<![CDATA[Former Browns bust Brady Quinn gives up playing for broadcast booth]]>http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/former-browns-bust-brady-quinn-gives-up-playing-career-for-broadcast-booth-185814040.html

"Ahhh, remember when Brady Quinn fell so far in the first round of the 2007 NFL draft, and the Cleveland Browns supposedly got a steal with the 22nd pick? Well, the first 21 teams were proven right (and Johnny Manziel just went 22nd to the Browns after a first-round slide, if you believe in bad omens).
Quinn never became a functional NFL quarterback, but still ended up getting jobs through last season. He couldn't find another NFL team to pay him for this season, so Fox hired the former Notre Dame star as a studio analyst.
Apparently this is Fox's reaction to ESPN's SEC Network hiring Tim Tebow. And ESPN got the better quarterback in that deal. Quinn had a shocking 64.4 rating (Blaine Gabbert is 66.4, for comparison) and was 4-16 as a starter. Usually a quarterback's record means almost nothing, but Quinn didn't do much to help his teams.
Cleveland, Denver, Kansas City, the Jets and St. Louis all employed Quinn over the past seven regular seasons, and he was also with Seattle last preseason. The Rams and Jets had him on their rosters for a bit last regular season. But when he couldn't find another team this offseason, Quinn decided to embark on a new career."

It's time for him to come back home. No one here was ever mad at Tom Flugel, ever. He went down that paranoid tube with the rest of them, which was a real shock.

Flugel, meet us in Cleveland for Sundays game.

Hey Stan.

Sorry, just came across this thread for the first time. Seriously though, like Zombo said, If you guys could only come to terms with that fact that Lumbergh was not one of us as an imposter, but a real person (at least I think, unless the jokes on me), you would see what a paranoid prick Inspecta was and his pussy ... err posse. What a bunch of idiots ... had to be high as a kite on drugs during that whole era. Still laughing at'em all.

He was there third string guy behind Tannehill and Moore. Did they pick up anyone else? I assume they will want 3 QBs. The other guy on their roster is a Seth Lobato? Rookie UDFA from Northern Colorado.

What was the point?

They'll go with two QBs. Just needed another camp arm. Glad they chose him over Grossman who is set to become a Browns legend.

Sorry for your loss Quinn Fags.

Damn, you yet live. Still lurking? OK, DA has made far more money in 10 years than I ever have in a lifetime. Nice 1\2 season with the Browns- and I know you have to be thrilled about his 100% completion % in the last 3 years 4\4 but I digress. And I was never on the Quinn train- I was just willing to give him a chance. (unlike someone we know who was creaming himself over Brady's "tight spirals" and command of the game. )

Career backup- with one brief flash of glory- is anyone's dream job. A million a year for working out, holding a clipboard, and getting to see the Cheerleaders up close? Sign me up. 🙂

He was awful. And now six other teams have confirmed that.

Anderson was mistake prone and maddingly inconsistent. But at least we had a punchers chance on Sundays. Quinn was stillborn into the NFL. He had nothing. Couldnt throw deep. Couldnt win. And Savage traded a first and second for him.

So, now what are DA, McCoy, Weeden, Frye, Holcomb, Pederson, Campbell, Wallace, McCown,Dorsey, Detmer, Garcia, Wynn, Gradkowski, Thad Lewis, Delhomme doing.

I know that Dilfer is with ESPN, and Couch is with the SEC network, I think.

Second... I never thought of history as being fun until I read a couple posts in this thread.

I considered him a good friend. Someone got a hold of him and convinced him to go over there, which was fine, but then he stopped calling any of us,like he fell off the face of the earth. Didn't expect that.

Shep is still considered a friend too. He comes back from time to time, probably when he is on the outs over there. He is always welcome back, but I am going to always remind him of his obsessions with Quinn, Leinart, Harrington et al, because he was borderline condescending in his opinions, which he posted 100 times a day. He was actually similar to Lumbergh, except he really is a Browns fan, and that he seamlessly moves on from QB to QB. I knew he would be obsessed with Johnny without having to look over at Barking with Wood.
