The
Cleveland Browns named Brandon Weeden quarterback because they didn't
think Colt McCoy had the arm strength to compete in the NFL. They said
Brandon Weeden had a strong-arm with laser like accuracy, they said this
guy was going to help the Browns win football games.
If you don't know
by now who they are we are talking about the brain trust running the
Cleveland Browns football team. Mike Holmgren and his hand-picked head
coach who now has lost the last 9 games in a row Pat Shurmur.
Yes sir
Browns fans the brain trust of the Cleveland Browns gave you a
quarterback with such a laser arm he hasn't hit one of his receivers for
a long pass since he has taken over the starting job from Colt McCoy.
Yes sir Browns fans Brandon Weeden finished the Bills game with a 5-12
yard per pass average
Now I ask you the question, don't you think Colt
McCoy could throw the football for 5-1/2 yards? Don't you think the
Cleveland Browns would have done much better taking an offensive linemen
with the 22nd pick in the 2012 NFL draft? Your Cleveland Browns just
went out and laid another egg on the field this afternoon. Your
Cleveland Browns and My Cleveland Browns are now 0-3, and that just down
right sucks and as far as I am concerned most of the sucking is
because of Mike Holmgren and Pat Shurmur.
These are the guys who
decided to draft Brandon Weeden with the 22nd pick, how can you honestly
sit there and tell me the Cleveland Browns are a much improved football
team? The Browns have lost their first three games of the season and I
don't see things turning around on Thursday night when the Browns travel
to Baltimore to take on the Ravens, do you?
The Browns have a very
realistic chance of starting the season at 0-7. They have the Ravens
next then the Giants, they take on the Bengals at home which could be a
win but they will probably find a way to lose this game in front of
their home town fans. The Browns have played better on the road than
they have at home. Then they take on the Indianapolis Colts.
The
Browns may find a way to beat the Colts to give Cleveland their first
win on the season. The problem is Luck and his Colts are going to
continue to improve as the season progresses. The Browns haven't shown
signs of improvement and as long as Pat Shurmur is on the side lines
calling the plays they may not.
The first official act of the new
ownership should be to fire head coach Pat Shumur and then he should
move upstairs and fire Mike Holmgren for bringing that idiot here in the
first place.
The Cleveland Browns are not an improved team with
Brandon Weeden at the starting quarterback position, he is 0-3 and if
they were improved we would see a win.
The Browns suck because their
leadership sucks, that includes Mike Holmgren for making stupid
decisions that have cost the Browns wins. He sits in front of his
microphone at his press conferences telling us what a good man Shurmur
is and yet the Browns continue to produce losses. Shurmur may be a good
man but he sucks as a football coach.
Shurmur was in such a hurry
to replace Colt McCoy as the starting quarterback he named Weeden the
starter before he even seen him in one preseason game. The Browns fans
deserve better, they are the most loyal fans in the league and they get
nothing but losses. This is unacceptable.
Brandon Weeden makes bad
decisions on the football field he is too predictable. He now has
thrown 6 interceptions in his first 3 games. He would have had more if
the Bengals had any kind of defense. The Bills defense is just a cut
above the Bengals and it shows you Weeden is unable to look off his
receivers before he throws the ball.
The only good thing about Weeden is
at least when he takes a sack now, he holds onto the football. As far
as this accurate arm we all heard about, we haven't seen it yet. Weeden
had Travis Benjamin open 2 yards in front of the Buffalo Bills coverage,
Weeden who was labeled with such a strong-arm under-threw the ball and
this made Benjamin hold up to try to catch it which let the Bills
coverage break up the pass.
If Weeden had the strong-arm we were
promised by Holmgren and Shurmur that would have been 6 points on the
board. Making plays like that in a game are momentum changes. Weeden
hasn't been able to do that yet. The Momentum is always against the
Cleveland Browns. The Fans are sick and tired of losing football games.
The powers to be, don't seem to be changing things and it looks like
another change needs to be made.
As far as I am concerned that change can't come soon enough....
