It's Hoyer
-
He got pulled once this year.
Anyway, it isn't all brians fault. When this offense was clicking he had a 7TD 1INT (int that was a punt basically). Hopefully our offense can get back to that groove.
If we struggle moving the ball (or finishing in the red zone) early maybe we see the johnny package. Turnovers will get him canned early I think, though.

The more I think about it, the more I think this decision is more based on Hoyer than Johnny.
In other words, Hoyer has been the consummate pro, worked hard, contributed, played great in the last 3 minutes of games. No matter what Pettine's thoughts of who is better now, he is being loyal to the guy who lead them into the playoff race.
I get that and admire it, Hoyer should be rewarded for his work with this start in a huge game. As much as I want to see Johnny play, I get the logic of playing Hoyer.

We better slow Indy down because no way Hoyer puts up 35+ on them.
-
Ok. How many bad quarters until we hear "give us Barabbas?"

We already called for Barabbas.. Barabbas=Hoyer
-
If Hoyer plays like The Hoyer of late does he even make it to halftime?
-
No matter but the coach is going to really look like a dick if this doesn't work.

The good news for Brian is that he has shown the ability to perform well in clutch situations......and this will be his ultimate opportunity to show that.....
So.....Time to go big or go home....

Was thinking the same thing Mud.
We need the Hoyer that played the Steelers at home. And being that was Mack's last game, someone to fill those shoes so that Hoyer can return. Otherwise, find a way Brian. Find a way to win.

Let's make a prediction, how long does Hoyer last in this game?
I think Indy goes up 21-0, Hoyer is pulled at halftime and The Browns lose 35-17 after it's too late.
-
I think JFF in by halftime at the latest.

Only 21-0

Agree... clutch in game situations, but as I remember Pre-season, not so great in job situations. BH did not show promise until named the starter. Let's hope the game factor outweighs the job factor...
BH now knows that not only is his position on the line, but his multiyear, bigger bucks contract as well. The best don't cave so if he plays well (even in a loss) then he shows he can handle it all and the Browns have their QB. But he plays them right out of the playoffs because he screws the pooch, it's all over and back to holding JM's famous non-existent clipboard.

What sucks is Manziel will be thrown in later in the game after having no 1st string reps and having to pass every down. I say let Hoyer burn and crash the entire 60 minutes.
There's a good Browns fan, right there.

Other than the loyalty bit, which has zero to do with anything, IMO, I agree...

Part of starting Hoyer is that if the good Hoyer shows up Sunday, our drives will be long, we will consume clock and keep Luck on the sideline. Like Manning before him that is the only way to "slow Indy down".
