We'd never expect an athlete to say anything but positive things about their game. However, in the case of Brock Osweiler, you might want to get a new line when someone asks why you should be a starting quarterback in the NFL. The Browns QB was faced with that question on Wednesday. His answer was a bit questionable. 

"I think the proof is in the film for the past two years."​ That was Osweiler's defense. 

The film for last year shows 16 interceptions and 15 touchdowns. ​

Oswiler's answer was basically Christmas, New Year's Eve and the Fourth of July rolled into one for Twitter.

Unsolicited advice for Oswiler: Next time, just say, "I have a lot to prove, but I think I can surprise a lot of people." Don't bring up game film in any way, shape or form.
