After the bye week for Jimmy has been my hope but given there has been no update and no sign of him I am getting skeptical that is realistic.

Jimmy ready for Seattle? I’d be stunned. Has he even been seen running? I’m still trying to hold out hope that he’s back after the bye.
me too, but if we werent going to get him back until after after the bye week then we might as well have put him on i/r and designated him to return when he's ready

Just imagine what his numbers would look like without the game vs us?
his completion % being worse than luke falk is outrageous given that luke falk isnt an nfl qb

He is playing like crap and the only help for us would be if he was in the team. Too bad it won't happen.AQIB TALIB DB, LOS ANGELES RAMS
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Aqib Talib (ribs) is expected to be placed on the injured reserve list.
Talib could return later this season after spending at least eight weeks on the injured reserve. The 33 year old hasn't played 16 games in any season since entering the league in 2008. Talib was just PFF's No. 99 highest-graded CB through six weeks among 117 qualified corners.
This should be a huge help when it comes to us facing the Rams in November. He's basically out until the almost the end of the season and is guaranteed to miss the MNF game against us.

To put things in perspective:
DARIUS LEONARD
Darius Leonard admitted to questioning his playing future after missing three weeks with a concussion.
Leonard suffered a crippling headache for two-plus weeks after being concussed Week 2 against the Titans, citing a collision with Derrick Henry as the likely event that left him with the brain injury. During his time away from the team, Leonard debated his NFL future. "That’s when I really started thinking, ‘Wait a minute. Now I have a wife and kid," Leonard recalls. "I’ve had a headache for three weeks. Will I ever be the same? Do I keep playing? You have those thoughts in the back of your head." Leonard obviously is returning and has cleared the league's protocol, but it was a scary enough situation that who knows what will happen if/when he suffers another one. NFL players have certainly become more mindful of their long-term futures in recent years.

it's a really odd experience having a severe concussion
i got a bad one 13 years ago and i had migraines and blurry/wobbly vision for a couple of weeks - wasn't fully cleared to go and play sport again (the 2006 equivalent of concussion protocol lol) until 6 weeks later
would have been scary if i wasnt so out of it at the time

it's sad when players are literally talking openly about being used to having no fans there in their home stadium

And it's his stats are the very reason why BROWNS FANS are the last people to criticize Lamar.

I don't think we see what goes on inside the building to be honest. Not much is reported on injured players' recovery at all. In fact that may indeed be the plan for Jimmy to come back after the bye but we friggin' need him now!

seeing trent williams to browns as well as being nearly done also
apparently more major deals around the nfl being on their way
trade deadline being exactly 2 weeks away definitely prompting some action from nfl gms

Just as long as NE don't pick up AJ Green, I'm OK with anything.
