Long term I think the jury still isn't in on the Quinn/Hillis trade. Short term the Browns got the better end of the deal. But given the right coaching and the right teammates and a chance Brady Quinn might still flourish. Keep in mind Brett Favre started his career in Atlanta and didn't really flourish until Mike Holmgren came along, and brought him to Green Bay. I don't know that Quinn will be the next Favre (that's being generously optimistic) but I do think he has the potential to be far better than he ever was in Cleveland. Whether or not he ever lives up to that potential remains to be seen. In the mean time, I'm loving Hillis on the Browns.

Glad they won. I've got Foster on my fantasy team.
He and the Browns Peyton Hillis did well for me yesterday... Derek Anderson not so much (losing to the Chagers 41-10, OUCH!)
Why did Josh McDaniels chase Hillis out of Denver? Makes no sense.
Now the Broncos can't run the ball if their lives depended on it.
Nice win for the Browns.

Well, I hope Quinn works out well for the Broncos, but with Orton and Tebow around, I'm not sure he'll get the chance.
Besides being a hard runner, Hillis seems to have a certain charm to him. They really liked him in Arkansas, and we really liked him in Denver.
