Quinn is no sure bet, and I had no enthusiasm to champion him prior to signing him, but he has had a horrible string of bad situations with miscalibrated expectations, where he didn't astound like Cam Newton but also didn't shit the bed like Ryan Leaf, only to be supplanted by; a QB on a hot streak, a QB with more 'experience' and The People's Jesus, almost always on shitty shitty teams.

Now he has a chance with a coach who likes him, a team with lots of weapons, and competition that has no business even being in the league.

Nothing's guaranteed, but it's nice to have, even for a moment, something other than a black cloud of utter uselessness at QB for the foreseeable future. I'm not crowning anything, but I will let him make his case.

Brady Quinn's career stats: 10 TDs, 9 INTs, 52.1% completion percentage and a 66.8 QB rating.

That is a "glimmer of competence"?

LMAO You poor, clueless bastards.

We could have just kept Orton, at least he was arguably better than Cassel.

I've been here 13 years, go find where I've said ****-all about Quinn before today, . . . in college, before his draft, during the draft, his years in Cleveland, his years in Denver, ANYTHING before today.

But I have paid attention, and while he hasn't often helmed a powerhouse offense, it's not like he was making stupid mistakes or throws he was incapable of completing, or dancing around like a bunch of Kansas City pillowbitergots with no clue how to run an offense. Just a guy trying hard in a bunch of shitty situations often stacked against him unless he magically proved the second coming of Johnny Unitas.
