    They drafted him because their evaluations of him as a prospect told them to draft him, they evaluated him favorably compared to guys like Mahomes or Watson relative to cost of drafting him.  It's also good business to have a cheap young QB on the roster to potentially develop.  They started him because they wanted to see what he could do.  If he ran with the job successfully, they would likely view him as the starter this offseason and either sign a vet backup or potentially used another late round pick on a QB.  If he's a complete failure, they draft one early if there's one they like.

     

    If by "fall into the same trap they always do" means win 6-7 games, pick 9th, draft after all the prime QB prospects are off the board in an area that's traditionally been a wasteland for QB talent (the mid-late 1st), then yes, they are going to fall into the same trap they always do.  The Browns have to go QB #1, if they trade away ANOTHER franchise QB the closest anyone there gets to working in football again is cold calling to sell season ticket packages.  The 49ers likely put their pick up for auction, the Colts and Bears may do the same, the Giants and Broncos also have to be looking at the QBs.  A franchise QB is the only way this thing really gets fixed, but man, I'm hesitant to see what the price tag would be to go from pick ~12 ish to pick #2, and still potentially not get the guy we really want.

    Gotta give them credit for trying to find one

    God no. Cousins is an idiot who has already lost two games single-handedly with stupid decisions. I'd rather have Tyrod.

    If he put up huge numbers, then obviously the problem isn't Cousins

    Cousins gave up 15 points in the last 5 minutes.. He missed a block on third and one and the running back got stuffed.  Then he was playing defense and missed a few tackles.

    What happened? It wasn't long ago that we hadn't given up a passing TD all year. Now it's a guarantee.

     

    It looks to me like all it takes is an experienced veteran QB, and they will be able to pick apart this defense.

     

    It's not a necessarily innovative defense, but we won 5 of our first 7 because they were opportunistic and played fast to their spots even if they were caught out of position.

    Wait.. it’s because Dareus was traded right?
