77% were wrong believing our HC wouldn't be fooled by the mirage of preseason, but the Allen Era begins week 2!

I guess I am surprised at the results.  Peterman showed he has a better grasp of the offense. 

Peterman brings little in the way of NFL experience, though. Whenever Allen starts, he will have less time in the offense than NP. I’d start Peterman in the first few games while the O line situation gets sorted out. Unless Peterman looks like Joe Montana , there’s not much to be gained playing Peterman for very long.

And before you say that was last year... has there been a single game he's played where he hasn't thrown a pick or a shoulda-been-a-pick with one of the most standard passes there is in the NFL: the short to intermediate out-route?

Has anyone bought into Allen yet? I just can't get there. When has teaching a kid how to be a QB when he's never proven capable of being an elite QB at lower levels ever worked? He doesn't make quick decisions. He doesn't make the right decisions. He isn't accurate with the football. He doesn't appear to have good touch on his passes. This guy looks like taller JP Losman out there. 

 

It's not like all this info wasn't available going into the draft. Yet Beane and McDermott pay the price equivalent of the number one overall pick to move to seven to take him. 

 

Between the Allen reach, throwing away all that draft capital, and all the Carolina re-treads, I'm starting to lose faith in this new regime. That's the worst part. I actually bought in to those guys. Please someone convince me I'm wrong.

 

Edit: my biggest fear is McDermott will wait until week 8-10 to play Allen, and then pass on a legit QB with our inevitable top 5 pick because Allen needs more time. I sincerely hope we give him the chance to prove boom or bust this year.

Youre clearly forgetting about the Elite NFL hand size our rookie stallion possesses. Do your research. You only get one pass.

Abstaining doesn't mean it doesn't happen...

 

Who do you THINK starts next week?

 

Ok, who do I THINK? Nasty Nate.

 

if I had to pick, I'd probably go with Josh. I don't want him to start just a teeny bit less than i don't want Nasty Nate to start.

The first step is admitting it.

Welcome, brethren.

 

i REALLY didn't want him start right off. It's the EJ situation all over again. No veteran QB because we ran him off and the guy they signed can't make it out of PS. Drafted as a total project. Now starting (if he starts) because he's all we got. Bad QB roster management IMHO.

 

Hopefully it works out better this time.

You don’t think Daboll can scheme Allen away from this O-Line?

good point. We haven't seen the new offense yet.  If Daboll is good he should be able to make it work. Would there is a better chance of that happening than with Nasty Nate.

 

Josh could wind up and throw 5 or 6 bomb s a game to keep the d honest. Maybe connector get on a couple for example.

Right. It makes the 2nd and short run more lethal when they are worried about a deep shot.

I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. 

 

He's been my guy all along.  You can laugh and count him out all you want, but none of us really know who it will be. Based on things he's said, I think Coach McDermott likes AJ more than a lot of people around here think.

 

We'll see what happens ...

So you staying with AJ as your starter? Lol.

Hopefully they go:

Week 1: Start Allen, pull him after 1st half, regardless of performance. Give confusing, mixed-message presser afterwards.

Week 2: Start Peterman, if he plays well, pull him immediately. Also, pull starting O-line. All of em. Then put Allen in.
Week 3: Start them both, running the Wildcat with Allen out wide and Peterman taking handoffs from Shady.
Week 4: Start them both again, with the stipulation they can only run Statue of Liberty plays between each other. Bench them both, insert Logan Thomas.

Week 5: Promote both to captain, trot them to center field prior to coin toss, and have them do their own coin toss before the real one to see who gets to be starter for the day. Run out & publicly rip the "C" label off loser's jersey to humiliate them further.



Week 6: Ask how you're not fired yet, then quit. At least you entertained yourself.

You're already in 2019 draft mode. 

 

Troll away douche.  

Not sure how recognizing the offense is void of talent is trolling...

The choices at QB are an interception machine or  innacurate rookie, c'mon, how do you think this is going to go? Fan hope has nothing for this impending disaster of a season. But hope away!

just hope you’ll stfu, Streater td was so

unimpressive amirite !! 

 

Whats your gofundme link ?   I’ll ship you a few dollars for Browns tickets.  

 

They played last year without a qb and made the playoffs.   I don’t think I get your point other than the LAMPS.

Peterman will start.

 

They're in no hurry to ruin Allen.

 

If this were part of the thought process, McCarron would still be on the team and Allen would be the 3rd string QB.

 

McDermott and Beane are clearly comfortable playing Allen this year, sooner or later.
