There are a good number of people in here that act like those fans on a current commercial...they start knocking food off the counter, a guy starts burning his gear in the backyard. Ranting how the seasons over..then someone reminds them that is only the 1st play of the new season.
I think a good number of them were the ones calling for DTR to start over Watson and now they see how foolish that thought was and now want nothing to do with the guy. Yup.. I agree.. I don't remember for sure but was there ever a rookie back up to ever successfully take over for the starter? I mean other than Tom Brady who I think we can all agree, was a special case. Brock Prudy SFO 2022. Taking over for an injured Jimmy Garoppolo, Purdy, (a 7th round 262nd overall of the 2022 NFL Draft) finished 7-0 in games he started and finished. He had the San Francisco 49ers one game from the Super Bowl before suffering a torn UCL ligament in his right elbow in the opening quarter of the NFC Championship Justin Herbert LAC 2020 The Chargers decided to ease Herbert into a starting role after selecting him with the No. 6 pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. However, a medical accident that left Tyrod Taylor with a punctured lung sprung the former Oregon gun-slinger into action in Week 2. In his first game, Herbert flashed against the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs, tossing for 311 yards, one passing touchdown, and one interception while adding a rushing touchdown. Dak Prescott 2016 Selected in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft, Prescott was never supposed to start in his rookie campaign. However, backup Kellen Moore broke his leg in training camp, and longtime starter Tony Romo suffered a vertebral compression fracture in Week 3 of the preseason. All of a sudden, Prescott was the starting quarterback for America's Team. Ben Roethlisberger PIT 2004 Much has changed since Roethlisberger replaced injured teammate Tommy Maddox in Pittsburgh's second game of the 2004 season. One thing that had remained the same, however, was No. 7 being the starting quarterback for the Steelers. Steve Young TBB 1985 Replaced injured Steve Deberg for the final 5 games of 1985. A note about Tom Brady - contrary to your post, Brady never started a game during his rookie year 2000. He threw a total of 3 passes with 1 completion for 6 yards his entire rookie campaign.

Would you like to see a list of all the times it failed? I didn't think so.
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

It was how many rookies were successful taking over for the starter in their rookie year. The thought process was only Brady but that was not correct. I'm sure there have been many failures but that wasn't the topic sir. I have no beef with you, just replying to a particular topic.

Just showing that the odds of the counterpoint are much, much, much more significant than the odds of success when it comes to this. Nothing personal was intended or implied.

8:20 left in the 2nd quarter. I'll drop a screenshot in the discord. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/CgqC3uR.jpeg) They are doing similar around 12:00 left in the 3rd quarter but both are sitting. Charles Davis commented about Watson giving DTR the "benefits of his wisdom." Cool. Thanks.

I wanted to get an idea what the rest of the teams in the NFL were doing about manning their "back-up QB" position. These are just the AFC half of the NFL, but it gives us an idea how other teams manage their rosters concerning backup QB needs.
The Browns were the only team in the AFC use a rookie QB with no prior NFL experience as their backup QB for a regular season game.
Pretty self explanatory ) the team...) the #2 QB/yrs of experience...)#3 QB/yrs of experience.

If you're going to claim the Browns are the only ones, you probably shouldn't copy a list that shows the Raiders using Aidan O'Connell. Just saying.

Geez, Brian Hoyer is still around.... Yikes and he had one of the best stretches in our post-99 history too ... 9 years ago already
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

The Browns don't have one of those, a #3 QB.

PJ Walker is our QB 3 at the moment. Nothing you wrote here makes the erroneous claim you made any less wrong.
