The only reason I know this whole competition thing is done is that even when Baker has a so-so/bad day Darnold finds a way to have his “Hold my beer” moment. 

The QB competition has been over since Baker was announced starter for preseason game 1. You can tell by today's snap count, this is no longer a competition. Sam is the backup QB.

We're all over it. I'm cool with Darnold as the backup or getting rid of him. Whatever. This season hinges on Baker, seriously.

Give him a chance to cook. If he fails, it's on to Corral and/or 2023 anyway.

That's kind of the thing though.

The competition really may be over (or at least should be) but practice reps are still being devoted to it.

It's kinda stupid.

It was never a QB competition.

Today's practice was not indicative of that though. Mac and Baker pretty had the same reps, and the same with Sam and Hoyer. Zappe/PJ/Corral were limited today. 

Baker was treated like the #1 today, reps included.

As fans, we should come away feeling good on today's practice. We had a dawg in us, and we were able to put more points on the board, and created way more turnovers. Exactly what the team has been stating they wanted to accomplish this offseason.
