Haha! One of the reasons I wanted to watch was to see more Allen.

Allen struggled, but almost made a putt that would have sent barkely into the pond.

I'd rather watch these guys play fake golf than fake football. Or any other barely-a-sport activity.

Televise a golf outing and make it competitive between conferences. Run 2 man match play scrambles and take cumulative points to determine the winner. Build out teams based on highest entertainment value, OL and DL pair up, facing off against their counterparts in the other conference. Mic em up, and watch them try to squeeze into a cart together. Good times!

I didn't see it but I read Brady was making fat jokes about Allen constantly. Only in TB12 world I guess!

Hey, the Lions had a nice comeback win in their pre-season home game yesterday! Wait, … that’s the CFL and the BC Lions

Deshaun Watson will have his 24th lawsuit filed Monday. That means 24 separate trials unless a settlement is reached. This will drag on into the 2023 season or even 2024 possibly.

3 #1's, 2 #3's and #4. Plus $230 million guaranteed. Even if the NFL suspends him w/o pay, the $45M bonus is already in his pocket.

Ouch. The factory of sadness continues.

I hate the browns just like the next person, but I’m sure they know (almost) nothing will come of this.

When your at 1.2% body fat (for marketing purposes), everyone’s a fatty!

Seriously? It's the Browns.

His idiot lawyer said "Happy Endings aren't illegal" then walked that back. The optics are horrible for the NFL, other owners are pissed at the amount guaranteed after he's never played a single down on the existing contract extension with Houston.

MLB suspended Trevor Bauer 2 full seasons for domestic abuse. Watson will get hammered.

Ladies & Gentleman YOUR Cleveland Browns!

The only thing better than hearing YOU'RE Cleveland browns

Watson needs Boob Krafts wack a mole attorney

There are several reports coming out that there was no foul-play or toxins involved in Marion Barber's death.

The NFL would be wise to get together their lawyers for a meeting ASAP....

I had thought it was a bad idea to trade and pay DeSean Watson, the Browns would have been better with Baker and the draft picks (and money to spend).

Now it is certainly the Watson is not out of trouble, he has to go to court or settle with 24+ women. I saw Jonnie Depp trial taking 5 weeks, not saying each trial will take that long but it would serve him and the Browns a right if he has to go to court and hopefully doesn't play for a long time. Baker is probably the best option for the Browns now but do they mend fences after he was thrown to the curb?

Aaron Donald re-signed for $95M through 2024 season. Highest paid non-QB in history.

https://www.nfl.com/news/rams-restructure-aaron-donald-contract-to-make-him-highest-paid-non-qb-in-nfl-hi

here's who was drafted before AD

2) Greg Robinson (out of the league)
3)Blake Bortles (GB practice squad)
4)Sammie Watkins (on 5th team)
8) Justin Gilbert (traded to Pitt for a 6th round pick)
10) Eric Ebron
12) OBJ (possible looking for 4th team)
13) Aaron Donald

I see one of the Walmart heirs is buying the Broncos for $4.5B.

Hopefully when it's time for a new stadium he ponies up like the Rams guy - also Walmart heir money (by marriage)

Will there be greeters by the turnstiles?

.....and the Baltimore Ravens can't seem to figure out how to re-sign/extend Lamar Jackson.

That’s the problem, half the time you end up with Wentz, Geoff type contracts that are too rich. But it’s better to sign them early before the price goes up.

Lamar isn’t Joe Montana but he’s surely a top 10-12 QB, better than Carr or Cousins worse than Aaron or Mahomes. Figure out what’s in the middle of those contracts.

I guess he wants Josh Allen type contact but he’s not quite as good.

Right. But it doesn’t matter. SOMEONE will likely pay him Josh Allen type money. If the ravens try to pay him “in the middle” they will lose him and end up starting Blake bortles.

Look at Kirk cousins. Dude was never better than a scraping top 15 QB. Yet people were (and are) tripping over themselves to pay this stiff $25-30 million a year guaranteed to just be Kirk cousins. The Vikings appear to be stuck in a serious K hole with Kirk and will be paying him huge money till the end of time to lose big games and keep their team mired in mediocrity.

Kirk cousins has never and will never win a fucking thing. So what do you think teams will dream of with Lamar Jackson - a guy with actual athletic talent?

Ravens will pay up or lose him. And nobody wants to be In the qb wilderness. It’s a horrible place.

