Weeden ranked last in Jaworski’s QB rankings

Is it fair to discredit a QB because of WR drops? Jaws should stick to what he does best- give crap color insight.

That’s fine. It’s simplistic anyway. Considering some of the contracts too, I’m happier to have Colt McCoy than Mark Sanchez or even Mike Vick for that matter, let alone Weeden. I’d rather have a mediocre third round QB with scrappy ability who makes third round money instead of a guy who not only kills you on the field, but on the cap.

And don’t tell me for a second you’d rather have Skelton, Gabbert or Cassell. I just don’t buy it. I don’t think I’m delusional with Weeden. He trails every QB in the AFC North and has a lot to prove, but come on. Right this second he’s better than Gabbert at least.

Talk about damning with faint praise. Honestly, who cares? If he’s at least better than Gabbert that is.

I agree completely. I cannot stand the national TV announcers for the NFL. They are clueless many times when talking about the Browns. It’s like they see they are getting assigned to a Browns game, look at the record and the box scores, pick one or two guys they want to talk about during that game, and boom – act like, because of that, they are prepared to be the “colorman” for the game. They re-hash the national pundit talking points, and never have the knowledge that the fans on this site have because we watch every Browns game and they don’t. The simple fact that Jaws adds in his write up that he will be “watching very close” is a Freudian slip….proving that he hasn’t been watching closely. It is easy to criticize the Browns and their players and that’s what these guys continue to do. Just admit you haven’t paid attention to them and you’d get way more respect in my book.

i would take weeden today over:
31. skelton
30. cassel
29. gabbert
28. hasselbeck
27. fitzpatrick
26. sanchez
25. ponder
24. wilson
22. palmer
18. vick
there’s a good dozen more where i’d rather have weeden.

“At the backbone of these rankings is career achievement. Who has shown me the most over the longest period of time?” says jaworski. uh ok. i vote for elway then.

so this is a fully asinine exercise to perform past the top 10. wholly a prop for tired bye-week sports talk shows. e.g., ‘who’s the best qb today but also who who you take on your team’ re-hash. ‘brady’s the best but i’d rather of rodgers because he’s younger.’

stale. nothing to be concerned with.

not to be picky, but I’d take Rodgers over Weeden because Rodgers is younger.

i thought that the analysis last week was great. The analyst (former Raiders QB – escaping me right now) showed replays and explained where and why Weeden was wrong. That, to me, is expert analysis. I know lots of you thought he was hard on Brandon, but that’s a former NFL QB with a good football mind explaining the trade.

I think Weeden seems to have a lot to learn. All i ask of a rookie is that you get better every week – and Weeden has done that.
