So?  I'm afraid he alone will not be enough to change the smell coming from BOA. 

But I have come to accept the fact that I will have to endure the Rhule process until the bitter end. He's done a decent attempt to piece together a better offense this season at least I will give him that.

But I digress,  fug Baker Mayfield.

QB coach in 2020 with Jax and a consultant in Dallas last year...not even a full coach but he got let in the meeting room lol.

I don’t get the love outside of desperation. That guy has been going nowhere for years but he will save our season? That is a bad bet. The McAdoo is a good NFL coach is another Sam is basically a rookie type rationale from people who allow so much unnecessary disappointment.

LOL…nope the 4th quarter is way more important obviously 

third quarter shows the adjustments---of course the fourth quarter ends with the final score, but if the game is lost before then, as often was the case, I disagree.

Our offense will be play action pass to try and free up targets for Mayfield to make easier throws. That will work just fine given our talent level UNLESS CMC is injured. If we lose CMC then it's a poop show until he returns.

Which is a damn shame. Here we are the 3rd year in a row we are praying CMC stays healthy and trotting out a throwaway QB hoping he will have a career year under the tutelage of a bunch of has been or never where coaches.

True.

However, hope springs eternal in the hearts of fans...

The 3rd quarter slump was actually just a continuation of the 2nd quarter cliff and though it shows on both sides of the ball,  it is very pronounced on the O side:

This fits with what we saw in the game, a good first couple drives and then suck for 2 quarters. 

I ran epa charts looking at  Baker himself, in 2020 and the Giants in 2014 and 2015 when McAdoo was OC( https://rbsdm.com/stats/stats/) hoping that we would see improvement here.  Baker's drop off is in the 4th quarter.    McAdoo shows a similar drop off, BUT he starts off at a much higher EPA.

If you look, very few teams in the top right quadrant stay there.  You have the Bucs, that it.  The real problem isn't we drop off, its that our peak is so fricking low.  We wouldn't care if we started out top right and dropped to middle top right.  The problem is our QB, OL and OC sucked last year.    Lets hope they suck less this year.

      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

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      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.
