will be kept as a special teams ace but hate a dud taking up a roster spot. I would be all in favor of moving on from John Ross if we can get anything for him and before his next injury. Bust and dead wood.

Cricket > Fat Randy Sign him up!

I would like to see them trade Ross to Washington for Trent Williams straight up. But I would also like to see Taylor Swift coming into my bedroom with a cup of coffee in the morning wearing nothing but a smile.

Fleet of feet, slow of skull.

They'rrrree Herrrrree One step closer to opening day

Wait a minute.... was Auden Tate cut and I/we didn't know about it? If so, I missed it.

(you knew this was coming...)

I question Malick Jefferson. Will he be a quiet cut?
