I'm confused. Did it come out that Gilbert has some specific "issue" other than being an idiot? If so I was honestly unaware.
I wonder if Gilbert could be like Brandon Marshall? Remember how he was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder? Who knows, maybe Gilbert is depressed, bi-polar, etc.

@Huber posted: Pettine was asked if he had a better handle on what led to the 23-year-old's struggles both on and off the field. Was it a poor attitude and lack of professionalism? "It's more than that," the coach said. "I don't want to get into it. It's very personal and I'm not going to get into details about it."

Ray Farmer also spoke on a personal issue hampering Gilbert. This was also mentioned earlier in the thread by @Binkster
What else is necessary? I don't need to know the issue to believe that there is one.
^ Top notch take right there.
Or, and I'm sure none of you considered this ... this is just one big giant excuse to save face.
I honestly don't think many have... That's a pretty damning thought and is a stretch, IMO. Not that the Browns deserve the benefit of the doubt..
Just think that if the Browns were publicly making stuff up about a player's personal life, the player/ the player's agent would not allow it to sit out there...
the self-fulfilling prophecy that everything is all bad all the time.
The fans aren't the ones fulfilling it. The Browns are.
We're just here to assess the situation, and based on history, safely assume they're fucking up.
