Anderson is gaining leverage

But I'm glad you feel like Anderson is in a good spot. I think he's in the right spot, if that's the same thing.In the long run it will be good to get this dink n dunk shit out of the way.
And when Anderson goes back in, the BRAY-DEE chants stop.
In the meantime, Anderson can really put the pressure on with Carolina inquiring.
Regardless of the title of that article, I don't think they'll go after Feeley unless it's for 3rd string. If they think Delhomme is over the hill, Anderson's agent will be in their offices in the next couple days.
FYI Feeley is another hoss from small town Oregon.

Matt Moore continues to not be very good. He's a career 64.0 passer, even lower than Anderson rang up in 2008.Yikes that's almost as bad as Brady Quinn's career passer rating.

Jake Delhomme is on pretty thin ice in Carolina with 11 turnovers in 2 games.
Their QB coach is some dude by the name of Rip Scherer
And now they've got only 2 QBs on the roster.
with the Brady Quinn experiment looking like a train wreck, Cleveland probably doesn't want to let DA go anytime soon.
Anderson may have some good options, coming very soon.

DA isnt going anywhere and i doubt very seriously he would want to work with rip(the butcher)scherer again he has done a great job with delhomme the same butcher job in fact he done here...at this point im not sold on BQ and im positive mangoofy isnt either the way our o-line is DA will get his shot at some point....
-
DA isn't going anywhere, any time soon. With the way the QB situation has played out so far, it's obvious to me at least, that our coaching staff doesn't really love, or maybe even like, either guy. If BQ continues to struggle in the next 2-4 games, EM will have no choice but to try "the other guy". There's no way he's going to back himself into a corner by having just one underwhelming QB, when he can have two, and at least another option.
-
I agree, but that will change based on the severity of Quinn's struggles. We the fans, have definitely earned the right to be impatient when it comes to expecting good football, and yesterdays boos, from the same fans who earlier screamed "BRADY", prove that EM won't have the luxury of waiting game after game for Quinn to reach expectations.

You can't bench a young QB after 3 or 4 starts.FYI, Brady Quinn was benched in his 3rd start.
And he probably should have been benched in his 4th start.
Mangini won't bench him right now. But if he plays like he has, he ain't gonna get to 70% of this yrs snaps either.
But I agree that Quinn has been mismanaged. Too many pillows taped to his ass to cushion his falls. If he wasn't a first rd pick, he'd have been "Gradkowskied" by now.

Maybe so WPBD....but much of the numbers came in "who cares" time.
having been at the game....it didn't look very good to be honest.....but 1 game doesn't tell the tale.

what was Quinns numbers this week Rating wise

A frisky 74.1.

haha i live in charlotte and they want his head here. I was at a bar watching the browns game and people were just literally throwing shit at the t.v.'s. People haven't liked him in Carolina for years, but for some reason he keeps getting the snaps.
-
Unbelievable that Delhomme got a contract like that - he has NEVER been what I think of as a guy to build the franchise around. That playoff game last year and yesterday's game prove it.
Yesterday was tough for us, but man, we didn't have as much QB suckage as Carolina did. Or CHI for that matter.
-
DA is gaining leverage on what? The end of the bench? This isn't tetter-totter land, Numnuts.
-
Oh, boy. Now DA has imaginary suitors, teams that REALLY REALLY REALLY want him, huh?
If a team wanted DA, they could have him for a 2nd round pick. Guaranteed.
So if a team as desperate at QB as Carolina isn't willing to give up a 2nd for DA, what does that say about DA?

DA is what he is,A vey well qualified backup QB,for anyone who thinks he's more is dillusional.
Im not going to bash the guy he isnt a starter but he's a good stop gap.
yea, kinda like kelly holcolm with a big arm.

If Quinn sucks for 6-8 weeks, I'd love to give Anderson another look. I'm totally serious. I'll be cheering my ass off, because I don't love this QB class at all.Probably isn't useful to talk in terms of classes: all you need is to fall in love with one guy, like you did with Sanchez.
But if we're going to talk about classes, I'd predict that next year's will afford a different opportunity: the chance to draft a guy in Rd. 2 or 3 who might be the guy.
If the coaching staff is unsure about Quinn, they could draft a McCoy, Pike, or Hiller to groom behind him. That's because next year will have a deeper, more talented senior class, even if the top QB prospects are underclassmen (guys like Bradford, Clausen, Locker, and Snead).

Cleveland Browns, the land of the eternal QB controversy.
(that's what the land would be if they went with your idea, or what you think they might do.)
