  • Banner strikes again

    * All of you Joe Banner haters out there will enjoy this story. Offensive lineman John Moffitt said the Browns, where Banner is the CEO, intentionally failed him on his physical last month when he wouldn't agree to a pay cut after being traded by Seattle to the Browns. "I haven't said this publicly - they suck; Cleveland sucks," Moffitt said this week in an interview with 710 ESPN Seattle. "They are so terrible and the way that they did me in that front office is so dirty. They failed me on a physical." Because he failed the Browns' physical, the trade was voided. Shortly after that, the Seahawks dealt him to Denver where - surprise, surprise - he passed his physical with flying colors. The Browns have denied Moffitt's claims. Last week, Moffitt abruptly retired, saying he didn't enjoy playing football anymore.

    * Juan Castillo is under fire again. The Eagles' former longtime offensive-line coach and short-time defensive coordinator is John Harbaugh's run-game coordinator in Baltimore. Problem is the Ravens haven't been able to run a lick this season. They're 30th in the league in rushing yards per game (73.1) and dead last in yards per carry (2.8). Ray Rice, a 1,000-yard rusher in each of the last four seasons and a guy with a 4.5 yard-per-carry career average entering this season, has just 289 yards and is averaging 2.5 yards per carry. Well, at least he got a Super Bowl ring.

    I saw an article yesterday where Moffitt blasts the NFL and American Corporations in general. He didn't really say much though. Sounds like we'll here more from him.

      that failed physical is vintage banner.

      the castillo bit is kind of irrelevant. when a team can't run the ball, it's not because of their "run-game coordinator." that's just harbaugh giving his buddy a cushy job.

              I'll never forget Banner made Jon Runyan take a pay cut to stay in Phila. before the expiration of his contract. Jon Runyan! Banner did it because he could. I'm sure he put the extra $500,00 or so of cap space to good use.

                Since Moffitt retired, it appears the Browns made a wise decision unless they were just looking to dump salary.

                Banner is a genius.
