Will someone please tell me why Cleveland Browns head coach Romeo Crennel will not pull Derek Anderson as the starting quarterback?...yesterday's fiasco against the Baltimore Ravens is just another misstep in a series of inconsistent play by Anderson which have cost the Browns another game...Cleveland, who some were predicting for the playoffs, now stand at 3-5 and 1-3 within the division...with eight games remaining the season is not entirely lost...therefore Crennel must name Brady Quinn the starting quarterback for this Thursday's home game against Denver...
For some reason Crennel stands on the sidelines like a Shrek-like oaf who is determined to go down with Anderson as the captain of the ship...Anderson had a brilliant first half of the season last year...since then, he has become an inconsistent quarterback who does just enough to save his job...he is not the second coming of Tom Brady...
The quarterback position is not the only woe for this team...former Michigan All-American wide receiver Braylon Edwards has regressed in his maturation process...last season Edwards capped the year with 15 TDs and a spot on the All-Pro team...it looked like he was primed to become an elite receiver and be linked with Randy Moss, Terrell Owens, Marvin Harrison, etc...but Edwards has been a huge disappointment...just as Anderson has been inconsistent, Edwards has been consistent in dropping catch able balls...he has dropped 12 balls so far this year...that is not acceptable for an NFL receiver...
General manager Phil Savage should hold a meeting with Crennel and encourage him to make the move to Brady Quinn...by starting him on a short week, it will allow him to get real game experience in which he will then have 11 days to learn from his mistakes...
Change is in the air with election day tomorrow...but will there be a change in Cleveland at the quarterback position before there is a change at the head coaching position?...
