I think Weeden was given the job before training camp even started, think I heard that from the coach or owner, don't think McCoy even was in the picture.

Nose tackles I can't wait to see next season in the NFL(further proof that you "can't teach height"),Ole Miss senior offensive lineman Terrell Brown 6ft 10in 385lbs(I'd convert him to nose tackle) & Tennessee (just a) sophomore defensive tackle Daniel McCullers 6ft 8in 360lbs. I mean,all you need for a nose tackle to do is plug up the middle & I believe that these two players would certainly excel in that.
When Brandon Weeden got lost in the American flag,I could just hear Bill Engvall saying,"here's your sign."
like jim said, even before training camp began the decision was made. why? i have no idea........ maybe in time this decision will turn out to be the right one.

Because if you draft a QB in the 1st round..the assumption is that he is either "your future" or your "franchise"..might as well throw him in the deep end and force him to learn to swim.

As great as John Elway turned out,I still remember him lining up behind the guard instead of the center his rookie season.
i understand that but look at us. the only reason why ryan is starting now is because the difference wasn't huge to the other qb's. if it been drastic he would've sat for at least 6 games. maybe that's the case with the browns but i don't know.
I think that decision for Tanneyhill to start was already etched in stone Rey. With the injury to Gerard, it made the explanation...NOT the decision, easier to explain to the fanbase and the media.
You do not select a QB in the top 10 picks to hold a clipboard. ALSO, seeing that this franchise has gone through 17 starting QBs since Marino...Gerard was NOT going to create excitement..and possible "asses in seats" like a big armed, good-lookin-wife-8th-overall-draft-pick like Tanneyhill.
I maybe full of beans....but I am willing to be the farm that IF this kid signed before the "Hard Knocks" cameras started rolling...they would try everything in their power to start him.
that is why i will not miss him. yeah i get we don't have much right now but with marshall its so irritating to see the talent yet not be able to take full advantage of it. but i'm sure he'll blame the drops on someone else this season,again
Raiders put Jacoby Ford on IR. Also put starting CB Ron Bartell on IR with the designation to return, means he could potentially come back later in the season for those not familiar with the new rule.
After the 1st drive by the Dolphins...the Raiders defense has held them check. The offense has been stagnant because the Raiders have yet to establish any kind of ground game in either the Chargers game nor this one. The Chargers like the Dolphins have basically stacked 7 in the box....and it has payed off for opposing teams against the run so far.
