Corrections

1: Please stop the Daboll-bashing. When Bernie Kosar studies the game-films and says "guys were getting open, but the quarterbacks weren't getting it there", and that the game-plans looked fine to him, the objective person listens.
You get in such a froth to blame somebody, you become an old-fashioned lynch-mob. You hang whoever comes in handy.
...and the fact that you're still arguing with Bernie and me proves it. Shut up.

2: Delhomme can't be worse than DA/Quinn. The end.

3: Please don't chant for McCoy the instant Delhomme hits a rough spot. McCoy slid because he needs work. While I'm sick to death of hearing about arm-strength, and it's drasticly over-valued, in McCoy's case it could actually really be an issue.
I saw his highlight tapes. You can't see much bad stuff from these carefully compiled fluff-pieces, but they ARE meant to show all the player's best traits. I never saw McCoy rifle one into a tight spot. I saw a few deep ones, but nothing special.
This is why scouts almost unanimously agreed that he'd be good as a west coast quarterback.

I listen to Jim Miller, especially, when I want to learn about quarterbacks. I found out from him that you can improve your arm-strength, and that McCoy needs to do that. (How do you do it? You throw the ball a lot. A LOT.)

McCoy has the brains and the accuracy. Big deal he's a little under 6'2" and 220--I wish you'd quit harping on 4-5 lbs. and a half an inch. He can run around almost like a scat-back; in fact I was stunned by some of what he did with his legs.

Conversely, those of you who have decided he should sit for more than one season are also assuming way too much. McCoy's only REAL issue is his arm. Mentally, he's not a project at all. He'll enter the '11 season competing to start. If he doesn't win the competition, so be it. But I wouldn't bet against it.

3: Mangini never wanted a workhorse. Whenever he can, he divides the load between two or more backs. This offense has extra fullbacks, running backs, and tight ends, and is short on wide recievers. Do the freaking math and smell the two-back formation.

4: Quit saying "for a reason". Denver let Hillis go "for a reason". yeah--they have plenty of running backs and they wanted Brady Quinn! Ben Watson was released "for a reason". Actually there were several reasons: One is Wes Welker. Another is money. To hear some of you guys, no good players are ever released!!!
Ryan Tucker was released! They got Heiden for a sixth-round pick! Trusnik was a toss-in-Benard and Cribbs weren't drafted---FOR A REASON.

5: When Bernie Kosar came out of college, one of his strongest points was his superior DEEEEP accuracy and his STRONG arm. This continued until said arm was injured on a hit in Kansas City. AFTER that, it was anybody's guess where the ball would go when he threw it past twenty yards.
And by the way, while all of you were in denial about it, this is why he DID have diminished skills.

6: Reality is not what you want. It's what is.

Gramps Engram: Great Move!

The Browns needed an experienced wide reciever to show the young guys the ropes. I mean, it's very complicated:

First, you have to understand what the Quarterback is saying in the huddle. If you don't, you won't know what to do or when the ball will be snapped or anything! Then, you need to look at the defense pre-snap, and diagnose what they're going to do to cover you. You might need to adjust your route. Then, after it's snapped, you have to adjust to what they actually DO do with you!

Without an experienced veteran, how could these young guys ever possibly learn all that abstractionalized complexity?

And Engram is only 37. Many wide recievers have played into their...well he's really got a lot of experience! Maybe more than the coaches!

I just hope they paid him enough, with guaranteed money for a good three years, since as we know it takes so long for young recievers to learn how to play.

Now that Engram will be on board, maybe they won't be forced to use Moore as a reciever. maybe they can afford to cut him now. And that new guy--Practice Squad for sure! Wouldn't want to have to activate him any time this season--bive him a good three years to learn all the complexitationalized abstractionalizations on the bench. Might wreck his confidence by forcing him to experience any real action too soon!

Oh yeah--great move! I'm so glad the new regime is upholding all those time-honored traditions.........

WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!! 2

It's the same stuff every year from Browns' minicamp: 'So-and-so looks so improved' and 'Whats-his-name looks to be a steal.' We heard the same stuff about Derek Anderson in 2008 and 2009 only to see him flop when they started playing games that mattered. Until proven otherwise in the regular season, Delhomme is still a 35-year-old quarterback on the downside of his career who chucked 18 interceptions last year and Robiskie and Veikune are 2nd round busts." - mkeogh

That's right: Mike Hol-who? How could Delhomme be better than Quinn and Anderson?

It's the same old garbage we hear every seaon, except for Mike Holmgren and some people he brought in this time!

And here we go: HE wasn't smart enough to even fire Mangini!

...I rest my case.

SHUT UP! NATIONAL PEOPLE READ THIS CRAP AND THINK WERE'RE ALL IDIOTS!!!

SHUT UP!
