Cleveland Browns QB Failures

1. Charlie Frye
2. Kelly Holcomb
3. Tim Couch
4. Derek Anderson
5. Brady Quinn
6. They will draft another one this year

Since Kelly we've failed with Todd Collins,Rob Johnson, Losman, Holcomb, Edwards. We at least had mild success with Flutie and Bledsoe. Law of averages say you're bound to eventually pick the right QB.

Sma Bradford seems logical for their trend.

Re: Cleveland Browns QB Failures

How can Brady Quinn be called a failure? The guy has only been in the league for one and a half seasons. Newbies need time to develop, hopefully under the tutalage of a seasoned Vet, before they should be thrown into the fire. Quinn was tossed to the wolves early in his career and hasn't had time to develop his skills.

Now if he's acting the same way in another season or two, then you can call him a failure.

I did like what Gruden said about him in the late stages of the game. Quinn was finally throwing the ball downfield and trying to hit long targets when Gruden said, "I like to see him finally go deep, but it would be nice if he kept it in the field of play."

The Browns will screw up again and pick Locker.

Re: Cleveland Browns QB Failures

quinn is kind of in this edwards mode. He seems to sulk at the difficulty of the job at hand. and that doesn't help the situation any. He throws the short stuff on monday night expecting to score points and seemed to get frustrated by the lack of movement. Then when he was desperate, he looked even worse. That sounds like Trent's titans game.

Quinn isn't going to make it anywhere.

What? No mention of Ty Detmer or Spurgeon Wynn?

Where's Jeff Garcia?

They should have signed Brian Brohm off of the Pack's practice squad, then all of their past miscues would be forgotten.

Its an age old argument.

Is it all the QB or is it the surrounding team?

For example, there may be QB's that look as good as they do because of the team they are on, and vice versa.

My opinion is that it plays a part, but our QB's arent very good either.

On this team, its both... QB's that aren't good, a team that's not very good, FO, HC....

If Brady Quinn played for the Saints or NE, I could still see them going to the playoffs.

But its hypothetical and cant be proven.

Looking at those lists does anyone really wonder why the Browns/Bills have sucked the past 10 years?

Let's not forget that the Browns also had the great Belicheck as head coach at one point. Just more proof that talented players is more important than who's the coach.
