    I'm your Huckleberry.

  • How about not drafting a QB this year even if Colt isnt the guy? Maybe, just maybe for once we can get our other holes on offense filled so that we dont throw our next young QB in there with no help and ruin him like every other QB the browns have had in the expansion era

    I don't disagree Gipper...but if Colt continues to struggle, what do we do at QB next year? Do we build up the rest of the team and go after an Orton or a Campbell or some other retread to come in and compete with Colt?

    You follow the Steeler model. Despite having many idiot fans, the Steelers organization certainly knows what it is doing.

    You build up the rest of that team, particularly the defense and running game. And you live with the QB you have. If the Steelers could live with Kordell Stewart and Tommy Maddox while building up the championship caliber team, the Browns can live with Colt McCoy.

    When they got BR as a rookie, they went 15-1. And BR in his first couple of years was a below average at best QB, but they went 15-1 and then won the SB.

    If after another year or two and McCoy looks more like Maddox than Montana, then you bring in your franchise QB in the first round.

    FYI, all the QBs that are expected to be at the top of the draft in 2012 could actually all stay in school for another year including Luck, Barkley, Landry Jone, Robert Griffin etc. etc. I doubt they all will, but they could. So we don't know who will be available in April 2013's draft.

    It is funny you missed the Steeler model completely, especially the idiot fans part while ignoring how more ignorant our fans are, but , and the Steelers even wrote a book about it............................but that is why we Browns fans have lost all identilty with winning and continue year after year justtify a strategy of losing.......................and our management bought into to fans stupidity while Steeler Management just keeps doing what it takes to win...........................mostly opposite of Browns strategy

    Actually, it is YOU who has missed the Steeler model....i.e. the Steeler model of the 2000s, not the 1970s. That team had everything else IN PLACE, then plugged in the final piece at QB.

    The 2005 Steelers could have won the SB with Pinochio as the QB....and fact, they virtually did. Now, that Pinochio went on later to become a real boy....i.e. a real QB...but their model was to build up an outstanding defense and run game, then worry about the passing attack as the last item on their agenda...and THAT is what the Steeler management did to win.

    Sorry, but you seem to be lost in that fog out in San Fran over this.

  • is the QB really the problem? i know the new coach probably wants his own QB but changing QBs every 2 years is about the dumbest thing an organization could do...i guess thats why their the browns tho
