With a left foot injury suffered late in last Sunday’s win over the Kansas City Chiefs, quarterback Brady Quinn will miss the last two games of the season. That means we all get the luxury of watching Derek Anderson once again this season, this time running a no-huddle offense.
Obviously, time will tell whether or not this leads to any success for Anderson, but the bigger point remains: has Quinn done enough to win the quarterback job next season? If it was between him and Derek Anderson, the question should be a unanimous and resounding yes. But do the Browns consider drafting a quarterback in the draft or signing one in free agency?
With as many holes as this team has, I don’t think one of the better picks should be spent on a quarterback. Free agency is certainly an option, but adding a new quarterback to start would pretty much end the Brady Quinn era in Cleveland. I know many people wouldn’t exactly lose sleep over it, but we still have not seen a lot of Quinn, and a quarterback is only as good as the guys around him, making the case to let him play with some added talent next season, provided that actually happens.

Dexter you apparently don't have any knowledge of Holmgrens career. He took a team in Green Bay that was in the dumps and led them to 2 Super Bowl appearances. Then he left and went to Seattle and rebuilt that franchise, and led them to a Super Bowl. Why on earth would you think he couldn't do the same for Cleveland. My guess is that within 3 seasons we will be in the playoffs and that within 5 years we will be in the SUPER BOWL!!!!!!!!
As for the DA and Quinn deal... DA will be gone next year. Quinn will be the starter. Holmgren knows how to develop a QB. He is the reason Farve is Farve, and he also turned Matt Hasselback into a good QB. I think Quinn has the talent, he just needs the tools and system around him to allow him to have success. Besides who you want them to draft? Bradford- bum arm, and system QB, Clausen- we already have a version of him in Quinn, Pike- system QB & injury prone, Tebow- Nobody thinks Tebow will be a QB in the Pros. He has poor mechanics, slow delivery, system QB, and he has played with superior talent his whole career that made him who he is. Everyone's guess on Tebow is that he will be a fullback/TE/H back.
Look man, I'm happy you're a fan, but try a little positive thinking and some research before you go damnning us to doom for the future. At least we are taking steps in the right direction.
