Interesting QB Situation

EVERY PRACTICE eh?Tony Grossi gave a running tally of picks every day.
Every day BQ had 1-2 minimum.
Most days DA hand none.
Go dig it up. Read it. Then come back and tell us you're wrong.

Aw, poor you. Little old you was offended since the word knowledgeable was used. Point being, this board was buzzing all last offseason with DA/Quinn arguments and a ton of us wanted to move DA when we could.
Itโs beyond old news it was ad nauseum, so when a guy like you comes in here and makes little snippy comments youโre going to get it fed back โnewbโ.
Now go take your panties off and bend over.
Riffer...you're a d0uche. It's posters like you that made me decide to stop just reading this board and start posting

I like to consider myself more of a douche than a d0uche.
Glad to have you posting, let's see some more brilliant remarks. This whole DA thing is stagnant anymore since Lums is trolling so hard. We need guys like you to tell us some more about what we already know.
Thanks for supporting the Browns Board, we were tired of you just reading.

Maybe i will start pimping Ratliff and turn this in to a 3 way scrum.

Sounds good. Was it after the Bengals game or when that everyone, including all of your knowledgible fans, decided DA was garbage?Anderson racked up about 50% of his TD passes against three teams that hadn't won a single game that year at the time that we played them (Miami, St.Louis, Bengals). Miami wound up winning 1 game that year, the Bengals 3 or 4, and St. Louis 3 I think. We had the weakest schedule ever and still missed the Playoffs...
It says alot about your starting QB when the playoffs are gift-wrapped for you with an easy Bengals team and you throw 4 picks and lose the game and miss the playoffs. You're just not a winner. Why waste time on a guy who can't take an easy game like that and manage it, let alone win it for us? That was the nail in the coffin in my already-doubting mind, yes.
2009-10 Browns Prediction: 8-8 -

LMFAO....DA didn't out perform BQ in camp last yearhe didn't? Let's take a look back, shall we masterbater?
Maybe you missed BQ tossing pick-6's to Shaun Rogers every practice while DA was lighting it up.
Maybe you missed mega-BQ-humpers shep and Tony Grossi jumping off of BQs nuts like he had herpes.
Maybe you missed BQ shitting his pants with stage fright vs the mighty Lions.
LMFAO indeed. end of discussion dumbshit.

11/29 = 37.9%
37.9% = 50% = BQ Nation Math
In a related topic, 2 out of 2, or ONE HUNDRED PERCENT of BQ's TD passes came against what Colin Cowherd called yesterday THE WORST DEFENSE IN THE NFL. With 5 linebackers and a corner out with injuries.

My opinion up front---I've seen DA and now I want to see BQ---end of discussion...
With that said however, if you're blaming the Cincy loss TOTALLY at DA's feet then you're wrong man....
In another thread I explained how I met Carson Palmer after that season and he stated that those were the worst wind conditions he ever experienced... At times, when the ball came out of his hand he had no idea where it was going... He said he missed some spots as much as 10 yards...
Chud had a horrible, stupid game plan, never adjusted for conditions and put his players in the position to lose...
As much as any game that kept us out of the playoffs, it has to be the Raider game that was given away.....

My bad, I refered to the meeting of palmer earlier in this thread---sorry

If DA gets traded, you know all the DA fans are going to become Ratliff's biggest supporters. So I'll give them their first piece of semi-ridiculous evidence:
As it turns out, Ratliff and Quinn faced Georgia Tech in back to back games: Ratliff in the '05 Fiesta Bowl, Quinn in the opening game of the '06 season. Here are the two guys' stats.
Brett Ratliff
- 30/41, 381 yards, 4 TD, 1 INT
- 23/38, 246 yards, 0 TD, 0 INT

And Quinn racked up his only 50% completion NFL performance against the worst pass defense in the league, still lost.
If you want to cherry pick DA, the same can be done for BQ.

And Quinn had questions about his accuracy under pressure coming out of college, his pro day at Notre Dame impressed scouts and coaches so much his draft stock plummeted. If Quinn gets to play, somewhere, you just might see more of the same.

Yes, he plummeted all the way to the......1st round!?!Uh huh,yeah we definitely shouldn't give a 1st round pick a chance.....brilliant!!
I'm all for giving him a chance to win the spot in an open competition. Totally for that. Some of you guys are so fearful that he can't win it you want the job handed to him.

He also called DA one of the worst starting QBs before the start of last season. I like your choice of sources.

Um, the worst pass D Quinn faced was DEN. It wasn't a 50% completion %, it was 65.7%. To put that in perspective for you, that is a career high for DA.

Ha ha, this is perhaps the funniest of the Manwagon lines.
D&S, do me a favor, comb the board (Spaceballs flash; giant pick in the desert... haha...sorry...) and find me JUST ONE POST that states that Quinn should be "handed" the job.
You can't, because it's not here.
What "some" have actually said -- myself included -- is that it's a waste of time to hold a QB competition, and possibly detrimental to the team's preparation, unless the coach REALLY doesn''t have a clue who he wants to start.
And if he REALLY doesn't know who he wants to start then you have much bigger problems than the QB. Remember how RAC did this very thing?
So, it's not about fear of Quinn failing, it's about fear that Mangini doesn't ACTUALLY know who his QB is.
Does Mangini strike you as the flip-a-coin type?
Yeah, me neither. Which is bad news for your boy.

Brady Quinn's only game where he reached at least a 50% completion rate. His second best game was 44.4%, his other games were below 40%
Also for the sake of accuracy... In regular season DA has had games of 71.9% against Baltimore, 72% against Miami, 72% against Seattle, 68.6% against Houston, as well as numerous other 60%+ games. His sub 50% games do not make up half or the majority of his games. If you want to compare early DA against BQ, DA only had one sub 50% game in his first 4 appearances with the Baltimore game mentioned earlier being among those early games.
To the other guys. I actually hope Mangini makes his decision by mid summer and gets on with whatever his plans are. If he chooses DA there will be a LOT of whining on this board that BQ didn't get a chance. If they dump DA and pick BQ, hopefully both guys will get a full preseason in with their respective teams... last year BQ pretty much got that, between the stupid Frye competition in '07 and the concussion in '08, DA's never got that.

Maybe then the argument would start with something like, you must be kidding comparing apples and oranges. You're talking two different seasons. But, since Quinn can't win big games, Ratliff must be the beter QB. Hell, look at Harrell's stats, he should be starting ahead of everybody.

Ah, but not what I responded to. It was stated that when he played the worst D, he couldn't complete 50%. What happened in the other two starts, well he broke his finger early in that second start.
Sub 50% do make up the majority of DA's starts. You don't have a career 50 some odd % average by being over that number regularly.

For the sake of even more accuracy, Quinn only played one game without an injury, oh! Just happened to be that 65.7% completion rate game.
