"The ''Brady'' chants started in the second quarter, just after Browns rookie receiver Brian Robiskie turned inside and quarterback Derek Anderson threw outside, much to the delight of Green Bay Packers cornerback Charles Woodson, who intercepted the pass.

But Browns coach Eric Mangini refused to yank Anderson in the 31-3 loss Sunday to the Packers, and the disappointed crowd in Cleveland Browns Stadium gave up the Brady Quinn quest and went home early.

As dismal as Anderson's numbers were for the third consecutive week, Mangini said Monday that he was sticking with Anderson for the game Sunday against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field.

''I think he gives us the best chance right now to move the ball,'' Mangini said. ''I know his numbers have not been impressive, but I don't think he's been alone in producing those numbers. There's been a significant amount of drops, there's been times where we've had chances and there's been some breakdowns in protection.

''But I've also seen him complete some balls that were well thrown and well caught. The throw to [tight end Michael] Gaines, good throw, good catch, a place where only he could get it, there's been a lot of those. There was a deep ball to Mohamed [Massaquoi] just out of his reach on their sideline. I've seen him complete those plays not just in games, but also in practice.''

Mangini said his reluctance to go back to Quinn has nothing to do with the $11 million in escalators Quinn will receive if he plays 70 percent of the snaps this season.

''Nothing, zero, nothing to do with it,'' Mangini said.

There is still $5.9 million in bonus money available for Quinn if he's around in 2010, but this is the watermark for Quinn and the $11 million. Providing there are no more overtimes the rest of the season, he needs to play in at least 8.8 games and there are nine remaining. He could take over at halftime against the Bears and not reach 70 percent."
