Displaced Cleveland Fan

Meet your new starting quarterback, Browns fans.

I guess we shouldn’t be surprised at anything this year. Derek Anderson, despite playing badly, started the first 8 games of the season. Then Romeo Crennel finally gives Brady Quinn the starting job. Quinn starts 3 games before having his season ended by a broken finger. Back comes Anderson. Then this week, in a game that should not have been this close, he has a chance to lead a game winning drive in the final 2 minutes. But he goes down. Welcome Ken Dorsey.

Foxsports.com is reporting that Brady Quinn will miss the rest of the season due to the injury to his finger. Apparently what was thought to be minor turned out to be a bigger problem than first expected.

Can it get any worse for the Browns?

The Browns were playing host to the Houston Texans on Sunday. This is the Houston team that came in with a 3-7 record, 8 consecutive road losses, and had backup Sage Rosenfels starting at QB. Great chance to pick up a home win in the middle of an already disappointing season. And what do the Browns do? They play like the Michigan Wolverines.

What a way to finish off the regular season.

With the win…

• The Buckeyes clinch at least a share of the Big Ten title.
• They win their 5th straight game against Michigan.
• Beat them by 35 points - the largest margin of victory over the Wolverines since 1968.
• And they help cap off the Michigan’s worst season. Ever.

Romeo will survive at least one more week.

Honestly, after Phil Dawson kicked the go-ahead FG, I thought the Bills were going to come back and win. I figured we were looking at a third consecutive loss where this team blew a double-digit lead (and hopefully as a result, would bring about a head coaching change). But the defense forced a long FG attempt for Buffalo. Rian Lindell put it wide right. Cleveland is 2-0 on Monday night.

It’s been a little while since I mentioned the Cavaliers. I have to admit, it’s much easier to do regular updates on Browns and Buckeyes football since they only play once a week. With basketball games every 2-3 days, it’s hard to keep up with it all from a distance. But here’s the latest update.

305.

That’s the number of rushing yards Ohio State had against the Illini. Chris “Beanie” Wells ran for 143 yards. Terrelle Pryor added 110 on the ground. The running game was so effective that Pryor only had to attempt 10 passes.
