I'm pretty disappointed the kid is even in the program, but I am very happy there is nothing surrounding PED's involved.

Hopefully this is just a miscommunication and he doesn't miss any games.

Another flag for the Broncos...dude needs to get his head straight and quickly.

Broncos linebacker Von Miller, already facing an appeal hearing with league officials Thursday over a four-game suspension for violating the league's substance-abuse policy, was arrested Sunday on an outstanding traffic warrant.

Team officials confirmed Miller was arrested Sunday at the Centennial Gun Club, a facility that's near the Broncos' practice facility in south suburban Denver. Miller was arrested for failing to appear for a court appearance from an October traffic stop in which he was charged with careless driving, driving without a license and no proof of insurance.

I'm really surprised at all of this. Felt good about Miller as a responsible, mature person on his draft day.

Sure, there's a lot worse going on in the grand scheme with pro athletes, but the irresponsibility is more than troubling.

Reason for hope in Browns Nation?

Brandon Weeden shines in Cleveland Browns' 24-6 victory over Lions, but Barkevious Mingo and Dion Lewis injured

http://www.cleveland.com/browns/inde...vs_browns.html

In his six preseason possessions, Weeden has produced two field goals, three touchdown passes and a stadium full of excited, cheering, hooting, hollering fans.

The New New New New New New Thing

Yet another franchise reboot—call it Browns 6.0—and yet more promises to build a contender in Cleveland. Why should we believe this time?

Great article once again by King.

I had no idea that the Browns owner is facing RICO charges though...that is not good for a franchise that needs some stability at the top as much as anything.

I'm his biggest fan, but Tebow is just wasting reps for the other 10 guys on the field at the moment. He's been let down a couple times by his teammates but he can't sustain a drive and has less touch than usual on his passes. The one thing he has shown immense improvement in is his pocket presence. He's standing in the pocket and actually scanning the field.

Edit: When he takes off and runs he is a fierce runner. Still think he could make an impact as a power HB or FB.

Tebow's line last night, against 3rd stringers: 1/7, -1 yards, 1 INT, QBRating of 0.0. Great competitor, great leader, terrible quarterback. Tebow isn't a slight fix, its a total reclamation project. He needs 2-4 full seasons of development to be what resembles an effective NFL QB. Or he needs to switch positions and give up the QB dream. I don't even think he should bother with the CFL, he cannot make those throws.

Yikes, Derek Wolfe being taken off the field in an ambulance. Hope it's precautionary and he's ok.

Anyone see that controversial hit by D.J. Swearinger on Dustin Keller last night? Dustin Keller suffered a serious knee injury and is now out for the season, D.J. Swearinger said he hit low because he was afraid of being fined for hitting high.
