Lums I couldn't disagree with you more. There wasn't 1 hired commentator that thought Quinn looked anything less than excellent.your fixation on completion percentage shows why everybody loved Charlie Frye so much.

Just remember DA was 0-3 in his first 3 starts in 2006 and the 3rd start was a 4 INT performance vrs a bad TB team we ended up coin flipping for the #3 overall pick in 2007. I gotta believe THAT as the alternative to Charlie Frye is the BIGGEST reason our staff moved Heaven and Earth to trade back up into round 1 and draft Brady Quinn in 2007.
If DA was doing the job, I wouldn't have witnessed 4 INTs that went for TDs in the last 3 Ratbird matchups. Dude, that's brutal. We didn't need to trade Charlie Frye away if that's all we were asking for. Then again, you're always the one telling everone what a genious Phil Savage is as I witnessed a QB hitting up our defense without a pass rush for 500 yards.

Flugs, we saw what a real QB looks like tonight. Wonder how many games we could have won with him in there?

Like Cowher says - keep it in perspective.

Uh, aren't you the win who used to bash the Browns for playing Dumbass instead of Queen?
Excuse us for liking what we saw out of a guy getting his first start. Serioulsly Chuck, do we look like we're giddy and all happy go lucky right now?
Where's the famous Chubby chucker brain power?

I admit I was very impressed with BQ, but I still stand by my points that we need another WR, RB and head coach. This "one yard and a cloud of dust" and "ok, it's the 4th quarter, let's give them the game" strategy is killing me.
Notice how many balls went Edwards way? BQ learned from DA, do NOT throw him the ball.
Winslow will probably be going to the Pro Bowl again thanks to BQ.

Tell ya what scared me most about this guy - it was the after-game press conference.
He came off like a dumb kid, IMO.
He starts losing games in a bad way and the media/fans will slaughter him.

What the hell are you talking about? He came off just fine in that Press Conference. I liked what I heard, he expected to move down and win the game. When he didnt he took responseability for not getting it done. That is the leader I want for this team. You worry about Ben and we will worry about Brady.

Sure Chubs, he's a real dumbass.

I didn't get to watch the game except the last 5 minutes. But BQ appeared to have played a good game. Completed high percentage of passes and looked online like he converted several 3rd downs. His Yards per throw was low but that was expected. I am glad I have KII on my fanasty team but looks like I should drop BE.
To be fair to DA he had only thrown 1 int in last 4 games i think and that was a game ender on the screen. He had the Browns with 27 points against a much tougher Ravens team and a 135 passer rating going into the fourth quarter.
With my defense of DA done. I would have to say that BQ seemed like he showed alot for a FIRST start. Will be curious how he looks after 8 games.
Lum just say, GOOD GAME BQ. Too bad about end result. Looks like the Browns can hopefully draft some defense from the picks they get for DA. And yes I do think that DA will garner some picks. prolly a 2nd and a 5th.

Not sure DA will garner that much value, teams may be more content to wait for him to be released.
He's still a value to a team in need of a QB, especially those with pro sets.

If this was 2 hand touch we win that game rather easily.Even though we lost Do you know what was refreshing as Hell?
1) 0 INTs from our QB that went for TDs or just 0 INTs for that matter
2) When Braylon dropped the ball - I didn't have to worry if our passer could hit 1 more receiver in the hands.
3) No sacks given up w/ a QB that bought time with pocket presence and made plays.
4) 30 points.
5) No consecutive 3 and outs with many a sustained drive.
6) According to Collinsworth, Denver players said they'd RATHER face DA and that's because the watched game film of how easy he is to stop. Just being honest.
You what concerned me?
1) Why did Denver's 3rd string defense tackle BETTER than over overpaid defense?
2) The 2007 D'Qwell Jackson returned the last 2 weeks and that's not good. ZERO plays from our Inside backers just does not cut it.
3) Jerome Harrison averaged 11 yards a carry so by all means don't let him tough the ball more than 5 times.
4) The way our defense was playing - why didn't we just let them score faster so we had enough time for the final drive? RAC seems like a fun guy to play chess against and that's not good for us.
5) Our front 7 except for Willie McGinest - didn't show up tonight.
6) Blown coverages up the wazoo. The reason you don't see many 93 yard TD receptions is because there's ALOT more sound coverage schemes than we saw on that play to the rookie Eddie Royal.
7) Alot of BAD football players were REALLY overrated by Savage on defense starting with #99. Savage was acting like he was a Superstar and I don't think he was good enough to start for that injury depleted defense we faced. I'm being honest.
ALL our LBers where tackling shoulder high all night, which means they're a fundamental disaster right now. Willie was the only one hitting with his shoulder but the problem is he's only a couple years younger than Willie Nelson.I'll end with a positive, I didn't expect Quinn to look as sharp as he looked. Usually when you score 30 points - it's enough to win unless your defense gives up 500 yards passing.
- Tom F. (I'm guessing Loverboy was a HUGE Denver fan tonight even though he HATES being reminded DA started out 0-3 with 4 INTs in his 3rd start vrs a 4-12 TB team in 2006. Crappy QBing like that is why we drafted Quinn in the first place)
two very very good points....
2) The 2007 D'Qwell Jackson returned the last 2 weeks and that's not good. ZERO plays from our Inside backers just does not cut it.

Probowl????

I know Riff! I think we would have scored MORE than 6 points vrs Pitt and I don't think we would have treated Balt's defense to 3 INTs for TDs in 2008. I think we might have won 2 more games. We would have been destroyed tonight if DA started.
Quinn looked awesome! It's nice watching a QB move the chains consistently. Think about it - he made the precise throws on 3rd downs that woudl have moved the chains when Winslow fumbled and when Winslow got busted for the offensive interference/pick play.
Quinn's only going to get better while when DA played all we kept asking each other every week is can it actually get any worse? There was 1 exception to the rule vrs NY.

Anderson wins that game Flugs. You know it.Romeo tossed BQ a softball with a terrible depleted Broncos team. And BQ whiffed.
LMFAO.... DA throws that ball at over Stallworths head, panics on that throw to Lewis and Winslow, and misses Winslow in the flats on the 2nd TD.
Get over it Lum..
Notice no confusion in the huddle, line, or delay of games.

I will be sack it up now and say it, at the risk of looking like a fool later. Quinn is a real NFL QB (a leader)!

As Steve Mariucci correctly pointed out, if Brady Quinn can't complete a pass longer than 10 yards he's going to have problems in this league.
Wow, you mean the growing number of people supporting Quinn who beleive he is better that Anderson?

As Mark S. said on Sportscenter tonight, it sounds cliche, but good QBs take what the D gives them. Quinn did that tonight.

That he did. Too bad our defense gave them the game.

We have another RB - the coaches get mad at him when he performs and bench him.

Which makes Savage look even dumber. Not only did we miss out on possible a 1st round choice, or maybe even a second, there is a good bet we won't get anything out him.
Nice on, Phil.

Quinn looked better then expected for his prep time and lack of NFL experience. We know Denver stinks, but Quinn is a film rat and he didn't have a chance to study much with the short turn around.
And don't worry about the dink-and-dunk game plan Chud put in place last night. Quinn threw plenty of long balls at ND averaging an ND record of 240 yards passing per game. You can't do that by checking down to the short receiver as your MO.
We'll be ok at QB now, it's just deflating to see the season slip away.
