changed title. locked thread. walked away.

i was wondering how long it took for someone to add him.

It's a good thing we're so stacked at LB.

knock it off, @SizzleBuzz

which is kind of a big deal...and why we deserve the 31st spot. at least until we start winning more than 3 games at the beginning of the season.

i'm not a baker fanboy. that being said and having watched those ugly "highlights" ...what an awful take. Baker's arm isn't a problem and Darnold over Baker??????

"why does life have to change??????"

Seattle got lucky. Their strategy was just keep collecting as much poo as possible and slinging it at the wall to see if something sticks. copying that method is like continually drafting QBs in the 6th round because one of them might turn into brady. Luck is not a strategy.

Don't matter how you spin it or what math you make up, we have made bad decisions at QB so far. Jury is out on Corrall and I guess Baker, but we've been grasping at straws trying to hang onto the cliff.

Yeah....I see stuff and it makes me think this guy could be legit, but I've had my hopes up before. I've never been excited about him before and I don't want to let myself get excited just because he's a panther now. I've tried convincing myself in the past that maybe we've stumbled on something good, but it never pans out (not talking Cam because I knew he was legit when I saw him play the Iron Bowl in college...I didn't have to convince myself of anything watching him play. He did it for me.). I just have to see it. I won't believe it until he gives me something as a panther to believe in.

what watson should have done right away.

would rather not have any of them

But it will be different here because ....

the first three are the easiest. from there it's just a meat grinder...i mean with the exception of the falcons but i think we'll probably split with them.

not seeing that many wins with or without CMC. he bumps us up to maybe 6 wins. the schedule is brutal and we still probably have rhule managing the games.

I would like a true competition, but it's baker's job to lose

You said it and you're thinking the right direction. Corrall is the guy.

so are they saying anything? can't watch.

(not yet)

i'm not in the slightest worried about Corrall's mental toughness or it being challenged. he faced his issues head on, early on, and got a handle on it. like @top dawgsaid, he seems to be in a good place and he was a kid drinking and partying too much...that doesn't mean he was an alcoholic but it does mean he thinks it was enough to potentially be a problem/distraction that could interfere with football and he had the maturity to make the choice to get that part of his life under control before it got out of control. it takes maturity to get your life under control and get your priorities straight. that's what he did. more than that, it appears that he uses what he learned to help out teammates who might have similar issues. i think both baker and darnold have issues they haven't been able to deal with or grow from/grow out of. i don't know what darnold needs (maybe a psychic lol), but darnold just seems to be one of those guys who wants the respect of a grownup but keeps getting sucked back into teen issues/drama...a lot of petty stuff.

Calling it right now, the rookie is gonna be the most mature of the bunch.

the stud 4x first team all-pro punter we managed to snag off FA this year.

nice, but the writer is a OU homer.
