“In my first action as consultant to the Cleveland Browns, I’d like to announce that the disenfranchised QB would be better off on another team, even though I have no authority to make such a move and that it does not make the team writing my new, much-needed paychecks any better.”

On a related note, assuming the surprising yet not-really-shocking occurs and Quinn is traded today. Which was a worse jersey purchase, Tim Couch or Brady Quinn?

I think this says more about Bernie Kosar than it does about Brady Quinn. I have visions of them changing the locks over in Berea and Kosar walking around with his key ring trying to open his office door. I can’t imagine that this kind of statement is going to sit well with coach Mangini.
I’m uncomfortable with the whole consultant role for Kosar. I think he knows a lot about football and he might be useful as a QB trainer (helping with reads for example) but on the surface it seems like a vote of no-confidence from Lerner.

I didn’t post this because I thought Kosar had some magical authority. I posted it because I’m fairly certain that the team upon hiring him would have either coached him on what not to say if this topic was brought up or advised him to try and avoid it.

Like I said in an earlier thread. I don’t think any words or actions done by the team under Mangini are wasted and they all have serve a purpose in some way to progress his vision.

Oh well, guess that’s just me. Back to your morning coffee, nothing to see here.

Kosar knows more about the x’s and o’s than Mangini will know the day he retires. It’s important that among the 1700 people who report to Lerner, at least one of them has the balls to call out Mangini for abandoning a possibly serviceable qb prematurely.

Lerner couldn’t buy off Kosar’s dedication to Browns fans. If you hadn’t noticed, there’s a very strong connection there. As much of a douche that Kosar has been to everyone else, he maintains a standard in this relationship.
