i see keeping DA around as a 3rd stringer as a problem...

I don't know about that...

I like that one Dan. That is creative.

And you really think DA will throw 7 picks in the preseason. I will take that bet in a second.

If they have a true QB competition then I actually have no idea who would win, though I do lean towards Brady Quinn. Probably depends on the coaching staffs preferred style and if they think that the running game can win games or if the QB has too.

What does that say about a Browns fan who posts the same "smack" pics as Stooler fans?

That's it! Lumbergh is SChuck! SChuck is Lumbergh! Lumbergh is a Steeler fan!!!

DA ain't throwin a ton of picks in the pre-season. No pressure, back-up off the bench situations is where he excels.

Inspecta...I choose 5 as my over/under for DA. I know he can knock that out easily in one game, even with whatever amount of playing time he will see in preseason.

Dan that is an awesome photoshop of DA.

Lumbnuts...Quinn can touch all the man junk he wants as long as he wins us some football

Yes. I'd ask DA, but I know his hands will be busy with you.

Nice!!

ESPN is running with this, too. The only thing this really tells me is Mangini thinks Quinn has promise and wants to see more.

Fact of the matter is there WILL be a QB competiton this summer, regardless of what everyone here thinks. I for one am excited to see what Quinn has and to see if DA has improved at all.

I think Quinn is a much better fit for this team, based on draft, signings and OC, and expect Quinn to win out eventually, but there will still be a competition. If DA ends up prevailing, this says a ton about Quinn.

BTW, anybody have ESPN premium? The have a rumor that it's "Quinn over Anderson for Browns QB."

Again, assuming Daboll tailors the offense to the presumed starter, Quinn... it's self-fulfilling. Anderson can't really play that WCO style.

I think I've found out how to make Anderson the #1 passer in the NFL, whoever we're playing that week, just put the opponent's name as payee on his check.

We'll never need Quinn again and Lummy can ride off posting into the sunset.

The ESPN article is basically a summary of what Grossi said. That someone who is not affiliated with an NFL team said that the Browns turned down two first round offers. The source said that Quinn will be the starter in week 1 even though the same source admitted that there will be an open competition. Nothing new really. Just re-wording what has already been said.
