Battle for Lake Erie

Now is the time when the preseason games are really heating up. The third meaningless game is the one in which the starters get the most playing time. Of course, for the Browns, many starters will be sitting out due to injuries sustained in the New York debacle.

This does, however, open the door for Brady Quinn to get his first start. Finally, he'll get to see some action with the first team offense. I've said it before, I'm not happy D.A. is hurt, but I am happy Brady is getting a shot with the first team — that's what the preseason is all about.

Yes, this game against the Lions should be a good one to watch.


Three things I'm looking forward to in tomorrow night's "game":

  1. Brady Quinn — Of course. Those who know me expect me to say this, and those who don't know me probably expect me to say this just from reading other Blawg posts. I'm not trying to hide the fact that I'm a Brady Quinn fan.
  2. The D-Line — Tomorrow night will be the first time the whole "new" defensive line will be playing all together. Plus, with Rogers visiting his former team, I hope it's extra incentive for the unit to play tough.
  3. Bounce Back — How will the Browns respond after Monday's humiliating loss on national television? If they're going to be contenders this year, they've got to be able to shake off losses.

Three things I'm not looking forward to in tomorrow night's "game";

... um, OK, so there's nothing that I'm not looking forward to about tomorrow night's "game." It's football season. It's the Browns. What more could you ask for?

  1. Just hope Brady doesn't end up with a concussion, too. What I'm intrigued about this preseason game is how much can Steptoe increase his stock on the depth chart.

  2. I am not looking forward to Bernie Kosar's comments. He tends to be biased towards ex-Miami players. Also he thinks he should be a GM or President in the NFL but has no experience. OH and he tends to be drunk by the end of the game.
