“Most improved player on the roster this year”

[ncfan]

Those were the words from Kevin Donley (former Panther OL and current sideline reporter) when talking about Brady Christensen.  Just now on Kyle Bailey’s afternoon show on WFNZ.

Also seems to really like Ikem.  Really glowed talking about Ikem and Christensen lined up beside each other at LT and LG.

 

 

 

 

- lastly was watching ESPN this afternoon.  And one of their shows was really digging into the Bears awful OL.  Then they showed a stat from last year.  And Browns OL last year gave up the 2nd or 3rd highest pressure pct only ahead of the Bears last year (yes even worst than our statistically).  So much for the idea that the Browns had this superstar team and Baker held them back last year.  Dude set rookie records year 1, top 10 QB year 2, hurt playing on an overrated roster year 3.

You forgot Baker’s 2nd season but yeah point still stands for last year

This is great to hear.  If LT and LG are shored up, it just makes things very smooth for everyone whether we have to rebuild, retool, or continue whatever we're doing with Rhule.

The one big IF is if Baker clicks, we're suddenly a head coach and 2 playmakers (Offensive skill & DL) away from contending.

We're stepping close to being respectable again.

Yeah if we can get some protection on the blind side any QB back there will have an easier season....

Minus the Carr and Darnolds of the world.  There's certain ones that are official lost causes.

Agreed. They would play better with blindside protection, but still not very well…

If all your assumptions pan out I think it’s just DL. We have elite offensive skill weapons. CMC and DJ are as good RB/WR1 combo you’ll find in the NFL and Robbie is a legit 2
