    - Quinn ran the 2-minute drill yesterday and completed six short passes (4 to Lewis and 2 to Royal) to set up a field goal. Anderson did NOT run the 2-minute... it was Ratliff instead (who failed).

    According to this report, Ratliff got the field goal in 2-min. Not Quinn.

    Ratliff also worked the two-minute offense and led the Browns to a Dawson field goal.

    Also, once again Quinn doesn't make any big plays. But Anderson does as usual.

    Play of the Day: A highlight play came when QB Derek Anderson threw a deep pass down the left sideline. RB James Davis made a one-handed catch after beating his defender. WR Lance Leggett also made a nice grab when he dove near the sidelines on an Anderson pass.

    Another bad week of practice for the Quinnster. No deep balls. Poor accuracy. Picks.

    Some might describe him as having had the "wheels fall off"

    Umm, these plays highlight the play of the receiver.

    Quinn completed 6 straight passes for a field goal in the 2-minute. That's a good thing. He's been completing deep balls all over the place the last two weeks. Remembering the flop sweat you broke trying to say they don't matter?

    CBS Rapid Reports yesterday:

    4:12:45 pm Browns QB Brady Quinn has thrown four straight short passes to RB Jamal Lewis in the two-minute drill, but hasn't shown accuracy on tosses more than 20 yards throughout camp. He just overthrew Josh Cribbs long.

    Sounds like Quinn is separating himself......from the starting QB job.

    completed 6 "straight" shorties, or 6 shorties total?

    I don't see the word "straight" in there. Maybe you can enlighten us shep?

    Quinn completed four passes to Jamal Lewis and two to Martin Rucker on the drive."

    How are you gonna write this and post a link that contradicts what you said? Maybe you should try to do something we call reading. I know its kinda hard to read when your too busy staring at a naked poster of DA.

  • @jadbf said:

    Once again, DA NEEDS everyone around him playing at their career best for him to shine.

    This is what we call putting your playmakers in position to make plays.

    Sadly this is something that Quinn has not done and does not appear to be getting to that point anytime soon either.

    Or, in DA's reality, over/underthrowing them to the point where they NEED to make the spectacular play for the completion.

    NO that is what we call being carried by your playmakers.

    yeah and for some reason no other QB in Cleveland for the last 25 years has been able to get "carried by his teammates" the way Anderson has.

    Anderson gets carried by his teammates. Everybody else gets screwed over by their teammates.

    Amazing coincidence isn't it?

    I have been harping on that one since the end of the 2007 season. You started to see the frustration of those from BE, KW, and JJ at the end of that season. Then in 2008 both KW and BE start dropping balls they used to catch. Maybe a coincidence, but I have never thought so.

    You've gotta remember who you're talking about. If it involves a Browns QB and it is good, Lumnuts automatically relates it to his boyfriend. It's not his fault...He has a condition he cannot control...He's gay and in love/lust/whatever with DA. Or he's just a puppet as many on here have suggested and his sole purpose is to get people to reply to his extremely ignorant posts. Either way, puppet or not, doesn't matter. He'll be gone soon enough (or not soon enough depending on how you want to view it).

  • Playmakers make plays simple put. I dont believe we have seen Quinn enough to decide if he is a playmaker. Maybe when he starts the first few games we will see.

    Quinn fans could/would say this for the next 20 years.

    But Quinn's playing time isn't dependent on whether his fans think they've seen enough of him or not.

    If he can make big plays, he's gonna have to do it in front of his coach, or he ain't even gonna get a shot to try it in a game.

    After every Browns win I have this weird feeling he's gonna come in and piss on every celebratory thread with a "Quinn sure missed the hell outta that one pass in the 3rd Quarter, Browns suck!!"

    And turn into a full blown troll...

    Are you saying I'd do something similar to what you and BQ Nation have done for the past 2+ seasons?

    Put in Quinn!!! We only put up 40 on the Dolphins!!! Did you see that one shitty pass after his 3rd TD pass!!! Quinn woulda put up 60!!!

    If your goal has been balance on your forum, how's that going?

  • This thread perfectly illustrates what I was trying to say in "the other thread".

    Lum riles up the masses, they respond (me included all too often), and the intelligent football talk goes down the toilet.

    Its good entertainment. I can sift through it and even enjoy the banter. However, there's no denying it degrades the quality football talk. So, I scratch my head at those who appear to be so offended by the "Quinnies" when they probably wouldn't exist without Lum. 😉

    It's a wonder that Momass didn't get hurt last Saturday. He got smashed.
