Preach. Why tf are you burning a roster spot on him? Should have found someone else weeks ago when Sam first got hurt.

Man this offense is excruciating PJ has been around for three years now. If you always knew he was going to be this limited if he ever came in there's zero purpose in giving him a roster spot in the first place. Find a backup that at least gives you a chance of making something happen further down the field.

Boost that value McCaffrey

In what world is that not a popular choice? Who would complain with Ryans?

You’re overthinking this a ton

I definitely understand the allure of getting a flashy, up-and-coming coordinator and I'd love if we went that route if Rhule doesn't right this ship. But I really don'y think Dan Quinn would be the most disastrous hire. I guarantee you the perception around him would be entirely different if they had closed the deal on SB51. Even his "down" seasons, they were 7-9 both times - hardly a catastrophe. I wouldn't be throwing parades in the streets if he were the guy, but with the right coordinators I think you could do far worse. Essentially I guarantee you at least a few of these coordinators you all are swooning over wouldn't do as well as Quinn. Hell I bet the Broncos are currently wishing they had chosen Quinn over the flashy young coordinator who looks a disaster so far. I also totally understand the shoot for the stars mentality, roll the dice you find the next elite mind even if the chances are small. Just a different perspective.

It's a massive problem and looks like arguably the league's worst right now. It was fun to get a win today but nothing about today's win can be relied upon to replicate. We scored on a fumble recovery, they missed two FG's, we had a deflection INT, etc. Very rarely will you beat anyone in this league with offensive displays as bad as we saw this afternoon. I was at the game and I sit high, one perk of being at the games is you can really get a view of the entire field and every play as it's developing. Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems like no one is getting open. We know we have receivers that are at least capable, so I'm chalking it up to a schematic issue currently. It's easy to cast blame on Mayfield, and he missed some early throws again, but on a lot of these plays I was struggling to find where he was supposed to go with the ball. Even the Saints occasionally would dial up a play that was basically an easy pitch and catch toss for Jameis for 6-7 yards. We don't even have that in our bag, everything seems like a chore when it comes to moving the ball through the air. If they don't figure it out quick I struggle to see how we win more than 3 games.

But the roster is atrocious, which is on him

Right now. I think we need an entire house cleaning. Wouldn’t even hate promoting Dan Morgan to give us some stability there and allow him to start trading a lot of our young players for picks, get a head start on the rebuild

He’s had like two good games his whole career. He’s a bust and is stratospheres away from earning a second contract. I’d trade him for a fourth tomorrow

My brother in Christ

I would love to see CJ have a great season. That’s one move I still kind of defend, as he was clearly better than any prospect you’re finding in round 3. Would love to see him put it all together

Lol the DT we took seventh OVERALL getting worked by a rookie from the FCS. No surprises there!

There’s clearly no developmental plan in place for Corral and it’s infuriating And as I mentioned in another thread, Bakers opening drive only stalled because of a snap mishap and a miscommunication on a route with a WR. Which makes sense because he’s still only been with these dudes for a few weeks. And it is maddening we’re still splitting reps when it’s obvious Baker needs as much work with the 1’s as possible to work those kinks out before CLE

It has been this way for months/years iirc

The jerseys we wear the most, coincidentally, are the most difficult to buy. On the online team store they only sell white CMCs and Chinn's. I mean, I'm not opposed to maybe buying one of those but there are other players I'd rather have. You can't even customize a white jersey. Anyone know the reasoning behind this? As a PSL owner, I really want a white jersey especially with so many of our home games front loaded this year.

I will bet anyone on here $100 that Baker Mayfield is the starting QB Week 1. Is he the franchise savior? No. Is he far and away the best option we have right now? Yes.

Could definitely be a tactic to get us to give up more than we need to.

They’re probably fine to hold him into the preseason or even regular season and wait for someone to get hurt

People are insane thinking it’s the same as Sam. Sam is easily the worst starting QB in the NFL and there are probably nearly 10 teams Baker could start on. He’s not a franchise savior but he’s good enough to keep the team competitive which is huge for some of our young players.

They can easily throw this right back at us. They can tell us if we truly want to roll with Sam instead of forking over an extra $4m, to go right ahead

This is just getting annoying. I just can’t imagine how minuscule the details they’re discussing must be. Ready for some clarity on this one way or another.

He would have to really perform, like basically get the team into the playoffs perform. And look if you extend him for 2-3 more years and continue building the roster you could do that in a financially responsive manner. The fact of the matter is there will always be a contingent of teams that don’t have a quarterback as good as Baker Mayfield. And I get that he seems douchy and arrogant but honestly this team has been so soft the past few seasons I’d almost welcome someone that cares too much.

Even if that happens it changes basically nothing about the future. Baker becomes an FA, as does Sam and you reevaluate. That’s why I don’t mind this it carries basically zero future risk.

I mean I’m expecting the draft capital here is no more than a fifth. There’s still value in those but obviously more times than not those players don’t make it five years in the league. It’s not the same as trading for Darnold because Baker has actually proven he is an NFL starting QB unlike Sam ever has. I agree he seems like a douche but honestly this team was so fuging soft last year maybe we could use some of this energy. Corral was the 94th pick. If he were anywhere near being ready to play he would have gone much sooner
