The thread obviously grabbed your attention enough for you to not only reply but also participate in the poll you clown  😂

Baker has been pretty disappointing and less than 50 yards in a half speaks for itself but he doesn't throw those absolutely backbreaking and morale destroying interceptions into triple and quadruple coverage from a clean pocket like you're favorite NFL player. You should probably take it easy calling others morons and clowns all the time considering your taste in NFL quarterbacks.

Baker has protected the ball. That’s an automatic start over darnold.

 

also, he led four scoring drives last week. Darnold did that total in his last 4 games. 

Depends on the way you look at it.  If you compare 2021 Darnold Weeks 1-3 vs. 2022 Baker Weeks 1-3, Darnold was better and it's not even close.  The problem is that Darnold fell off a cliff shortly after, presumably in part as teams adjusted to his tape.  We really can't afford for Baker to get any worse, we have to hope he inversely improves significantly as the season goes on where Darnold crumbled. 

I do think Baker has the mental fortitude to overcome early struggles and keep his poise, whereas Darnold just seemed to too often go into panic mode and snowball if things went wrong.

Darnold struggled because too much pressure was put on him once CMC went down to go along with a terrible oline. Losing CMC and Arnold at the same time  sabotaged the offense because Darnold had built so much rapport with them during training camp, then losing them at the same time, it was too much to handle. The Offensive Line also couldnt handle it. YOu literally had 3rd stringers playing Left Tackle.. Too much to overcome for a QB in a new system.

 

This Offensive Line is much better. I expect Sam to do very well in this offense.

I cant believe I agreed with an entire post of yours.... Fire. 

It must be Sam himself or maybe his mother.

He is clearly a troll account. Pay him no attention…

    • They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.
    • And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
