Mccoy Vs. Weeden
-
Ask me 10 years ago, and I'd say that a QB competition is a good thing. But since 1999, every time it has completely backfired. We go from choosing between two QB's, to realizing we have no one capable of winning. This year is no different. Honestly I don't care anymore who plays for this team, as long as we win! As of now I can see both QB's entering camp. Weeden already has the advantage, both QBs will look decent in camp and Weeden will probably be the starter week 1. Going on to playing very mediocre during the course of the year. Neither one has the quality to "light up the scoreboard" this season. BUT the coaching staff is doing the right thing now. You can't just give him the job...

OK seriously, who voted Senecca?

Probably one of the Steeler fans that "occasionally" visit this site...
I personally wanted to vote for Spergon Wynn, but for some reason he got left out.

If you think about it, McCoy has no rope whatsoever. You don't try and trade up for RGIII, or draft another qb in the first round if H&H had any hope McCoy was the answer @ qb.
Is it possible that McCoy might start a few games, should Shurmur decide Weeden isn't ready? Certainly- but not likely. A loss or two sends Colt straight out to pasture in that case.
And you don't cut him- he's and adequate backup, and cheaper than Seneca Wallace who should get cut in that situation.

Hoorta, (I watched THE HORTA 90 minutes ago), you hit the nail on the head. However, I don't see Colt getting the start at all. If we had McNabb, or Sanchez or someone like that to start? Then it makes sense. Nobody in their right mind sits Weeden and lets him observe Colt.
Wallace is our 2nd string QB, or at least he will be as the season plays out.
I wasn't saying probability- I was saying possibility. Like about the odds of the Klingons attacking Earth in the near future.
Well, if you meant the original Star Trek Episode "Devil in the Dark" it is one of my faves, and I'm sort of like the Horta- way back in the day when it comes to trolls.Original Series Faves besides- "Corbomite Maneuver", "Balance of Terror", "Arena", "Return of the Archons". Plenty of ST-TNG that's worth watching, especially "Best of Both Worlds I & II" and the movie "First Contact".

What were the episodes called where Kirk went over to the parallel universe and Spock had the goatee?
And correct me if I am wrong but didn't "The Enterprise", the prequel series with Scott Bakula as Captain also make a visit to that same parallel universe in which the Federation was more of a dictatorial, warlike entity?

Yeah, a football nerd. Not a nerd nerd.
Not that there is anything wrong with that.

McCoy is a little boy next to Weeden. Let's all get behind the gun and hope McCoy settles into a nice, prosperous career as a backup, because he is a nice guy.
Weeden will sew up the QB position by preseason game 2 and we can all move on without any gay qb controversies where we have to move the people holding on to McCoy to a new site because they are holding on too tight.
It's Weeden's team and T-Rich is going to be a stud.
These are the new Browns. We're going to try "talent" instead of "moxie" and "hope" for a change...

I believe the episode you're referring to is "Mirror, Mirror".
The only issue I have with "Enterprise" Scott Bakula, though enjoyable has far too much time travel stuff, and I can't claim to have seen every episode of that series. Wasn't a huge fan of DSN either.

I won't speak out of school but I had a conversation with somebody I'll refer to as Peter K and I was extremely surprised about his comments RE: Colt McCoy.
Apparently there are teams in the league who believe he can become a top-tier NFL QB.
Although the Browns believe Weeken is their QB for the next 6 years, they couldn't move McCoy because - truth be told - Weeden is an unknown NFL quantity.
Personally, I'd like to see Weeden start the season and play the entire season.
PS I cringe at the thought of McCoy going to the playoffs and possibly winning the SB with another team.

I cringe at the thought of him under center on Opening Day.
McCoy is backup material, Weeden has real NFL, AFC North, Skills.
Like comparing a boy to a man ... let's just get on with it, the Browns need to go all in on Weeden and not look back.

I agree with you, Zombo.
I was taken back about the comments about McCoy. Not what I was expecting.

Huh?
Cal, I remember you held on to Charlie Frye too long, don't do the same with Colt. We all like him, it's just that Weeden is going to be a better pro.
There isn't going to be any more sucking. We are getting better all over the field.

I don't remember this Moxie Defense.
In fact, I don't remember an "OK" defense since we came back into the NFL.
