    food for thought:

    Le'Veon Bell was asking for AT LEAST $15M per year with a large part guaranteed, he turned down $14M a year with a modest amount guaranteed (which is why he turned it down). If you invest that kind of cash into a single back, you won't have much left over for the position...then when injuries, or suspensions, or what ever...He's missed at least 3 games in 3 of his 5 seasons... happen, that amount doesn't seem to be a great investment.

    What the Browns have done instead is invest on average $12.1M over the next 3 years for Hyde, Johnson AND a rookie stud in Chubb.

    If one of the studs get hurt, you have another in the stable. They may not be able to do what Bell can do consistently, but very few can. What they should be able to do though is give the team the same production that the Steelers will get from their backfield as a whole. Now, the Steelers do what they do well, and really, I think their running game falls off much less without Bell, than their passing game falls off without Ben.

    I think we have a nice combination of skills back there, I also can't wait to see them in action.

  3. That’s what we call a false post but from your above post about the RBs I can see why...Hyde wasn’t resigned from his original team w cap space, Duke may get 50 carries a year and Chubb hasn’t played a down yet but let’s compare him to the best overall RB in the game...smh

    and THIS is why David Halton made fun of you for hours....

    All the post did was explain how a team can use a committee to makeup what one man can do...and you "interpret" it as Chubb is being compared to Bell. I know reading isn't your strong suit, but it is stronger than your ability to decipher football overall.

    Exactly...

    Stopper c'mon. You've been doing this for a long time. Just admit, your M.O. is to try and infuriate the poster....It's flat out troll-ish behavior. It's not a coincidence that we all feel the same way, and every regular Browns poster has called you out on it.

    Yesterday I made the simple observation that the Browns have upgraded the secondary, and posted a long article that detailed exactly why any football fan would feel that way. Complete with individual breakdowns of all the new additions, starting with the #4 overall pick Denzel Ward (DBU)....And you immediately respond to the post with: "Browns secondary is upgraded based on what??"

    ^^^
    you define troll.

    Landry Jones and Antonio Brown played 178 snaps together (about 2.5 games) in 2015 / 2016 and AB had 19 receptions and 337 yards. The notion that AB needs Ben was brought up simply because of how bad Michael Vick sucked. It never held any water like a lot of things Sam tries to put out there.

    Now back to Browns football...

  11. So after reading that paragraph all you took out of that was I compared Bell to Chubb...wow man you are seriously clueless
     
  12. Actually we had an intense 7 on 7 vs a highly regarded school in Pitt called Penn Hills 2 weeks ago
     
  13. I will say again on paper they have upgraded the secondary...it has yet to be factual if your post is true...you, SAS and Irish make claims as facts instead of possibly, looks like etc...that’s what is so annoying when you make those posts...then you get called out and I’m a troll...has Denzel Ward proved he’s better than McCourty to actually say they upgraded the position

    Should I pick on ShowStopper because he's kind of well... We all know. Or would you rather know about a semi knowledgeable opinion on the future of your team.(may be closer to Show's opinion than you would like}

  17. I just try and keep them sane...most of their posts are insane or beyond logic/realistic...they can call themselves true fans but I call it fans w brown and orange colored glasses on...like I said earlier anybody can make crazy assumptions or predictions w/out any consequences
     
  18. SPress Franchise Player Manager

    Think I am on ShowStoppers side
     
  19. I’m sure they will come on here soon and try and tell us Mayfield will surpass Brady, Gordon will be better than Moss and Njoku will be better than Gronk

    g
    Well. that would be silly and I don't believe it. The only comparable physically or mentally is Moss/Gordon they were both beast that never won nothing. Now you want to talk great receivers lets get into Troy Brown
