The Gipper Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 A few questions/issues popped up while looking over media reports. Give your opinions/answers: 1. A report was given that Lamar Jackson claimed that the only reason the Ravens lost to the Titans last year was because he overlooked them, and that they would have probably won had he not taken them lightly. What say you about this claim? 2. Another report claimed that now that the Steelers seem to be going to have Ben Roethlisberger back, apparently healthy, that the Steelers will be a juggernaut in the AFCN and the AFC overall. What say you about this claim? 3. Colin Cowherd said that Joe Burrow will struggle mightily this coming year....and beyond perhaps primarily because the Bengals are such a bad organization, and that he may never live up to his potential until and unless he gets the chance to leave the Bengals. What say you about that claim? 4. The Carolina Panthers put together survey with a list of players that have played for that team since its inception in 1995, asking them to vote on that team's GOAT (Greatest of All Time). But, apparently, the Panthers left Cam Newton completely off the survey list. What say you about that move by them? 5. There could be any number of Browns subjects to ask your opinion on....but let's do this: Give your opinion on Something, Anything that peaks your interest to do with the Browns and/or their future prospects for the forthcoming season, or beyond.

nickers Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 1. A report was given that Lamar Jackson claimed that the only reason the Ravens lost to the Titans last year was because he overlooked them, and that they would have probably won had he not taken them lightly. What say you about this claim? Bullshit whiner 2. Another report claimed that now that the Steelers seem to be going to have Ben Roethlisberger back, apparently healthy, that the Steelers will be a juggernaut in the AFCN and the AFC overall. What say you about this claim? Bullshit 3. Colin Cowherd said that Joe Burrow will struggle mightily this coming year....and beyond perhaps primarily because the Bengals are such a bad organization, and that he may never live up to his potential until and unless he gets the chance to leave the Bengals. What say you about that claim? Wouldnt surprise me 4. The Carolina Panthers put together survey with a list of players that have played for that team since its inception in 1995, asking them to vote on that team's GOAT (Greatest of All Time). But, apparently, the Panthers left Cam Newton completely off the survey list. What say you about that move by them? Awesome!... He's a pussy! 5.

Zombo Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 1. A report was given that Lamar Jackson claimed that the only reason the Ravens lost to the Titans last year was because he overlooked them, and that they would have probably won had he not taken them lightly. What say you about this claim? Sounds like horrible coaching and horrible leadership from the QB. I'm surprised that anyone on a John Harbaugh team would make a statement like that. 2. Another report claimed that now that the Steelers seem to be going to have Ben Roethlisberger back, apparently healthy, that the Steelers will be a juggernaut in the AFCN and the AFC overall. What say you about this claim? I really don't see why. Outside of the coach and the quarterback ... they are rather ordinary. 3. Colin Cowherd said that Joe Burrow will struggle mightily this coming year....and beyond perhaps primarily because the Bengals are such a bad organization, and that he may never live up to his potential until and unless he gets the chance to leave the Bengals. What say you about that claim? I think he'll do fine there. Maybe not this year, but he has all the tools and a good head on his shoulders. 4. The Carolina Panthers put together survey with a list of players that have played for that team since its inception in 1995, asking them to vote on that team's GOAT (Greatest of All Time). But, apparently, the Panthers left Cam Newton completely off the survey list. What say you about that move by them? Seeing as he was the NFL MVP I think that is a huge blunder. I imagine the only MVP in their history. Seems weird ... Maybe personal? 5. There could be any number of Browns subjects to ask your opinion on....but let's do this: Give your opinion on Something, Anything that peaks your interest to do with the Browns and/or their future prospects for the forthcoming season, or beyond. I will pick 5 players that could possibly have a breakout season: Drew Forbes, Chad Thomas, Mack Wilson, Greedy Williams, TakiTaki. Jamie Gilan is an All Pro Punter this year.

