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.

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 has been reported that Brady Quinn has replaced Derek Anderson as the Browns’ starting QB. He will start Thursday against Denver.

Another one slips away.
The Browns lost at home to Baltimore. This was a must-win game for the Browns to have any shot at the playoffs. Sure, they’re far from being statistically eliminated. But for all practical purposes, this season is done.

Apparently the Browns problems go much deeper than an inconsistent QB, #1 WR with butterfingers, and a mediocre head coach. Some of these things were already apparent. Some are just now coming to light. Even from a distance, it’s apparent that this organization is in trouble.
The first six games of the season has made it clear that Derek Anderson is not the answer at starting QB. I don’t think he’d make a bad backup, but he can’t start. He’s had one good game out of six. That’s not good enough, especially when there is, potentially, a very good option in Brady Quinn on the bench.
What’s worse is that although most people can see that Quinn needs to start instead of Anderson, the head coach doesn’t see that. Why? I don’t know. Maybe Romeo’s too busy trying to figure out what situations warrant the use of a timeout. Whatever the reason, Quinn sits because Crennel won’t do anything. And Phil Savage, the GM, just sits back and lets this happen.

Back to reality.
That 35-14 win over the Giants last week that had Derek Anderson throwing for 300+ yards and 2 TDs, Braylon Edwards totally 154 receiving yards, and had Romeo Crennel “earning” Coach of the Week honors… that was a fluke. The real Cleveland Browns were back today against the Redskins.

Phil Savage isn’t giving up on the Browns season yet. So I guess we shouldn’t either?
You know, he’s probably right. Even though the Browns were dangerously close to starting 0-4, they did manage to get an ugly win in Cincinnati and now have the bye week to try and get their act together.
So what’s going to change? Apparently not the quarterback. Or the head coach. At least not yet according to the GM on Monday: (more…)
