Opal312 Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Watching highlights of yesterday's loss to Miami I wondered why Pryor wasn't asked to at least try & kick a field goal. He threw the ball, caught the ball, ran the ball and even played safety! He was a one man wrecking crew! Not since Lou the Toe Groza and Frank Gifford have I seen such an athletic performance. And Pryor is a big guy too! So memo to the Browns Front Office: Give the ball to Pryor on offense, defense and special teams! What do you have to lose?

At least have him in there to try to block kicks. He can jump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opal312 Posted September 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 He looked Huge! Towers over most players. I'd use him like old school football! At least it's fun to watch. It would have been epic if we won yesterday but thanks to "Our Liquored Up" kicker we lost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alkid3 Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 This thought was running through my head when parkey missed the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 This is how I was envisioning Flip using Pryor LAST year.....but they cut him instead. At least they brought him back...eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opal312 Posted September 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 When Pryor was in high school he was one of the most sought after recruits in the nation. He can play ball, he's athletic. I'm glad Hue gave him another chance. It shows Hue recognizes talent and knows how to utilize a player's strengths. There's going to be light at the end of the tunnel with Jackson. Just have to be patient. That was my first opportunity to see a Browns game and it sure was exciting. Now only if they could play Tampa and Jacksonville I could see more games besides the one Thursday each year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjp28 Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 To be fair a lot of teams cut himYes plus multitasking at the NFL level isn't always wise at all unless your name is Bo Jackson, too easy to get injured trying to bang in long FGs without pulling a groin....let him do the WR and maybe occasionally wild cat QB. Raw talent yes but he never really cut it as a QB1.  *Edit add- his only professional team (besides the BUCKEYES ) was the Oakland Raiders who tried to do different things with him before he left there for Cleveland.

TypicalBrowns Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Pryor was great sunday. Hue and his scheming also was part of TPs success, one reason why I'm a tad excited about the offensive capabilities we will have when Gordon and Coleman are playing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opal312 Posted September 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 I just read an article at CBSSPORTS.COM by Pete Brisco who says Robbie Gould would have cost $985,000 league minimum for a veteran with his 11 years. Parkey cost $525,000 They were saving money! Parkey earned 30,880 for hitting 3 of 6 field goals. We lost because the Browns were "penny wise-pound foolish" Saving money for what? The move to another city? Haslam really just sucks! He and Goodell are ruining football for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you have to lose? believe me, if given the chance to practice kicking fg's, he would be good at it...this guy is a football player. Now we need about 3 more players like him. 1 at lb, 1 on the dl, and one in the secondary and we will be talking playoffs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Browns1216 Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Pryor was playing lights out, like he was out to redeem himself from the stupid "taunting" call against the Ravens. MVP for sure last Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
