End of *next month. 

But point still stands. This might be the most click bait thread of all time. And Zod is laughing at every single person posting in here, including me.

They know it's Rhule pushing for this but the internal conflict is off the charts. Can't criticize Matt Rhule

It came out that that wasnt the case just a few days.  More of that confirmation bias.  You hate Rhule so it's obviously him that wants to make the move that you dont like.

You do realize that the emoji means sarcasm? 

Still, notwithstanding the higher-ups not pulling the plug (which could very much be customary in the NFL), at the end of the day, Baker can't blame anyone but himself. 

Yes. Hence the reply.

I mean, it's fun to say that but thr coschbis responsible for who plays. If you are hurting the team because of health, the plug needs to be pulled.

Cam's situation was insanely obvious to everyone. EVERYONE. Yet no change was made. At best Ron offered up, "Well he said he was okay." So does that mean you don't have to use your brain or eyes anymore?

Same with Baker. if he is struggling that badly with an injury, why do you allow him to drag the team down?

Sounds to me like Tepper is still meddling in this qb search.  They all can...

Very possible too.

I think the owner meddling directly in personnel would be a five alarm fire. Especially this owner.

The only thing we know are unfounded rumors nobody knows who is truly pulling the strings still we only assume Rhule has ceded some authority to Fitterer. But no I do not hate Rhule as much as you want to pigeonhole that narrative because you and your pal can't handle differing views.

This franchise really has no vision, or actual plan, does it? Just a bunch of random moves cobbled together.

Yeah, we don't actually know what the situation is. Perhaps Rhule lost some power or perhaps not.

I really feel like people need to be reminded that Corrall is a 3rd round rookie from an RPO, 1 read offense if I remember correctly.  He probably won't be ready to start, so if we can get Baker cheap why not? Is he worse then Darnold? The same? Slightly better? As long as its cheap we aren't any WORSE off so. He at least has some grit unlike Darnold. 

Most importantly for the sake of starting in the NFL he's from the SEC and he put up some impressive numbers.

The next logical step for a successful SEC QB is to be drafted and start or compete to start immediately. That's what Matt is doing.

This draft was scuttlebutt courtesy of the media and their Pickett/Willis decoy for stupid teams. Corral was QB1 coming into last season.

If he was rated the top college QB coming out, how could you NOT put that talent ahead of statistically the worst QB in the NFL?

You can't. They need to put some sugar on Matt Corrals contract and LET'S GO.

Even then how does this improve your team long term?  What exactly does this do in regards to building your team?

You go from an unplayable quarterback to a league average one. Ideally, he can be a formidable bridge QB ala Alex Smith who’s good enough to allow you to be decently competitive while you wait to make a move and pounce for a legitimate franchise guy.

A healthy Baker improves this team. 100% for this as long no first round picks are involved.

There was article simply saying he was warming to the idea of having to play Sam.  Something that got pushed into the media as they are still clearly negotiating w/ Cleveland. 

Who wants Baker and who doesn't then?  Because all the reporting says it is a divide house at the top.   It only makes sense it's Rhule that wants Baker (Baker increases the odds to win in 2022).....and Rhule's job is the most depedent on wins in 2022 vs Fitt.
