You just had to really like to see that man coverage -
all NFL defensive backfields can be just as effective as that if they are prepared and coached properly - the players get the accolades but the coaches get them prepared and have a game plan that gives them the opportunity - it ain't so much the car as it is the driver
the Browns have a QB, they just need the support around him

I actually think this team might win a couple more games this year

I certainly hope you're not talking about Quinn. I watched him last nite, and he wasn't good at all. He doesn't set well which results in his inaccuracies.

Didn't they only pass the ball like 5 times in the 2nd half or something like that. With it being such a close game, you would have though that the coach would trust the QB more to throw the ball - or is he having issues in the passing game.

The little I've seen, they're playcalling makes our look like the Saints. They're offense is a mess with no #1 WR. Anyone dealing with the Browns offense should be fired outright IMO.

Pure speculation on my part, but Cleveland seems like a logical landing place for Charlie Weis as OC.

Weiss might be just what Quinn needs - he's a talented QB but he has looked really bad recently - it's probably not surprising to some but it seems a lot of these guys are only suited to certain systems or need a lot of help to be any good
I saw an interesting interview last night with Troy Aikman at the College Awards deal and he was saying the the current NFL QB needs to be so different than when he played - he says that the game has changed since he was playing and the current requirements for a QB to have any success are very different - just his opinion but an interesting perspective from a very heady QB
