    the 70% is still achievable if BQ starts vs balt. you have to keep in mind, that with so little offensive production we have had with DA, that the amount of snaps on offense have been low. If BQ actually can move the offense, he'll get alot more snaps per game than DA, hence being able to reach 70% if he plays vs balt at the very least.

    due to this, if the issue is the money, don't expect BQ to start vs balt. maybe come in half way through, but i don't think he'll be starting. i hope i'm proven wrong tho.

    True, I did not think of the fact that our offensive production would go up with him at the helm. Well, let him come in at half-time, it would be like a reversal of fortune for DA. I think I might be going to this game, I honestly hope it will be better than the last one.

    What makes you think our offense production will go up with BQ at the helm? I seem to remember a lot of 3 and outs with BQ steering the ship. He was 6-8 for 34yds last time he played Baltimore.

    ....and that's WAY BETTER than DA! 😆

  • The last time we playedthe Ravens it was a tale of two halfs

    BQ 6 for 8 34yfs 75.0 % completion 1 sack 1 Int

    DA 11 for 19 92 yds 57.9% completion 1 scak 3 Int's

    We also ran the ball 23 times for 71 yards

    Total number of offensive plays

    Balt. 66

    Clev. 52

    All of us know that the Ravens have DA's number and are wanting to seee him out there on the field, we can also go back to last season and pull DA's stats from the 08 season.

    Has Ratlifff ever played against the Ravens?

  • Again, I just don't understand why this is so hard. I see three different scenarios here.

    1. Quinn goes in and plays fantastic moves the ball and wins games he gets his bonus, and we don't have to worry about the QB position in the draft. - Chances of this happening are slim to none.

    2. Quinn goes in and plays average. Offense keeps doing what it is doing and he doesn't get his pay. We get an honest look at BQ and can then decide if we need to draft a QB or decide Quinn is serviceable and we don't have to.

    3. Quinn goes in, craps his pants worse than DA. Enter Ratliff.

    I just hope they can pull something out of this abysmal season and get some looks at players and see where we need to make moves and where we have guys that are usable.

    LOL, T. I believe Chicopee High School has DA's 'number'.

    you only say that cuz you're from Chicopee. I know your games.

    let's be honest. It doesn't matter who the he*l we start at QB against the Ravens.

    it really doesn't.

    I disagree, some QB's complete an offense, they can make a bad team look good.

    and you think we have that qb that can complete an offense, and make us look good? against the Ravens?

    do tell.

    Not at the present but DA does not give us the best chance at winning. Go look at his history vs. the Ravens.

    fair enough. but i'm still saying for monday, it doesn't matter.

    but they will prolly INT DA several times (assuming he doesn't fumble and actually throws it that far)...and we'll never know what some one else could have done. (maybe in the 2nd half, but that's different)

    agree to disagree.

    I think he beat the Ravens twice in 07 when we had a team.

    But I'm not against getting Quinn in there over the bye week and seeing if can get anything going with the young guys.

    I was all for continuity with Anderson, but it just keeps getting worse instead of better.

    Honestly I don't think either QB has much chance of getting this offense going and making a claim for next year.

    What I am interested in the rest of the season is seeing if the defense can improve, keep the games close and give us hope for next year. I know we aren't going to score a lot of points, but if we can get the scores in the 16-13, 13-10 range then I'll feel we are headed in the right direction defensively. And with KC, Oak & Det on the schedule , we should we a few of those games which hopefully will give the whole team some confidence, not just the defense.

    Sept. 30 2007 vs. Baltimore: The Browns jumped out to a 24-6 halftime lead over the Ravens thanks in part to a 78-yard touchdown pass from Anderson to Braylon Edwards. The 27-13 win gave the Browns their second home division victory in three weeks: 2.21 percent

    Nov. 18 2007 at Baltimore: A wild game all came down to a 51-yard Dawson field goal attempt as time expired that ricocheted off the left goal post and hit off the support bar of the uprights. The kick was ruled successful after originally being called no good. The Browns won the game, 33-30, on a 33-yard Dawson field goal in overtime:

    What has happened to DA? After such a great start, it makes you wonder what the hell is going on in his head.

  • That whole season is biwildering.......WTF happened. I had so much hope going into 2008.......stupid me actually thought we'd win the division, forsure make the playoffs.

  • As to the issue of Quinn and the snaps/money.

    BQ has shown me enough to tell me I don't want to hand over the 11 mil. I wouldn't start him until it required unbelievable effort and production to get the cash.

    I don't start him against Balt.....then go with him the rest of the year.

    More or less make it impossible to get the bonus for lousy play.

    Then, if he comes in, finally gets it and plays well and comes up a little short on the snap requirements...I waive the requirements and give him the bonus...if not, we have a 5 mil a year qb for another couple of years.

    Yeah i agree.. lets just let anderception keep doing us a great job of losing...one regime already died by DAs arm and i dont want to win another game this year in hopes of a high pick and mangini/daboll getting fired because unlike da..bq will likely get hot after 3 or 4 games of experience even in that horriffic offensive scheme...mangini is the wrong guy he is in over his not so smart head...once a ballboy always a ballboy mangini shoulde enjoy fetching coffee for the new GM as much as he liked fetching it for belichick...😉
