More for me. I had an interest of 2 and now it is a solid 5. 

Similar. Not jumping for joy by any means but it adds an interesting element.

I suspect we will see more national spotlight because of Mayfield being here too. That's going to be an interesting thing to watch develop.

I, for one, am glad there will be increased scrutiny on our situation.

I don't know if my expectations are higher, but it's probably fair to say things are more interesting now.

Yeah, I framed the question that way intentionally. 

That was basically what I wanted after the draft and free agency. Just something to make me interested in even watching in 2022.

I think Baker makes that almost a definite since we couldn't count on seeing Corral.

Probably the best perspective on the situation.

I was very clear about my view on that prior to the trade. With Baker or Jimmy G, there is at least something to WATCH. With the Darnold/Corral situation, there is a high likelihood of seeing more of Darnold than any of us ever wants to. IMO, that isn't anything that is worth watching. Saw that story last season. No reason to watch the redux. 

So, even though I think Rhule is an idiot that will have anothet losing season, a new starting QB gives me a reason to watch. Especially one with the insane talent level Mayfield has. Doesn't even have to succeed. I will watch because it's interesting. 

Low bar, perhaps but that's where I am.

Until Tepper, I never missed a game.  The last time I cheered was Cam’s TD pass in AZ.  I’m at the lowest point of my fandom since inception.  
 

An average QB you say?

    • We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.
    • I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning. 
    • He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
