With the exception of the Thanksgiving games, Thursday night games are always going to be on NFLN.

I actually liked him as the Notre Dame Quarterback. I really hope his attitude hasn't changed. It probably has with the money he's making.

The Browns could score 60 points and lose 61-60. Brady tho' is ready!!

Nope - that's my Bengals 1-8 BA-BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

He did good. But in the end he suffered the same thing Anderson suffered from. Dropped passes from his receivers.

FairleighCalm · 11-08-2008, 03:00 PM

Bring on Bill Cowher!

brimontz · 11-10-2008, 07:58 AM

The problem wasn't Quinn, it was the defense. You don't give up almost 500 yards of passing in a game and expect to win.

The Browns have two perfectly good QBs. IF THEY DON'T TRADE OR BENCH BRAYLON EDWARDS I'LL PERM'Y FIND ANOTHER TEAM TO FOLLOW. EDWARDS IS SUCH A HEAD CASE HE GETS MORE ATTENTION BY DROPPING PERFECTLY THROWN BALLS VS CATCHING THEM, SO HE DROPS THEM. I'M SERIOUS, HE'S AN OVERPAID SABOTEUR.

brimontz · 11-25-2008, 03:38 PM

Braylon was noted for dropping passes coming out of Michigan, so this isn't new. He just needs to get serious about practicing and fundamentals. He still has the potential, but he needs help. Donte Stallworth has continued to be injury prone and was a poor choice as the number 2 receiver, and not having Jurevicius around this year has hurt as well.

The problem isn't the QB, although Anderson can be hot and cold. Anderson has the better arm, but Quinn seems to have a little more poise in the short time I've watched him.

Crennel has not done a good job this year. Poor clock management, poor fundamentals displayed by all of the players, getting the team up for big games (ex. Giants on MNF but not Houston this past Sunday), etc.

Savage has not done a good job this year. Failure to address the problems at linebacker and the secondary. Good job in getting Shaun Rogers, however.

Very disappointing season. Not sure if major changes are needed, but there needs to be a little bit of a shake up. One playoff game in 10 years since the "new Browns" were formed is not acceptable.

FairleighCalm · 11-25-2008, 03:45 PM

I wonder if the rumored offers for Cowher are true?

brimontz · 11-26-2008, 02:13 PM

I wouldn't doubt it.

Well, Quinn's done for the year, so the never-ending injury bug continues to plague the Browns and their high-profile draft picks and free agent signees. Pathetic.

There is a curse on the head of Cleveland sports...

Brian

stylicho · 11-26-2008, 04:50 PM

I wonder how Anderson is going to react. How willing is he going to be to play for the crowd that booed him? They are still the only team to beat the Giants.

brimontz · 11-29-2008, 04:03 AM

Well, Anderson has the rest of the season to win over the crowd. He wins, the crowd will cheer.

I think Cincinnati has the curse thing beat. 1-9-1 (maybe it's 10 now), Carson Palmer hasn't played in that last six weeks due to an "elbow injury," to which they STILL can't decide if there is going to be surgery. We have only had one winning season since the last Super Bowl, 20 years ago. Mike Brown doesn't seem to get any hints that we need someone to help him run the team. We also have a ton of players who can't seem to stay out of trouble. What ruined the season for some was Mike Brown pulling ownership rank on Marvin Lewis and reinstating Chris Henry, a guy who was caught wielding a gun in Florida in his uniform shirt! He was through that mess and given a final warning, to which he nearly got into a fight with a University of Cincinnati student - it got him kicked off the team, only to be reinstated at training camp after he was exonerated. It's the same family that founded your team!

Then, there's the Reds.....

brimontz · 11-29-2008, 08:50 PM

No way -- I can remember the Reds winning the World Series in the early 90s or so and the Bengals at least making it to the Super Bowl.

Cincy has nothing on Cleveland -- 44 years and counting since the last major sports championship.

Indians -- last won it all in 1948
Browns -- last won it all in 1964
Cavs -- only one NBA Finals appearance (and every time they play, it's announcer after announcer talking about when LeBron WILL leave Cleveland in 2010).
