Norv Turner Officially Named Oc
-
Would be interesting... He is only a year older than Weeden, but he is proven. He's not a FA though, so it would require Rivers getting released or traded here. Dont know if I see that happening, but it makes sense for the new organization to go another way.

Damn, that sure slaps you in the face.

I have a feeling... Norv may try his damndest to get Rivers to come to Cleveland, BUT I still think it is highly unlikely. Plus, what would we have to give up in order to get him? I highly doubt San Diego just cuts a great QB.
You know what they say, wish in one hand...

I can't stand Rivers. I know he's good, but he seems like a whiny bitch. That being said, what have his teams done? They seem to not show up most years, or underperform at a high rate.

Chud still hasn't acknowledged Weeds. Don't think he's enamored.
This Rivers thing may have some teeth. It'll be an interesting off-season, that's for sure.

Has he commented on anyone yet?
No?
Hmmm....
Wishful thinking.

Is it Rivers or Turner that has choked the last several seasons when they repeatedly fell short ?
I think Rivers, but if it is Turner, he won't be HC here, so that's fine.
Too soon to bail on Weededn and the option would be Rivers and DA back ? DA can stay away and Rivers never seems to get the job done.

Hes not even done assembling a staff yet Z....
Why should he say anything? Oh yeah....the fans just gotta hear something!
Its all bout fans needing something to talk about. Nothing more. Why dont you pull up some vids where new HCs start talking about personnel.
"Usually" is a term used when one is framing a statement on no real facts.

So who is he going to go with? DA? Quinn?

Browns setting themselves up to mirror those early-mid 90s Cowboys teams.
Yea, the Triplets. If BW3, TR, and Flash were tantamount to the Cowboy trio...that would be good.

When i was watching Weeden vs the Broncos I really started to see the BIG throws with dead on accuracy starting to take place. Guys were covered and there were throws to where only the receiver could catch it. Got to think he will be our BEST option by week 1.

In an off year for Rivers he had 26 TDs and 15 INTs. 3,600 yards and an 88 QBR. All of those stats are better than what Weeden put up, and I would say that Rivers had less around him. He lost his No1 WR from last year, and his this years No1 before the season even started. Gates was either hurt or didnt even look like he wanted to play. Mathews was also hurt. He would be coming into a familiar offense. I think it could work wonders. He is 31 and will turn 32 a couple months after Weeden turns 30.
I guess that leads me to this question. Would you give up this years first rounder for Rivers?
I just dont want another year of what Weeden did. 14 TDs and 17 INTs with a lot of dumb mistakes. Now if you were able to say that Weeden will have his kinks worked out you keep the pick and go BPA.
What is more important to this team? A CB, LB, DE (assuming one of those would be our 1st round pick) or shoring up our starting QB?
I dont know the answer, would like to hear some opinions on the matter.

I think Weeden will have even more pressure on him this year than he did last year. Now he has new coaches and systems. So naturally he will have struggles. I really wanna like Weeden but he just dont have that IT leadership I seen this year in other rookie QBs. I really hope he works out for our sake though.

HOW can folks continually judge Weeden when, in his ROOKIE year, he had little (if any) coaching, inexperienced receivers, & lousy play design, poor play calling/decision making, & far too rigid an offensive strategy?
In 2013, Weeden & our other QBs will FINALLY have expert & credible coaching. This will not only GREATLY aid in their development, it will lend credence to their evaluations of talent.
I honestly think that Weeden was mandated to play "outside" his own comfort/talent level, where other rookie QBs were playing in offenses that were designed to take advantage of THEIR individual comfort/talent levels. THIS year, Weeden will be on more of a "level playing field" with the others, so why not wait & see what happens.
I'm extremely excited! LOVE the Chud/Norv hires, the goal of playing aggressively, & the stated flexibility.

This year should answer all the questions about our QB's if Weeden struggles you play Colt and see what he can do in this offense if both suck.. Well we are stuck drafting a new QB, but teams draft new QBs and win now so it wont be so not end f the world.. Weeden should excel in this offense though
