The Cleveland Plain Dealer is reporting the Derek Anderson will replace Brady Quinn as the Browns QB this Sunday against the 3-0 Bengals:
Mangini said "giving Derek the opportunity is something I think will help us offensively.'' He said Anderson's performance on third down Sunday in Baltimore -- including 3-of-4 on a field goal drive -- helped him clinch the job. He said he needs to improve on throwing interceptions, after throwing three in Baltimore.
He also said he expects Quinn to continue to work hard. "I'm not saying it's all Brady,'' said Mangini. "Derek did some things that were positive and that's what it's based on.''
Of course, the headline is tounge in cheek: Quinn will most certainly get another chance under center. And it'll probably be sooner rather than later if Anderson continues to average an interception every six attempts.
Quinn's numbers as the starter this season: 62.9 rating, 60.8 completion percentage, 5.4 yards/attempt, one TD, three INTs.

Alright, send the kid over to the Ravens and we’ll get him some wins and return him a better man. It’s the least we can do.
