    If Quinn comes in 32nd out of 32 next season like Anderson did this season, we'll have something to discuss. Until then, we just don't.

    just hope he doesn't throw less than 10 TD passes for a whole season like he was on pace for.

    Wouldn't want to have another Charlie Frye episode at QB, especially when DA showed us all how easy "Any Decent QB" could toss 29.

    It's not about TD passes. My goodness, Thread Assasin, you have returned in force. 🥷

    It's about completion percentage, QB rating and most of all WINS.

    DA did not win enough. It's really all that matters, don't you know?

    Good golly, you are as dogged as you are dense, aren't you?

  • From the first list... Nugent.

    I dont hold DA blameless but their are always other factors like recievers dropping balls and no number two or three recievers, a running game that was non existant along with O line injuries and some pretty predictable offensive playcalling all tend to have an effect on a qb....

    In a small 3 game sample BQ threw ONE pass over ten yards against denver who let EVERY qb rate over 100 against them in a losing effort, and two other horrible games against subpar defensive opponents. That does not mean he is going to be a good or bad qb it just is not enough information to take a franchise who monetarily does not have a lot wrapped into BQ because of his contract into next year with just him and dorsey. Not when DA who is at least a decent backup and possible starter material is also here and can be kept here. Thats a pretty big gamble for a new head coach.

    Like I said Shep and company were wrong last year and clearly biased because of draft hype and still are, they did not trade him last year and looking logically at the contracts with BQ and DA along with a new head coach I have a hard time seeing him not giving himself another qb option that we already have and can afford. Brady had last years preseason games and 3 regular season games and did not exactly light anything up. I think we need more time to see him play against starters and better caliber defenses to make any sort of realistic projection.

    after his first game against a terrible denver d the other teams adjusted and his comp ratings plummeted along with his performance because teams played tight. I would like to see if he can adjust to hit the accurate midrange passes to make teams play defenses honestly. If he cant than he is not NFL starting material, there just is not enough data to dump DA no matter how much fans are in love with Quinn.

    Fans hated Belichick.. 3 super bowls later and also modell who also won a superbowl, the 2000's have 4 superbowl champions from 2 people fans hated in cleveland... listening to fans preferences is like listening to the roman mob.

    Umm if you diddnt know, Brady broke his finger against the Bills (by the way, we won that game) and he continued to play the rest of that game with a broken finger. Then against the houstons (again, I was there at the stadium) Quinn was playing with a broken finger & a torn tendon in that finger on his throwing hand, an Injury that sidelined Tony Romo for four weeks this year. Quinn is a games and wanted to play despite him being injured. We did not see the real BQ in Houston, we saw the injured BQ, who still threw a 40 yd. pass to Braylon that cold day.

    Im about to make a thread regarding Quinns arm strength because this is pissing me off

    Name the last big-armed QB with a pea-brain that was good in the NFL on a consistent basis.

    Every QB...who already had a number of games under their belt. Not a guy who is getting his first start on 3 DAYS of practice. There's a big difference. Are you paying attention to what I just wrote, or will you conveniently ignore it?

    Like I said Shep and company were wrong last year and clearly biased because of draft hype and still are, they did not trade him last year and looking logically at the contracts with BQ and DA along with a new head coach I have a hard time seeing him not giving himself another qb option that we already have and can afford.

I think we need more time to see him play against starters and better caliber defenses to make any sort of realistic projection.

    Another QB option that has already proven he isn't very good? What does this other option get you? The 'new coach' doesn't like big-armed, inaccurate, inconsistent guys. Mangini was the worst possible hire for DA.

    For some reason you think 28 games isn't enough to judge Anderson on, yet 1 healthy game and 2 injured games are enough to judge Quinn on?

    And, as usual, you fall back on 'clearly biased', because you don't have any real argument to stand on. We have a body of work on Anderson that is JUST LIKE his entire career. You're like the abused wife hoping the husband will 'change' if you give him one more chance.

    after his first game against a terrible denver d the other teams adjusted and his comp ratings plummeted along with his performance because teams played tight. I would like to see if he can adjust to hit the accurate midrange passes to make teams play defenses honestly. If he cant than he is not NFL starting material, there just is not enough data to dump DA no matter how much fans are in love with Quinn.

    Quinn already showed he can make accurate midrange passes when healthy, not to mention he was injured in the first series against BUF (thank DA's buddy Hank for that). You seem to think if he can't make accurate midrange passes, he isn't starting material, yet DA, who can't make accurate midrang OR short passes is?

    Fans hated Belichick.. 3 super bowls later and also modell who also won a superbowl, the 2000's have 4 superbowl champions from 2 people fans hated in cleveland... listening to fans preferences is like listening to the roman mob.

    Big. xxxxing. Deal. What does Belichick winning Superbowls prove? I get it. Because we hated Belichick and he won Superbowls, Anderson is destined for great things, if we JUST wait another 12 or 15 years. And you're supposed to be 'logical'?

    Do you want the list of all the guys we 'hated' who went on to suck after leaving CLE and aren't in the NFL? It's a lot longer than yours of ones who had success.

    The fact you even reference Modell, like we 'ran' him off, shows how much of a 'fan' you are. When Anderson is gone, you will be too. It's convenient you showed up around the same time as all the other Beavers pimping Anderson.

    So Anderson is likely staying on the roster. You know what? This is actually a very good thing in terms of trade value. Sure, the guy's performance has certainly lowered that, but if teams knew Anderson was just going to be cut in March, they would simply wait and sign him off the couch. The fact that he'll likely stay on the roster actually gives Anderson some value, as teams who were once (or still are) interested in Anderson now must enter trade talks.
