Rookie focus: QB Colt McCoy looks to turn around Browns
"One of the first things we did with the Browns was to go to Canton and see the Hall of Fame. If that could be the way I'm remembered, it would be the perfect ending." [USA Today]
No controversy for QB as McCoy poised to start
''I'm here for whatever they ask me to do. Again, that's a coaches' decision,'' McCoy said of a possible third consecutive start. ''I know Jake and Seneca aren't practicing today, and I treat it the same way I have the last several weeks — to prepare like I'm the starter every time. Whether it ends that way or not, I'm going to be prepared to play.'' [Akron Beacon Journal]
More quotes from Mangini
"A lot of young guys when they go in, there's real jitters, but Colt, with that role, just seemed at home: broke down the teams, spoke to the team the night before he started. It was natural; none of it was forced and that is one of the most positive things I've seen." [Boston Globe]
I'm getting excited. All my friends who are Browns fans are really feeling good about this kid. The morale of the fan base is really high again and times are not rotten as they were when this season started. More on this as we build to the moment which is kickoff at Sunday at 1:00 PM ET.
