It's Hoyer
-
How many are in last place in their division?
How many have quarterbacks rated in the bottom 3 or 4 in the league?
I'm not even talking about replacing him until next season. Still I think at the very least we'd want someone above average.
(and he might all of a sudden get better the last 4 games. If he does I wonder what the problem was up til now )
WSS
I thought the Browns were tied for 2nd in the division?
If Hoyer shits to bed against the Colts, I would hope that JF plays out the season as a starter.
With a 12th ranked offense & an 18th ranked defense, I would say our record is indicative of an average team at this point.
However, I'm still of the mindset that the Browns are more than just a QB away from being a good team.

at the beginning of the year to say the depth at some positions would be a problem i might have agreed about the C but it just goes to show you how a team is bigger than the first guy in line. we need to replenish the DL and the OL next year. forget the big money FA RB bullshit. get us some beef on dem lines!

I was thinking the same thing.
It must be the Browns fan in me to start thinking draft in December, but here's my 2 pennies.
The game is won & lost at the LOS, so with that in mind I'm thinking we're going to need 2 good DL and at least another stud OL.
With the remaining picks, we need help at linebacker.

And I'm not a fan of excuses but I don't think this Sunday's game is a particularly good test.
Maybe if he really shits the bed but just losing is probably to be expected. It depends on the reasons I guess. But remember a lot of you guys use nothing but the win loss record as criteria.

i think you're confusing the fact that some of us think hoyer deserves to keep his job because of the W-L record with the fact that he's sucked ass the last 4 games. i don't think there is a blind love for hoyer like there is for manziel. most of the hoyer supporters know this is his make or break game and if he can't man up and look good he'll probably be shown the door. is it right or wrong? i don't know and i don't care.
the problem i have (and i won't speak for others) is when the browns finally look like they have some semblance of an offense and a QB that can win, the trap door falls out from underneath the guy and once again the team and the fans are unsure about the #1 position of this franchise. so it's back to the drawing board for yet another year of spin the QB wheel cuz 2 possessions for are rookie against the slag the bills threw out there on D in the last 4 minutes of the game last week didn't sway me one way or another to think that the 22nd pick was good or not. only time will tell and as a brown's fan i'm sick of hearing that.

let's not forget the kicking game.

No doubt, I've never been a fan of Cuntlips.
There's a kicker in the SEC (can't recall his name) that's been lights out.
He can probably be had for a late round pick.

I don't see this as being posted already. But Shanahan took Joe Thomas's words to heart,
about who should start next week.
He nailed it.

Well lets say that when Brian Hoyer is named MVP of a couple Super Bowls I will put them in the same category. If and when that happens I'll drive to Florida to buy you a beer.
WSS
Fair enough, but you can't win any Super Bowls when you haven't finished a season yet, so isn't it an unfair premise to ask us to compare him to the current Super Bowl winning QBs in the first place?
He has similar game to Eli ... with the right defense, running game and a few lucky bounces who knows? I guess we'll find out if the plug isn't pulled.
Hoyer through 16 career starts is 10-6 4,287 yards, 18 Tds 16 Int, 79 Rating
Mannings first 16 starts he was 7-9, his first full year as a starter he had 3,762 yards 24Tds 16 Int 75.9 rating
Zombo
That's all true. But of course Eli was how old and brian is how old? And yes indeed if the rest of the team kicks ass and the ball bounces your way you can get to the Superbowl with Rex Grossman or Trent Dilfer. If that's the plan great. Taking a hit on a king 10 is a plan too. Of course in those situations you have to hit that window of opportunity like Leroy Kelly hit the hole. Not the way Willis McGahee hit the hole.Zombo said:

Will that window of opportunity still be open next year? Let's hope so.
We have a lot better team and team effort this season than we have had in many years in my opinion. And we have run quarterback after quarterback out of town for similar performance.
Still 30 hours from now everything will be much clearer.
We can bite one of the best teams in the league in the ass or.....

