Why the Cleveland Browns should look at Tebow

Why the Browns Should Look at Tebow So if you were wondering, yes this is legit. Tim Tebow may not be the permanent solution but, for the 0-8 Browns it is a damn good temporary one. Over the past season and a half the Browns are 1-23 and are a disgrace as an organization. They have passed on players like Deshaun Watson, Carson Wentz, and Dak Prescott in the last two drafts. The Browns have changed starting quarterbacks 20 different times in the last 43 games. Now the argument for Tebow… Kizer has thrown two more picks (11) in the last 8 games then Tebow (9) has thrown in his career. Tebow doesn’t just get it done with his arm, he is also a mobile threat. In the 9 games he played with the Denver Broncos in the 2010 season he had more rushing touchdowns (6) then the Browns running backs have through the first 8 games this season (5). Tim Tebow would be the first Browns starting quarterback that owns a career playoff win since Jake Delhomme who started 4 games in the 2010 seaso...

Deshaun Watson Injury Shakes Up the NFL

     One day after the Houston Astros won the World Series in game 7, their star qb, Deshaun Watson of the Texans, went down with a non contact ACL injury, ending his historic rookie year. With Deshaun Watson now head to IR, along for the ride is the hopes of a playoff run for the Texans. Watson was doing more for this team in the half of a season he played than any Texans QB from the past 5 years. Watson is tied for the lead in passing touchdowns with 19 and is coming off a game in which he shredded the vaunted Seahawks defense. In that game, he became the first player EVER to put up over 400 passing yards, 4 tds, and over 50 rushing yards. The Texans have relied on their defense for the past few years, but after injuries to Watt and Mercilus, the Texans offense was forced to step up and did so in a major way under the lead of Watson. His injury all but crushes any hopes the Texans had of seeing the postseason.            Wats...

The Return of Josh Gordon

If you were to google this headline, I'm sure you would find at least a dozen articles about this story, but all different seasons. Could this finally be the year Josh Gordon makes his triumphant return to the National Football League? The 26 year old receiver hasn't touched the field since the 2014 season. He's super talented, making the pro bowl in 2013, but his career has been derailed by a crippling drug problem. I was a big Josh Gordon fan, always keeping up with the news to see if it's worth making a waiver claim for him in fantasy. I drafted this guy last year and really expected a return in the 2016 season. After Gordon checked himself into rehab, I gave up, and thought for sure that marked the end of his career. Then he goes and drops that video this year pouring his heart out to the internet, trying to come back. Well it activated what little sympathy the commissioner had and they decided to reinstate him. It's conditional, though, which means he won...
