  • It's the right decision, Hoyer has at least looked good in the NFL games he has played for us, Manziel a long way to go.

  • OK by me. Cleveland has been the boneyard for starting rookie QBs. If they are going to shape the player to the offense instead of the other way around, then it's best to give JM a lot more time.

    He's always been a full fast tempo 2 minutes in 60 kind of player and this huddle up every play kind of O just does not fit him coming into the league. If he never adjusts to it, then some up tempo team will get him for a song and a dance.

    Hoyer deserves it based on his play in practice and last year before he was hurt.

  • Easy call to make, Manziel simply isn't quite there to start yet and Hoyer can manage the team until he is. I guarantee Hoyer has a three game audition though, if he sucks it up going into the bye it's time to start flashing the money symbols.

  • Hopefully he doesn't play as embarrassing as he did in these preseason games. Haha not to say Manziel did any better. They both were garbage. But preseason is preseason.

  • If Wide Recievers did half of what was expected of an Nfl reciever we would all be pumped right now. Again qbs take wayyyyyyy to much heat for other players bs.

  • I'm excited to see Hoyer against the Rams Saturday knowing he's the guy. Distractions are behind him now and he can play likely the whole first half with our starters and not doing the stupid alternating series crap.

    Amen, amen, amen! Stupid rookie coach move.

  • That's the smart move. And for the next couple preparation weeks they can concentrate on getting Brian Hoyer ready to quarterback the team. Another good point is that he will be playing a less aggressive offense since some of the plays are beyond his physical abilities.

    If the offensive line, the running game and the defense hold up.....

    We should know by the break.

  • Smart move. That should back off the media.

  • Yup... was really the only decision to make.

    While Hoyer did not make the throws against WSH, he remained poised in the pocket and with one exception made the reads. Add that we know he can make the throws and there's the decision.

    While I am still concerned that the pressure of the competition may have gotten to him, hopefully a 3-game commitment (I doubt he gets more) is enough to get him on track.

    Here's to a good week of practice and a solid, home preseason opener...

    His head is a little crooked to the right. Must have taken a head to head hit missed by the refs..

  • Now that the sideshow is over, and the ticket sales are up, and the marketing scheme that only benefitted the Browns front office has played out, I have one thing to say to the Browns front office. You damned well better put a product on the field we as fans can be proud of. Fans are getting real tired of the mediocrity ! The pyramids were built faster than this football team !
