Rogers Named Starting QB
The Cleveland Browns have announced that defensive lineman Shaun “Big Baby” Rogers has been named starting QB for the 2009 season. This comes as a shock to just about everyone on the planet, including Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson, who were considered to be the primary contenders for the job. “I’m excited about it, and I’m ready for it,” Rogers said. “You don’t get a bigger stage than this, and lord knows I need a big *ss stage.” Mangini’s decision came three days after Quinn and Anderson threw multiple interceptions to rookie receivers in minicamp. “I feel that Brady and Derek are in a bit of a slump,” Mangini said. “We had to make a decision on who might give us the best chance to win games. We think that the answer is our 350 pound lineman.” No word yet on who will be Rogers’ backup, but Mangini would not rule out Alex Mack, who could run the offense more efficiently by hiking the ball to himself.
