Couch released by the Jacksonville Jaguars today

I predicted as much...

Bid to become their 3rd string QB fails.

Re: Couch released by the Jacksonville Jaguars today

Way to screw up a young QB Cleveland . How not to develop a QB written by the Cleveland Browns.

I still believe he could have been a good QB but the Browns never realized that a qb can't throw from his backside.

Re: Couch released by the Jacksonville Jaguars today

That's the real thing there, without an O-Line doesn't matter how much talent a QB has it's tough for him to excel when he's fighting for his life.

2 shoulder surgeries make it tough for a QB to come back to form.

I think it depends on the quarterback personally. Vince Young and Michael Vick may have more success with a shabby offensive line, while Peyton Manning would have a career similar to Tim Couch if he had the Browns O-Line while Couch was there.

Couch really was doomed from the get-go. He was going to an expansion franchise as a rookie, which generally does not work well. Not to mention he didn't have that great of a field awareness compared to a Peyton Manning or Tom Brady.

Re: Couch released by the Jacksonville Jaguars today

Let's not overlook the fact that he wasn't very good. Apparently still isn't.

Re: Couch released by the Jacksonville Jaguars today

Well, at least there's some good news in the Tim Couch story--he's not playing for the Browns this year. :ughmamoru
