Baker may be happening today.

I fully believe that either Baker or Jimmy G will be our starter on opening day. Rhlue knows that he's on the hot seat and starting Darnold will almost certainly get him fired. All this faking pumping up of Darnold's confidence is just in case we might actually have to start him this season. While I love corral's talent, he's going to need time to learn how to run an NFL offense before he's game ready. I'd prefer us take a chance on baker because he would come cheaper and maybe the big dose of humble pie he got from the NFL will change him and allow him to hit his full potential. Jimmy G is just a more attractive Teddy Bridgewater with a bum shoulder.

Sigh.  Not at your CmC2k just at this line of thinking, which is not wrong.  Rhule is coaching for his job and seemingly will do something rash to save it.  Whether its trade for baker for a year or give a nice big contract to jimmy g.

 

He should however be telling mcadoo to be creating an offense that corral can jump into week one and build from there.  The easiest way for rhule to keep his job is to show corral can win some games and be an nfl qb.  That buys him time.  Throwing more poo at the wall at qb is a sure fire way to get canned

God forbid you dare mention the word "clickbait" in reference to the 27th vague obscure tweet about how an anonymous source heard from their anonymous source's anonymous source that there's possibly a chance that maybe we could perhaps consider trading for Baker sometime between today and 2027...cause that's toxic as hell and I won't stand for it!!!

In fairness if someone is still stewing about this days later you're kinda proving his point.

Oh Franky, I'm so glad I have you to follow me around in threads to tell me how mad I am, otherwise I would just never know.  My "stewing" + your saltiness, what a perfect pairing we make.

I'm absolutely not wasting my time reading any of that condescending bullshit. You made a point, stood by it, and it was refuted. Take your garbage elsewhere and see if the high-and-mighty act works on someone else.

, how mad would you say I am?  Frank's salt is more than enough for my stew, I don't need yours thanks.  Gotta watch my sodium levels!

I'd say you're definitely one of the angriest people on this board, for sure.

Can you explain the incongruence between what I said vs. what you said? If I'm starting off my sentence with "Lol do you guys actually think", it should signal that I'm emphasizing the ridiculousness of what follows.  If I say something like "Lol do you actually think Jimmy Clausen is the best QB in franchise history?" - suffice to say, that's probably not a position that I myself hold.

If you're getting hung up on me saying "that's literally the entire point of my post" to you asking me if I think people need to make things up to criticize Tepper - I meant the entire point of my post is asking that same question, i.e. "do you people seriously feel the need to make things up to criticize Tepper".  Not that the entire point of my post is that people do need to make things up to criticize him.  Sure maybe I could have phrased that better, but if I was saying what you think I was saying, I'd in essence be holding the position that Tepper is perfect and infallible.  If you apply even the slightest bit of context or critical thinking, it should be pretty obvious that this is not a position I hold.

Really?  That post?  Interesting.  I would definitely say more "condescending" as you correctly identified the first time, but as a bleeding heart liberal, I would never dare invalidate your feelings.  Bottom line is that you were the one who got fed up and stormed off during that discussion, not me.

If this was an Xbox Live Call of Duty lobby, you'd totally be pwning my n00b ass with this "U mad bro?" line.  But I dunno I guess it doesn't really sting very much when you're a grown adult.  Just feels kinda cringe bro.

Witnessing your pithy attempts at gaining some upper hand (at what? For what?) over a course of multi-paragraph word salad amuses the hell out of me.

By the way, I'm a Democrat, too. And you are mad as hell.

Guys, I found a safe in a new house I just bought that hasn’t been opened since 1983. It says it contains the exact time Baker Mayfield will be traded to the Carolina Panthers. Crazy how it predicted both the Panthers who didn’t exist yet nor did Baker but I digress. I’ll post the info once I open it, I super pinky swear promise. spacer.png

No YOU mad!! 

Am I doing this right?  Is this seriously the level of discourse you want to contribute to these boards?

On a side-note: what do you think "pithy" means?  I'm not sure how you reconcile characterizing my post as both "pithy" and a "multi-paragraph word salad" lol.  Those are quite literally completely contradictory.

    • Director of College scouting should be next. I'd like to see the organization go after Senior Bowl Director Jim Nagy who's a good friend of Dan Morgan back in their time in Seattle 
    • I always just go back to what I said at the time. Trade Burns to the Rams because it's a fantastic deal. I was screaming it. I'm still angry at Fitt over that. Right after he turned down the deal I said he needed to get into a time machine and go back and make the deal. Hate that dude. Ruined our team. Trading D.J was a major mistake because what matters most in the NFL is the passing game, so you never unload a proven #1 WR when there are other options. Always trade a defensive player over a WR if you have that option available. Fitt was precious about defensive players when we had a passing offense that didn't function. That's how know he was completely incompetent. The passing offense is the top priority, so until that is functioning all defensive players are possible trade fodder. At this point we're in a rebuilding year under a new GM and a QB who looks absolutely horrendous. It makes perfect sense, if you follow all of our moves, that we would be the worst team in the NFL. Of course we are. You can't screw up as a GM that many times over the years and not ruin the franchise. We're exactly where we should be, dead last, or bottom 3. Whichever you like. But this is the here and now. Dan did a good job getting our 2nd round pick back, and we won't know about the picks until they take the field in regular season games. We're in dark until then, but if they suck the Panthers media will hide it shamelessly. Remember when Young was supposed to be a football genius? Yeah he was rancid turds out there when live fire started. There is some hope. Either Young improves and we win more games, or he stays about the same and we draft a new QB in 2025. Either way the NFL will help us out of this jam, but all we need is for Dan not to screw it up.
