QB Brady Quinn's breakout game provides a glimmer of hope to the Browns offense. Prior to Sunday's loss in Detroit, the Browns had scored five offensive touchdowns in 16 games. But in the first quarter alone in Detroit, Quinn threw three touchdowns. He looked much better in part because the Browns let Quinn be a quarterback. They did not shackle him with a conservative game plan, and Quinn and the offense responded. "I thought that Brady and the entire offense did a really nice job operating the no huddle," coach Eric Mangini said. "Getting the shifts, getting the motions, getting the spacing against the calls that they had. Identifying the pressures, picking those up, because they had quite a few different packages that they ran and then when we had those chances, capitalizing on them." Quinn probably didn't erase every question about his future, but his 304-yard, four-touchdown game -- those are good numbers no matter the opponent -- should allow the Browns to breathe easier about him if he can follow with more good games. If the Browns come out of nothing else from this disaster of a season, they should at least have an idea of Quinn's abilities. Quinn, though, needs to follow up the game against Detroit with more strong efforts. If Quinn can't finish strong the final six games of the season, then the criticism will be leveled that he only did it against weak competition. Quinn needs a good game against a good team. |
