No features, no cameras, no time, ect. Its almost like Ward even from the national media is flying farrrr under the radar. Same thing happened to Gilbert in 2014, and he was drafted way higher than Manziel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must have watched him play and determined he wasn’t worth their time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard knock producer said they had plenty of footage of all the guys but it didn’t fall underneath the things like they too do. Other years or other teams He gets time on Hardknocks but this year they had baker taking over and interesting vets. I thought pepper would be on camera more and he wasn’t on there at all. Saw nothing out of Hyde even those he was the Ohio state star from a few years back. Nothing about a browns franchise hall of famer in Josh Cribbs being on the coaching staff, and etc. this browns team would of been perfect for All or Nothing this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's mainly because - based on interviews and press conferences -Â Ward comes across as a pretty mild mannered guy of few words. Basically, he wouldn't be very entertaining for a television show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats gotta be it but I feel like if they want to build some hype behind the team they could have at least given him like a 2 min spot just acknowledging him I feel like they focused far too much on 3 guys everybody knew wouldnt make the team instead of hyping up the good players on the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had a future HOFer retire and no clear successor ready to take over. I thought they would have at least mentioned that at some point, but I don't recall them ever doing so.

It was weird, feel like they missed some actual major strorylines just so they could focus on some sentimental roster cuts stories? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s as if they saw the constant shuffling and didn’t want to make Hue look (more) incompetent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They focus on roster cut guys because when it gets to week 3 and 4 they are playing a lot and you watch and watch to see if they get cut or not. Being fans of the team we know about the cuts because of reports we follow and whatever. When its over teams, we dont follow that close so we have no idea what happens during the cut downs and adds some drama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MistaBohmbastic Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Ward was a beast today. He contained AB for the most part, Revis couldn't have defended that TD any better. Very impressed with the kid, as I expected. What a debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedTheClock Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Told y'all this kid was a monster in the making. He's going to be 10x the player Bradley Chubb is supposed to be. Ward was underrated while Chubb was highly overrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
