    Hoyer wasn't anything good. He was a one read, checkdown QB with Gordon back. You can't tell me Weeden would not have put up big numbers today. The Vikes will be lucky to win 5 games.

    Hoyer made some throws into tight windows that Weeden otherwise would have missed.

    Sorry, not seeing that. He checkdowned against a defense not ready for it and got a prevent TD. The Vikes are not a good team. If you don't think Weeden wouldn't have put some big points up against them with Gordon back, it represents everything that is wrong with fan analysis.

    I think he's going for a Major League ending.

  • The Ravens only allowed the Texans 9 points. Their defense is sadly, still pretty solid outside a opening game fluke imo. I see no reason to "pile on" Brandon Weeden. He isn't the answer, but he isn't the problem. The problem is a poor OL, poor WR(with no Gordon to boot). Once the braintrust fix those problems, a QB can succeed. A good QB can win a super bowl.

  • Where are you white flag waiving assholes now?All you losers gave up before the first snap of the game.Your not fans your cry babies.

  • I agree on Weeden. He hasn't played poorly at all. I think we saw how much we needed Gordon to help open things up. In the games Weeden played he had no thumbs Little covering his back.

    Lot's of luck with that.

    I agree with that as well. Just a bunch of knee jerkers when they aren't jerking something else.

    JMO.

  • Worst problem in this game was the defense letting Christian ponder run all over them.

    no arguments dude. just saying that's where a lot of us go. live chat during the game.

    and you did come off calling someone a faggot so i mighta sounded too harsh.

  • I'm not about to get into an argument about QBs, but I WILL say that Hoyer threw 2 TDs on fade routes that Weeden HASN'T yet shown that he can throw. I like the quick decisions from Hoyer.

    While we didn't beat a great team, we played aggressive football on BOTH sides of the ball, had 6 sacks & MANY hurries/disruptions. We played this game to WIN & WIN we did! Take joy in that folks!

    And they want to trade Gordon

    Who said this? Gordon has the potential to be one of the greats. Please do not pull another Paul Warfield trade!

    They've already had a serious offer on Gordon, and interest in Little as well - go check the other threads.

    from all that was coming out of cleveland this week via national media and what banner had to say himself you would have thought that THEY were throwing in the towel.

    all on this board want the browns to win. that's it. the words 'tanking for teddy were sure thrown around hear alot but not out of my mouth. it all fell on the line of whether or not you, as a fan, think the browns had made a good trade. it took some longer than others to come around to it, some still haven't.

    IMO i hope we have a QB on this roster that WILL win us 9 games (my prediction before the season). that way it puts too much pressure on banner NOT to go for a QB @ #1 pick. we have too many other holes to fill.

  • Yeah all you faggots come in here after the game is over and talk. How many guys were here with us during the game? get out of this thread and start your own. Come back when you're a real fan.

    Love ya too T2M- but go watch the replay Hoyer's arm is marginal. However, he can hit WRs in stride, has touch on his passes, and despite the 2 bad picks (his arm got hit on the 3rd) shows anticipation Weeden can only dream about.I saw Brian avoid about 4 sacks that Weeden would certainly have taken. Hoyer may not be the long term answer, but he sure as hell is the long term bakcup.

    He can zip the ten-yard out and the 15 yd square in. Did both today... and like I said that's good enough to compete. Just like Sipe... still may not be enough to go all the way, but for now I'll take it.

    Hoyer showed the difference between qb's who can SEE the the FIELD in an instant or two...

    Not to mention before the snap...

    I wasn't having a go at you just the guy that came in here trashing the browns after a win. If the Tavern is the place to be I'll go next game. I just didn't like the vibe I was getting. Sorry if i offended anyone.

    Right, but Weeden does some thing better than Hoyer. You can't live in a vaccum. The offense was the same lame duck after the Vikings adjusted to the prevent aided TD. Until the OL and WR are upgraded, they will continue to have bad moments no matter who the QB is.

  • The offense definitely looked a lot more fluid with Hoyer running the show it'll be interesting if they let him keep the job next week and how he'll fair against Cincy.

    The Vikings are not a very good team at this point.

    The tale of two halves thing continues as far as coaching goes and is getting a little worrisome.

    Loved the aggressive decisions towards the end of the first half was a breath of fresh air after dealing with Mangini and Shurloss' conservative style.

    The D is starting to convince me they are for real, still in disbelief though after 13 years of being amongst the bottom 5 in rush defense.

    If LomBanner trades Gordon fans will go into total revolt.

    not at all fellow browns brother.

  • D started out like they'd quit.

    O went down the field and scored, and that seemed to give the D life

    Gordon got showcased big time - big factor in the game on multiple levels.

    First half the Browns came out with fire.

    Second half, we started stumbling all over ourselves, was looking like the same old story we've seen over and over.

    McGahee made a few mistakes that really cost us, not blaming him as he only had a day or two to practice.

    Hoyer managed to put together the last gasp drive to give us the go ahead score.

    D managed to hold off the Vikes last drive with 50+ secs left.

    Heck of a game, but we really need to work on our second half game - both O & D.
