Quinn looks good throwing the ball short to the RB...
Play calling on his drive thus far have been horrible. If they are serious about him playing this year, they need to see him go down field. Teams like Steelers, Ravens will chew up these short passes.

was it a wr screen?
watching the play by play it looks like he dinks and dunks a lot again this game.....I think it could be more what Quinn knows he can do rather than looking at his first choice he is checking down. But you are right no way will he spend more than 2 series doing this in the regular season against any team. But I could be wrong and they are just giving him those few sets of plays.

I would love to see him play with the first team. I would be shocked if he doesnt next week.
I would love to see him start the first game against the Steelers, cause even though I love my Steelers, I think we are in for a boring 13-10 or 12-9 game.

Did you miss the deep pass in the endzone to JJ?

Medium pass to Cribbs. He threaded the needle a little.

Not Quinns fault. He put the ball in a perfect spot and JJ stepped OTB.

Brady has thrown 10 balls thusfar in the game.
NFL.com play by play has a description of "pass short" on 9 of them.

5 of his passes have been thrown to the RB, I am sure his RB aren't 10+ yards own field. They are going 2-3 yards and turning around and getting the ball.

The Cribbs TD was not a pass short even though NFL.com said it is. Cribbs caught it on the 3 yard line.Brady has thrown 10 balls thusfar in the game.

I;; ll wait to next week as he came to camp late, but when he has thrown deep his balls have been good.

hey there you go....deep pass.....to the RB
I'm just messing with everyone, he looks good doing what he does. There is nothing to compare it to. I too agree to take the diapers off the kid and stop checking down all the time

But he supposed to be a pass catching RB. That was a gift of a pass.

Your right I'm wrong. I was thinking the catch happened where the dive happened. but I'm doing about 5 things at the same time.

im not trying to prove you wrong it was a designed play to cribbs so he could use his speed. there have been alot of little 5 yd passes but most have been either desined that way or everyone was covered. i think quinn is doing a good job of scanning the fields and taking what is given to him. he doesnt look at the rec 2-3 times like frye and anderson does. they useallu dont look at the check off man till either its way too late or or after 2-3 looks at the rec. thats why these plays are working a little better for quinn. it doesnt give the def a chance to see the back stand there waiting for the check down pass. he just hits them while they have room to run. if we can dink and dunk like that all game long and throw the depp ball once in awhile to keep them back some i will take it.

I agree with everything you just said, but I'm still a little unsure about Quinn. He did a great job of taking what Denver gave him, but I'd still like to see a few more deep strikes. I can't fault the guy he's played fantastic but I still have trouble throwing him the keys to the Lamborghini when all that perfect driving has been at 5 miles an hour. I'm hoping he gets a few more chances to go deep next week. When he did, he was on target, but I need to see a few more deep throws.
I would too. People I think way underestimate the value of "dink and dunk". Not all QBs see the field well enough to do that. J
I don't mean this to sound like a knock on the Browns as I like them but this team isn't a Lamborghini. This team is a chevy. With some miles. It makes throwing Quinn in there much easier. It's a lot more like Arizona or Tennessee last year than Denver with Cutler who most thought was a playoff contender.J

It seems like SY did better than Sapp but it would be nice to hear from someone who watched the game.

SY looked quick and had some nice moves. He is not a power back and could not handle a heavy workload. Sapp looked powerfull. He made quick reads and seemed to gain 4-5 on every run. If Henry goes down, they have a nice little thunder and lightning thing to fall back on. To answer your question, I would say no, but it's like comparing Westbrook to Bettis. Lets remember that this was the Browns and SY faced mostly their 2nd stringers. BTW, if I had the Donkey D, which I do, I would keep an eye on the waiver wire!It seems like SY did better than Sapp but it would be nice to hear from someone who watched the game.

Ok bad analogy, but we do have a Bentley with re-treads!
