We can all agree that Icky has been having a rough go thru the first 2 games, but is the rest of the OL really that bad? Grain of salt given it’s PFF, but maybe Baker has been bailing on pockets a little too much:

If Rhule can’t beat the Saints next week, it’s lights out because he’ll be staring at 0-7 given the upcoming schedule.

And while I would love Sean Payton as well, fact of the matter is the Saints still retain his rights so we'd need to trade for him and I very much doubt the Saints will deal him within the division. IMO he's Dallas bound once McCarthy is fired.

Really would've loved to see Daboll hired last year too but Tepper couldn't swallow his pride and admit his mistake

Candidates I would be happy with: Brian Flores (long shot, doubt he ever gets a HC job again) DeMeco Ryans Byron Leftwich Ken Dorsey (pending how the rest of the season goes for the Bills, but early returns look good) Pete Carmichael

Whatever. At the end of the day whatever gets Matt Rhule canned is good for the franchise long-term. He just doesn’t have it when it comes to game day coaching, period.

Not sure if he’s a starter (not too familiar with Browns secondary)

If Tartt doesn't drop an interception thrown straight to him, the 49ers are likely in the SB. I don't think it's a stretch at all to think the 49ers could win the division this season. In fact, them retaining Jimmy G actually makes me feel better about their chances as they have a proven guy to turn to if Lance does struggle.

To be fair, it seems in recent history there is at least one team that goes from last in the division to division winner the next season. Now, I think the likeliest candidates to pull off that feat in 2022 are the Ravens and maybe the Broncos in the AFC, but with some good fortune/injury luck and improved QB play from Baker, I think the Panthers could definitely pull it off.

Think this is the only pundit I've seen who's picked the Panthers to win the division, let alone make the playoffs:

Who would you suggest? Don’t think anyone is worth it that’s out there. Keep in mind PJ has an entire offseason in the offense and took the most preseason reps, so at least he has knowledge of the scheme. I think PJ sucks but I don’t think it’s prudent to bring someone in off the street at this stage to be the #2 QB. Honestly I hope he gets cut once Darnold is ready to play and we just keep Eason on the PS.

I hope to god this guy doesn't see a regular season snap

Athletic reporting we did indeed receive calls on both Robbie and TMJr but weren’t interested:

I mean he's not really that much more valuable than an undrafted guy. Cut him, hope he makes it thru waivers, if not, o wee mayne

lmao at people who are worried about this or saying Baker shouldn't have said any bulletin board material - it's a big ass bowl of nothing. I'm glad he feels confident in his own game, rather that than Darnold's milquetoast ass personality.

Brady is QB coach in Buffalo

I think it's more likely TMJr gets moved than Robbie, but if Robbie is traded who is WR2? Shi? Higgins? Shenault?

edit: nvm already posted on last page but we should absolutely grab one of these cut DTs

They are not going to give up on a 2nd round pick this early. I could see them trading him, but he won't be outright cut. I think they're more likely to just trust Shi as a returner and cut one (both?) of Roberts/Zylstra (in addition to Saunders who has not shot of making the 53 IMO).

There's some decent DL depth out there between Danny Shelton, Marvin Wilson, and Mario Edwards. I could see one of those guys ending up on this roster.

This coaching staff played Jordan over Brown the entire season last year, what makes you think they see anything in Brown?
