Brady Quinn

[nsisk157]

Per Rotowire, will see action today.

Hope he shines, never got a fair shake.

First action in two years in the playoffs? Seems a little like entrapment.

 

[AllGoldEverything]

Really hope he does well. I agree he has never really had a fair shot in the NFL

 

[ACamp1900]

I still don't understand where his accuracy went during his time with Cleveland...

 

[BurningRiver]

Hasn't the idea that he'd play this weekend been shot down by just about everyone? I'm not saying it won't happen, but it just seems odd that his first meaningful snap in 2 years would come in the playoffs.

 

[nsisk157]

Appears to be 3rda down passing situations and other particular sets.

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

SO...

Denver fans will probably burn him at the stake if he makes one mistake?

That's my guess.

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

He's better than Tim Tebow, but about every other QB in the NFL is...

 

[anarin]

These are the situations he is put in. The lose lose ones.

I am a Notre Dame fan but Im also a Steeler fan. Brady Quinn doesn't play for Notre Dame anymore so I will definately be rooting against him.

Brady Quinn meet Troy Polamalu. He has NEVER faced a defense this good

Accuracy generally decreases when:
A. You have <2 seconds to throw (to no one good btw)
B. You are running for your life.

Tebow>Every person who has ever played the game of football (and, honestly, who has ever simply lived on this planet)

Yup.

Boom!

 

[Buster Bluth]

If Brady Quinn plays and the Broncos win the big dance I will start going to church again.

Hell, I might even put money in the collection basket.

B. You are running for your life.

And as a result have post traumatic stress disorder.

 

[Rocky2820]

As a Steelers fan, my only significant concern is that BQ plays in this game. I am very confident with Tebow in there, despite Pittsburgh's injuries.

As an ND fan I actually hope that BQ does well, just not well enough to put the result in jeopardy.

Sounds like his role is A.) 3rd down package, and B.) if they get down big and need to come back in a time-efficient manner.

Go BQ, but more so go Pittsburgh Steelers!

 

[IrishLax]

Should start Quinn and save Tebow for Tebow Time.

Before there was Tim Tebow there was Brady Quinn, God of the Improbable comeback....

Both Quinn and Clausen have been screwed in the NFL. It's really sad, actually, that two extremely talented quarterbacks have been all but ruined simply by being drafted into terrible situations.

to be fair, he didn't have terrible weapons his first year or two in Cleveland. The offensive line was unbelievable in '07 and almost all of the receivers had career years behind Derek Anderson (still feel uneasy typing that). When Brady got playing time, (it happened like twice) he played well. The next year when he replaced a struggling Anderson he had a pretty good debut against Denver and played pretty well for a few games until he suffered a season ending injury. It was '09 that really ended his time in Cleveland. He didn't have any weapons after the front office traded away our two best ones (and two biggest headaches), Braylon Edwards and Kellen Winslow Jr. Jamaal Lewis also had a down year and the O Line was riddled with injuries. CLE botched Brady's career from the start by not committing to either QB and he didn't exactly have an offensive juggernaut around him in his first full season, but he didn't do himself any favors either.

 

[IrishinSyria]

2 3 and outs in a row for Tebow. Never before in my life have I rooted so hard against a specific athlete. The Redemption of Brady Quinn is directly tied to the failure of Tim Tebow.

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

Looks like it could be Quinn time pretty quick here.

 

[Irish2015]

Teblow sucks!!!!

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

So much for that. lol. 2 great passes.

 

[BobD]

I think someone is wearing Tebows uniform? Those were great passes!

 

[johnnykillz]

No doubt. Lol.

Perfect on the money passes.

So does Tebow become super confident and roll to a "W" or was it a two fluke pass drive?

Fluke game?

Or will he put it together in the offseason?

I think it's fittin to be Tebow time...

Tebow Time for Marvel and ESPN | Comic News | News | Marvel.com

Tebow is a comic book super hero...

 

[BobD]

It would be funny if we saw Quinn in the 4th quarter to save Tebow for the next game.

 

[SaltyND24]

Yup...Quinn is definitely not getting into this game unless Tebow gets injured...My prediction is that Tebow goes into the locker room, touches Decker's knee and heals him. At least Bruton got the start at safety!
