Brandon Weeden, your take

William on 4 Nov 2012 - 4:01pm #

Yes. Cleveland leads the league in drops. Weeden is 2nd in passing yards amongst all rookies. He isn't playing a great game against the Ravens right now, but I say he's the QB for the next 5-7 years.

get the ball back, with a chance to take the lead, late in the 3rd quarter and you have back-to-back false starts and thena time-out. Why do I watch these Clowns?

I've been defending Shurmur for most of the year, but he has to go after this season.

William, I agree. That said, this game isn't pretty, but Weeden is showing flashes, Richardson has fought for over 100 yards, and the defense has never looked so inspired.

while the Browns may win more games than I thought, Weedon is nothing spectacular to write home about, and will likely be gone in 2-3 years (just in time to file for Social Security)

Will the Browns get the win today? It would be so nice, but I'm sooo sure the will find a way to f-this up.

The defense has played well since Haden's return, but they're a CB, FS, and OLB away from being a juggernaut. The offense needs some OGs, and a WR.

weeden is okay for now. looking forward to the new owner making changes, hopefully the head coach is gone and he acquires a qb that will be around for 12 to 15 years instead of an old man who may be around 5 yrs at best.

I'd argue that a better edge rushe slightly better pass rush would make the whole D look better

11 points given up with 7 minutes to go, on their own field, how sad. house cleaning time for sure.

House cleaning? I don't think so. A DC whose team gives up less than 50 yards in two combined quarters doesn't need to go

Weeden is no different than any one of his like 25 predecessors since 1999.

Class of 2010.

The Browns will have a new Head Coach in 2013, due to a new Owner and GM, so House Cleaning is inevitable.

if not a housecleaning, definitely some changes are in order, unless of course winning 4 to 6 games a year is acceptable, imo that sucks, and it has sucked how many years now? giving up 11 points in the last 7 minutes of a game on your home field, i find it unacceptable. inept defense, virtually no offense. this isnt peewee football, fer god sakes.

I don't see why they are always relying on Weedon, even on 3rd and 1. Richardson seems to be running really well. Why Shurmur and company *refuse* to run the ball on 3rd and 1 boggles my mind.

Real fans stay for Carmen.

Weeden will stay, Gordan has show flashes of greatness, and Little cannot hang onto the ball. This team will be better now that Phil Taylor is back.

What we do know is that Richardson is a beast.

Weeden will do well by playing this year right away. I think if the Browns can put at least 1 more playmaker (wr that can catch) on offense he will be good. Maybe wishful thinking on my part but he shows signs of being a great passer. I really like his down field passing. I think the real problem is in the play calling from the coaching staff. As said many times 3rd and 2 and we throw deep or 3rd and 7 and WR's run 3 yd outs. Man o Man drives us Browns fans nuts.
