There has never been any actual source to that and we just traded for him and he took a pay cut to come here.

What would your move have been? I believe they plan on Corral being ready after this season if Baker isn't it. There is literally no loss.

So basically college football drama. Gotcha. I dont care at all about that.

If we didnt get better then what is the problem?

If hes average then hes gone I'd guess. We didnt have a top pick in the draft last year. I'm not sure why so many people are acting like we were guaranteed a top 3 pick in the draft or something when our roster is better than last year.

He plays really well, hes the potential long term qb. He plays bad, he walks at the end the year and Matt got to not be rushed and learn the playbook and he will be ready step in. Either of those are potential long term plans. Those are pretty much the only two scenarios and I don't see either being especially bad.

If he plays great and you arent sure about what to do then you franchise him and make him do it again. If hes great two years then your question is kind of answered. If hes mediocre hes gone or cheap.

Look at that, a situation where we dont totally disagree for once. Is the huddle healing?

I thought that's what Corral was for? You've been arguing this whole time that Corral should be starting immediately but now you say if Baker plays bad this season we are without options. It can only really be one or the other.

I would rather just win.

I havent really seen this whiny crybaby coward stuff everyone repeats all the time. I'm not sure what I missed besides him being mad when the team was saying they wanted an adult qb while trying to trade everything for Watson. What else is there? I know he had a couple problems in college but I'm not sure what I've missed in his nfl times.

We werent top 3 last year and our roster has improved a lot overall since then.

I dont get the people who are against winning because they want Rhule gone. I would much rather win. He is gaining experience and learning from it. Why would you want to lose to get rid of someone instead of them improving and winning. Just to be right it feels like.

I'm not sure what it prolongs. They are both gone after this season if Baker isnt good.

I really dont see a negative here. I dont love Baker but hes fairly young and we are getting him cheap and for a conditional 5th rounder. If he sucks he is for sure gone after this season and he gave our rookie qb who needs time, the time he needs. The worst case scenario I guess if you're just looking for one its he plays great and then we have to decide what to do after this season, but if the worst case scenario is we have a 27 year old qb who plays great then I will take that worst case every time.

It's a conditional 2024 5th

Not as a third round rookie you dont. As a third round rookie coming out of a gimmick offense you need all the mental reps and time with the playbook you can get before you're thrown out there.

There is always going to be a difference in a third rounder and a top 5 overall player. Some gems definitely show up but you take Ikem even if BC played solid at lt all last season.

What would you rather them do?

Lots of qbs sit and learn their first season. Especially mid round picks. If he doesnt learn anything all season because he is hypothetically getting less reps then hes probably not going to be the answer anyways.

What would your plan be? Throwing in Matt before hes ready just because you want him to be is the definition of throwing poo at the wall.

We werent going to be in the running for a top 3 pick regardless of what sports illustrated or whoever said. Our roster is improved fairly drastically since last year and we were barely in the top 10 then.

People are forgetting the fact that Matt said himself hes got to get the mental aspect of it all down before he even feels ready himself. Everyone keeps wanting to throw him out there anyways expecting miracles. Fans need to be patient and let him learn.

I think once Baker clearly beats Darnold then Matt and Darnold will probably get equal reps if not Matt getting more. This is a season to groom Matt and let him learn the playbook and the vocabulary and go through mental reps and if he continues to improve and develop their hope is for him to step into the starting qb spot next season. Thats my take anyways.

I mentioned part of his interview..
