Matt Flynn

I could pass for 500 yards and 6 TD's with Green Bay's offense. I think you better give McCoy another year because as much as it'd make me puke, he'll make the Browns consistent winners. Your D was 5th in scoring Defense and with some offensive help you guys are looking to a threat every year. WR's are your biggest weakness and should be the focus of your draft. RGIII would make a good wideout, but he'll not go for that, so you need to forget about him.

god you guys jump ship so quickly
flynn played one game in the 2nd best offense in the league against one of the poorest secondaries in the league
while his performance would be impressive for anyone, its not anything to bank on.
1 game doesnt make a player.....1 season doesnt make a player either
give colt the time he deserves

What are the downsides to getting Flynn? It'll light a fire under Colt's ass to start producing. A pick we don't spend on a QB is a pick we can spend on weapons around him.

It will cost whatever contract he would get, which is sure to be more than that of a rookie draft pick.

yeah and if we did all the BS to get him don't you think we'd start him over colt? so where's that "burning the fire under his ass"?
man everyone just calm down. give colt another year, build up and fill in the rest of the team. if he doesn't produce next year then.....
like i said before, it's not like we're going on a superbowl run or even a playoff run next year. why not take the opportunity to grab 6 players next year. i mean heckert has done good by us so far.
you guys must be a pleasure to watch tv with. don't like the first 5 minutes of a movie so let's pull out the dvd and put another one in. for christ's sake, stop it.

What would the trade Value be on Flynn? A third rounder, perhaps?

A player can't be traded when he's not under contract. He's just has to sign somewhere, it's called free agency.

Sounds like a familiar story though. Oh wait! Last season Kevin Kolb took over for Vick with electric playmakers and earned himself a contract in Arizona. Then he plays for a team with Larry Fitzgerald and a bunch off plugs and he's garbage. Give Colt weapons, watch him succeed!
-
Remember last year when Vick got hurt early in the season? Kevin Kolb came in and put up some gaudy numbers for a back-up by playing in an offense with playmakers like DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, and LeSean McCoy. He earned himself a new contract in Arizona and we all can see he is garbage with Larry Fitzgerald as his lone playmaker. Also, Matt Flynn is not the answer. Does any one remember Matt Flynn as an average QB at LSU? He's throwing to Greg Jennings, Donald Driver, Jordy Nelson, and Jermichael Finley to put up those numbers.
What am I getting at?
1. Give Colt McCoy some weapons and see what he can do. You'd be amazed.
2. Stay away from Matt Flynn. He's the next Kevin Kolb.
That is all.

exactly, let's give McCoy some weapons and see what he can do...

per Brandt on twitter:
There's no way Green Bay is going to franchise Flynn.
Cleveland needs to get him!
They would Franchise him cause it would give them the chance to trade and I don't think that any team would have to pay the tag but instead sign him to their own contract. It's exactly what the Patriots did with Matt Cassel.

yup, and KC is paying cassel 6 years, 63 million. how you think they like that number?

I'm not arguing one side or the other here, I'm just saying that I've heard and it's been the idea for years that Matt Flynn is the best backup in the NFL, a la matt schaub. I can't make an opinion though because I've never really seen the dude play, but just throwing that up there.
-
Im in RG3 Camp, i wouldnt pay Flynn that kind of Money he is going to get...Plus do you really think if he hits F/A he will choose Cleveland over the other places he could go Miami,SF etc...Also word is if hes traded the current asking price is a 1st rounder way to steep

Maybe he didn't make a strong case for his opinion, but show me one throw or situation McCoy couldn't have executed with that system/offense?
Good point! The problem with these back up guys is you could get a Steve Young like the niners did from the Bucs or a get a Scott Mitchel. Back ups always look good when there on a good team to start with. The Browns are not a good team and can make anyone look bad.

There's no way they'd take the chance to pay a backup that much money. I don't think many teams would trade for him to pay him that much money after two games. I doubt he gets the franchise tag. Once they use it, that's it. They would have to pay him around 14.5 million. They can't remove it.

He's had time and has not shown improvement.

Don't reply to canton legend he is a Saints bandwagoner from Ohio who doesn't root for the Brown but wants lecture their fans.

Matt Flynn is leaps and bounds better than Colt.
He makes better throws left handed than Colt does right handed.
Matt Flynn shaves with a chainsaw.

Matt Flynn looked pretty good last week filling in for Aaron Rodgers. Don't forget he was throwing to Greg Jennings, Donald Driver, Jordy Nelson, and Jermichael Finley. That story sounds familiar. Does anyone remember last season how good Kevin Kolb looked when Vick went down? Well I do and he looked really good. That's because he was throwing to DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, and LeSean McCoy. Good enough to earn himself a job in Arizona. Now, how does he look when his only playmaker is Larry Fitzgerald? What am I getting at?
1. Colt stays and we don't draft a quarterback. Also, add WEAPONS to the offense and watch McCoy succeed.
2. Stay away from Matt Flynn. It's an illusion.
