How the Browns' trade for AJ McCarron fell apart

[Whatever]

So much for the build up for the 50th Anniversary season, folks.

The season is pretty much already lost.  We're 3-4, have 2 losses in the division, and just barely beat a wretched Colts team without their starting QB and a bunch of other key players.  The players are already disinterested, the effort isn't there, guys are spouting off in the media, and it's painfully obvious Marvin has lost this team.  Adding an OL isn't going to fix all those issues, and honestly, the whole line needs rebuilt.  If the rest of the line was good or even average, and one guy was putred, it would make more sense.  They gambled on the youngsters, and they haven't stepped up.
