Kosar says Anderson was "fantastic"
-
being one that has been outside of northern ohio now for over 20 years, i find it hard to believe that people are so grounded in their beliefs in one brown's quarterback or another that they don't care about the positives when they do occur. i totally agree with bernie and his remarks. and i'm not totally sure what the appeal of brady quinn is to native clevelanders but it seems to me that he really hasn't done anything when he's been in there. the same cannot be said for derek anderson. get over the catholic pride thing and get on with the browns pride thing. geez.

Was he drunk, or just high on pills? Love Kosar ....when he's sober. (which obviously wasn't the case in this instance)

I have complete faith in bernie if he rewatched the tape. You see that curl and drop low pass all the time, I thought it was in a perfect place for heiden to catch it if he had made the same decision. But, heiden hasn't played much football

I believe the adjective he used was "phenominal" and Reghi (the brilliant man he is) had him repeat it because he couldn't believe his ears. I believe Bernie is right because I've been saying the same things since Sunday at around 3:30. If mopaji says it and Bernie, pff..it's fact. The difference is, I get called all kinds of names for it. He also said that the pick was on Heiden and that "he would run a hitch on that 99 out of 100 times". DA's good and he's still getting better.

Kosar was on the Michael Reghi show this afternoon in drive. This is the second time I've heard him after a game. He was very critical after the Denver loss.
He said that he thought DA had a good game when he watched it real time. He then went back and watched the tape and said he upgraded his opinion to "great game".
He said the interception was exactly the right read and a good throw and that Heiden "would like to have that one back."
He gushed about some of the throws that DA made saying "now those were NFL throws"
Reghi asked him whether DA's passes stretched the field to the point that Cincy had to respect it, opening up the running game. Kosar said "yes, without a doubt. Vertically AND Horizontally."
When Reghi asked him if he thinks Quinn is done in Cleveland and will ask for a trade, Kosar said Quinn's not done and that you don't want a guy who wants to be a back up. He followed up with a comment that if Derek continues to play the way he did Sunday it will would be tough for Quinn or anyone else for that matter to get Anderson off the field with his abilities.
I was a little surprised by how much praise Kosar had for Anderson's performance. I thought he played well, but apparently not as well as Kosar thought he played. Kosar definitely saw something different on the pick than Gannon.
Kosar was also complimentary of Daboll's game.

My comments on this play after only seeing it once, live, and not focused in on it but surveying the entire play unfolding:
<<< On the RED ZONE INTERCEPTION, that was right in our corner, from my view, he was expecting Heiden to button-hook, roll inward and sit down and DA was throwing to that spot. I'm not sure why it took Heiden so long to get somewhere there or perhaps he got caught up in traffic, but it looked like miscommunication. >>>>
I've asked this once already, but does anyone have a video of this play?

Funny, that's the same reply I received when giving my opinion of this game ... but Ironically, TheBestPlayersPlay first of all doesn't believe his screen name, and secondly lacks giving his own views just yip,yaps,and yipes.

Bernie has manlove for DA. I don't know what he will do when DA is gone.

DA's good and he's still getting better.
I wouldn't bet the farm on that
one just yet.

DA wasn't even "good" vs. the Bengals. Game started off horribly, went through a nice little patch in the late in the 2nd/ 3rd quarter(with alot of help from Cribbs) and was a wreck down the stretch. His overtime was DAesque bad. He threw the ball behind so many recievers, it was rediculous. No wonder the Browns lost.
-
The thing I like most about DAs play was that he looked like he was making smart decisions with the football. If he continues to do that he will be our starter and we will win games.
-
Wow, our standards as Browns fans have really taken a shit.

"Phenominal" really, DA had 1 good sustained drive all day, 77 yards for a 1 yard TD run.
The other TD was fine 38 yard drive, 8 yard run, 29 yard pass to MM & then the 1 yard TD pass to Heiden.
AND THAT WAS IT! IN 5 Quarters!
Did nothing with the super short fields, and nothing in OT!
Not the good DA, not the Bad DA, just the FAIR DA.

Bernie Kosar was to NFL Quarterbacks what Aunt Clara of the old TV Show "BEWITCHED" was to witches. Bernie was the Master of the 3 yard pass on 3d and 8. Announcers could never compliment his athletic ability with a straight face so they made up folklore about him being a smart QB. Yeah, so smart that not one network sought him out as an analyst. Even Rich Dumbell gannon is thought of mroe highly than Blosar is.I have no earthly idea how good Andersen may or may not be, HOWEVER, as I told you guys several years ago, he is the only choice out of the crap pile for QB. Brady Quinn should be released, seriously, he blows!

Unfortunately, Kosar isn't slick enough to get a gig on a major network as an annalist- but as to seeing what's going on, he's terrific in my book.

308 pass without and interception. In that span, he hit 7 different receivers for 300+ yards, 3500 yards total. He double majored in finance and economics and graduated in 3 1/2 years. What a dumb ass.

I thought DA looked fantastic...if the kid is given time and taught a few things he wasnt taught by rac he could seriously be a great qb...patience and tuff-love coaching are the keys to DA being an awesome qb instead of the streaky guy you cant trust that he is now..

We need some optimism in every form possible. We cant expect Kosar to come and say " hey we lost so we suck ! " He saw improvements thanks to adjustments made and is putting a positive spin on the negative end result. If we had lost the game with no score or just a field goal then how many of us will be optimistic about the Buffalo game ? After this result i know im excited about our chances for the next game. Massaqoui has come of age, Harrison is slotting in nicely and our offensive line is hanging on ... hey our next win could come sooner than we think ...
