Hey has stumbled more than once tonight while trying to run and was limping a bit after a hit...he's still running and colliding carelessly.

The more and more I watch of him the less I believe he will be in the league very long.

They line not holding up or receivers not getting open. When they give him time he's throwing good balls

Have to wonder if he's running like that during preseason.

BTW, do the Browns teach their defenders to hold on every play? Wow.

The best development tool he should have used was chaining himself to a fat guy so he has to stay in the pocket and see how that works out.

Had two thoughts while watching this game:

#1. Griffin is not long for this league as you mentioned. He's still reckless and hasn't learned a damn thing. With those bird legs of his he's an injury waiting to happen.
#2. If the refs call penalties during the season like they're doing tonight, the game of pro football will be diminished and maybe ruined for good.

You would think that they would make him stay in the pocket during preseason. Make them work on that part of the game. Going through progressions, work on pocket awareness. Use the preseason to get work on aspects of your game that needs it.

Watched his legs flopping around like crazy a couple times after he tried to run

On the scramble to the left he took 3 shots on the same tackle. Inexcusable at this point. On the play where he got up limping, he slid into the legs of a Brown and his left knee got slightly hyper-flexed. It's hard to imagine him making it through 16 games playing this way.

There might be some backlash if they try to turn him into a pocket passer when they forfeited the immediate future of their Franchise to draft him as the waterbug he is. Though, at this point, there might not be any other options. He can't keep running around on those chopsticks forever. Tiny ass legs of his.

TFG - starts with thank and ends with god - we did not draft RG mememe.
Thank you Stan, thank you Jeff, and thank you Les. Not necessarily in that order.

And thank you Spags for drafting Bradford. That said, thanks for nothing for your f'n 2 second buzzer, and for choosing "Murmer" to indoctrinate Sam in the belief that checking down is always better than taking a chance.

Prediction: in Sam's mind right now, he's thinking, "whatever Schotty. - but if this line gives me that extra 1/2 to 1 second, take your check down and ...

I'm not saying make him a pocket passer for the regular season. I say make him one in the preseason.

I'd rather make him a pretty little ballerina in preseason, and then ... I dunno ... maybe a milk maiden for the regular season.

How about Manziel? Do you think he will last 16 games this season?

At the risk of being thick, why " 5 dislikes from deletion"?

And, how many dislikes for deletion?

If 5 people think you are being a douche, then your post will be deleted, but it can be countered by likes. It's a self moderating forum, "Inappropriate" shouldn't be used if you just don't agree with someone. It should only be used if someone is acting like an idiot, or breaking forum rules. Not saying you did, BTW, just trying to offer an explanation to your ?

Gruden made a comment that many of the big hits he has seen in the NFL have been on Robert Griffin of the Three. Manziel is reckless like him as well.
