  • What do you expect the rest of the team to say ? DA is still on the team, they're not going to say that they're glad he got benched or that they wanted Brady to start for weeks. They have to be politically correct in what they say to the media so that they don't get themselves in trouble with the FO or their teammates.

    (EDIT: On topic)

  • Standard answer. Smart move when someone is shoving a recorder in your face.

    They support DA because he is a teammate. He still is a teammate. Da is still on the roster.

    Here's the next player quote concerning Quinn;

    "Brady's a good guy and a good qb. He works heard every week in practice to make sure he's ready in case something were to happen to DA. Now he's the starter and it's our job to go out there and get the job done. Doesn't matter who starts at what position, the job is the same."

    They picked a great week to make the change. 3 days? But for all we know this was the plan all along barring injury or an 0-4 start (apparently we were ok with an 0-3)! DA gets half the year and BQ gets half. Regardless of which guy you like it only makes sense to see them both in action before you're forced to make a decision at the end of the year.

    I know we've all been debating the whole trade value thing... I think Phil let that go weeks ago. He rented DA for a year. Now he'll see BQ. 8 more weeks and I hope we have an answer to the position.

    Or maybe Phil busted out the calculator. Maybe he didn't make this move sooner because he wanted to make sure BQ didn't have a lot of time to hit a lot of the incentives in his contract for this year. Crazier things have happened.

  • Fraley is confident Quinn will be ready to step into the spotlight.

    "He's young, so you don't know what to expect but he has worked hard and he'll be ready," Fraley said. "Derek and the other quarterbacks are always together, 24-7. Brady is always prepared because as a backup you are always one play away. He's been doing it the whole season.

    "I know Brady has been waiting for his turn and I'm not sure this is the way he envisioned getting it. We're going to play hard for whoever is back there, and now it's Brady."

    Mort on ESPN says this Thursday makes more sense for a Quinn start as the Bills Monday night in Buffalo is a taller order.

    Now this is what is called the "standard answer"

    You homos who've tried to say that Fraley's statement "it's a shock" is a standard answer are lost in a Naked Brady Quinn dream like Mike Golic......You can be my hero baby to the tune of Enrique Iglesias

    (EDIT: Now he reaches to the level of the posters who have baited him this far, but he is staying within the topic.)

  • Seriously? Fighting that we are taking out a QB that can barely make more than 1 complete pass in a game for a QB that showed a lot of promise and passion in the preseason? All in all even if BQ doesn't live up to his potential, it's highly unlikely that he will do any worse than DA. I mean come on, we are "fans" right? So shouldn't we want the best for our team? DA obviously isn't getting the job done if they had to bench his multi-million dollar contract butt and put in the second string. Last time I checked Browns coaches did know a little about football even if it doesn't seem like it some games.

    (EDIT: Someone asserts a level head, very good ... unfortunately, this member probably left the forum shortly after, never to be heard from again.)

    Truth be known, Fraley hasn't played all that well this year either, and he's a captain. A few more games of whiffing against guys like Ngata and he won't have a job, either.

    You either perform in the NFL or not, what your buddy teammates have to say means shit.

    (EDIT: On topic, about Fraley and his comments look like a miss today, but on topic)

    Is a pig's ass pork?

  • What the fuck does Fraley care who's behind center? Just give the ball to the fuking quarterback and shut your fat piehole you washed up nub.

    Well sure, all of these guys take the Crash Davis course of talking to the media.

  • This is the right move weather is works out or not. We have to see what we have in Quinn and this is the perfect spot. We still have a chance this year, all be it a small chance so we will not be playing 2nd string players and we will get a true evaluation on Quinn. One of these QB's will be gone next year and we have to know what we have in Quinn.

    Now Lum, I have a feeling you will be rooting for Quinn and the Browns to fail so you can say I told you so. The only reason I bring that up is because you stated that about everyone that was calling for Quinn. I backed Anderson every game because is was the BROWNS QB even though I thought we needed a change. We will soon see!!

    (EDIT: I have no problem with this, he addresses Lums, but not with a ball bat)

  • Okay Lums, now you're just trolling, clean it up and stop acting like a complete ass or your posts will continue to disappear. Play your games, but enough of the "Browns fans root to lose and the QB to fail" bullshit.

    Your act is beyond old and tired, you have become stupid Pitt fan.

    (EDIT: ROFLMAO, now the Mod steps in to reprimand Lums and informs 'him' to clean it up ... what was that about you guys saying that we fueled Lums, backed Lums and that is why you all continued???)

    Is a pig's ass pork?

  • At least he didn't say, "I've never been on a team that benched a Pro-Bowl Quarterback."

    He had some choice stuff earlier too. He's not going to insult Browns fans on this board like an idiot for his own agenda.

    I've DEBATED putting him & the other DA (only) supporters on the IGNORE/FOE list like the other Trolls that wish the Browns to FAIL!

    I'm sticking with Mangini & Amber

    'You homos'???? Are you twelve sir?

  • You guys really have to get over your fascination with the #2 QB.

    Isn't that what you've been saying for 26 games, Lums?

    That one left a mark.

    Somebodies ass is really sore right now.

  • I never post in these Lumbergh threads. I 've never understood how he gained such a foothold here. He plays the same note over and over and it's boring. I can see where it might have been entertaining at first but now it's like hitting the badminton birdie back over the net for the 77,000th time.

    Once again I could not agree with you more

    ...and the rest of the team. Did you read the quote?

    Hank is a TEAM player, what did you expect him to say?

    "Well it was no suprise he couldn't avoid rushers with that Lumms guy hanging in between his legs. We all say how bad Dumb Ass was doing and couldn't wait for the change."

    3 seasons until our new head coach, let's hope they get it right this time.

  • I hope you all enjoyed this trip down memory lane ..... this thread is going to be closed because we don't expect anyone to come back and say, "Gee, I guess I could have handled myself a bit better", naaa, we just expect the same smart-ass remarks.

    I just hope you all took a real good look at this thread though. How a group of people, chimmed in with a couple of Steeler fans, can gang-bang one guy (maybe two ... even a 3rd) all because of a quote supporting a Browns QB

    You should be ashamed, and Mod's I hope you start gaining the balls to bounce some of these guys out of here that have been here for several years now and contributed heavily in souring this thread, 100's of threads like it, and this once proud forum.

    EDIT: Keep in mind that once this thread was brought to light that some members deleted their comments from the thread, perhaps out of embarrassment.
