No Love for Quinn

The people who want Quinn to have a shot are nothing like lumnuts, they are actual fans of the Browns and will stick with the team no matter who the QB is.No, the people who want Quinn to start are fags who liked watching him play for ND and now want to hump his Fathead poster.
How many times do I have to explain this to you?
Just feel lucky that Randy Lerner is one of you, because if he wasn't BQ would never have ended up in Cleveland, and he certainly wouldn't have ever started a game last season.

I don't watch anything of ND, and I want Quinn to start. There goes that theory.
The reason I want Quinn to start is because of several reasons:
He's local and has been a Browns fan his whole life, QB'ing the browns is more personal to him than it normally would be.
He has outstanding leadership qualities and presence on the field. He deserves his shot. Thats it.

You are right, the people that started DA are out of work. Where are the people that drafted BQ? Oh, the same people that are out of work. Does not really matter but I thought I would just point that out when people mention that the people that started DA got fired.
Not talking about this board really, but I have seen lots of people responding to news articles and on other sites saying that if the Browns trade BQ then they are done with the Browns. That is not from a only here to support DA guy like Lum but from people that claim to be real Browns fans. It may not be the party line here but it sounds like the vocal minority really are more BQ fans than Browns fans on other sites and news article responses.
And I don't get it. What has BQ done to garner such support? He was the 22nd pick in the first round or something close, not the number one pick or even top 10. How does that mean that he should get his chance on the field? It means he is on the team and should compete for his chance on the field.
It is a new regime and you should be able to throw away all descriminations that rac had against BQ and have a true open competition. If everybody on this board is right then DA will fold to the pressure and BQ will rise above it all and show the "it" factor.
It is not me that has said BQ is a leader and DA is not. If that is true then who cares if it is a open competition for the job, because BQ will win it easily, he rises to the occasion and DA folds. If you talk pedigree, BQ has won all the big games he has played and DA hasn't. I mean look at thier bowl record, look at thier record against USC and look at thier head to head record. I mean it all points to BQs pedigree being unquestioned.
I mean forget where the QB is drafted, let them prove it on the field. If DA is traded let the backup challenge BQ for the job and if BQ is traded let the backup challenge DA. It does not matter who we think is better, it really only matters who the coaches think gives them the best shot to compete now and in the future. Niether QB is this regimes guy. The regime that brought in these two QBs are out of work, not just started DA but the ones that drafted BQ also.
If you talk pedigree, BQ has won all the big games he has played and DA hasn't. I mean look at thier bowl record, look at thier record against USC and look at thier head to head record. I mean it all points to BQs pedigree being unquestioned.
Questions are appropriate and harmless. Notre dame did not win a single bowl game while Quinn was at Notre Dame. Fact.
It is what it is. He was playing on a team. They lost one of those games to another team known as The Beavers.

I guess it truly is the barometer of what kind of success a QB will have in the pros.I'll agree with you that the college collapses don't define BQ as an NFL QB.
The fact that he rode pine for 2 years and only saw the field when the owner forced the coach to do it is a much better barometer of what kind of success he can have.

You better pray the Browns trade Quinn, I don't think you'll be able to handle watching your Derek Bear get his ass handed to him in a camp battle, and you know it will happen as evidence by the fact you won't take my bet. You know a camp battle spells D-O-O-M for derek bear....There is one way for BQ to start.... Randy Lerner forcing it.
If Lerner makes Mangini start BQ then DA will ask for a trade.
If Lerner keeps his mouth shut then BQ will ask for a trade.
That's how this shit's gonna go down.

I love it when people throw that one out there.I guess it truly is the barometer of what kind of success a QB will have in the pros.
Just ask Peyton Manning and Rex Grossman......oh wait.
Take a deep breath. Peyton and Rex were playing on teams that lost. So what.
I didn't suggest bowl game losses spell NFL failure. You're forgetting it's a game played by teams.
Remember 11 on offense, 11 on defense. Teams win. Teams lose.

That same coach thought CHARLIE FRYE was a better QB than DA. So once again, you're admiting Charlie Frye is a better QB than DA.coach figured it out after about a quarter.

Only if you consider Crennel a "NFL COACH".
None of us here do but you, apparently.

But that still doesn't account for how good ole Charlie Frye could beat out your snookems in a head to head training camp battle now does it?You forget.
According to RAC, the competition was going to extend into the season.
He didn't declare a winner before week 1.
The winner was named on Tuesday of week 2.

@jadbf said:
RAC had NO CLUE how to handle quarterbacks, which again proves my point that anything he did says NOTHING about the actual ability of ANY of the quarterbacks who played under him.RAC really didn't need to say anything about the ability of his QB....... the pro bowl voters said it for him.

I hope it was better than his 5/40 performance of 07....You must mean the 10/26 game in the Pro Bowl.
You know, the game BQ nation tried and tried to label "the worst game in the history of organized football".
That was until some guy named Quinn took a shit against the Bill and Texans.

Quinn at his worst with a damaged finger and an even more damaged team, wasn't as bad as Derek-bear's worst.
Next.

I seem to remember DA losing the game in Cincy 07 without a broken finger. Guess he must be really terrible.

Oh that's right, derek bear only beats teams that suck out loud and with nothing on the line.Beats them every time. Also beats the Giants, Seahawks, Jaguars.
Meanwhile, Quinn just loses to all teams, shitty or not.

@jadbf said:
really? he didn't win any of his 3 starts??? LOL once again, in his effort to be "funny" Lums falls flat again with the lack of basic knowledge he has.and the Seahawks? are you really trotting out the SEAHAWKS as a quality win?
c'mon it went to overtime!

Only reason that I mentioned pedigree was because I have seen 1 or 2 posters use that word as a reason to start BQ. Since we can all agree that BQ does not have a NFL pedigree I assumed it was his college pedigree that was being talked about. And I wanted to know what in BQs college career screams leader and winner? Did ND win any big games with BQ at the helm? I can agree that it is not BQs fault that ND did not win, but I just want all the talk to stop about BQs pedigree is all.
You can make a case for BQ starting, but not because he is a low first round pick or because he never won a game that mattered at ND. But because DA has proven that he is likely not the answer and that the Browns need to find out if BQ is the answer. I have not seen anything that makes me think BQ is the answer, but I have not seen anything that tells me he is not either. There is not enough of a sample size to know.
If both Qbs are on the team this year then you must have a open competiton. Let the new regime see who they think is the better fit for the team. I don't know who that will be, but I would say that I think that BQ will have the upper hand because he can control a game better. I say that not because I like BQ, because in fact I don't, I say it because it is true. DA is a big play QB and tends to make mistakes when taking chances. I think that the new regime is trying to build with defense and ball control. That is much more up BQs alley than DAs. That is why I think BQ will and prolly should start. Because he will manage the game better and may not win allot of games but he will not lose them either.
That is just an opinion on the type of Qbs they are. I think DA will win you more games than BQ but I also think that he will lose you more games than BQ also. I am not an expert on the new system but I think for the division that the Browns are in you should build with defense and line play and have a QB that will not make as many mistakes. Let the team win you the games and not the QB. For that reason I think BQ will get the starting nod, but if he doesn't then I think people should realize that just maybe he is not that great. Because after all he will just be in competition with DA.
