Better Turkey Day Watch? Texas-Texas A&M Or Giants-Broncos

Posted: 25th November 2009 by Erin McLaughlin in NFL
Why do guys love Thanksgiving? Duh, it is the one day where all you do is eat, drink beer, and watch football. That also extends to Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for watching football. For me, the best part is by having the games so spread out we get to watch teams other than the one we normally follow. This Thanksgiving day starts as it always does, with the Detroit Lions. While ...

Now That Is The Brady Quinn I Know

Posted: 22nd November 2009 by Erin McLaughlin in NFL
Last night I was at home with a bunch of mixed emotions. On one hand I was happy and nothing could bring me down because of the birth of my second son on Friday. At the same time, this Notre Dame fan was sulking over a third straight defeat by the Fighting Irish. After that team got off to a 6-2 start, they have just fallen apart. It was last night ...

It Is Just Hard To Watch Brady Quinn Like This

Posted: 17th November 2009 by Erin McLaughlin in NFL
Prior to the game last night, I was debating whether or not I even wanted to watch it. People have their opinions on Brady Quinn andáare not afraid to share it either way. For me, the thing I am most passionate about in sports is NotreáDame football. When Quinn was leadingáthe Irish, Notre Dame wasácloser to being Notre Dame than it had beenásince 1993. For that reason he will always be ...

Brady Quinn Needs To Realize What And Whom He Is Playing For

Posted: 11th November 2009 by Erin McLaughlin in NFL
On Wednesday, Brady Quinn was once again named the starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns. Many will probably think that I am happy about that, and I guess I am. However, while I do want to see him play, I also want him to succeed. And I just don't think any quarterback can succeed with this team. To be honest, I actually feel a little sorry for Derek Anderson at this ...

All This Quinn Fan Is Asking For

Posted: 26th October 2009 by Erin McLaughlin in NFL
After the Browns' loss to the Packers on Sunday, Eric Mangini said that he never considered putting in Brady Quinn. He said that he was comfortable with D.A. (Derek Anderson) as his starter. Mangini also noticeably dodged any questions that involved making a change back to Brady Quinn. Let me make one thing completely clear. I do not want Brady Quinn going back in at this point. He has no ...

Eric Mangini and Cleveland Browns Ruining Brady Quinn’s NFL Career

Posted: 5th October 2009 by Erin McLaughlin in NFL
In all likelihood, this will be my last articleáabout the Browns. What's going on in Cleveland just isn't right and I can't root for this team as long as Eric Mangini is the coach. Yes, I am a Brady Quinn fan, and always will be no matter what he does in the NFL. I am a college fan first and Quinn was a great quarterback at Notre Dame. Whatever he does in ...

Brady Quinn Will Have His Revenge On The Browns and Mangini

Posted: 30th September 2009 by Erin McLaughlin in NFL
Here we go again with another quarterback not living up to the hype in Cleveland. Brady Quinn joins the list of Charlie Frye, Tim Couch, Kelly Holcomb, etc. It seems like the same old story with a different name. There is only one difference in this case. This will come back to bite the Browns. Those other guys were at least given ample opportunity to develop their game at the NFL ...

Eric Mangini: I Know What You’re Doing.

Posted: 29th September 2009 by Erin McLaughlin in NFL
Last season, the Cleveland Browns went through four quarterbacks, due mainly to injuries. They failed to score a single touchdown in the last six games. That tells me three things: 1) the offensive line stinks, 2) there aren't enough playmakers, and 3) it doesn't matter who is playing quarterback. Of the four quarterbacks, the most promising was Brady Quinn. Romeo Crennel already decided that Quinn was the guy going forward.áAfter Derek ...

Cleveland Browns: Changing Quarterbacks Will Make No Difference

Posted: 26th September 2009 by Erin McLaughlin in NFL
The current state of the Cleveland Browns is an ugly one at that. This team is 0-2 and the mighty Ravens are coming to town. Off the field, there is turmoil too. Rookies can't take pranks. Players are getting fined for stealing bottled water. The team is just a real mess. Among the problems for the Browns have been offensive production. They have just one touchdown in the last 11 games. As ...
