Since Quinn went straight to back up after leaving the Browns, it points to him being a bad QB.
Do you think the Browns "ruined" him?

Ruined him? No. Set him back? Yes.
Quinn sitting for the first year because of DA's success was fine. Mangini ****ed up Quinn because anytime he threw an INT....he would get pulled. Then he would get put back in....until he screwed up again and then he would get pulled. Quinn never really got an opportunity to "learn" from his mistakes. Then he gets traded to the Broncos....and he gets to sit behind Orton and Tebow. He was never really going to get a chance to compete in that situation.
Do I think Quinn is a Top 10 QB? No. But he can at least be a really good backup QB.
