Browns lose DT Taylor to chest injury

[steelreserve]

Ouch. I feel bad for the guy, because that's a pretty lousy injury at a time when he could've really been getting his career rolling.

On the other hand - lol, Browns. Can they ever catch a break? Guess they have one more hurdle to clear before they have that "massive improvement."

BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns have a massive hole to plug on their defensive line.

Run-stopping tackle Phil Taylor will be out for months, and maybe for the season with a torn chest muscle. Taylor tore his left pectoral muscle lifting weights Thursday and needs surgery, a potentially devastating blow to Cleveland's defense.

What's with all the muscle tears? Is there something missing from their diet?

[Edman]

Cursed.

If Taylor wants to get treatment, he better go elsewhere for risk of staph.

Tiny muscle tears are good. Big ones not so much...

What's up with these achilles tendons too.

It used to be hamstrings and knees at TC. I remember Art Monk used to warm up for 90 minutes before a workout, stretching and everything. He was good and lasted a long time in the NFL.

I used to always think the curse thing in Cleveland was bullshit, just an excuse. I live in Cleveland, so I hear it a lot.

But with all the bad breaks Cleveland teams have had between injuries, bad calls, and bad bounces....maybe they really are cursed.
