we replaced that medical staff...

This was a smart move ***** about pressly but we need as many days as possible to get ready for the steelers so delaying this would have only hurt.

I hope this was sarcasm.

If not, that is the most ignorant statement I have ever seen on here.

A string of bad luck and a couple bad coaches.... destroy a franchise can.

Glad to see the signing, liked Connor coming out of college. I feel like he might be a better version of Pressley once he gets up to speed, think he is slightly more mobile/athletic but without any drop off in run blocking.

hes new here, i see him jumping offsides, and getting a holding call sunday. thats what happens when you bring a new guy in this late. i would have went with orlson charles, he has a ton more experience. to throw this guy in a hugh game like this, i just feel he will be a liability.hope not.

i do not know anything about john connor. is he a really good player for his position??
we need a stud blocker as the stoolers will be bringing it all day.hope this dude is in shape, if not he will get killed. the stoolers will test him right away.this game is going to be hard to win if our team doesn't change it up and show them something totally different and throw them off their game.we cannot play them like usual. they will beat us for sure. must outthink them and show them plays they have never seen. make it work.!!!!

It's the truth. This organization was in dire straits financially when Mike took over and he was dealing with IRS lawsuits after the death of Paul Brown.

I like this pickup.

Pressley has been playing very good this year though, might be a tall order to think Connor will come in and just replace him with no fall off.

I want to stand corrected on john connor. i believe i misjudged him earlier in another post.i have since been reading some on him and this is a super pickup. this guy is a player and just wants to win like the rest of our players.give him this week to practice and i think and hope he will be fine. i know this, this game coming up for him is not too big for him.i mean he played in new york city with crazy rex ryan. this guy is happy to be at home, hes a nati man. this guy is going to be fun to watch.another thing i would like to say. regardless how this season ends, i am so stoked about this team going into next year.we are going to be crazy good if we can keep zimmer and jay in the house.the talent on this team is scary good.keep everyone healthy and look out NFL.i believe ben and the stoolers are going to see a team that is not afraid and is hungry and will BRING IT ALL DAY!!!! FIELD GOAL WINS THIS GAME. JOSH BROWN---MVP!!!!
