I don't know why they even bother with a survey. It will go to the highest bidder pending it's just not something that the NFL as a whole would be against.

I mean, the Staples Center is now Crypto.com Arena. Think that was close to a billion dollar deal. David Tepper would likely name us the Adult Depends Diaper Stadium if the deal netted him some cash.

Somewhere around 5 to 7 wins. Basically the same thing that could of happened the last 2 years if a random play had bounced our way. We could of randomly gotten to 7 those years two with a lucky break. Schedule is hard. Ton of new pieces on O from QB, to OL, to OC. Its certain to have some rough spells trying to figure it out. And I think the run D is going to really struggle. And that will in the end weaken the pass D as they will likely have to overcompensate to deal with the run.

everything there is an unknown though in the grand scheme of things. Can't really grade Fitt on any of that yet.

QB/OL/DL. That's how I think a personnel guy should be largely evaluated. If you can get talent there, you will win in the NFL with even an average coach. I'd still give Fitt an incomplete at this point.

lol, but I would think Baker is actually cool w/ 95% of the Browns players. the couple players that don't know him might try to use the comments as fuel. Rest of the team just knows it is Baker being Baker.

lol, yeah, that full quote by Myles Garrett shows how silly this whole thread is. Whether Baker did or didn't say it, it doesn't actually mean anything. Garrett has spent years listening to Baker and that's just Baker. Garrett might be extra amped up. That cuts both ways sometimes. But it won't have anything to do with what that reporter claims Baker said. It will just be he gets to finally give it ago against someone he has always been forced to be hands off with that talks poo.

“If Jimmy Clausen is not a successful quarterback in the NFL, I’m done. That’s it. I’m out.” - Mel Kiper Jr

I don’t think he has that much to do with Chubba at all. Think it has to do with how small we are at WR and them not trusting TMJ to be ready for real reps. He is the big congested red zone type guy I guess (which we don’t have at all, not even a TE) and run blocker at WR. Which Robbie is neither and TMJ a was suppose to be more of than Robbie offered IMO. You don’t want the new guy pass protecting on 3rd down. And he doesn’t know the playbook. CMC is the guy you want on 3rd down IMO. If you were going to spell CMC it should be on early run downs and that is the one thing Hubbard is somewhat respectable at and Foreman can do.

Pretty much. The muffed punt turnover is brutal though

I liked they kept Roberts on the initial roster. Shi didn't run punts in college and only logged in 3 returns in the preseason. I think he can be the guy. But I'd probably like Roberts out there early on. Especially bigger pressure moments to field them to start the season. PR is just a weird gig.

I think a better wording would be he doesn't like big personalities. And I don't think that really is that odd big picture in world of coaching. but coaching in the NFL I think largely means you need a HC who can effectively manage that type of player. And there clearly is a limit on how many you can have around. Coaches love a vocal leader like a Jordan Gross. I mean, Gross would be a textbook ideal player. Cam? 89? Those are big personalities. You can't have too many of them on a team. And frankly, they do cause extra headaches. But elite and special teams often find a way to manage those types. I don't equate Baker to as big of a personality as those 2 but he trends more that way than really anyone else Rhule has seen. I really don't count Cam coming in a for a couple games last season.

I mean, I don't think it matters. It's not like players don't talk poo on the field every single Sunday, of every week, of every season.

Daniel Jones IMO has to be the odds on favorite to be the next Panther QB if Rhule is still employed here.

1. Riverboat Ron 2. Desperate John Fox 3. John Fox 4. Ron Rivera 5. Dom Capers 6. Matt Rhule 7. George Siefert

lol. I fixed it.

I think Fox and Rivera were about the same. Solid coaches. Who both had stretches of really solid coaching specifically in seasons were things started to go south or were forced to dig out of holes they basically put themselves in.

people straight disrespecting Deebo Samuel lol. like someone taking Chubba from us and claiming he could be there CMC.

I haven't either. There were some "fan" twitter accounts claiming stuff last night but I haven't seen anyone legit report it.

I referenced that yesterday. The in on every deal mantra. I mean, clearly you wouldn’t want to be in on every deal. That becomes foolish at a point.

What did we give up for the jag that played for the jags? this in on every deal mantra clearly has cons to it. we end up being the only folks at the table with no one stop us.

The Rhule Panthers really love collecting the unwanted from the Jets, Jags, etc. Struggles to get open. Slow. Watched a lot being a Trevor stan

It was an even heavier pass ratio vs Buff than his normal in season play calling. That’s your extra data point.

I would think McAdoo's track record as a playcaller would be more relevant than his preseason pass ratio. Given there is no game planning and the emphasis in preseason is about working specific scenarios, situations, etc. And his ratio as a playcaller is easy to find. You were the one hypothesizing about what McAdoo might do this season in terms of pass ratio. Based off history, it says we are going to pass slightly more. vs Buffalo we logged officially 25 rush attempts and had 36 pass attempts. So that trends an even higher pass ratio than McAdoo is known for. So again, seems relevant if you want to talk about our O.....what Rhule says he wants to be seems like a pretty relevant topic to reference.

Matt Rhule's new OC calls a higher % of pass plays than Matt Rhule's old OC. it's just example 32493 of Matt Rhule's rhetoric always being nonsense. What Matt Rhule has been and is to date remains relevant in Matt Rhule discussions. There is no 7 year plan, there is no vision and there is no identity. Every year he is just throwing junk at the wall.
