Thy expect him to be the guy! They drafted him in the 1st round, McCoy was a 3rd. McCoy has no arm. Wallace has been a 10 year back up. Heckert really went out on a limb with this bold statement.

This is the same guy who father made him sit out of a national championship game to save his draft stock – Colt has no heart
Fans are screaming give him one more year, but he had two years of chances. Either you got it or you don’t. Brady took his from Bledsoe and Manning got his chance and they both ran away with it – Colt does not have the DNA of a NFL QB.
If Weeden is good or bad, then the Browns made a good choice because they weren’t going far with Colt McCoy.

With Richardson and Weeden, all that’s really left is a stud receiver and you guys will probably be winning some games very soon. Too bad the team wasn’t able to add a big vet like V. Jax or someone who can teach the young WR how to play the position well.

He wasn’t supposed to play under Mangini yet it happened. He had to learn an offense with no WRs, no line and no RBs in a short season. Weeden is lucky he has the OTAs to help him learn a new offense. McCoy would have loved that chance. As a die hard fan I will eventually support whoever is the QB, but McCoy got the short end of the stick.

It’s a competition to see who will be handing the ball off to Trent Richardson and Brandon Jackson for 16 games.

As for that last paragraph, that is a totally different situation. Brady Quinn was a home state guy which is why the Browns fans were behind him. They were behind Troy Smith too and he wasn’t even on the Browns. None of the QB’s currently in Cleveland are from Ohio or “The” Ohio State University so there isn’t much player loyalty this time around. The only way that changes is if Joe Haden decides he wants to be the starting qb then I’m pretty sure the people of Cleveland would then back him over all their current QB’s even if he was horrible at it.

I think Romo is good, but if he doesn’t get the Cowboys in the playoffs or past. at least, the first round, they will look for another QB. I think McCoy hasn’t been provided the WRs or coaching to succeed at the level that the Browns wish for – more like wishful thinking. Orton can play, but McCoy, with the right players, could be a very good QB.

Listen to him talk and tell me this is a guy who is going to get us to the playoffs! I can’t say that out loud without starting to laugh.

Now with a solid “o” oline and the best RB in the division, the balance of power begins to shift and the Brownies will soon reclaim their rightfull spot atop the AFC north and dominating for the next decade. It’s True, Let it be written ,so let it be done!

Seneca Wallace has changed his mind all of a sudden about ” helping out ” ..yeah your non productive azz is about to get cut and you know it . how much Wallace can help is up in the air .
