The telling thing in the whole Freeman mess is none of his teammates have said much to defend or stick up for him...especially the WRs on the team.

Bills and Browns in dire need of a QB due to injuries. If Freeman isnt picked up it speaks volumes and tells me there may be off the field issues here.

Oh he'll get picked up. Some team will be intrigued and think they can get him to produce. The Raiders are a likely landing spot for him since he would be reunited with Greg Olson. Maybe the Vikes too

Good Riddance.

Now we just need to struggle the rest of the season, hopefully go 0-16 (unless the Giants find a way of duplicating that effort too) And start all over again, presumably without Schiano or Dominik.

From what I can surmise, they thought David Wilson could step up and fill Andre Brown's role as the #1 RB. And they clearly thought wrong. They have no running game (whenever you are working out Willis Mcgahee, you got it bad) and thus Eli is pressured all game. The DEF is worn out by halftime.

I'm sure there are some Gints fan that can elaborate.


It is already a forgettable season in so many ways. I'm (obviously) a Skins fan, the wife is a Steelers fan, and we are both Buccaneers fans.

Collectively our teams are 1-11. The stars aligned for us and all three teams mercifully were on a bye this weekend. First pleasant Sunday since Labor day weekend

Injuries have comprimised the offensive line. That's the biggest problem the offense faces. There are no lanes for the RB's also Eli has to run for his life on many plays. That being said, he has used some poor judgement on some of his passes this year. Unfortunatley thats more of a by-product of them trying to crawl out of large holes every game and just make something happen.

Defensively they get very little pressure on QB's. Justin Tuck and JPP just look slow/injured at times. They also have maybe the worst LB corb in the history of the NFL. Opposing QB's have all day to throw against a injury plagued secondary that was at best, was medicore when fully healthy.

Special Teams has been pretty woeful also this season. Missing FG's, giving up PR touchdowns and Weatherford struggling while punting hasn't helped things.

There hasn't been one aspect where they have been solid, so far this season.

And yet they are still alive in that division if you look at it.

The year to go 0-fer is next year, imo, and grab Winston from FSU with the top pick. Luck was more "NFL ready", but man o man can this Winston kid play!

i'd stick with weeden over freeman if i were the browns. I can't imagine they would think differently.

he'll be signed this week. off field issues and all. be patient.

I would also stick with Weeden but i would think Freeman as a backup would give you a chance to win more than who is backing up Weeden at this point. Dont forget he is fresh off the injury list.
