What The Browns Have Now Is A Real Q.B. Controversy & A Moron For A Head Coach

Found September 11, 2012 on Cleveland Sports 360: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Brandon Weeden,  Colt McCoy,  Pat Shurmur,  Josh Cribbs,  Mike Holmgren,  Tom Heckert
TEAMS: Cleveland Browns
The Cleveland Browns the team that has the best fans in the world are now faced with a good old fashion quarterback controversy and the head coach has no idea how to handle it. The fans that attended the Browns home opener were already booing the Browns 28-year-old rookie Brandon Weeden and they wanted to see Colt McCoy and get the Browns an opening day win, something that hasn’t been done in the past 7 years. Can you blame the fans for being a little irate? Why not, the Browns were close, they were in a game that many picked for them to be out of by halftime. The Cleveland Browns defense all but gift wrapped the game for head coach Pat Shurmur, by now the people who know football in the town have already pegged Shurmur as a moron that has no business coaching football in the NFL and Shumur himself placed the exclamation point on his moron-ness by not going for the 2 point conversion when the Browns defense scored their only touchdown. Amazingly the Browns would end up losing the ...

Weeden: We’re Going to Turn it Around

Via Waiting For Next Year  |  September 10, 2012
As an athlete, even though you wish you’re going to be all up, there are going to be some downs. Fortunately for me, I’ve had games where I haven’t played as well but I felt like I had given my team a chance to win. And today, there were times where I didn’t really do that; that’s the part that gets me the most. I really take a lot of pride in giving whatever it is I...

Terrible Tuesdays: More from Shurmur and Weeden on Fun Browns Loss to Eagles

Via Cleveland Frowns  |  September 11, 2012
Terrible Tuesdays: Because the careening dumpster fire that is the Holmgren/Shurmur regime and the 2012 Cleveland Browns is too much to clean up after in just one day. So first from The Anointed One, Brandon Weeden, after turning in a performance as bad as only 0.05% of the quarterbacks in NFL history have ever managed, when asked if his NFL debut “felt different” from his college...

Brandon Weeden Gets Caught Under American Flag Before the Game

Via Jb Smooth's Spot  |  September 11, 2012
Perhaps this was a sign we should’ve taken heed to before the ball was even kicked off. Brandon Weeden got caught under flag during the pregame ceremonies. Now this is the starting quaterback of an NFL team, he should be able to out run 80% of the population, but the fact that he couldn’t out run the flag holders might be a slight cause of concern. While this is quite funny...

MSF Quick Chat: The Greatness of Brandon Weeden

Via Midwest Sports Fans  |  September 12, 2012
Throughout the day I will have short chat conversations with other MSF writers about various topics. Some of these conversations make me laugh. I’ve decided it’s time to start posting them. The following conversation took place moments ago between me and MSF fantasy author (and creepy library stalker) Nicholas Gerlach. The topic? Cleveland Browns rookie QB Brandon Weeden, whose...

Rick and Craig are back at it again and no we still don’t have an opener. Sorry, I was too busy bringing a new child into the world. Excuse me. Get off my back, ok? Anyway, Rick and I talked about the Browns and Buckeyes mostly. As soon as I get TD or Jon on we’ll get some Tribe in the action. Scott will make an appearance soon too, I’m thinking.

Browns Fans: Did That Really Happen?

Via Cleveland Browns Report  |  September 11, 2012
So it's Saturday afternoon and I happen to see a commercial for the Cleveland Browns. So as I'm getting excited for the season opener I proceed to hit up Stub Hub and snag some tickets to the game. It was the 3rd year in a row I've been to the home opener for the Browns. It's becoming a tradition for my brother and me. Thinking on the way there that there is no way...

First and 10: Weeden's disastrous debut

Via Fox Sports Ohio  |  September 11, 2012
1) Heres the problem with Brandon Weedens opening game: If it happens again it brings into question whether Weeden has it. Its one thing to struggle as a rookie -- Andrew Luck threw three interceptions after all. Its quite another to set the standard Weeden set, which was historically bad. At least as far as football since 1960 goes. If that happens again, its a problem. It if happens...

Keys to the game week 2: Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Via Death, Taxes, and Rebuilding  |  September 13, 2012
Follow @ClevelandDTR By: Eric Grinnell 1. Contain A.J. Green The key to stopping the Bengals offense is to stop A.J. Green. Green is already one of the better receivers in the game, and constitutes a majority of the Bengals passing game (last year, Green accounted for 7 of Andy Dalton’s 20 passing TDs). If you stop Green, you should be able to stop Dalton and make the...
