Skeletor The Invincible Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 He did a good job of returning punts (minus a fumble). Prospect of him taking over for Morton and/or Thrash, who haven't done a single thing as far as punt returns go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 I think Morton is done. Not saying Brown is Dante Hall, but between Betts/Thrash/Brown, Morton is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phat Hog Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 I agree. Morton was a waste anyway - another Brunell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubba9497 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 if he didn't fumble we may have had a chance for another fg attempt. looked good on the other returns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDSKNfaithfull Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 If he holds on to the ball on that ONE play we would all be raving about him. He is a very good return man that should be given a very long and hard look. He would be a lot cheaper than Morton:doh: How much did our brilliant FO give the ST ace:puke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right its not his fault our FO has no logic:doh: He is a great player but not worth 1/3rd of the cash he recieved. We would be better off with out him and his Cap hit though.

bricucci Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 There is a reason Buffalo cut him. The guy has super speed but can't break tackles will fumble like that quite often and is no good in traffic. Hes as good as Morton for less money. But Shaun King is as good as Mark Brunnell for alot less money as well. Do you get my drift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The X-Factor Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Brown showed some flashes but you simply CANNOT fumble the ball in that situation. I think he can be a decent returner if he is given more rep at the position. As for Morton, he needs to go. We cannot pay a returner the money he is earning. We could use that cash on other areas of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor The Invincible Posted December 27, 2004 Author Share Posted December 27, 2004 He looked good in traffic today. I don't see that criticism. The best thing that I think he did that our other returner don't do is that he moved upfield when he caught the ball. He didn't dance around and look, he immediately moved. I like him.

jtyler42 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Brown looked 100 times better than he did last week he just needs to hold on to the ball... He looked quicker and more decisive than Morton ever was, no dancing just one cut and up the field the way a punt is supposed to be ran... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 cut Morton, keep Brown, just dotn fumble again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clark84 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Brown, minus the fumble did play well. But, unfortunately he will and should be criticized for the fumble. He shows alot of wiggle and quickness and seems to catch the ball well. Morton is not a natural punt returner anyways, there is a big difference between the two. That being said, it would not hurt my feelings a bit if Morton isn't brought back next year. Brown deserves another shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondie Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 He was the spark we needed. He has flash. He can move and juke and make runs. But, the fumble turned the tide. It really did. It gave a spark to the boys........when we had them circling the drain. Blondie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big#44 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 hes only in his second year, so the fumble i'll count to inexperience (dont try and tell me otherwise!) he did superb on punt returns today 14.8 avg I think we need to put him on KR as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montilar Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Brown comes back next year. Morton doesn't (too expensive.) but Brown gets a ton of competition. Whoever is the returner has to EARN it. Brown's had his fumble; another and he's cut. That fumble eliminated any good will he earned with the good return.

mookie0720 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Brown looked much better than Morton ever did, for a small percentage of the price, there's no way we keep Morton over him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mania Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 I believe I remember reading on this board that Brown has 4.18 speed. If that is the case we should take a really hard look at Brown vs. Morton. For some reason I feel Morton will succeed on this team, but we may not be able to afford him. If that is the case Antonio Brown may be a vialble option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
