Brandon Weeden Report Card- Week 4
-
Boy, Browns fans sure have changed. Most of us used to go into Sundays expecting a win. Now, many of us go into Sundays hoping to get "better." I miss the old days.
There is nothing unreasonable about people managing their expectations about this team. It is the fans who cry about blowing the team up after a developmental year like this one that contribute to a culture of losing. We are playing playoff caliber teams every week with 3-4 rookies starting on offense and 5-6 rookies contributing heavily. Please keep things in perspective before damning the fans who actually pay enough attention to the game to see real improvement.

Stats so far 1/4 of the way through the season
Weedy is:
29th in completions
29th in YDS per pass
Tied 1st Most INT
31st TD
31st QB Rating
32 in WINS
This game should be the turning point...he has to win this one or we are 0-5 it doesn't matter if he is the next staubach...he was benched too. He needs to realize that this isn't a game anymore.

You want WINS- better root for another team this year. BW is ahead of Schaub and Rivers in total yards.

This post is plain goofy. How about keeping in perspective the fans that actually "pay" to go the games?
No one is forced to buy tickets. If you don't enjoy rooting for the Browns don't buy tickets. To me, it is goofy to act like the sky is falling when a team as raw as ours loses close games to teams like the Ravens, Eagles, Bills, and Bengals. But if you look at it that way, I guess you wouldn't be able to perpetually complain in posts.

Who cares how many yards you pass for if you don't win...or at the very least control the game and tempo

Winning is a team stat.

It's not that we're forced to buy tickets. In actuality, if you're a long time season ticket holder- unless you're super rich, you are forced to renew your tickets every year- as the cost of buying back premium PSLs on eBay or Craglist would be prohibitive- like $10,000 per seat- and up. Waiting for someone to croak who has lower deck seats between the 30s without leaving them in a will just doesn't happen.
After spending all that cash every year- it sure isn't unreasonable in the parity driven NFL to expect better than 3 winning seasons out of the last 20.
A Super Bowl win sometime in my lifetime would be a nice plus, I really don't know how I'd react if that ever happened. -

I agree with that.
I spend Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights in hotel rooms to watch the Browns, and you know I make more than a couple of games a year.....I make nearly all of them. I drop about $700 minimum every time I come up, and that doesn't include ticket cost, so no doubt, I/we can bitch a little louder than the guy who sits at the house or maybe ventures to a local bar to catch the game.
I always have a few tickets to sell every year and make it known. None of the people pissing and moaning about us pissing and moaning has ever bought a ticket from me.
As far as I am concerned, they can STFU. Fans go to games. Cheerleaders adjust their Bra's* before heading to the easy chair or local bar.
*No offense to the real fans who actually have a reason to wear a Bra.

Colt threw for 250 yards once all of last year. Weeden has thrown for over 320 yards twice already this year against tough AFC North defenses.
I don't care if he averages 450 yards per game.
Here is the weird part. If Colt had the same weapons such as TR last year, we wouldn't have drafted high enough to draft TR.
You like height and arm strength, I like wins.

This has to be one of the dumbest posts that I have read. When you try and knock Weeden for having weapons all you can name is one- Richardson- who hasn't produced enough to be called a weapon. He has averaged about 55 yards per game rushing and 30 yards per game receiving (This is not a knock on #33. It is too early to tell anything about any of our rookies). The second part of the post only gets worse. How could anyone call Colt McCoy a winner with his record as a starter? Whatever wins Colt got in his rookie year should be credited to the Browns rushing game that year and Phil Dawson. The agenda posters (mostly McCoy homers or anti H-H-S guys) are annoying. Bring something new and valuable to a discussion for once please.