The Gipper Posted June 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 A few questions/issues popped up while looking over media reports. Give your opinions/answers: 1. A report was given that Lamar Jackson claimed that the only reason the Ravens lost to the Titans last year was because he overlooked them, and that they would have probably won had he not taken them lightly. What say you about this claim? It is a farcical claim. The Tits just flat out kicked the Ratfuckers asses. They were the better, tougher team. Their coach diavowed this suggestion, and I do trust that he is the one Harbaugh that has a clue. 2. Another report claimed that now that the Steelers seem to be going to have Ben Roethlisberger back, apparently healthy, that the Steelers will be a juggernaut in the AFCN and the AFC overall. What say you about this claim? I think it is a Dusty Springfield claim: a wishing, a hoping, and thinking, and praying and dreaming. They could be around .500. That's it. 3. Colin Cowherd said that Joe Burrow will struggle mightily this coming year....and beyond perhaps primarily because the Bengals are such a bad organization, and that he may never live up to his potential until and unless he gets the chance to leave the Bengals. What say you about that claim? Well....the claim that the Bengals have been/maybe are a bad organization is certainly valid. And bad organizations can kill a QB...(and bad QBs can kill an organization..Hello Cleveland.) So, there is some legitimacy to the speculation. If the Bengals have not made the proper choice of HC....Hello Cleveland, can you say Hue/Freddie.....that can kill a QBs chances as well. I say that the chances are about 50/50 that what was said proves correct. 4. The Carolina Panthers put together survey with a list of players that have played for that team since its inception in 1995, asking them to vote on that team's GOAT (Greatest of All Time). But, apparently, the Panthers left Cam Newton completely off the survey list. What say you about that move by them? I say that there was never a need for that team to even conduct that survey. Cam Newton has, hands down, been the best player in Carolina Panther history. The act of conducting the survey at all, and then obviously to leave him off the list was all pure juvenile spitefulness on the part of that organization. I think they have hired a coach who, while has had success at turning programs around in college, may be in over his head in the NFL. It would not surprise me if this team may be in contention for the #1 draft pick next year....assuming we have a season. 5. There could be any number of Browns subjects to ask your opinion on....but let's do this: Give your opinion on Something, Anything that peaks your interest to do with the Browns and/or their future prospects for the forthcoming season, or beyond. The Browns could/should be in for a good solid season this year...assuming we have a season. What can screw things up? A possible list: A. The Haslam taint. JimmyDee has proven he can bollix up just about anything. Hopefully he steps aside and lets the team run itself B. That Stefanski ain't what we hope him to be, that he just turns out to be a redux of Freddie/Hue/Shurmur/Chud...etc. etc. But, in my gut I do NOT think that is the case. I think maybe we got it right this time. But, I could be, and have been proven wrong in the past....but I am optimistic here. C. That what I consider minor personnel deficiencies still hold this team back a bit. Mainly some parts of the defense. Signing Clowney and/or Clay Matthews III could help, perhaps......unless Berry and the coaches have made the right decision on going with certain young players.....and I think Z IDed a few of those players above that we hope they are right on about.

A report was given that Lamar Jackson claimed that the only reason the Ravens lost to the Titans last year was because he overlooked them, and that they would have probably won had he not taken them lightly. What say you about this claim? The Rats were awful and the titans are one of the most fundamentally sound teams. Bad mix. They didn’t take them lightly they played poorly. 2. Another report claimed that now that the Steelers seem to be going to have Ben Roethlisberger back, apparently healthy, that the Steelers will be a juggernaut in the AFCN and the AFC overall. What say you about this claim? More pride before the fall. They’ve just added another non playoff year and prolonged a rebuild good for them. I’m sad. 3. Colin Cowherd said that Joe Burrow will struggle mightily this coming year....and beyond perhaps primarily because the Bengals are such a bad organization, and that he may never live up to his potential until and unless he gets the chance to leave the Bengals. What say you about that claim? I think the stars aligned for Joe last year. I think he’s a good prospect but he’s probably somewhere between Joe 18 and Joe 19 and yes the bengals are still far away. Cowturd. is probably right. 4.

Another report claimed that now that the Steelers seem to be going to have Ben Roethlisberger back, apparently healthy, that the Steelers will be a juggernaut in the AFCN and the AFC overall. What say you about this claim? They'll be a factor as usual. Can't stand 'em, but they're not going away easy. 3.

If there's a season, I expect the Browns to contend in the division. I think the defense will be much improved (Wilks is gone), and I'm hopeful the offense will be fine. The only caveat is teams like the Browns, with a new coaching staff, are probably behind in preparation due to the new systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What say you about this claim? Hell it might be true (in his mind anyways) but the Titans soundly beat them, and this makes Lamar look like a clueless idiot. Just shut up, take the loss, and learn from it. 2. Another report claimed that now that the Steelers seem to be going to have Ben Roethlisberger back, apparently healthy, that the Steelers will be a juggernaut in the AFCN and the AFC overall. What say you about this claim? Juggernaut? I just don't see the talent on the offensive side for this... But if Ben can still play to the level he was at before the injury, he and that defense can win 10 or 11 games without a doubt. 3. Colin Cowherd said that Joe Burrow will struggle mightily this coming year....and beyond perhaps primarily because the Bengals are such a bad organization, and that he may never live up to his potential until and unless he gets the chance to leave the Bengals. What say you about that claim? I don't know, did Carson Palmer struggle mightily when he started his career with the Bengals? Did Andy Dalton? Now, the living up to his potential? That's quite possible because of the Bengals. 4.

But, apparently, the Panthers left Cam Newton completely off the survey list. What say you about that move by them? Absolute 'Fuck You' move by the Panthers. There's absolutely no way they would have pulled this move last year with him still on the roster. This is akin to Dan Gilbert's comic sans letter ripping LeBron the night he took his talents elsewhere. 5.

I don't know that they've done enough to fix the 30th ranked D vs. the rush. If you can't stop the rush, you can't win much. They did bring in Adrian Clayborn and Andrew Billings and BJ Goodson....and drafted Jordan Elliot and Jacob Phillips. That has been their solution...to date to the Run D dilemma. And Takitaki and Wilson are made starters at LB it seems. Each entering year 2. They certainly have brought in drafted a number of people. Is it enough? I am not necessarily sold either.