Look at Nick Foles $88M 4 year contract with the Jags. Teams will pay crazy money for a QB.

I love when you have great low price QB like when Russ or Prescott were on rookie deals.

I like Hurts for the Eagles he’s not great but he’s making less than most backup QBs.

Interesting twist to the Watson story.

NYT reporting massueses were sometimes presented with a Texans issued NDA to sign. LMFAO at unloading that dude for 3 firsts, a third and 2 for the.

For me the LMAO is all browns.

They look like huge morons right now.

Who knows, they may look like geniuses in 6 months with Watson dropping dimes all over the field. Right now it’s looking iffy at best.

Deshaun Watson contacted 100 strangers for massages in a 17 month period. The NYT times already found 66 of them.

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/06/07/new-york-times-finds-that-deshaun-watson-met-with-at-least-66-women-for-massages-in-17-months/

If he even takes the field in 2022 I'd be surprised. He's facing 24 separate civil trials now. He did give this convincing, well written rebuttal on Instagram:

“See, the blogs can’t break me down, see, I’m the voice, I don’t reply. But the rumors y’all done heard, I’ma humbly deny, yeah, yeah.”

There are 32 teams in the NFL. Why exactly is this thread so hell-bent on talking about....the Browns?!?

They've literally never accomplished anything (unless you count pre-SB championships, but I wasn't even born for those).

Seriously, why the Browns?

They invested $230 million guaranteed and 6 draft picks on an alleged serial sex offender. And left Mayfield hanging.

Oh, I know all about Watson's alleged offenses. I just think there are 31 other teams, yet there seems to be a whole lot of chatter about a team that hasn't even sniffed a SB since, well, forever.

Jimmy G

The pride of Rolling Meadows!

Should we be talking about the Bears?

whos your team ?they suck .Change my mind.

It's the offseason, draft is over, and Watson massive contract with all the associated baggage is the biggest NFL story right now.

Would you rather hear fans of the 31 other teams pontificate on why that team will win the Super Bowl before training camp?

Welcome back Dirtbag?

It's the offseason. Nothing much to talk about. Browns and their continued idiocy will do for now.

Hurts is in the same offensive system for consecutive seasons for the first time since high school. Think about that, will he suck this year? We'll see.

Who?

And I guess I hear ya. The Watson story is big. Just seems like a lot of people around here are stuck on it.

I'm sure it will have a "Happy Ending".

It would definitely be a bit awkward around these parts if he...*cough*.....gets off without any substantial suspension.

So your are a Browns fan. No shame. Be proud and loud I say.

Ha! Yeah, not a chance. But I am definitely interested in seeing how the NFL handles this whole situation. Watson is a great talent, but he certainly has a weird kink, that's for sure.

Now it’s looking like he will never play a down again. The lawsuits keep coming.

It's more than a weird kink when he's non-consensually done that shit to over 2 dozen women. It's criminal and unethical.

The thing with the masseuses being asked to sign a Texans NDA puts a new spin on this. I gather the team was complicit until Watson demanded a trade.

First thought

And yet, if he keeps out of criminal trouble, it won't matter. A few years ago you'd be looking at 6 games bargained down to 2.

Now? Who knows. Half the season? An entire season?!

But no way are they gonna shitcan his career and totally deep root the billionaires who own the Browns without serious criminal trouble.

We've never seen the NFL have the stomach for that kind of thing.

But yes, the potential is here for this to cement this trade as the worst in NFL history. If he never plays a down, it's worse than the Herschel Walker trade by a mile.

Post 1 and he's practically yelling "rent free!!!"

LMAO

Today it’s getting tug jobs at sketchy massage parlors, next thing you know he will be pulling tags off mattresses and smoking the devils lettuce.

In all seriousness I hope he nor Baker ever play a down for the Browns ever again. Also the Ravens dicking the dog on signing Lamar, life is good for the Bengals . Keep the AFC North drama coming. It’s music to my ears. Bengals looking at 7 bye weeks per season

Hurts was the number one explosive runner last year, 8TDs rushing.

Can you guys explain to me how Debo Samuels being placed in position as a RB works?

I didn’t see a lot of SF last year but did he straight up line up in the backfield as a RB and why did that work better than a RB? Why don’t others teams put WR in the backfield and let him rush the football? Or is it a Debo Samuel specific thing?

See corderalle patterson.
