Browns QB Derek Anderson will remain the Browns' starting quarterback, head coach Eric Mangini said Monday. Anderson completed just 12-of-29 passes for 99 yards in a 31-3 loss to Green Bay on Sunday.

"I think DA gives us the best chance to move the ball," Mangini said, according to the Browns' official Twitter feed. "The numbers aren't impressive but he hasn't been alone in producing them."

Anderson, 26, has completed 60-of-137 passes for 605 yards with two TDs and seven interceptions since replacing Brady Quinn in Week Three. He is last in completion percentage (43.8) and QB rating (40.6).

According to The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer, Mangini said that his decision to keep Anderson in the lineup had "nothing" to do with a clause in Quinn's contract triggering a $10.9 million escalator if he plays 70 percent of the offensive snps this season.
