Browns At Buccaneers Open Thread

August 26th, 2016

bucs cheerleader 0811Welcome to Preseason Game 3. Sorry you have to watch Browns quarterback Josh McCown play football.

Joe is pumped up for this next step toward being finished with nearly meaningless preseason games.  And Joe and the Custodian of Canton, eye-RAH! Kaufman, are at the Stadium on Dale Mabry Highway eager to deliver A+ postgame coverage.

Bang it here for your thoughts on the game. What player is good; what player should be cut tomorrow; what player should get used to the bench.

Play nice. Personal fouls at not tolerated.
