Anderson to start against the Bengals
-
Yeah WPB, everyone seems to forget that fact. Mangini flat out lied, he said once he decided on his starter, that that is who would be behind center the WHOLE season. Since Quinn has been playing so conservative, he must've told BQ and DA a different story.
SO our coach, is a flat out liar now. Not only did he make the worst OC hire of all time, he is also an asshole and a liar, not to mention a terrible coach with poor descion making and people skills.
I dont know if any of you remember but I was one of the few who wanted to keep Rac n Rolls on account of his injury plagued 08 season and really not gettin a fair shit. At least with him we would still have Chud and an offense that has been with this team for more than 2 seasons

I bet Cleveland Browns Stadium is going to be a warm and fuzzy place once Anderson starts stinking it up on Sunday.
-
Well, so much for sticking with decisions. All I have to say is that Mangini must be under some internal heat to get the browns to stop playing such shitty football that he has gone into that mode where coaches just change whatever they can in order to attempt to win one football game. You stay the course when you have confidence in your long term vision of a team. Confusion and chaos reign in cleveland for another year.

Who cares legend the little big man made his decision and new era browns fans have to just suck it up and lick the bowl dry for more i can say for sure im not a new era browns fan and i will enjoy watching the douchebag squirm as he goes down to never disgrace the nfl again...
Meanwhile in between 3 and picks i will be watching the real browns at least spiritually pave their way to the playoffs and the jets in their noble attempt to get there themselves after 3 years of bad coaching...

What else was he going to do? If he starts Quinn, he has to recognize the fact that he was wrong to pull him in the Baltimore game. Mangini, owning up to his faults? Ho, ho! Not happening.
Plus, though DA is an absolutely infuriating QB, he does indeed have a cannon. If he can learn how to use that in conjunction with the grey matter, we have our franchise QB.
Now, about that 'if'...

I'd like to take this opportunity to wish Brady Quinn good luck in whatever uniform he ends up in next. I would also like to apologize to him for the way he was mistreated by the Cleveland Browns coaching staff(s) since the day he was drafted. I am 30 years old and have been wathcing football my entire life. Never can I remember a first round QB getting only 6 starts over the course of 3 seasons in which to prove himself. Especially when there was NO true starting QB in front of him. Brady, you deserve a lot better. Good luck! I can't say that you are the QB we need here in Cleveland, but I will say that you deserved more of an opportunity here!
Browns fans, today we have witnessed our coach, Eric Mangini, make a decision that makes this team officially the laughing stock of, not only the NFL, but the sports world as a whole! I am a loyal fan through and through. And I will continue to support this team even if I never see them win another game. But, I truely think that we have just taken a turn toward the real possibility of losing this franchise again. The petition going around online to sell the team already gives the NFL a serious issue to contend with here in Cleveland. Now, with this move, Mangini has given the fans even more reason to lash out against Lerner and the Browns management and coaching staff. I WILL NOT SIGN OR SUPPORT the petition. Regardless of who the owner of the team is, fan support is needed in order to keep our team. We reacted similarly when Art Modell owned the Browns. We lashed out because he couldn't build a team to get us to the Super Bowl. He took his team and left. What is to stop Randy from doing the same thing? SUPPORT OUR BROWNS IF YOU WANT TO KEEP THEM IN CLEVELAND! If they are here, there will always be a slight hope. If they leave, there is none!!

First, I doubt the two QB's got a different story. Quinn is by nature conservative...and considering Mangini has stressed NO TURNOVERS...probably played TOO conservative. DA, well, he is DA and likely blew that off and decided he would win Mangini over with his gun for an arm. Surprisingly, it worked.
Mangini however should not be judged by the first 3 games against 3 undefeated teams with a team that has over 50% turnover since last year. We are young, we are raw, and we have a new system and nobody has played a REAL game together before these 3 games.
We had competitions at EVERY position all pre-season...so give it a few weeks and a couple of potential patsies (the next 2 weeks should tell) before we even THINK about a moratorium on Mangini.
Consider this...the Jets are doing great this year...WITH ALL THE PLAYERS MANGINI COACHED UP!!!

The last line in this story just cracks me up. Glad it looks like I am not going to be able to watch this weeks debacle.

BEREA, Ohio (AP)—Derek Anderson(notes) will start at quarterback for the Cleveland Browns on Sunday against Cincinnati.
Coach Eric Mangini has decided to go with Anderson, a Pro Bowler in 2007, over Brady Quinn(notes), who opened the season as Cleveland’s starter but was benched at halftime last Sunday in Baltimore.
Mangini believes the Browns have a better chance to move the ball with Anderson.
“I’m excited about the opportunity,” Anderson said. “We’re all competitors, we all want to play. I’m ready to go.”
Mangini spent the entire training camp deciding on a quarterback before picking Quinn over Anderson. But after Quinn threw an interception on the Browns’ first possession on Sunday, Mangini benched Quinn after just 10 quarters this season and inserted Anderson.
Anderson had more success moving Cleveland’s offense but threw three picks in the 34-3 loss to the Ravens.
“I felt like I went out there and did what I can do,” Anderson said.
Glad to see throwing 3 awful picks (and what could have been 1 or 2 more) is what DA thinks he can do

JADBF told me to judge Mangini after 10 games and i will do just that. Hopefully the future is a lot brighter.

I just hope he lights it up. Browns fans are pissed about the start of this season and it'll be embarassing if he comes out as Anderception.
I still don't think he's the long term answer, but would LOVE to be proven dead wrong.
However, if Quinn becomes successful somewhere else, Mangini will have looked like a nervous little girl for pulling the plug after 3 losses against undefeated teams.

I must say I have been holding out hope that Mangini would be able to turn this club around. I know things need to get worse sometimes before they improve. But after a QB move like this, and by Mangini's lies I can't help but to start thinking the guy is another bust. DAMNIT CLEVELAND WHY CAN'T ANYTHING GO RIGHT IN THIS ORGANIZATION. I'M SICK AND TIRED OF COUNTING DOWN THE DAYS UNTIL FOOTBALL SEASON AND BY WEEK THREE COUNTING THE DAYS UNTIL ITS OVER.

Mangini is an idiot.

Bullshit. We're not judging by losses; we're judging by HOW we lost and what else is going on.
Get Mangini the xxxx out of here. He sucks donkey balls and this team will continue to suck ass as long as he is in charge and Lerner owns it.

Anderson is the better prospect. Let's all deal with that and move on.Maybe he saves the season, maybe he sucks and we start with a new QB next year.
But I've seen enough of Quinn to know that Anderson brings more to the table with his arm and quick release. You get a guy like Anderson to play smarter and more disciplined ... you've got something.
Quinn has pretty average skills and he's not ready for prime time.
Anderson has better skills and more seasoning.
Seems like a no-brainer to me.
Like I said ... make the switch after three games if Quinn doesn't start doing something.
EXCELLENT move Mangini.
Now let's blow out the Bungles and remember what it was like when football was fun.

Congrats on getting your way.
The only thing this accomplishes is the path being free and clear for the next QB.
