    He's starting for one reason....70,000 fans chanting his name toward the end of the game. RAC has no choice , whether he buys into or not, if he wants any chance of saving his job. If Brady does well and wins at least 5 of the last 8, RAC might be around next year. Anything other, and he'll be gone as well.

    Somebody quoted Pat Kirwan this morning:

    "You know your team is in trouble when they start listening to the fans"

    Fits Cleveland to a T

    Then leave, bro. You've got no vested interest any longer.

    Seriously.

  • How many times before have those chants happened? Hint: That was NOT the first time. Fan pressure did not dictate this. Derek Anderson did.

    3-5 record, and we didn't know the team was in trouble?

    story is now confirmed on ESPN. The BRAY-DEE chants worked!

    Serious question: Are you sticking around? Part of being a Browns fan is dealing with adversity icon_e_smile.gif

    Of course I'll be watching dipshit. Although now that the Browns have officially given up on the season, it won't be terribly exciting, as I don't own a pink #10.

    Quinn to start Thursday

    The Browns have confirmed that Brady Quinn will make his first NFL start Thursday night when the Browns host the Broncos.

    Quinn, the second of the team's two first-round picks in 2007, will replace Derek Anderson.

    Quinn started two games this preseason but has just one regular-season appearance under his belt, a one-drive cameo in last year's season finale. He went 3-of-8 for 45 yards and the Browns kicked a field goal after Kellen Winslow dropped a pass in the endzone.

    The Browns hope the switch will ignite an offense that was one of the league's best last year but entered Sunday's 37-27 loss to the Ravens ranked 30th in total offense.

    Quinn was 14-of-24 for 106 yards in the Browns' third preseason game against the Lions and 7-of-9 for 65 yards in the preseason finale against the Bears.

  • Bye bye Cumbergh... don't let the door hit you on the ass, pal.

    And let us see who has the better stats after 23 games, shall we? Not 1 - not 2 - but 23, the same they left DumbAss start time and time again to realize how much of a DumbAss he really is.

    HAHA.. Life is good, very good! icon_lol.gif

  • So He's becnhing a guy who threw how many picks in the last 4 games... (1) maybe (2)..?

    THis is the result of bad, bad, bad, coaching...and Milk dud needs a fall guy....Do you think maybe putting in a gameplan that can handle a rookie QB would have helped?.....OVer and OVer again, this coach has mucked up games with his lack of in-game coaching ability...I'm so tired of seeing that same old (I just sh*t my pants) look on this guy...He now throws DA under his big fat bus and hope someone can pull him out of the mees he created...Well, guess what...Quinn will not win a flippin game...He's too small, has no arm strength, and will look exactly like Jeff Garcia, with 6 yard dink and dunk mentality...only cuz he can't see over anyone.......alot of rollouts, ala J. Garcia, alot of quick slants, ala J Garcia, and nothing down the field or deep......Well It appears to be official...and I actually can't wait for B QUinn, to further implode this team.....what you'll hear after thursdays loss is only another out for the big Coach Milk dud....saying it's gonna take time...only to buy his big ass more of it....

    The season officially ended with this QB change....

  • Great first post, crybaby....

    Now go cry me a fooking river, DA wanker.

    And suddenly there's a reason to watch!! Much fun.

    Obama and Quinn, '08.

    shep, care to make any predictions? 3 TDs in the first half?

    Come on Golph, you know DA can do no wrong.

    Best Week Ever: The end of Bush... and the beginning of Quinn. I'm gonna buy some lottery tickets because life is good!

    Guess you better root for the Steelers tonight.

    You mean those that were actually caught or not called back on penalties? The guy who is completing less than HALF of his passes? This move is 3-4 weeks to late.

  • Some f**kin' nerve you got calling the coach out. If it wasn't for Crennel DA wouldn't have been in this long. He's the GUY that gave DA all this time.

  • Anybody can throw zero interceptions when they're being so careful that their completion percentage is also in the gutter. It's hardly an indicator of DA's play that he's had no interceptions.

  • Who changed the title of this thread to include DA the Scapegoat as part of it?!?!?!!? This wasn't what it originally was. If it was a mod with an agenda, that is just lame!

  • Well, I accidentally started a thread trying to make a "the thread" type of title, saw another too late, tried to delete it, and the mods must have merged things.

    Who's going Thursday night??!!

  • It's ATENEARS, almost guarenteed. He's going to be a Cal-Frye on this issue for the next several months. Just be prepared.

    99% of the board is celebrating like crazy... and Ate goes for a misleading title.

    That was me, I fooked it up.

    You guys gotta quit starting a new thread for christ sakes. Post in the one that's going on, we all know it's official.

    If that is the case, all I can say is GROW THE F%*K UP! I didn't realize the board was run by a 12 year old.

    I see it is now changed back.
