Trade Weeden PLZ
-
And when you run out of players???
I'll bite... link please to the official stats that call it a drop...
And you did not answer my question...
You run out of players but you do so without any excuses or what ifs. You show the fans and the front office that you're willing play people to see who wants it the most. That opens wallets in free agency as well as inspires trade ups in the draft. Show us that you want winners on this team. This is a young team that needs to understand if they don't produce they will be sat down.

and get him off this piece of shit team with these piece of shit fans. Full disclosure, I am an Oklahoma State Alum and a Weeden fanboy. I truly dont know what you expect in Cleveland. Cleveland is where quarterbacks go to die. When you try a new QB every year for 10 years in a row, just to see the QB fail year after year after year...i dunno, maybe just maybe its not the QB.
Do you know why Weeden was so successful at Oklahoma State? (he actually was very successful at OSU, look it up!) well since you all (I'm generalizing, I have seen 2 or 3 intelligent posters on this board) are so ignorant, let me spell it out for you.
1) Had all day to throw the ball
2) Had WR's that could catch the ball
3) Had WR's that could get into open space and gain yards after the catch
4) Had a running game that opened up the offense and kept the D guessing
Lets address these issues individually.
1) Had all day to throw the ball
Weeden has been sacked what? 11 times in 2 games. I dont care who you are, if you dont have time to throw the ball and are running for your life all game, you will not be successful. That said, I have seen Weeden show that he has the biggest balls on the team by standing in the pocket and getting the pass off just in time before getting rocked...only to have the ball hit the WR in the hands and drop it. And that takes us to #2...
2) Had WR's that could catch the ball
You all want to put the blame on Weeden, but how many first downs were missed because of dropped passes. I think there was around 60+ yards missed out on because of dropped passes (just this game). If I were Weeden, I woud strictly throw to only Cameron, he is the only one who has proven to be reliable. I would also demand to have Josh Cooper on the field. If you think he is any worse than the monkeys with no thumbs out there dropping passes right now, then you have your head too far up your ass.
3) Had WR's that could get into open space and gain yards after the catch
either the browns have played the 2 best cover D's in the league, or the Browns WR's cant get open for shit. (hint, its the latter) And how about YACs?? someone want to break a tackle?? Bueler??
4) Had a running game that opened up the offense and kept the D guessing
All I hear is that Weeden was such a wasted pick, yet I dont hear anything about mr 105 yards in 2 games. This is clearly a combination of 2 things, that oh so terrible O-line and T Rich trying to hard...has anyone told him that he isnt Barry Sanders? The only moves T Rich is making, is to the bench in every fantasy league around the country.
So all that being said...flame me please, I dont mind. I cant lie and say that if Weeden were elsewhere that he would be putting up Peyton Manning numbers, but at least he would have the opportunity. If you think Johnny Football is going to be your savior, please look at the bigger picture. Thats all that I am asking for, I dont deny that Weeden should take some of the blame, but lets break it down. I say Weeden gets 20% of the blame, he has only had a couple completely terrible passes. O-Line gets 30%, WRs get 25% and TRich gets 25%. You cant think that changing 20% of the problem is going to fix anything.
If the browns are going to suck anyway, they really need to prepare for the future. Quit wasting every pick on a QB, you need to start building up the Oline. a stronger Oline is going to give any QB, whoeever it is, more time and is going to open up holes for the RB. IMO the browns can have a mediocre Weeden for a couple more years while they build up the line and go for a QB in a few years.
But if you want to burn another pick on JFF or any other QB, by all means go ahead, but please Please PLEASE get Weeden out of this hell hole. I would rather see him be a backup for a good team, than start another game in Cleveland.

Fine ill take the bullet on this one ill call it an overthrow. Im not to big to admitt a "grasp" i guess. I just have diferent opinions on pro football players going out for passes i guess. still doesnt excuse all the dropped passes. Hard to build confidents in qbs with that shit going on. If you want to hang your hat on one throw thats fine. Your a cleveland sports fan. one over throw to vs 4 drops i guess weeden needs to do better

so here are Weedens stats for the Ravens game
B. Weeden 21/33 227 6.9 0 021/33 - 227 isnt a bad line. in fact at one time he was something like 13/17. so can we agree that the big issue is the big 0 in the TD column? So what if he had same stats with the 1 TD and the browns still lost, or what if he had same stats with 1 TD and 1 INT?
Would fans be more forgiving if he had 1 TD and the browns still lost? or would there be no end to it?

Dude he has to have 330+ yrds and 5 TDS and 0 INTs or hes garbage dont you get it. Eli has thrown 10 INTs this year but hes okay. Hell Rivers threw 30 INTs one year but hes okay. Gino Smith threw 4 INTs in one quarter and fans on this board want him bad.
The guy on the bench will always be the favorite to some browns fans.

It's not a bad line for a game manager QB... but that takes a run game..
Look... I did not want Wheezy. I was highly critical of the pick. But he is here now and you are correct that what is going on now is not all his fault.
But you have to acknowledge that he is "not in Kansas anymore" (or Oklahoma). He's in the big leagues now where everything is faster. And he may just not be up to the task. Competant college QBs not cutting it in the NFL happen all the time.
Plus he is probably missing all those freebies he got to go to OkSU...

There isn't anything Weeden can do about the drops though other than just not throwing the ball to Little. Those drops kill drives. As I said in another thread...look how average Tom Brady looked on Thursday night when his receivers were dropping everything thrown to them.
Not every pass is going to be exactly perfect, the receivers need to help the QB out from time to time and certainly not drop the ones that bounce off their chest.

Noone is excusing Little from dropping passes. Look around, most are clammoring for him to be benched. He's proven he's not consistent enough to play.

Also, FYI... you were right that it was not a 90 MPH bullet...
And there comes a time where the dropped passes outnumbers the really bad throws. And that time is upon us. With all the dropped passes it just magnifiies the bad ones. And that is unfair. All Qbs throw 2-5 bad throws a game. The is the Brown's and the guy has to walk on egg shells since game one last year.

OK... but will also maintain that a couple of those "hard throws" were not to a location where they gave the WR the best chance.
Wheezy has a habit of staring at his intended target and then throwing high. That tends to make WR's as nervous as clay pigeons in a Sports Science segment.

To a large extent, I agree with the OP- you can't blame everything on Weeden. However that overthow to Obi was sickening & inexcusable without a defender in the same area code- it was an easy touchdown, and Brandon has GOT to make that throw in a close game- it literally would have been a game changer.
I don't know if Little's hands of stone can ever be fixed- and Weeden did zip some bullets into tight coverage to Greg that were imminently catchable.
Agreed the right side of the OL needs fixing fast. Cousins has stunk up the joint two weeks running, and Schwartz blew a blocking assignment that got Weeden killed.
I said it in another thread- Brandon has improved, but compared to the best in the biz, he's still a 1\2 beat slow in reading a defense, and he needs to improve on his pocket awareness- some of those sacks could have been avoided if he had sensed the rush and tossed the ball away. .

Seriously?? The pass to Ogby hit him in the f'ing hands... THAT is on the receiver. No QB can be asked to make "perfect" throws ALL THE TIME. Sometimes the WRs/RBs/TEs need to make a damn play...
I'm seriously sick of the Weeden hate. Typical Browns though, Let's bring in another QB next year so he can sh** the bed throwing the ball to guys who can't get open or catch...
