  • Does anybody else wish we would have pulled the trigger on the Cutler trade?
  • There's a reason the qb competition was so close there both not starter material. This line does not run block, but I disagree with most on pass blocking. I thought they gave average protection the last two weeks. For a dinker dunk offense Quinn holds the ball to long, 3-4 seconds he's still looking and eats it.

    I really don't buy that.

    Quinn had to be given a look by the new group.

    I am wondering when they have seen enough.

    DA might not be the answer, but he brings more to the game than does Quinn..that guy(BQ) isn't any good.

    I hope this experiment ends quickly. Sanchez hasn't needed many games to show his worth. This idea qbs need 20 games to show something is bogus.

    Great qbs start off good and work up from there.

    Really? Tell me again how Brees started? Eli Manning? Troy Aikman?

  • Again, don't want to start shit. The defense ain't going to stop the Bronco's now anyhow, but Brady Quinn hasn't been able to do shit except throw the ball 3-4 yards shy of the sticks on 3rd and long.

    We are getting buried in the division, there is plenty of time to play Brady, Anderson, Ratliff, Tim Couch, Spergun Wynn, or any other.

    Just go to a fresher guy, for the sake of finishing off this bullshit Bellichick style.

    Wait, I may be on to something ... punt on 3rd down so I don't have to sit through another dink-n-dunk under the sticks.

    Passes of 20 & 24 to BE. I'd hope we dump (or kick in the nuts) Brian Daboll before Quinn.

    Edit:

    Also, put StPuss in a box and UPS him to Istanbul. Thats about the only Brown I'd ever like to see him in again.

    I don't know, I don't follow those teams.

    You are kidding yourself if you think BQ is going to be as good as those guys.

    I NEVER said he would be, so don't assume things I didn't say. All I'm saying is not ALL QBs start off great, or even good. SOME of them actually take a season, or two (Brees, Manning) before it really clicks for them.

    why would you go back to that?

    seriously....you dumb or something

  • I SWEAR TO GOD SOME OF YOU BQ FANBOYS ARE SLOW... Teams HAVE TO GAME PLAN FOR DA and they cant crowd the line and play tight because he does release the ball quickly because he believes in his arm and can thread the needle.....

    Teams are all playing the SAME DEFENSE PLAY TIGHT TO TAKE AWAY THE QUICK PASSES AND SLANTS WHICH ALSO KEEPS MORE DEFENDERS IN CLOSE TO HELP STOP THE RUN....

    THIS IS PURELY A PRODUCT OF GAME PLANNING AGAINST BRADY.....

    He did have time the o line is NOT THAT BAD NOR IS OUR DEFENSE,,,, Teams dont defend agains the mid to long BECAUSE THEY DONT HAVE TO AND IT MAKES US ONE DIMENSIONAL.....

    THAT IS HOW DA MAKES US BETTER AND MORE COMPETITIVE..... HE DOES DO SOMETHINGS THAT ARE CRAZY BUT WE CAN SCORE AND SUSTAIN DRIVES SOMETHING BQ DOES NOT DO AND CAN NOT DO.....

    Did you see the past two years of suck that we have been...

    why would you go down that road again....

    I swear the inbreeding is getting Retarded here.

  • @danamal said:

    Wow,its sad how low are expectations have become.

    Ok put DA in

    Your on fukin crack if you think the outcome would have been any different,but if you want DA and that makes you happy by all means run with it but the outcome wouldnt change a bit,this team sucks ass.

    DANAMAL JUST ADMIT BQ is a bust..... his arm strength is the problem and the fact he was overhyped as a nd weis product in the first round....

    He has just fine arm strength.

    That's not the problem.

    Dumbass.

    There is no fucking way that Brady Quinn will ever win ten games in this league, let alone 10 in one season.

    Derek Anderson is young, let's work with him, at least he has horseballs ... I happen to like horseballs over biceps.

    Hmmmm. Was it worse than Anderson? Or does the double standard not count when the favored QB is so dreamy?

    Anderson's record over the last 2 years was 13-11.

    LOL....difference between Anderson and the 3 I mentioned (Brees, Manning, Aikman) is that the 3 showed the ability to get better as time went on.

  • @danamal said:

    Peen,

    Quinn has looked like shit and he may be total garbage,but you cant type with a straight face that you think DA will EVER take this team into the playoffs.

    Whatever you want to bet on it im game.

    DA gets traded or plays here for however long of a career he has he will never lead any team to the playoffs.

    Name the bet.

    First I don't bet on the net.

    I am not saying anything about DA other than he is better than Quinn.

    I think he gives us a better chance to win..

    That said...I think we still keep BQ in for a while....I just don't want him getting anywhere near the 70% of snaps mark if he continues to play like this.

    Look at our future games....Ravens, Cincy...that is 4 games in and we might be 0-4, 1-3 at best...

    Quinn had to start strong, and he hasn't.

    Game 5 might be the point we look towards DA if we don't see marked improvement...and the odds aren't goo that happens.

  • Fact: The staff, with NO allegance to either QB, awarding the starting job to Quinn.

    Fact: This is the third time DA has gone into an NFL camp and either been unable to win a spot on the roster (Ravens), win the starting job over Frye, or keep his starting job over Quinn.

    Fact: DA isn't the savior.

    Here's the deal: if Quinn doesn't prove he has a ceiling worthy of leading an NFL team to the playoffs, we're in the market for a QB.

    How the "put in DA crew" can't see this is beyond me.

    As for today: Quinn sucked. Sure didn't build any confidence from my vantange point. What's hard to tell is how much of it is him and how much of it is the cast/coaching around him. One thing's for sure, he didn't do anything today to make anyone think its just his environment. Wow, talk about bad.

  • I am not saying anything about DA other than he is better than Quinn.

    Peen, why isn't he starting? You're saying you know better than the staff? Curious for your read on how they got it wrong.

    How'd they get it right? Basically it looks to me like they chose the lesser of the two evils.

    I already explained that.....we needed to look at Quinn. It was a close competition, so that was the logical choice to make.

    Don't worry, Quinn should get at least 2-3 more starts, and I am fine with that as i agree we need to find out about him......so far, no good.

    Add that to your fact list.

  • Im all for putting DA out there again at least we will lose trying to win but we will double the opponents score due to anderceptions...but hey at the end of the day we are going to have to draft a QB next year if BQ cant handle it..

    This expansion team is infamous for killing QB careers while retaining the worst WRs in the league...
