Colt Mccoy
-
I'm gonna say it's Chase Daniel and maybe Dysert in 4? Neither Colt nor Thad make a lick of sense in this offense. Same for Foles in Philly. He won't be on that roster. No way, no how.
We couldn't get a sixth for McCoy last year. I said it before: To get someone to take him, we'd probably have to throw in a draft pick. Like a dowery. He's so fricking horrible it's absurd.
-
Why do we think Colt's "fiery?" I don't get that. Haven't seen it. At all. As if it helps anything. He's just a low-end talent: Weak arm, horrific accuracy even at like 10 yards, mobile but not really instinctive getting yards with the ball... not even a great backup.
-
Fire doesn't get the ball 40 yards downfield to a streaking WR.
-
ah...
Colt can loft a ball the 40 yards no problem. Zing it? no.
But with a RT that couldn't protect him, and he was well known for being very accurate
on the run on short, midrange throws.. he has gotten first downs and touchdowns with his feet.
And his throws.
But more often, sure, he doesn't have that arm and it holds him back. But he will
slam into a first down where Weeden will slide and punt. DA had the arm, but had
no fire in his attitude in playing the game. I suppose Weeden can come around with that...
but I haven't seen it, either. Weeden's big arm surely will make the difference his second year.
I would have given Colt a fair shot at the qb competition in preseason, and maybe that would
show more of what he CAN do with a RT if it comes to trade time. Maybe it's just that all the confusion
with Shurmur and co kept Weeden off balance to not have the confidence to lay it on the line.

I just saw how the Ravens gave Boldin to the 49ers for basically some toilet paper. I think that you can see the effect of having a QB with a BLOATED contract and an even bigger head! It's not all about the QB, it's a TEAM GAME.
When Colt wins the Superbowl I'd be willing to bet that he's the type of player that would take a PAYCUT to keep his targets and team intact, he would even probably do it for a defensive player, that's the type of guy he is. And for those who feel like mocking me about it, here's some more ammo- Colt will be the QB that leads us to the Playoffs this season.
Colt will do it for God's Glory.

Colt McCoy can be the modern day Jim Ninowski.
Ninowski was taken by the Browns in the 4th round. 49th overall, which would be the equivalent of a mid 2d round pick today. He started a year for the Browns, then went to the backup role when the Browns acquired Frank Ryan...the last QB to take the Browns to a title.
Ninowski held that backup role for about 5 years.
Right now, as far as I can tell, that is going to be the fate of Colt McCoy. The Browns cannot get any value for him really in a trade. And the Browns need a backup QB, so Colt is it. Some may give lip service to him competing for the starting role, but that is all it is, lip service. Unless the Browns bring in someone to replace Colt as the backup, he is the man in that role. What? You want DA or BQ back?
There ain't nobody out there that has the potential of BW3. If they get anyone they get someone to compete with McCoy, not with Weeden.
-
Colt McCoy does not have the skills to start in the NFL - God didn't put that ability within his arm. Zero teams are interested in trading for McCoy.
I don't think any available QB this offseason is an upgrade to either starter (Weeden) or backup. So I wouldn't spend any picks on the position.
We need to upgrade the OLB and RG positions more urgently than QB. We don't have NFL-caliber talent at every position, and persevorating in thinking about backups who won't see the field doesn't help.
-
Cal, I can loft the ball 40 yards.
We are talking the NFL here, you have to zing it.
Can we stop being the the Island of Misfit Toys and start competing with the talent in the rest of our division?

********************************
LOL.
I'll go with that. Brady Quinn had the arm,still a misfit....
I hope Weeden is the Guy this next season.

The only way Colt wins the super bowl is if he's playing Madden on his PS3.
I'm guessing you got tired of whacking off to your Trent Richardson poster so you moved on to Colt McCoy.. the guy who is soon to be on another team.

Translation- someone dropped you on your head at an early age.
As the departed Ghoolie would tell you, we privately offered Colt to every team last year. The Ravens gave Boldin away for a roll of toilet paper? We couldn't even get that much for McCoy.

I don't understand how we could all agree that Colt should have sat for a year or two and learned from the sidelines, in effect getting the most improvement from him. Well, he won the starting job from Delhomme and Wallace and then went on to start another year. But then it became, Oh- he needs a good team around him to successful, well now he has the team around him plus he's sat and learned from the sidelines for a year add that to the 2 years of playing time and I don't see how you guys could count him out. But hey, Haters gonna hate, right?
Colt will always have his doubters until he shoves the crow down your throat, that'll shut ya up, and that's exactly what he's poised to do... right after he beats out your Goldenboy Weeden for the starting role this training camp. Nobody ever said Eastwood needed a bigger gun to get the job done. The point is that Weeden didn't fair much better than Colt did during his tenure so your stance that Weeden has all the tools to get the job done is moot.

PG, you're not listening. If Colt was 1\2 as good as you think he is, the Browns should have gotten a mid round pick for him last off season. There was (at best) rumored mild interest from Green Bay for him to back up Aaron Rodgers.
BTW, we don't "hate" McCoy. We're being objective. Just like I don't "hate" on Trent Richardson. He hasn't come close to living up to your lofty expectations for him- yet. Time will tell if the Browns would have been better off drafting Doug Martin instead. Guys who know way more about football than us armchair quarterbacks say Colt isn't the answer. We wouldn't have gone after RG III if H&H though he was. Our infrequent poster & guru Jason J thinks Colt's worthless if he has to throw on the run. Please don't get Shep started on giving you a laundry list of Colt's other shortcomings as a potential starting NFL signal caller.
If anyone should have succeeded in Shurmur's dink and dunk offense,it would have been Colt. Like Zombo said, you can find plenty of guys in the Tailgate lots before the game who can toss a football 40 yards. Throwing one 40 yards with velocity on it is another story. That's what separates the men from the (McCoy) boys. Chucking up 40 yard flutterballs gives the defensive backs time to close on the wrs and either break up the play or intercept it.

I understand that but what I'm saying is that we haven't seen him play in a while and I believe that he's gonna be a lot better than he was in the past. You guys want better? That's exactly what I'm saying, I'd put money on that he'll be better than you guys remember him being when he step out there this year. I'm just upset that so many are counting him out already, the kids a go-getter.
The kid will give you everything he's got. You want better and you'll get it from Colt McCoy, alright? If he still fails then I'll concede that he's backup material... But until then he's my guy and I'm gonna continue to fight for him.
