I don't think his comments absolve himself of blame. But if people want to find something to nit pick, it easy when a person doesn't give canned answers.

He had two weeks to craft his message. He was a communications/marketing major. He knows how to brand himself. And in all his comments I could find, there was no trace of the acknowledgement of self limitations/failings. Simply self aggrandizement, and commitment to future (which when made without reflections are fairly useless). Now, his comments about the team and future might give Browns fans hope, except he made the same pronouncements here, but didn't follow up - because he doesn't seem to acknowledge where his weaknesses are. An example from his statement:

he gives himself a perfect in right here to make a self reflective statement: and when it comes to what I need to work on,
like my drop backs or like pocket presence, I'm excited...
But he doesn't do that, he deflects any thought of his faults and makes it sound like he didn't have an opportunity to grow, this from a guy who was the named starter for the first 3 + years of his career.
