Browns waive kicker Cundiff

  • Print

BEREA, Ohio (AP)—No longer needed, kicker Billy Cundiff(notes) has been waived by the Cleveland Browns.

Cundiff filled in while Phil Dawson(notes) missed five games with a pulled right calf muscle. Cundiff made all six field-goal tries for the Browns (1-7).

Dawson returned for last week’s game against Chicago and had his extra point blocked in a 30-6 loss to the Chicago Bears.

The Browns also waived defensive back Anthony Madison(notes).

Cleveland has a bye this week and hosts Baltimore in a Monday night game on Nov. 16.

    Hey, "Big T", we're not the team who LOST 16 STRAIGHT GAMES LAST YEAR. We are gonna walk all over Detroit when we play against them this year. If I was you, I would shut my mouth.

    Let's face it. Talent is not all physical. Some players are just too dumb to learn or remember a playbook. That's why Mangini wants smart players.

    Mr. Commoon Sense? Really? You must have named yourself. Stop harpping on the past. We are talking about today Richard Cranium., not 25 years ago. And thanks for confirming what I said. Your Mom's did buy you NFL blankets and Underoo's. What a joke. But it's nice to know that even wusses like you can enjoy a manly sport such as this. Take your 148 lb. body and stupid comments and shut uppp! Richard Cranium !

    Hey RandyT Post 55: Thats right weasel dick. We grew up in Pittsburgh, Detroit, Los Angeles, and Dallas. We all had Football / Baseball stuff. While we were growing up, Pittsburgh was winning super Bowls, Dallas was winning super bowls, Detroit was winning World Series / NBA Championships and Los Angeles was winning World Series / NBA Championships. What was Cleveland winning:
    1. Cyahoga river caught fire
    2. City went bankrupt
    3. Sea World left Cleveland
    4. Browns left Cleveland

    I wonder how much people have to drink before they post their comments that make no sense. John C...Rod Hood was not a good player. He got toasted by Kerry Collins of all people. Then he signed with Chicago for like 2 minutes and then was released. Obviously not a good player as he's been cut by several teams in the past year.

    I don't know why people can't just let the team start playing regular season games before they start talking smack. The coach is smart for not showing all his cards before the regular season starts. I don't care who the starting quarterback is as long as the team is good with the decision and his teammates are on board with the choice. Everyone was a huge Derek Anderson fan before last year and then you jumped all over him when the team imploded around him last year.

    I think it's also hilarious that people were calling for Bill Cowher to come in and use his strict disciplinarian approach to turn the franchise around. Just because Mangini doesn't have the sneer of Cowher doesn't mean he's not smart enough to turn this team around. The team definitely needed discipline and these guys don't need to be coddled anymore, it's time for them to man up and play some freakin football!!

    Everyone take notice! There must be only one reason so many fans from other teams are in here telling us things that we TRUE FANS have lived with, and acknowledged, since our Fathers taught us to love and root for the home team, is their afraid of us. If you're afraid, say you're afraid. Wusses !!
    You probably live in Ind. and are a true Pitts-Puke fan. Or South Detroit and love the Cowboys because their America's team and your Mom bought you a Cowboys Bedspread when you were a kid. So put on your Pitts-Puke underoo's and Cowboy's T-Shirt, get in bed, turn off the lights and shut the #%$& up !! High five's from all the Browns fans !!!

    The problem is though all Cleveland did was trade one Bill Belicheat hack (Crennell) for another (Mangini)--of course Magini knows whom his QB is going to be and my money says it's Quinn, but let's be real about this for a second...when Mangini went 10-6 in 2006 he did so with basically Herm Edward's team. Chrebet retired and Magini installed the 3-4 while drafting Ferguson and Mangold. A 4-12 season put him on the hot seat and a 1-4 finish last year was the final nail in the coffin. Sure he steps into a better situation in the Dawg Pound--the 3-4 is already in place and all he needs to do is tweak the scheme and the roster a bit. On the O side, Kellen Winslow is now a Buc which is a loss yes but not a huge one and Edwards' days are numbered as a Brown......my problem with Mangini is he believes his own hype and thinks he's Bill Belichump...but he's not. The NFL is a players league--we go to the games and watch the games on TV to hoot and holla for our team and our boy...Mangini seems to think it's all about him and all about his power and all about his ego...which is why he won't last much, if any, longer in Cleveland than he did in NY all the while watching a better coordinator and coach, Rex Ryan, make the noise in the AFC East he (Mangini) never could...

    No crap that he knows who the QB is. There is nothing here to devalue. Its the brown's for God sake. 4 days from the season start and the team doesn't even know who the QB is. Why is it that all the haters are the one's that think they know everything and have a comment for everybody. Go hate on your own team for once and see the responce you get. I don't even like the browns and get dumb ass responces.

    Do you guys really believe Mangini doesn't know who his quarterback is? Just because he isn't telling you or the media doesn't mean he doesn't have a plan. Why devalue one of the qb's just to satisfy you idiots? The team knows who their quarteback is and that's all that counts. As far as Rod Hood goes this is his third team in 1 year, he must be really great!

    You know its all fine that the Browns are working on the roster, but what they really need to do is name the starting QB. I'm not even a Brown's fan, but I think this will be the true test of their new coach. See if he can take team that has hit rock bottom and bring them up to atleast a .500 team. Doubtfull for this year, but not impossible.

    More castoffs from loser teams going to the ultimate loser team / fanchise - Cleveland. By the way, Mangini will be naming his starting Quarterback by Thanksgiving. Give us all an early X-mas presnet, Browns. Fold up you less than Raider Franchise and go to the UFL. There, you might make the playoffs.

    THIS IS YOUR FOOTBALL TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....GUTLESS BROWNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Moving on: Hood, who signed a one-year deal with the Bears on Tuesday after the Browns cut him Monday, was not upset he was left off the final roster. It was a much better parting than with the Browns.

    Hood said he was happy to get away from Cleveland because he didn't feel he was treated like a man.

    He was upset with the Browns' decision to fine him $1,700 for missing a weigh-out session.

    "As a man you need to hold yourself accountable, and I don't need anybody behind your back every time, and that's what it was," Hood said. "You couldn't even go to the bathroom there without being fined."
