WPB Dawg Fan Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 OK, you guys want a COMPLETE breakdown: Drives BQ: 8 DA: 9 Offensive Ball Movement (total TEAM yds while at QB including rushing) BQ: 324 DA: 263 Average Drive: BQ: 40.5 DA: 29.2 Drives less than 20 yards: BQ: 2 DA: 4 Drives less than 10 yards: BQ: 1 DA: 3 Turnovers: BQ: 1 DA: 2 Completion %: BQ: 67.7 DA: 57.7 (this kind of explains the longer drive average, don't you think?) Basically, what all this is saying is that Quinn will give the Browns defense a much better chance of NOT giving up tons of points. His drives are longer, even when they don't end up in points. The Browns offense will control the clock better with BQ at the helm...and he is less likely to turn the ball over. This all adds up to a less exciting...but far more competitive team. I will take a winning season over a couple of ooooh ahhh plays any time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WPB Dawg Fan Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 Hey WPB...are those stats just from this preseason? Yeah....anything from years past really don't mean that much anymore. It is what is happening NOW that Mangini is going to be looking at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WPB Dawg Fan Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 I guess my point was, I think we will have fewer "OOOH, AHHH" plays with BQ at the helm. More of a blue collar, work your way down the field type offense. Personally, I favor that. I prefer making the other team's offense sit and spin for 7+ minutes while they watch you march slowly down the field for a score. I also think WINNING is far more exciting than a 79 yard TD bomb. But that is just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
