Browns don’t regret decision to pass on Wentz and ride with RGIII

On Sunday, he’ll be a play away from facing the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2 of the regular season. “Josh McCown is as good a person as I’ve ever met anywhere”.

“Carson’s the type of quarterback that he’s going to give you a shot and you better be ready”, Agholor said.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jordan Matthews sees the road to the playoffs as a series of baby steps that requires measured excitement in light of how the promising 2015 season went awry.

The franchise’s 25th starting quarterback since 1999, Griffin, who signed with the Browns as a free agent in March in hopes of reviving a career that fizzled in Washington, got hurt while trying to run out of bounds. He struggled in the preseason – he took two safeties in the opener – and was supposed to be allowed to develop while watching from the sideline. The list includes a twice-torn ACL and a dislocated ankle that caused him to miss six games in 2014. “I knew the ball was coming so I just kind of slow played it and let him read the front side”. The bottom line is that I got to know him a little bit through that.

“For him, it’s just the confidence is knowing the plays”, Graham said of Wentz (278 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTs in his National Football League debut on Sunday) on Wednesday’s 94WIP Morning Show. I did bad on this.

He added: “Cam is working at it, I’m sure”.

“Gotta practice”, Jackson said. “It sounds awesome. We got zero yards out of any of those hits”. They picked up another guy, Kevin Hogan from Stanford. He’s third on the depth chart. RG-III is the fifth consecutive Browns quarterback not to throw a touchdown pass in his first start. To add extra sweetness to the victory, the Eagles had acquired the pick used to draft Wentz from Cleveland, a team with a historically terrible quarterback situation. However if you listened to 94.1 WIP Sports Radio Monday morning after the Eagles defeated the Cleveland Browns 29-10, you might hear that more than you would think.

“The play happened, and you just got to move on from it”, Griffin said Sunday. With great promise, Wentz had a big game throwing for 278 yards with two touchdowns.

Wentz will see certain formations created to rattle him, and it’s job of the Eagles staff to do the best they can to prepare him for anything that will be thrown the rookie’s way.

“You can’t think that way, ” he said. “We embrace the opportunity to go out there and maybe do something that people don’t think we can do”. You can’t take that way from anybody at any level of competition. “You obviously have a problem evaluating quarterbacks in that organization”. Center Cameron Erving snapped the football right over RG-3’s head deep in their own territory. It’s been a persistent problem, and Jackson was asked how many more chances Erving gets. It’s embarrassing, and it’s not right. “I don’t anticipate that changing this time around”.

“This is where I can step in and help him and protect him and keep him out of that and keep him focused”, said Pederson.

Right guard John Greco is the backup center and sympathizes with Erving, the No. 19 pick past year.

“He’s pretty damn impressive”, Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said Thursday. “It’s just part of our every-day business”. I’m in pain, but it will be OK, just have to monitor it.

“He’s a strong-willed guy”. God-willing, I’ll be able to come back this year and play.

Like we said nearly everyone is impressed by what they saw from the Bismarck native.
