I have heard some lament how few wildcat touches Josh Cribbs gets per game. With Peyton Hills' history of injuries and the mammoth workload he has undertaken in the past 5-6 games, it is now even more important to shift some of the attempts toward Cribbs. It might even be necessary to gameplan the scrubbish Thomas Clayton into the offense. The goal is for Hillis to avoid breaching the 370 touch threshold that most consider to be upper boundary regarding keeping a running back healthy season-over-season.
There have also been rumblings (have another pill Bernie) that if Mangina retains Colt McCoy as his starting QB when/if Seneca Wallace and/or Jake Delhomme are healthy, it would break the unwritten NFL rule that a player should never lose his job due to injury. Granted, I've never been in an NFL locker room, but shouldn't the only, THE ONLY, metric that determines a starter be his ability to produce wins. Some might argue that statistically, it's a toss up and that Wallace might be the better option for the rest of the season. Are the Browns going to make the playoffs? I'm not going to say no, but it's damn unlikely. Colt McCoy is now clearly the future. Any reps that he might lose due to the social graces of the league are unacceptable. If Wallace wants to whine about it, I don't care. Allow me to repeat -- I. Don't. Care. Neither should you. Neither should Mangenius. Neither should other veterans playing well enough to keep their jobs. In fact the only people this should concern are the under-performing as it might lead to a youth movement & the termination of their careers. There is no quarterback controversy at this moment. Anyone who disagrees is, with the utmost of respect, an idiot.
