Have you watched a Rhule press conference yet? They haven’t even started doing any of that. 

I tried, but couldn't.  Too soon.

This is going to be a small gripe, but that camera angle and what it showed was just atrocious. Way more interesting to see what's actually happening instead of Darnold's face, a ball somewhere in the air, and a receiver hitting the ground.

Maybe there will be more coming but the team is not doing themselves any favors with this content nonsense.

NICE catch by TMJ. And Barnes (I think) was draped all over him!

 

That camera man earned his keep on the PGA circuit, hence the angles.

It's a travesty he is being allowed to work with the 3's. He needs to be with the 4's and assisting with the janitorial duties.

He failed on the janitorial duties.  He was fine on the sweeping and mopping, but when it came time to clean the men's room, they asked him to keep people out while the other janitors worked. 

You guessed it: he barely slowed the people down wanting to enter.

Are they really that paranoid about other teams seeing our routes in training camp? It's really dumb, pretty much every team runs the same poo just with different names

This is more important than you realize.  A QB with grit and swag-a fiery competitor-has the power to ignite the offense when things get down.  Sam is so passive and his demeanor did not change when things went south--not sure it did not have a negative impact.

Darnold needs as many 1st and 2nd team reps as possible. After all, he’s basically a rookie.

Yeah Kyle Allen had the team more hyped lol

Seems to match his career to me. Had a good rookie year, had kitchens his second year. Had his best year in 2020 and was injured (and being ran out by his coach) in 2021.

Yeah, I would ignore his 2021 stats altogether, and not as an apologist...  he literally was playing with one shoulder and incredible pain all season, all while, as you said, dealing with coaching and teammate issues.

For all the talk about guys have to earn their spots and the guys from last year starting, there's this:

 

Did he end the season as the #1 LT?

I dont think it's even that.  I think it really is all about Tepper controlling the image/brand and message.

What’s gonna be crazy is Rhule continues to have Darnold and Baker split 1st team reps and then Baker struggles/gets hurt and Darnold obviously fails hard Rhule will get desperate and put Corral in to save his job who got none of those key reps you can just see it

I tore my labrum and had to have the same surgery Baker had and it is INCREDIBLY painful. I've had 3 back surgeries, and the shoulder surgery recovery was by far more painful.

I just wish everyone would stop pretending there is a QB competition.

That's a little unfair.  I really do believe that Baker will get an honest look and evaluation from the coaching staff.

I also had surgery on my right labrum and  pretty sure I’ve retorn it. Some of the worst pain I’ve ever had. I’ve also had a surgery on my ac joint in the same shoulder and my right elbow and compared to this they were nothing. Torn labrums are no joke, pro athlete or not
