    No, but he can run for 4 carries for 8 yards...

    I really don't want to get into that again. We disagree on everything anyways.

    If you think Boykin is a dumb player despite Tomlin profusely singing his praises for his "above the neck game" at his initial signing that's your opinion.

    Steelers would not have used a one year deal on a player they thought couldn't get the system and Boykin said he had it in training camp etc.

    Been down this road before but some people just believe whatever an authority tells them. It is what it is. If you think Blake deserved to see the field we have zero common ground.

    Browns released WR Dwayne Bowe.

    Ex-GM Ray Farmer laughably gave Bowe $9 million guaranteed just last year, and all the Browns got from the washed-up veteran was five catches for 53 scoreless yards. He was paid over $169,000 per yard. The move clears $3.4 million off the cap for Cleveland (not that they need it). Bowe, entering his age-32 season, may be done in the NFL. He effectively stole the Browns' money last season. Mar 16 - 3:06 PM

    I think Blake stunk, but that doesn't automatically mean that Boykin or anybody else on the roster would be better.
    I'm not a scout or have any experience with evaluating NFL talent. Sure I can form an opinion from what I see in games and read in print, but I don't get to go to practices or have any knowledge of a players understanding of the playbook. Also players ride the bench for disciplinary issues that in most cases the fans never know the real reasons.

    I tend to lean toward logic in these situations and not some conspiracy theory.
    We may never know the real reason Boykin rode the bench, but I trust the coaching staff enough to to know that whatever the reason it was probably justified.

    "We may never know the real reason Boykin rode the bench."

    Sounds like a conspiracy theory.

    Not sharing certain information is hardly a conspiracy. Lol....

    Umm 100% of conspiracies involve "not sharing information."

    Conspiracy: "A secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful."

    A big part of keeping secrets is withholding information haha.

    You're a conspiracy nut and you didn't even know it!