i think given everything the browns have been up against this year the team has performed quite well. time to gel as a unit was obviously not there at the beginning of the season, especially on the defensive side. injuries, the suspension and injuries, the clamoring for QB change and injuries........i'm surprised we've got the record we do.
does the FO, pettine and staff along with all the brown's fan base wish we had a peyton manning, tom brady or aaron rodgers? of course we do. but have you seen any of those guys when they don't have time to throw? i have and they sure as hell don't look like world beaters. also i think pettine is doing the best he can given the fact that he has a QB on the bench that the owner leaned towards, half of friggin america wants to start and he has to weigh the fact the kid isn't as good as the eternal backup QB who is now our starter.
i hope they get this shit figured out in the offseason. i don't care who they cut ties with as long as we have a cemented starter who doesn't have to worry about some alfred e. neuman rookie making money signs from the bench. go with one or the other and ship the other off to france for all i care.

But let's not make the decision just because you're mad about Johnny. I think the Alfred E Newman line pretty much sums up your opinion and many of the guys here.
Personally I want to see the money sign 5 times every game at least.
Somebody bitched to "act like you've been there before". Well he hasn't. First time in an NFL end zone? What would you do? Apologize?
As for smarmy music I'm sure I've written some shit that would make you cringe from embarrassment.

Sorry for my redundant post. If that's the first time its happened I'm surprised. Oh well.I've seen a lot of double posts in my forum days, but the "forgot-I-already-replied-only-three-posts-earlier" double is a new one...
Anyway... neither Dilfer nor Johnson went undefeated during the regular season preceding their SB runs.
I'm not demanding we go undefeated. I'm saying that it bothers me to lose a game by pocket change if a little better play would have won it. Or in the case of winning a squeaker. It would be nice to have a little cushion. I don't know why it upsets some of you guys.
Looks by the time stamp that I was distracted around 1 o'clock and probably forgot till I got back at 4.

Save it for a meaningful circumstance? I don't care for the "money sign", but I channel my conservative streak differently than many here. Five TDs a game minus it would be just as awesome. I suspect as JM matures it'll fall by the wayside...
Alfred E. Newman wasn't immature, just an idiot. I don't think many here believe idiocy is JM's biggest obstacle.

A no worries it didn't piss me off. If it had I would have responded with something referring to my dick as per usual around here.
B hey I thought it was a cute post!
C meaningful conversation? Dude I was talking to Mik.
But the way I see it the term immature is something somebody uses if they don't have anything solid against the kid.
didn't one of the Browns players get flagged for taunting last week? I don't remember any of you guys shitting your pants over that. Maybe I just didn't see it...

Gordon got the "taunting" flag... the play after the Bills' player got one...
The reaction in a couple threads here was rightly very critical of Josh. Fortunately he made up for by running a wrong route later... Hoyer's 2nd INT.

Oh I'm hip to the bad route. Now that's one thing that he and Gordon can get together that would improve Hoyer's game.
On the other hand he's missed lots of different receivers that he's had all season to work with. But seriously this really could be the key to his success. We will know in 25 hours.
Still while we are in excuse mode Johnny had two passes at least bounce off the receivers hands. No excuse for that either.

Not sure how when the WR himself says he ran the wrong route, that qualifies for "excuse mode", but whatever...
Unless you were counting JM's "infumpletion", only one drop actually... to Dray (S13P2) in JM's second series.
One other you may be trying to call a drop was too wide of Benji (S12P5). He barely got a finger tip on it. After play-action left, JM 1/4-rolled right and had pressure in his face and his footwork was well off. Pass still had "some" zip, but wobbled a tad and was wide of the mark. It was his only pressure and, quite understandably, the only time his mechanics were "off".
Two completions were helped by nice catches. Dray had great concentration to complement JM's best throw of the game on the deep seam. The only time he targeted Gordo, Josh had to reach behind him on a square in. It was a catch Josh would be expected to make.
