  • Don't be late for class tomorrow. I can't wait for professor Shorts' history lesson. Maybe class will be cancelled for a while now that I think about it. As for the professor, it would be kind if he WERE history.

    Great game Brian Hoyer and great game Browns!

  • This is Brian's team rightfully so until he proves otherwise. Don't chastise the guy who's winning for you.

    History has been postponed until further notice...

    Yeah... Was HS, but moved on...

    Sipe now resides in San Diego, California, and coached high school football at Santa Fe Christian School in Solana Beach, California, where he helped the Eagles to four CIF titles and a combined record of 75-21-1. Sipe was hired on January 18, 2009 as quarterback coach for his Alma Mater, San Diego State. In 2010, the Aztecs beat United States Naval Academy in the Poinsettia Bowl.

    AJ green? sanu?

    owned by defense.

    gotta admit that a lot of that had to do with how bad Dalton was tonight. Even when he wasn't pressured. I had Weedon flashbacks. THey actually kind of look alike from certain angles, made me shiver a bit.

  • Just looked like another moment that overwhelmed Mr. Dalton. He looked seriously perplexed by our D.

    EDIT: Just saw a Dalton replay package and he was aiming the ball, not throwing it. Tells me he was uncertain.

  • Hoyer> Dalton.

    Whatever we did it perplexed Dalton. 9 in the box no audible? Obvious 3 yard loss.

    BTW hoyer had a nice audible run left for a TD. Hoyer owned that D in general though.

  • Back to the original topic, we are now in the perfect position of having an excellent, experienced QB with a very good athlete learning the game behind him. Same exact situation New England has had for years. Nothing but good can come from all of that for all involved. JFF is learning that you don't have to carry a whole team on your shoulders (look at A&M faltering now) to have a very good team and BH is learning what it means to be "the Starter". Great situation for the Browns!

    Ah, the voice of reason. That's what a certain poster that got a 10+ page thread going doesn't understand. Hoyer may have been in the league for six years, but he's got less than a full seasons worth of starts. A lot of teams are wishing they were in the Browns situation quarterback wise.

    Wait, those Aggie Dbags counted as fans?

    Ya, I thought the same thing ... it was pretty popular with Browns fans overall.

  • There's nothing wrong with admitting to a mistake (drafting Manziel).

    In Hoyer we trust. He looked incredible last night. Hoyer got that IT factor.

    Couldn't remember how many years Brady sat before starting it all for them, so I looked at ProFootballRef and it was 1 year plus one game. It's what else I found that startled me...

    In the Pats three SB seasons('01, '03, '04) Brady threw for a mere 189.5, 226.3 and 230.8 YPG respectively. Not exactly "elite" numbers... those came later... but the SB win spigot was turned off.

    Not making a Hoyer - Brady talent comparison.

    Am making a numbers comparision.

    Sometimes when a QB does more it does not bring more success...

  • Thanks for the Sipe update. I would also like to mention that Dalton makes beau coup money and has a ton of weapons around him. So what happened last night? The Bengals were exposed!

    DAMN THE TORPEDOES! FULL SPEED AHEAD!

    I disagree that taking Manziel was a mistake. He is a young kid that can use a while to learn the game. And remember, fyi, he is just one play from being our starting QB for the rest of the year. Hoyer went down before, he could go down again. Hopefully not, but it could happen.

    Actually I think this team could possibly use a veteran backup QB. Right now we have just two rookies: JFF and Conner Shaw.....but I also believe that the Browns essentially have Rex Grossman on retainer to come to this team if something happens.
