I must say, the whole Sam/Baker splitting reps during TC is starting to make sense now.

Baker did legit beat him out in camp, playing against our own defense. Against teams that actually game plan I don't think either guy is going to be in a position to succeed. We'd have average dudes like Cousins/Carr etc looking just as bad

I have to disagree with you there. Granted the calls are not helping, the qb play is 75% of the disfunction with this offense.

I agree on the face value, but it's just too big of a trend under this staff for me. Baker never looked this bad, Sam somehow looked a little better with Jets

Would not surprise me if Rhule didn't start Baker sooner than he wanted to out of pressure from the fanbase more than anything.  It never made sense to me for them to get Baker in the first place.  He wasn't going to change the trajectory of this team this season. 

Baker with McAdoo's offense never made sense. Baker is exactly the type of QB you don't want.

I know we all said how it was all theatre and the QB “competition” was a joke, but IF by some 1 in a billion chance we start Sam and he looks good, maybe the whole QB competition wasn’t theater after all and the coaches knew something we didn’t?! 

Trash take. Don't give this staff credit they're clueless

    • This is factually incorrect. He was a two time Pro Bowler with the Rams and in fact statistically he was better with the Rams in his best season there than he has been with the Lions(could change with this season). Some of his per game stats have creeped into being marginally better with the Lions but there have not been dramatic differences in his play, actually. The biggest reason that McVay and he ended up splitting was McVay didn't think he could win a title with Goff. TBH.....so far he was 100% correct. Stafford almost immediately won them a SB and Goff in a historic run was about 70% of the reason the Lions faltered in the NFC championship game. He missed critical throws all over the first half and throughout the second half that he normally wouldn't. He choked. So, until Goff actually does win a SB...McVay has been right.
    • they have the best defense they've had in a long time...probably the best in the reid/mahommes era.  but i think they are probably the most beatable they've been in a while as well. record doesn't exactly bear that out, but they just don't look as strong on offense as they usually do. lots of reasons for that, like trying to build chemistry with newer receivers, but right now they just aren't as frightening as they typically are. i mean they'll probably win tomorrow, but i don't see them as the strongest team in the AFC right now. 
    • He will likely remain unsigned the remainder of this season(barring someone being in a pure QB panic AND making poor decisions) largely due to the cost. I do think he will get multiple offers to be a backup QB and perhaps a couple to potentially start this offseason.  I will continue to beat the same horse over and over.....he should go to a successful team with an established starter. If I were him, go to somewhere like SF, LAR, etc. Somewhere with a successful QB coach and brilliant offensive mind and ALSO a set situation at QB. Ride the pine and adjust for a year or two. Chill and be around better culture. I would suggest the same for Bryce but he will be limited to wherever we can trade him.
