Brady Quinn is Too Muscular To Play QB in the NFL

Despite posting a pathetic 23.5 passer rating in Monday’s 16-0 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, beleaguered Cleveland Browns quarterback Brady Quinn has again been named the starter for this weekend’s game versus the Lions in Detroit.

Quinn, 25, who shattered a startling 36 records when he quarterbacked the Notre Dame Fighting Irish for four years in college, is currently projected to throw a porous two touchdown passes this season in comparison to an unsightly nine interceptions.

More troublesome for Browns fans is the fact that Quinn is presently completing a subpar 54.6 percent of his throws on the gridiron.

Quinn, who was selected by the Browns with the 22nd overall pick in the 2007 NFL draft, inked a five-year contract worth $20.2 million to play for the team he rooted for during his childhood.

Before Quinn was drafted by the Browns, he established the quarterback record for weightlifting at the NFL combine when he benched 225 pounds an astounding 24 times.

This past August, the native of Columbus was featured on the front cover of the magazine Muscle & Fitness.

In the article titled “The NFL’s Hardest Working Quarterback,” Quinn spoke about how he combines strength and agility exercises so that he does not become too bulky to perform under center.

Unfortunately for Quinn, his exhaustive workouts have simply become detrimental to his play and he needs to lessen the amount of time that he spends in the gym lifting heavy amounts of weight.

Over the past 25 years, the six most prolific passers in the NFL are generally considered to be Joe Montana, Dan Marino, John Elway, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Brett Favre.

All of the aforementioned signal-callers have ample strength and they have obviously flourished in the brutal sport of professional football.

However, not one of those six passers was ever excessively built to the degree that Quinn is.

Granted, the 1-8 Browns are a miserable franchise as a whole.

Cleveland Head Coach Eric Mangini is unquestionably one of the worst coaches currently employed in the NFL.

Furthermore, for various reasons, the Browns have been stripped of much of their firepower on offense.

Within one year, the Browns have lost Kellen Winslow II, Braylon Edwards and Donte Stallworth.

Nevertheless, one of the central reasons why Quinn is so anemic on the field is because his accuracy is atrocious.

In order for Quinn to improve his accuracy, he must lose a decent portion of his muscle mass.

In a recent advertisement, Quinn was quoted as saying, “I wasn’t done after benching 225 pounds more times than most linemen during the pre-draft workout.”

Sadly, Quinn will be “done” in the NFL soon if he continues trying to emulate Lou Ferrigno instead of some of the great professional quarterbacks in recent history.
