    Is Clevleland getting the rep of the end of line for QB careers? Qbs careers fade in this town? Why?

    It's the "curse".

    Yinz are a career killer for coaches also up there in dirty, dirty Cleveland.

    Why? Because most years, the oline couldn't protect the qb, and couldn't give the qb a

    solid running game.

    Or a top 5 defense to bail him out of a close game

    Yes because a good defense would have turned Tim Couch into Joe Montana.

    A running game would have made Derek Anderson into John Elway.

    A better O-line would make Brady Quinn into Steve Young.

    Maybe your QB's have sucked, because your QB's aren't very good.

    IMHO, Tim Couch could almost SUE the Browns for ruining his career. That kid never had a chance, yet I believe he was the single most productive QB we've had since the Browns came back.

    You gotta ask why? How about a decade with the worst OL in football. changing coaches every 2 minutes, how about stripping down and rebuilding every 5 minutes.. Seriously.. When is the last time we had a coach here longer than 3 years??? MARTY... thats 20 plus years ago... and your asking WHY?

    They haven't been the most talented in the league.....can't argue that. So let's say the Browns had drafted Big Ben....would they have 2 superbowls?
