Anyone notice Poppinga constantly being in the backfield with pressure? I think he is drinking some of Matthews muscle milk. He also had a nice pass breakup

He did lok good when I noticed him. He was on his way to sacking Seneca Wallace but got held by the RT a little on the second Browns TD. (See 1:10 in this clip)-

I find it funny how little some of you know about football....

Ryan Grant fumbles one time in the first preseason game after not fumbling once last season running the ball and now you guys want a rookie to start over him. ::roll:

Look at the basics. The Packers had 2 QB's and a slappy and the Browns had 4 QB's. The Browns are better built for preseason.

Harrell is a learning project that will play more than a 1/3 of the preseason snaps.

Over half of a preseason game does not translate to the regular season.

There's a difference between football knowledge and over reacting.

Also, speaking on football knowledge, Grant fumbled once last year and it was lost. Therefore, your comment is incorrect. Is that irony?


All being a dick aside, we don't expect Ryan to be the sexy runner, breaking off a 50 plus yarder every game, or taking a screen pass 80 yards, or running through three potential blockers.... we don't expect that. We do expect him to hold onto the ball, as he's proven very stout at doing and get 4 or 5 fives a carry.

The fumble he had against the Browns, was not his fault. It was an excellent hit on the ball. Sure, he could have protected a little better, but its not as if Grant was careless and that's why the ball was knocked out.


Brandon, hopefully you'll post more, but without the attempts at insulting the members are not scared to share their thoughts. :)

I said he did not have one fumble last season running the ball. His fumble can on a reception against the Bengals. Maybe you should stop being so sensative. I wasnt trying to insult them, I just find it funny how they think a rookie would do better than Grant.

Jennings had that awesome td, I'm a little skeptical of Grant's condition though, I hope he can manage to recuperate!

Like Foster said, Twinkie overreacts a little or just totally hates Grant. We have a couple of members like that. Tromadz comes to mind. Some people just don't like Grant's style. He doesn't fumble, but he doesn't do anything spectacular either. He's like the VW of running backs. Solid, dependable, but not flashy.

I'm a huge Quinn Porter fan and I liked what I saw in this game when he got the chance to actually carry or catch the ball, but I'm not calling for him to start over Grant. Or Jackson for that matter. I would love for him to make the team as the 3rd string RB. Which might result in 2nd string, as Jackson has a tendency to get hurt sooner or later.

Lastly, if there's one position where a rookie could take over for a veteran, it's at the RB position. Just look at all these guys coming into the league the last few years. There's not that much of an adjustment period as there is with WR, DT, DE etc. Steve Slaton, Chris Johnson, Adrian Peterson, Knowshon Moreno, LDT etc. Even Ryan Grant was as close to a rookie as you can get without actually being one. Most were high draft picks, but they did make more of an impact than most players on other positions.

I'm not expecting Quinn Porter to take over the starting spot, but if he actually gets a chance, he could very well be our Tashard Choice this year.

Your right, I should have said I find it funny that some think Lumpkin or Porter would be better starters than Grant because RBs can def. make a impact their rookie season.
