I smell a conspiracy here; the situation doesn't quite add up. 

Sure, if you watched the Browns vs. Ravens game, you saw the pick-off that led to the game winning touchdown and it looked like Derek Anderson made a horrible decision. 

But, Cleveland was going up against one of the NFL's top defenses and it was Derek's only pick in a game where he throws for two touchdowns while his unreliable receivers dropped several balls.

So, it's Brady Quinn time, who will assuredly grab headlines like "Brady is back" or "the other Brady."  It seems obvious to me that the front office of the Browns wants to have their top draft pick on the field and they don't want to look bad doing it, so they'll put him up against Denver.

This is like a boxing match against a bum that was paid off to make it look good, but ultimately take a dive. Denver combines the leagues 27th pass defense with the 26th ranked run defense. You'll see a lot of Jamal Lewis and low risk game play to ensure that Brady is welcomed into the world like he was at a McCain rally.

This game makes for a free win in Brady's debut and the stage to trade Derek Anderson, save money and move on. 

Now, if poor Brady can't pull this off, it's a huge backfire for the team.  Makes me wonder why they wouldn't have went through the season and dealt Anderson on a better note.

My prediction: Quinn comes off looking so-so, but gets a win and goes into a cold Buffalo where reality freezes in.
