all right hair on fire, hows this for interesting...you won't find a picture of Marvin Lewis' wife Patty on the internet no matter how hard you look...you can find his house, his car, his kids, his college roomate, his mom, and his high school coach, but no Patti...at least I can't find her...i think stewart is more on the hotseat that kelly...am i wrong?

Look at Dickerson's performance over the past three seasons...2 games, 3 catches. I'm sorry, but I don't see what he might have that our existing TEs lack. Plus Schobel, Kelly, and Stewart already know the offense. They're not great, but they're not bad enough to lose their job to this guy.

That is odd, but I've seen Patty on the NFL Network special featuring the Browns and the Bengals about how a team prepares during the week. Lots of shots of Marvin in the kitchen and dining room with the wife. Trust me, she exists.

And I agree, Stewart is probably sitting on a hotter seat than Kelly.

Welcome.

Dickerson will have plenty of time to learn the offense, and he's a 3 year BACKUP. He hasn't had a chance, and if we are picking him up, it's because Carson said "Coach, I know this guy, he can help protect me and catch the ball."

We have seven tight ends going into camp for a reason. NONE of them are safe.

I agree...when you put yourself in a position where the team can look at the entire position and say...I could get rid of any of these guys...nobody is safe. I'm not saying you're smart next big thing...I'm just saying you could be right on this one...I still say I could clean the floor with you in an eating contest...and you have the gall to use the word Big in your name :P

Dickerson is cannon folder brought in only for workouts during camp when you need extra bodies. If he makes the squad it will be the practice squad. Only way he's active is if there are injuries.

But all of our TEs need to go.

big Orange, you are one sick puppy.
