Don’t even waste your time with this troll. His dad knows Tepper or something *allegedly*

He doesn't know anybody...or anything, for that matter.

He tries to crap on others' opinions in order to prop himself up, but everybody knows not to take him seriously.

The only question is whose alt he is.

He used to be on here under the name Sanjay, among others.

As to the actual important stuff, I'd guess Ben McAdoo might be one of the people with a lesser opinion. If he were on board I'd expect Mayfield might already be in the fold.

As to who wants him, most likely suspect is gonna be Rhule.

I'm gonna trust mcadoo and not fhule.  So whatever he wants to do we should

So, since you are in touch with "insiders", tell us this...

1.  How many ppl are in the set of opinions that "she" says would all have to be in the same place to constitute "organizational consensus"?  3?  5?  More?

2.  Which of the people in that set are "high" on Baker...and which aren't?

Do tell...

I would assume organizational consensus would likely be referring to the owner, GM, HC and possibly OC.  So someone out of that group wants Baker.  Someone doesn’t.   Would assume the GM/HC have high odds of being on different pages…..otherwise I don’t think the narrative exists.   If Rhule and Fitt wanted him it wouldn’t matter if McAdoo didn’t IMO. 
 

and I generally side with long term and high rep NFL reporters generally being right about things they cover.  They might not have all the facts right but they got the gist down.

McAdoo was reported to not be a huge fan of Mayfield when he was drafted.

Probably.

Just play Corral and not recycled garbage. We all should know who is a pro for Baker because we have been forced to watch his other failures at QB...

[Wes21]

Whomever "isn't high" on Baker Mayfield should get a promotion.

Baker is definitely better than Sam Darnold but he's not good enough to hand the franchise to and stunt Matt Corral's growth and opportunity.

Give Corral as many snaps as Chuba did in preseason. Don't see why Rhule gets stuck on forcing some rookies into success and giving others pretty much no opportunity. Every team learns a QB's traits, I'd rather know if Corral can ball out sooner rather than later because he'll probably be the only current QB on the 2023 roster

Because you know that answer...Fans still think we can win despite his giant and obvious flaws. It's comical in a sad clown way at this point.

Yeah I do, and I'm worried he's going to be in even more of a panic mode this year since the seat is super hot. He fooled people in the OTA presser last week acting like he's calm and collected but he's gonna freak under pressure, much like Sam in practice vs real games

[RJK]

macadoo doesn’t want him, that much we know. I’d bet Rhule does hoping it’ll save his job.

Preseason snaps are better than nothing, but the regular season snaps are where we would need to see him to judge what he's made of.  "Speed of the game" is one of the biggest things that players have to adjust to when they get to the NFL.  And part of that speed comes from gameplanning, which doesn't happen during preseason.

I remember Justin Fields putting up some highlight plays in preseason.  Then he made the comment after one of the preseason games that the NFL is slower than he thought.  Once the regular season hit, he saw the difference and it ate him alive.

I wanna give Fields another year before declaring anything. He was in and out of the lineup with a shitty offense, he flashed at times and took some bumps that he'll probably correct. Yeah dumb comment but his coaching staff was also a mess
