I'm not a fan of the "tinkering" honestly, but I'll wait and see what happens.
Well, all I can say: itāsĀ time to stop giving Sam and Baker equalĀ reps at this point. Mayfield has acquitted himself nicely so far, in short order, time to move forward and let Sam and CorralĀ startĀ splitting those backupĀ repsĀ up. I get it, competition, now, letās start getting down toĀ business. I gave Sam a really good lookĀ too. Thereās just not anything jumping out asĀ significantly better. Going to be interesting to see how it looks on Friday and Saturday.

Ellis trying to figure out Macadoo's offense.

Itās a minefield of Paul BlartsĀ checking people for cell phones, soĀ I just pretty much gave up on filming anything, andĀ started doodling lol. Honestly, Iām learning more from these practices by just putting the goddamn phone down for periods of time. Turbo tweeting through each rep is just unsustainable for me.

High praise for the O-line
Ā
Itās almost as if they actually signedĀ a couple of rock solid starting caliber players to start on the interior. I know theyāre doing a lot of tinkering at left tackle,Ā but nothing comes close to the messĀ I saw unfolding atĀ camp last year

Great write up @ellis. It will be great to have a QB who is not scared to take his time and take shots down the field.
As much as Iād love to take credit, thatās the work of my friendĀ Ellis Williams.

Iām case youāreĀ interested:Ā Ellis Williams joined us on Fox Sports Upstate today. Great insight. Starts around the 51:00 mark.Ā

Whatās up everybody. Hope yāall haveĀ had a great summer. Billy is on vacation this week, but Iāll be putting out a new podcast each day chronicling that morningās practice session.Ā
Today was fairly general inĀ scope (I was only on site for an hour), but hopefully you can gain some insight from this episode.
More episodes throughout the week. Itās been an interesting group to watchĀ so far.

Remind me, who were 6 and 15?Ā
I'm thinking 6 was Testaverde but I could be wrong.
(probably gonna feel dumb if you answer with a name I should have known)
6 has nothing to do with a Panthers, Iāve just never found it to be a great number for a quarterback. Vinny (a guy I liked, all things considered)Ā was 16.Ā
ĀAgain, none of these are dealbreakers,Ā Iām just enjoying being a part of this chat lol.Ā

Clausen, Weinke and others?
Yeah, I guess. I like 13, but I know a lot of people have superstitions about that number. Jimmy and Chris didnāt do much for their respective numbers, thatās for sure. 19 is just a crappy quarterback number. Unitas was a goatĀ but other than that, itās just a bad aesthetic.
-
Numbers I irrationally donāt likeĀ for QBās:Ā
2, 6, 15, 16, 19.Ā
Frank Reich saves 14 from my sh*tlist.Ā
Again, highly relevant, impactfulĀ peak-July 11 content from me here.Ā

That came fromĀ Ivan The Awesome.
Iāve given credit a couple of times from people who post funny stuff here. Iāve seen a few people talk about it, and it crossed my mind last night, but props to Ivan. Looks like he was on this first.Ā

Whatās up guys. Hope yāall are having a great summer. Billy and I took a few weeks off, butĀ weāre back and running for the ramp up toĀ training camp. Josh Klein stopped by this weekĀ as weĀ sizedĀ up the Baker Mayfield trade.Ā
Enjoy! Camp opens in 18 days.Ā

For whatĀ itās worth, the Browns are in no hurry, nor should they be, do much of anything with Mayfield. Doubt they end up cutting him. Doesnāt sound like a robust market, but it does appear Carolinaās interest is legit, and has been for a while. Hopefully, they donāt outbidĀ themselves for a QB for the third consecutive offseason.

I really doubt Darnold ends up in the deal. Doesn't make sense for the Browns to take him.Ā
Generally, I agree with that. I donāt truly think itās going to work out that way, just throwing out some potential scenarios, if indeed CarolinaĀ wants to try to move him off the roster without eating his (entire)Ā salary.Ā

Paying the same amount I could deal with.
Us paying more of Darnold's salary than Cleveland pays of Mayfield's though would feel like we lost the staring contest.
For what itās worth, I donāt think itās likely Sam gets traded anywhere, but I do think they have some degree of interest in finding a way to unload his cap hit, or at least a portion of it. I also think itās a decent idea to just move ahead with Darnold, Corral, and stay true to the āpatienceā mantra. But, if they want to acquire Baker, while unloading Sam, thereās some complexity to that, and Iām not certain itās all worth itājust fromĀ my view.

I'm not doubting Dunlap still can get it done, my problem is it's a band aid on a gunshot wound. Yes, it will help somewhat in the short term, but what about down the road?Ā This team is in a long term rebuild and these one or two-year deals with FAs isn't going to get it done.Ā Hired mercenaries aren't in the long term interest of the organization.
FYI, I almost stopped in at the Ingles in Powersville to see you last week on the way home from work, but I had a hot dinner waiting on me.Ā If you are on location again around me, I'll pop in to say hi!
Yea, if the contact is reasonable, he can give the team value. Not a bad run defender, either. Stout (6-5+, 280-ish)Ā
Hate we missed ya in Pville! Weāll be back on the road in July. Will let u know.

That's kinda hard to reconcile with it not being a coaching, player or front office move
Itās not those things, I can tell you that.Ā

Anyway, hope yāall have a fine day. Enjoy the big announcement.

I mean itās starting to sound like itās gonna be something dumb. Probably nothing that improves the team.Ā
It has nothing to do with player personnel, Coaching, front office. Just get your headspace out of that area code,Ā and itāsĀ going to save you some grief later.

where does this news rankĀ
I donāt know, I would just feel comfortable leaving the house for a few hours, and getting some fresh air. The news will be there when you get back. Itās not that type of announcement. And Iām not slightingĀ anyone involved.Ā
