Fox Sports' Mike Lombardi said the Browns will "go hard after" Jimmy Garoppolo this offseason.
Lombardi has worked for both organizations recently, so this is likely not just idle chatter. "I think Cleveland understands, Hue Jackson specifically understands he needs a quarterback. I think they’ll be very aggressive," Lombardi said. "I think Jimmy Garoppolo’s on top of their list, and I think they’ll go hard after him." With Tom Brady showing no signs of slowing down and Garoppolo set to be a free agent in 2018, it makes sense for the Patriots to move the young quarterback this offseason. The Browns have the picks to make a big move if Garoppolo is really their guy. Even though this is a weak draft class for quarterbacks, there could be quite a few interesting options available in free agency and on the trade block this spring.
I think Garoppolo ends up either in Cleveland or Chicago. It's a much better outcome than having the black quarterback Watson or potentially the one of the most overrated prospects I can recall in Kizer getting anointed the starter for the next 4 years once drafted. I bolded the weak draft class for QBs because at the beginning of the year they were all hyping up this year's class. Trubisky would be smart to declare this year. Next year's class should be much deeper at the QB position. I can only hope that Brady remains healthy though if Jimmy is moved as I cannot stand the fact they have a black quarterback on their roster.

Jackson might have looked like a more brilliant mind because of the "Red Rifle". Jackson has had two opportunities now to be a head coach and he seems as bad as any head coach in NFL history. His hitching his star to the Gremlin will probably seal his fate or at best have him on the proverbial hot seat early in the 17'. Seeing Gremlin charge into the defensive back of the Eagles all but sums of the stupidity of starting him.....
Ps. Skip "The Gimp" Bayless even stated this...ROFLMAO.... Also Shannon "Black Panther" Sharpe is giving up on Bob Griffin.......

Jeff Fisher fired!
I can't say I am an expert insider knowledge on the college recruitment stars rating racket, but just my observations over the years I can guess at least that is where whites are squeezed out of the game. So no Joey Bag of Donuts coach or GM will be fired for assembling a team of busts if those busts have the stars from the recruitment process, for losing games yes they eventually get fired.
Back in 88 my buddy's HS team was going deep into the playoffs of small school football and from reading the papers it was all because of a Magical Negro RB. So I finally go see them play in the semi-finals to see what the hype is. Well the hype was fast, he had measurables but he absolutely could not break an arm tackle that your grandmother could put him down. But he still got a full ride to Kansas where they finally figured out Mr. 5 Stars was not a RB so they converted him to CB and he sucked there as well. What made my buddy's HS team so good was their white FB who crushed it up the middle and if you spread out to contain Hype he would gash it for 10 yards at a crack. I told my buddy the FB was much better than Hype and he said everyone on the team knew that but the powers to be promoted Hype to the exclusion of a great white football player.

Scooby Wright signed by Arizona off of Cleveland's practice squad.

Why he wasn't signed off of Cleveland's practice to their active roster along time ago is beyond me.

Just saw the Cardinals cut Michael Floyd after he was arrested for dui. Not sure if he amounts to a full blown bust because he was fairly productive but funny none the less.

So is it to early to say the MVP race is Brady's to lose despite missing four games?!
Matt Ryan has to be given serious consideration. He's been fantastic this season and little was expected of the Falcons.

For me toss up between Brady and Ryan as my first picks. I'd have Stafford and Rodgers in conversation as well.

I think Carr should be at the top of the mvp list as well.

It should be Brady but I have a feeling either Elliot or Prescott will win the award if the Cowboys finish atop the NFC. The writers will hold the 4 game suspension against Brady. Of course there's a theory that either Cowboy will split the MVP vote and one will win the consolation award of ROY.

Hopefully he gets to play on defense. Minter is an average starter, but I doubt his job is in jeopardy.
The Cardinals are one of those teams that use an in-the-box safety in place of a linebacker. Maybe they will try a more traditional defensive look with Wright.
Not sure why that 3rd safety thing has become such a fad lately; you would think any offensive coordinator with a half a brain would direct all run plays right at that safety.

Fat Rex is out. Whaley looks to be made of Teflon though and will be staying in Buffalo according to this report. What a joke.

Another example of Black Privilege the NFL thrives on.

Gus Bradley has been fired from the Jaguars.
I think the Chargers fire their ass bag of a head coach as do the Bills with Fat Rex.

According to BSPN it was Gus Bradley's loyalty to Bortles that got him fired: http://www.espn.com/blog/jacksonvil...e-bortles-one-of-things-that-cost-him-his-job
It's not the poor running game, bad o-line play, the drops by WRs and TEs and the bad defense that was supposedly Bradley's expertise.

The irony, the least worst thing about their offence is Bortles...
"Hey our o-line is cancer, our WR's cant catch a cold, our defence consists of an aging Pozlusny and eh, nothing else...... lets draft a black LB with the build of a safety, oh and with a bum knee, 36th overall"
*You're fired for sticking with a QB who has shown promise*
The caste system is hilarious

Looks like Savage is the starter now for Houston and Bortles might be done in Jacksonville potentially paving the way for another black quarterback.

Marcus Rush signed off the 49ers PS by the Jaguars - his racial apprenticeship has lasted almost 2 full seasons so far.

Marrone likes Bortles. I think Marrone has a legitimate shot of becoming Jaguars HC. He did a solid job in Buffalo unfortunately butting heads with Dougtavious Whaley over Ebony Jenkum Manuel and other factors. I just think his OC Hackett has underachieved in the league as an OC. Marrone should call the plays.
