It’s unclear if Adam Jones ever found Terrelle Pryor in that garbage can he was shaking after the game Sunday.

But Pryor may find himself in his own coach’s doghouse, after Browns coach Hue Jackson said he wants his young wide receiver to keep his composure during games.

In addition to his jaw-flapping with Jones, Pryor was seen barking at Robert Griffin III after they had to burn a timeout late in the game, and in recent weeks has called out teammates for their blocking and gotten into heated conversations with Jackson and assistant Pep Hamilton on the sidelines.

“I have a relationship with Terrelle and there’s a line that [you cross],” Jackson said, via Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer. “We’re going to stop all that. We don’t need all that. I don’t think he’s trying to be negative when he’s doing it. The conversation on the field yesterday [with Griffin], they were disagreeing about the clock running down. And those things happen from time to time.”

Of course, being 0-13 may have something to do with that, as Pryor admitted the strain of constant losing made it harder to keep composure.

“Each and every one of my teammates and I have worked extremely hard to do everything we can to win for our head coach and fans,” he said in an email to the Plain Dealer. “These past 13 weeks have been extremely tough, but I can promise you we will have a great week of practice and go all out to get the win against Buffalo.

“We are all competitive and want to win. Emotions are high. All we can do is move forward and give our best foot forward. I believe my teammates will respond well this week. We will give our best effort this week to win for our head coach because he deserves it and he works extremely hard as well as the organization.”

If he really wanted to get on his coach’s good side, the easiest way might be to get those emotions in check and simply play.
