Weeds getting one more week!
-
Fact is, Brandon could go 24-of-36 for 398 yards and 3 TDs, 0 INTs with a win next week and then throw 21-of-34 for 293 yards, 2 TDs and 2 INTs in a loss and you will all say he's the worst QB in the NFL, should be strung up and kicked out of the league.
All??? Kinda familiar for a 4-post wonder...
EDIT: He's not the worst in the league...

He's not? Is there a team in the NFL that would trade their current starter straight up for Weetarded? The Bills don't count because their 4th starting QB of the season now that Lewis is hurt and they've signed Flynn. Who else would trade their starter straight up for Weetarded? I'm going through all the teams in the league in my head and I can't think of one team that would make that trade. Jacksonville...maybe...but even that is a stretch.

I was trying to tell you all that Colt McCoy would have been a much better option than Weeden. Yes, Weeden has a stronger arm, can throw the ball harder and further, is taller and was a first round draft pick... Bottom line is Colt McCoy is a better QB, he's smarter, he's younger, he's a leader that the team will play for and he can make plays with his legs.
Colt McCoy is essentially Brian Hoyer.

Ugh. no. Hell no.
and the last line -
I just. I can't.

Lol, Weeden's shovel pass is a "C'Mon Man" moment on MNF Countdown.

what did he score on the "wonder lick your ass" test?

You don't need to watch a quarterback for 10 games to see how he plays. One will do, actually. Three? You pretty much know who he is at that point, whether it's green and confused... or decisive and comfortable playing the position. Hoyer very much looked that latter in three games and the last preseason game. He never looked anything but so it's pretty conclusive.
Yes, he's limited, as someone else put it. He's short-ish with a medium (but not weak) arm. But he's smart, mobile, reads defenses well, a natural leader, and very accurate (everything Colt McCoy isn't but keeps getting accused of anyway). He can start in this league. I don't know if he's going to get another shot next year (he turns 29) but he might while the rookie figures things out. Maybe until the bye unless he goes all Drew Brees.
I can't fathom why Weeden would be on anybody's roster. He's neither young nor polished. He's nothing you want.

I agree Shep. I think we keep Hoyer and start 2014 with him as QB while the 1st round draftee gets to absorb the NFL a bit.

That's the only way it makes sense. I wanted to smack bull today through the radio for saying that if the Browns draft a qb 1st round next year that he'll be the starter on opening day next year. Under no circumstances should that happen. Look we could have drafted Andrew Luck and he would have struggled, that's just the way it works here in Cleveland. Facts are facts. Couch probably would have had a nice career for himself somewhere else.To play qb in Cleveland your balls have to have been crafted on the temple mount. Just the way it is.

Maybe CLE should invest in some Weed Whacker...

Stop...dont...take it away!!! Get it off!!!! CANT....STOP.....WATCHING

Ponder and Gabbert- but taking in the age factor, I doubt it. Wee-done is at the apex of his (limited) talents. Those other two might actually improve.
Eli Manning is sucking right now, as is Carson Palmer- But they only got the Weester beat by a couple of years.

I think Chud knows very well that next game in Green Bay is going to be a massacre.
Why making a change at QB there and risk another blowout with Campbell at the helm?
Let Weeden hit the wall and then make a change in a more playable game. That's what I would do if I were Chud.
-
i think chud is starting to show the dumb ass that he looks like.
and where is turner in the second half of these games with his dynamic offensive play calling? seriously?
6 games winning at half time and lose half of them?
bad coaching in my eyes (minus stoopid QB play).
and if it easn't for brian hoyer making something out of norv's busted plays i think we'd be winless just like the gints.

Pin Point.

Weeden will bounce back. Had a good half. Just need to sharpen up some rough edges

I'm not campaigning for Wheezy, but you probably would have traded Peyton Manning after his rookie season given his initial numbers.

. Had a good half.
He did enough in that half to "apparently" make people forget he left 10-14 points off the board with two throws that Colt McCoy even would have nailed.
-
Weeden is terrible. He's gonna make a big throw with that bazooka every once in a while, tantalize you like DA... but he blows. And I didn't hate the pick at the time.
It's not just numbers. I watched Manning plenty during his rookie year and no, I wouldn't have traded him. That was before rules changes and rookies putting up crazy efficiency numbers out of the gate. Same for John Elway, who didn't have great rookie numbers. They both clearly passed the eyeball test.
Weeds looks confused, scared, and slow, mentally. Physically, I think his ability to run has been vastly overrated. If he had a brain and knew what to do and when, his wheels are just fine. Certainly WAY better than Brees, Brady, or Manning.

What kills me is that Ogbonnaya was open for a few seconds with a chance to gain some yards with Weeden looking RIGHT AT HIM before he "threw" it. But it's really no use complaining. He's here for the rest of the year unless Hoyer learns to play on one leg.
