This is bull crap. Bring back the leather skull caps!

Teddy Bridgewater: If I dont throw down field I wont lose the game... I just also wont win it...

I mean I get the NFL would like the revenge game but to suggest the NFL set this up.. thats a little too much 'tin foil hat' to me..

I would not be shocked if Darnold won. I know thats not the popular answer. I actually really liked Rhules answer the other day. The QB will be selected (in part) by the players, by who they rally around. The players want the best guy, they will support the best guy. I dont really care who wins honestly, but if that player CAN become the man we will years a head in the franchise building process.

I done care... 50% of JJ is better than most WR in this league. Being #3 on the team... yikes..

Get healthy.. we need you BIG this year.

it was a great movie. fun watch.

Took the family to Banff. Pretty sweet park location.

I watched Fitterer's interview the other day and he spoke a few times about Brady and how important his role will be. So, I've been thinking a lot about this, if he is ready to go and can take a starting spot (T/G) we actually could develop into a very dangerous o-line. Our line was so bad last year, we didnt have any chance in games. It really didnt matter who was throwing the ball we were getting blown up every play. It all starts at the line and we have not had a good one for years. Now, finally, it looks like we could make that a team strength. Im excited. The team is getting better. If a QB shows up for us we will make things messy in the NFC. LFG!!!

He could.. overall we are going to have a poor record this year so the pressure will be on Tepper and Fitt to see if Rhule and Baker have done enough, despite the record to stay. The BEST case situation is that Rhule becomes that team building CEO style coach that he was hired to be and Baker proves that he is the 2020 version of himself. Then with a top 5 draft pick we should be able to trade down for a brinks truck of picks. THAT would be the best case situation. Keep the coach, keep the QB, have a top pick.

Uhhh... that was a wired rant after the initial question. But sure, Star would be a great nose.

We have a monster schedule. We might have a good team a competitive team and still really struggle.

I think this this is such an interesting situation. You have a head coach that knows that his job depends on his QB. So he absolutely needs to make sure he fields the best person.. not the most popular one. Baker has the better stats. Darnold has arguably more talent. With your job on the line, it will be interesting to see the choice.

What do you want? A true QB competition or is Bakers job to lose?

Thanks for sharing

I dont watch college football but from a draft grade perspective this is there is lands. Sam Darnold: 7.10 Baker Mayfield: 6.70 Matt Corral: 6.40 Grade descriptions 6.4-6.49: Will become good starter within two years 6.7-6.9: Year 1 starter 7.0-7.1: Pro bowl talent I'm not posting this to argue who is better, just that based on college evaluations, Darnold and Baker were significantly better than Corral in college. How that translates to the pros

They must have seen no improvement from Darnold in the off season training program and that moved the talks. I think they 'hoped' Darnold would step up but they obviously didnt see enough. Clearly Corral was not ready.

I dont get why half this fan base suddenly thinks that the saviour of this franchise is the 94th pick in the draft. There are WAY greater odds that he never starts a single game in the NFL then there is of him somehow being the next Aaron Rodgers that half the people posting here think he is.

yup. just wait out the year. Clean break.

I would love for an open competition. Best man wins. BUT this place would LOSE THEIR DAMN MINDS if Darnold won.

I can appreciate the teams efforts to keep trying to get better. Brrdgewater, Darnold and Baker have all been big upside, low downside moves.

dude.. I think the internet thinks we got an amazing deal and a helluva lot better... I dont get how you read these differently.

... and we would get a comp for him... likely a 4th.

Im excited. Im watching the games regardless who the players are. Now we just got better and have a potential long term franchise QB. The win/loss record probably wont improve dramatically but If Baker balls out we dont need to use that high draft pick on a QB next year.
