Makes you wonder if we should cut PJ and Sam.  A lot of teams are only carrying two QBs and we currently have 4 (yeah I know it's early).  I have a feeling we are rolling with 3 (Baker, Sam, Matt), but why is PJ still on our roster getting playing time?  Are other teams currently rolling 4 deep? 

I have no clue what the plan is for PJ or Sam.. But I'm also not disparaged enough to care this early in the process... I also Trust "Mcadoo" enough that I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt on "his" process... Plus we are in week 2.5 of Hopefully a long career for Corral and I listen to the analysts and the league and understood this could be a longer process to develop him and that's okay for a 3rd round pick..

I know, but my fear is that by missing the time Rhule will default to Elflein as having won the competition by availability during preseason alone. 😞

Even if .. Eflin has a history of injuries so he probably won't last and Bozeman can step in then...

There are currently 12 teams carrying 4 QBs are their rosters: CAR, SF, NYJ, CIN, PIT, IND, KC, LV, DAL, PHI, NO, TB,

said 4, should have been 12. I had 4 on the brain.

Ha.

And when the seasons starts and all the bipolar knee jerk threads begin because you guys are forced to believe no one else wanted Baker for 5 mil for a fuging reason, and can stop ignoring the fact this is the THIRD reject failure Rhule has conjured up…I will be relaxing sipping my beer because I’m not an idiot.

This franchise has shown zero competence, continues to take short cuts and cheats codes that don’t fuging work while screwing us out of a top pick and until that happens and there is a obvious qb to be excited about, we will continue to suck.

Black helmets are going to be exciting I’ll give this season that.

But by all means continuing the hope train…maybe we can talk about the 4th qb reject coming in next year when we are almost half way through Rhule’s/Jayzs 7 year process lol.

Baker is 3 wins better than Darnold MAX. fuging sucks because 2023 qb draft class looking nice. We will have 12-14 pick.

3 more wins would make a 60% increase in win total. I love when people say Baker is only slightly better than Darnold then complain he is going to ruin our draft position..  

No one thinks we are a Super Bowl threat or that Baker will become the next Tom Brady. Sneaking into the playoffs as a wildcard would be the absolute ceiling IMO. I can’t speak for everyone, but I’m excited about even average QB play and hopefully watching a more competitive team than last year. Our secondary looks great, QB and OL have been significantly upgraded. After watching that sad excuse of an offense last year, I’ll take an average one this year.

He’s making 18 million…

You know who else is making the exact same amount? Baker Mayfield. You know, the guy who made such a huge stink about his team trying to replace him that they ended up trading him for pennies even though a massive suspension was inevitably coming for Watson. How much better off would Cleveland be with Baker starting the first 11 games instead of Jacoby Brissett? Instead they save about $7 million and get a day 3 pick but most likely throw their 2022 season down the drain.

This isn't a criticism of Baker so much as a defense of Darnold. Honestly, I've been impressed at how maturely he's handled the whole situation. You can hate him as a qb and at least acknowledge that.

Oh and to @Mr. Scot trying not to personally attack you.. But just because you're condescending and hoiler then thoe persona doesn't mean I can't disagree with your opinions or method to getting there..

At no point did I say you couldn't post your opinion or your wasting ppl time post what you think..

But this is a football forum you can post and be challenged on your opinion as well.. Especially with calling ppl stupid or dumb for challenging your all mighty word ..lol

Directly above that...

Dumb argument because again you refuse to add context..

The rest of the post had a pretty condescending tone as well.

Also, from earlier...

And then the comeback is 

"YOU MUST BE A RHULE FAN" BECAUSE YOU DISAGREE WITH MY OPINION " DUH DUH DUH!@

Instead of backing your poo up with actually facts and valid points...

Lmao

So...yeah 😕

This is what the complaint was about, and I'm having to engage myself to highlight it.

Conversations, and even disagreement, with intelligent people can be civil and enjoyable.

This? Not so much.

    • We don't need to know what % was his fault last year because it was all bad enough to know to not sign up for more of it. Look at the stuff he was directly responsible for being the point man on, the pro-personnel, and the stuff he was involved in should tell you enough. If you have to discount it to make it look better than you already knew the answer. It's just making excuses for all of those people. Hoping something changes while discounting the work they already done here has proven to be a losing strategy every time so far. Maximus Copius Bulshitetus i think is the Latin name for that phenonium. 
    • 1) Signed 2 high profile guards to big contracts. Did we need guards? Yes. But there's a reason you draft guards and pay tackles. It's easier to find solid guards in the draft. Now we have the most expensive line in the league and still can't get 100 yards passing before halftime.  2) Traded up to get a RB when we didn't really need one. Chuba is one of the better RBs in the league right now and while it is a contract year, we had a crap ton of holes all over. Brooks was a luxury pick we didn't have the luxury to make. 3)Spending a small fortune to build a supporting cast for BY. Bryce didn't even put the work in himself during the offseason by his own admission. We didn't need to build an offense specifically for BY. We brought in DJ and drafted XL. These guys need a QB with a live arm. That's not BY. Speed kills but not when your QB can't legitimately make an accurate, deep ball strike without putting a ton of air under it and floating it.  4. Not looking for a true center. There were several available and it's been a position of need for years. We could have had our choice but we rolled with Corbitt, who did look good at the spot, but had an injury bug that struck again this year.  5) He didn't bring in any serious competition for Bryce. Now you can say that BY needs time to develop and we needed to show we had faith in him, blah blah blah. But the simple matter of fact is Bryce looked like a PS QB last year, Andy has one foot in the QB grave, and there was never an attempt to actually compete for the job. If he genuinely believed that BY was going to magically make it all come together watching YT and chillin for 4 months to unplug, then there's nothing else that needs to be said.  The goal of every GM should be to build a winning team. Players are commodities and loyalty leads you to an early walk out the door. We've tried to build a system to work around the most limited QB in NFL history. 60 years of history should have told him it was never going to work. And benching BY after 2 games is the real truth, he never should have been starting anyway. And either Dan should have known that as the great MLB that he was after watching BY's game tape, or someone else is making the call and Dan is just rubberstamping that decision.  Either way, doesn't matter. We're screwed because we've devoted 2 years of resources to build around a player that didn't put in the work in the off season after one of the worst NFL QB seasons ever. 
    • Something I find interesting is that you are more likely to find successful players as UDFA's than you are to find them with a single pick in any round past 3.  Those 3rd round compensatory choices?  Largely worthless.  Yes, I get it, there are a lot more UDFA's than there are drafted players in later rounds.  Basically, if you're fishing for starters you are simply not going to find anything in Rounds 4 - 7 with any regularity.
