I don't understand the Corral argument. If Baker doesn't have us in playoff hunt, Corral will start two or three games at end of year to give us a look and possible momentum for next season. 

holy poo, 2 or 3 games.  Wow, you mean just like with Brady christenson.  That worked out aces

I think once Baker clearly beats Darnold then Matt and Darnold will probably get equal reps if not Matt getting more.  This is a season to groom Matt and let him learn the playbook and the vocabulary and go through mental reps and if he continues to improve and develop their hope is for him to step into the starting qb spot next season.  Thats my take anyways.

There's only so much you can do with "mental reps." You need full speed, game speed reps against a team that spent all week preparing for you.

Can't fault the team for always trying. Some work out, some don't. Who knew Teddy wouldn't be as good as expected. We gave more picks for Sam because we got him before the draft and Baker is damaged good and in a no win situation from his team, that's why we got him cheap. 

I hope there's a QB battle. Imagine Sam wins 😉

He’s desperate. Baker is not the answer. This move will cost us a legit QB in the draft.

At this rate we’ll be in QB purgatory until the 2030’s.

We werent going to be in the running for a top 3 pick regardless of what sports illustrated or whoever said.  Our roster is improved fairly drastically since last year and we were barely in the top 10 then.

Not gonna lie, did not want Baker. But at that price, who could even be mad? He's immediately our best QB and has shown WAY more than Darnold ever has............all for a 2024 5th rounder and 5 mil. I'll take it.

This is classic rhule/fitterer "lets keep throwing poo against the wall" instead of having a plan.   I am so disgusted right now.  This is the 3rd poo qb this moronic franchise has wasted resources on instead of drafting and playing someone.

What would your plan be?  Throwing in Matt before hes ready just because you want him to be is the definition of throwing poo at the wall.

It's pretty great value if they think one of those guys can be the franchise QB

Not to mention, we’d have never got baker for that cheap if we hadn’t spent that third on Corral imho. We’d have probably had to spend the third just to get Baker.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
