In the latest episode of the team’s continual inability to properly address its quarterback situation, the Browns reportedly failed to complete a deal for the Bengals’ AJ McCarron just as the league’s deadline arrived at 4 p.m. Tuesday. The Browns reportedly appealed to the league to allow the deal, which would have sent 2018 second- and third-round picks to the Bengals, to go through but were denied. In any event, this will go down as just another not-so-great moment in Browns history, specifically its history with quarterbacks. Cleveland is now 0-8, tied with the 49ers for the worst record in the NFL, this after going 1-15 last year. Little wonder, then, that some internet observers felt that McCarron was lucky to have barely avoided being thrust into such a dysfunctional situation.
