DA - Selective Memory
-
First Bold - down 7-3 or down 20-0, it never makes those throws okay. So why try and paint them as ok.
Second Bold - How in gods green earth can you call 2 QTRs of play with 3 INT pretty good overall?
---------------------------------------------------
Again, why crucify a guy for making an optimistic stand while making comments ? It does not change the game results right ?

DA was asked about his INT's last week...
Anderson came in last week with the Browns already trailing 20-0. He forced a few balls trying to get Cleveland’s offense moving and threw three interceptions. Anderson, who has been wildly inconsistent in the past, was asked if he felt he had nothing to lose.
“We were down 30,” he said with a laugh. “Yeah, I threw some balls in places I had no business throwing. If it’s a 7-3 game I’m not doing it. I was just trying to bring some energy and try to be positive with everybody. We talked about it and I made some bad decisions. I thought overall it was pretty good.”
30-0? Really DA? Try 20-0 when you tossed your first one...which led to a TD...
His second INT led to ANOTHER TD, to make it 34-3...
Which he then promptly followed up with his 3rd INT.
The fact is, DA came in with a deep hole at 20-0....but that is still a 3 score game. Instead, his first 2 INT's turned it into a major blowout.
But his memory is coming in at 30-0???? To me, that is excuses for his performance instead of owning up to bad decisions.
The fact is, DA came in with a deep hole at 20-0....but that is still a 3 score game. Instead, his first 2 INT's turned it into a major blowout.
It was already a major blowout.
That's why the golden boy got yanked for the 2nd time in his last 4 starts.

do a search for 20-0 comebacks in the NFL...you will find there are a surprising number of them including several in the playoffs (ie good teams)....and if you are trying to say that DA is good...he should be able to at least make an effort instead of playing catch with the Ravens.

You know John, you can talk about the picks all you want as the reason why we did not come back from a 20-0 score. I'll even allow you to blame DA for this loss, he should be good enough to over-come an aging Raven Defense. Although, let's just add in a footnote that our own Defense gave up a 34-yrd run by MaCahee in the 3rd qtr., then in he fourth our secondary gave up a Flacco-to-Mason 72-yarder, a Flacco-to-Washington 34-yarder, and another 20-yard measure to Clayton.
DA didn't get the job done, with his deepest completion (besides to the opposition) was only a 22yrder to Furrey, 18 to Edwards, 13 to Massaquoi, an 11-yrder to Edwards an 11-yrder to Harrison
In the first half, Harrison had an impressive 17yrd run.
Oh .... and Quinn contributed a 12yrd connection with Harrison in the first half as well.
DA, clearly didn't do enough to get it done though, and that is the bottomline.

Does this mean that I won't be receiving a 'THANKS' vote for blaming the failed comeback attempt on Derek Anderson?

Enough of this garbage already,Stan you started this and have run it into the ground.
I went round and round with Zombo yesterday about DA being put back on the field.
Major step backwards for the team,Quinn had a shot, not much of one but had a shot move forward not backward.
DA is a joke and brings nothing to the dance however on this board its become fun to Stan and Zombo to bust balls and side with Lums because controversy is good for the board,douchy but effective these feuds have gone on since camp.
Nobody can even focus on any other aspect of the team because Stan is fanning the flames and laughing his ass off while the feud goes on and on and on,thumbs up for the ball busting
Real thumbs down for the angst and trouble this is causing,but your dog threads make up for it.
Stan and Z really need to put down the magnifying glasses and get away from the ant hill and throw lums down the well while your at it,its tired and it gets ugly to fast.
I was always around this off-season huh?
Maybe I stumbled back to the board to find that frizzy haired girl that sat in front of me in Spanish class my Junior year ... maybe she, once again, was too easy to tease and jar a reaction out of.
My bad .... carry on

Quinn had a shot, not much of one but had a shot move forward not backward.With all due respect, I haven't seen anything--not one single play--that supports this statement.
I want a competitive team as much as the next fan. I want to see a QB have SOME sort of success here. And I understand we've all seen Anderson and can debate his successes and failures ad nauseum.
BUT...there is absolutely NOTHING to debate about Quinn's performance thus far this year. There is absolutely nothing--not even a single glimpse-- suggesting he can move ANYTHING forward. Figuratively and literally. Quinn has been absolutely impotent on that field this year.
I wish I could point to at least a handful of plays that Quinn has made this year that provide hope. I honestly can't.
Hate on DA all you want. He IS dangerous with the ball; you just don't know WHO'S gonna grab it. But based on the alternative (at least over the 10 quarters) I don't see how anyone can objectively NOT understand the decision to put DA out there this weekend...warts and all. To say the alternative has been abysmal is an understatement. Granted, this TEAM is awful...but this has honestly been some of the worst QBing I have ever seen. And I, too, don't understand the regression to what appears to be high school status.
And I also understand what this decision seems to indicate for our team this year as fans: very little hope for progressing. And I share the frustration. I just don't think we have any good options right now.

I'd argue it is right on par w/ the QBing through the first 3 games last season.

IMO DA probably (most definitely) knew the score. the "30-0" comment wasn't literal, he was just making a point about coming back from a 20 point deficit against the Ravens defense.
and a whole thread about it. c'mon guys. put your microscopes and dissecting tools away for a couple minutes.
i recommend getting a 2nd hobby going while the Browns suck continues to haunt your dreams. it's good for the soul.

The same can be said of Anderson. What has Anderson shown this year that he can move the team forward? If you're going to discount past performances from Quinn, then you should be ignoring DAs past performance as well.
Do you think 3 INTs in 2 quarters of play is 'showing something'?

Right now, I think everyone is just settling for moving the chains.
Quinn was o'fer on third down attempts Sunday, tossing an Interception of his own on his first 3rd down attempt, just as DA did. But taking a sack on the next, throwing a pass 10?15?20? yards out-of-bounds to Cribbs on the next 3rd down attempt before throwing a pass short of the line of scrimmage on 3rd-and-7 that came up short after Furrey covered at least 8 yards on the run after the catch (two just to get to the LOS), was pretty pathetic.
Anderson at least converted three consecutive 3rd down attempts a 3rd-n-16 (22yrds), a 3rd-n-5 (8yrds), and a 3rd-n-4 (11yrds), before being stopped on 3rd-n-Goal.
That's why he got the nod this week ... it didn't take much, just as it didn't take Quinn much to win the job by default initially.

This year the team simply can't move the ball at all.

I don't know a single player at any level that should be on the field that doesn't know EXACTLY what the score was when they either entered or left the game....so that means DA was either trying to DEFLECT...or is just plain NOT PAYING ATTENTION

You can try to paint it how you want, and obviously there are some varying factors. But none of those make the play last year or this year at the QB position any better. Bad is bad, no matter how you slice it.
Oh, and there have been dropped passes this year too. So let's leave that excuse alone unless you want to go both ways with it (and I know you don't).

You got me there ... when coming into the game, you should always know whether Brady Quinn has you down 20-0 or 30-0.
I'd start Brady Quinn this weekend, this 10-point fudging is grounds for him to receive a default start again.
