Hoyer to Start! (Updated)
-
I seem to recall we had a QB with good intangibles, who generally made solid decisions, but had a very questionable arm. He was hounded out of the city in favour of Weeden

All I hope for is that they let Hoyer run the full playbook. I'd rather see the Browns go down in a blaze of glory than see another run up the middle 30 times/no down field passing performance.

Yeah, let's go there. I think we're going to see him maybe as soon as next week. What chance does he give us to win?

By the way ... good call.

Maybe in this case history will repeat itself.
Well Hoyer was playing against guys who are mostly unemployed right now but unlike Weeden he showed his neck is functional. I question Hoyer's arm strength and we'll see how he does against pressure, second coming of Tom Brady? probably not but a lot more exciting than Campbell. I think we have seen the last of Weeden. Add another name to the list.
A strong arm does not necessarily make a good QB in the NFL. Accuracy is key. At any rate, I love the picture!
It's so damn true! But, hey... I wish the kid luck. -
The Browns coaching staff deliberatley sabotaged the game plan in the first two weeks with shoddy play calling. They then proceeded to give Weeds his walking papers with a convienent ghost thumb injury that will sideline him for the year.
Now with Lombanner's man at the helm and Gordon coming back they'll unleash the entire playbook.

I don't have a problem with Hoyer, but him being the Third Stringer I really have to wonder how much real practice he's been getting and how sharp he'll be.
The Tin Fiol Hat wearer in me seems to think this is pretty odd . . .

Well, this doesn't suprise me.... Not one bit. And being a bit of a tin foil hat wearer at times myself, could one of you please pass the Reynolds Wrap?

Are we Browns Fans or what.
I think they've turned us into a bunch of twisted individuals

Reporter: Is it Hoyer's job to lose at this point?
Chud: "We'll play the guy that gives us the best chance to win"

Also from Grossi:
Chud on Weeden keeping starting job when healthy: We're going to leave all the options open.
Not really too much of a surprise, but a little bit of one.

And that is the right answer. Again, I'm wishing the kid good luck. Maybe..... JUST MAYBE... the stars and planets have aligned and we may have that diamond in the rough!

What's the problem? Campbell had plenty of opportunity to prove he is the go-to-guy against the shitbirds. He went in with the Browns on their own one yard line, was given the chance to run 5 plays that took all of 33 seconds. You gotta make hay while the sun is shining and he just wasn't up to the job.
This is just what the Browns need to right the ship....a bona fide qb controversy. who knows, maybe they will get an extra 15 seconds of coverage on Sportscenter.
The 2013 season final credits will be scrolling across the screen at about 445pm on Sept 29. On a positive note, there will be plenty of good stubhub seats available on the cheap for the Bills game Thursday night. so it goes

I don't mind Hoyer starting. If Campbell was gonna be the guy, he would have been the guy with a team before we got him. That said, I think Hoyer is going to tank and throw 3 INTs but somehow manage a TD against the Vikes and Browns fans will be bobbing up and down on his dick because we are that starved for talent in this town.

Definitely interesting that Hoyer jumped over Campbell who I thought was the #2 QB on the depth chart. Maybe Hoyer had a better week at practice.
So this begs the question, if Hoyer lights the Vikings up, say 300+ yards and 2-3 TDs with no picks, does he keep the starting job? I know some believe that you shouldn't lose your job to injury but we see how that turned out for the Patriots when Brady took over as well as the 49ers when Kaepernick took over.

Then he probably gets the start against Cinci, especially the way Chud has said "we'll keep all our options open" or something. The bigger problem is, what if he stinks up the place, but we still win? What if he's something like 22-48 for 180yds, 1TD, 3INT, and we manage to get a TD from Richardson, a field goal, and win 17-14 or something?

Keep in mind the original poster who thinks that if we change the color of the uniforms, players like Greg Little will suck less than they currently do.
A new QB will make this team better only if he's actually better than the QB that we have right now and we don't have a QB on the roster who is better than Weeden.
It's not Campbell and it's certainly not Brian fucking Hoyer.
Go back to talking about uniforms...

Just because he's starting doesn't mean he's any better than what we've been seeing in Weeden. I hope I'm wrong and the kid comes in and lights it up and turns into the 2nd coming of Brian Sipe.
We'll see on Sunday...I hope he plays well. I'd love to see some offense against the Bengals and Bills when I'm in town.
