I can argue DA was better than weeden. Also he was a pro bowl alternate...

We signed two QBs to very small contracts because the only QB we had on the roster is a QB recovering from ACL rehab. Not to mention the players probably thought weeden was an incompetent QB and they are happy he is gone. I don't understand how this is confusing to anybody.

I'm not confused. I was just stating a fact that we canned Weeded but didn't replace him with anyone better.

I believe Young was an "alternate" in at least 1 of his pro bowls as well, but anyway... You defending Vince Young like his is still "that guy" from 2006 leads me to believe that you are the confused one.

You're the one who brought up Young. Derp.

Anyway, you can stick to coming up with arguments on why weeden should still be on our roster competing to be the third QB (LOL). I will stick to discussing players who actually will get major playing time. Thanks.

Who gives a fuck? It's our 3rd string QB for Christ sake.

So moving on to "major playing time players" are you in love with Mcgahee because of his pro bowls or do you think someone new will take the reign as starting RB even without the Pro Bowl Credentials?

McGahee isn't even on the team this year.


So let me get this straight..... You think that the Browns should've kept Weeden, with his high salary, to be the #3 QB, ahead of signing 2 QB's to contracts that don't equal his, not to mention are Younger, and have had more career success?

Nope not saying we should have kept him, not sure where I said that. But I did say we downgraded for backups with Vince Young and Thigpen.

For future posts, are you always going to put words in my mouth or is this like a one-time thing?

Did I put words in your mouth or ask you a question to understand you stance on this matter?

Just trying to understand your point of view.

But back to the subject at hand. As really don't feel like arguing on the internet.

I personally don't think its a downgrade, due to Weeden never showing he could be a competent player in the NFL. Where as the other two have had a moderate amount of success. And at the same time, I don't really think either guy will be on the roster opening day.
