gftChris Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/browns/2013/10/10/cleveland-browns-brandon-weeden-second-chance/2957331/ "I've never really been in a situation where I've been doubted like this – and it lights a fire, motivates me to get into this building before anybody, study at night more than anybody because I want to prove everybody wrong,'' Weeden told USA TODAY Sports on Wednesday. "I want to prove to everybody that I can be the guy to lead this franchise to the places we want to go. "If I'm worried about making mistakes, I'm making it harder on myself. So I just want to go out, have fun, just let it rip, and try to make the plays to help this team win. I have confidence in my ability and in everybody on this football team. So when I do it, hopefully, everybody will come back and say, 'I can't believe we doubted him.''' Well, here's hoping that translates to a W at the weekend - if ever there was a game where a quick release was needed, it's against the lions front 4, with their weak secondary. Hoyer would have had a very real chance to win this game. Expect to see lots of quick read screens and slants. Almost like last year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TypicalBrowns Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Weeds has shown that he can play in the league. Coming in cold Thursday and winning was huge. I think it may have helped his ego, confidence is crucial to a quarterbacks development. And its not far out saying this team is a contender with even average qb play, weeden has been a 6/10 qb, we NEED him to make the step to a 7/10 at least. That slight difference in qb play is huge for this team (ala Hoyer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, all we need is a repeat of his performance in the preseason game against the Lions #1 Defense. He torched them. Sure, no guarantee that it will happen again...but it could give him confidence in his ability to handle this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't blame Weeden personally, that's like me blaming you for sucking at life. You can work with what your momma gave you. Blame the FO for the product on the field and their inability to acquire better talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kosar_For_President Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 I like that he said he is too concerned to make mistakes. I think that was his issue on holding onto the ball too long, maybe? Hoping.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Nothing like believing in yourself... "...and try to make the plays to help this team win." Confident QB's don't try... they do.

Until proven otherwise Weeds has the shitty stats to back up your claim. The Lions game will be telling- and it's pivotal to the season. 4-2 and we talk about being a contender- 3-3 and it's back to qb draft talk.

Surely one win or loss shouldn't be indicative on the rest of our season. We need to breed a mentality of winning, nay? One player does not make a team, correct? And you guys call me crazy for wanting to build for the future. If this week marks the difference between playoffs or top 5 draft pick, we were never a first place team to begin with.

If this week marks the difference between playoffs or top 5 draft pick, we were never a first place team to begin with. That's not me, but I've been moderating this board for a long time- and I can guarantee you that's the way talk will swing. I was hoping for 8-8 before the season- and I'm still hanging my hat on that. If Weeden steps up, who knows what could happen. BTW, my $100 with Ghoolie on the Browns winning more than 5 (I took the over) is looking pretty good now isn't it? LOL I've NEVER lost an internet bet- I cleaned up in '96 betting every Ravens troll in sight Tampa Bay would win more games than the Ratbirds that year.

Shep Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Weeds was still slow last game... but faster than before. While Hoyer got the ball out in a very fast 2.9, Weeds was a glacial 4.1 last year. I read that he was 3.6 last game, which is a half second better. That's not for nothin', really. If he can get in the 3.3 area on average, that's fine for a guy who wants to let plays develop downfield. He just can't miss wide open receivers downfield. Total waste of his best asset, the cannon arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbndawg Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 My reply to every thread that is made on this board suggesting" someone" to replace Weeden is.......yes. Doesn't matter who it is or even if they are dead........the answer is yes bring him or her in. it cannot be any worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letsgojackets Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 I'm gonna watch Saints and Pats to see what real QB play looks like. It's like they're playing a different game. Also Weeden sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
