I really think we are going to pass more with McAdoo as OC and Baker at QB. 

Wasn't that the whole disconnect between Rhule and Brady? Brady wanted to pass more and Rhule wanted to run more.

I'd be surprised if Rhule backs off of being a run-first team.

We pretty much completely sucked at both.  Would your plan be to have Sam throw more?

Im not even sure the offense is that much improved unless Baker steps his game up. These are the numbers from last year without factoring in Baker was on a playoff ready roster and Darnold was on one of the worst coached teams in the league with no OL. I know darnold sucks with or without an OL, but still. 

Baker: 60.5% 3010 yards,17TDs, 13ints Badthrow% 20.9 OnTarget% 73.6
Darnold :59% 2527 yards,9TDs 13ints Badthrow% 18.5 OnTarget% 74.5

Was darnold playing injured with a coach that was getting him killed on purpose every week? Did you watch that last Steelers game. He didn’t even attempt to protect his qb. 

I'd love an additional 500 yards and 8 touchdowns.  We lost 6 games alone by less than a score.

Baker was actually sacked 43 times last year, while Sam was sacked 35.  Neither line was really kicking ass, the Browns were down both tackles at one point.

Yes but what is he basis that off of?  He has to be pulling the numbers from somewhere? 

Don't know where his numbers come from.  I know the deep ball project has similar conclusions, that Baker is in the top tier for deep ball accuracy each year. 

He's at PFF so they have their own thing I guess.

It kind of makes sense though.  He had a good OL and strong running game where they could utilize his strong arm on PA plays.  His arm also got him into some trouble forcing some throws.

Baker has had flashes

Baker's highest completion percentage games:
2021, Houston 90.4 (19-21)
2018, Atlanta 85.0 (17-20)
2020, New York Giants 84.4 (27-32)

Baker had a 5 TD game against Cincinnati in 2020.  That's like half of what Darnold did all last year.

Baker's highest passer rating games:
2018, Atlanta 151.2
2020, Tennessee 146.9

So, I think what we can HOPEFULLY say is that last year was an injury ravaged aberration in his career, and that before last year, he was maybe one of the most successful Number 1 overall picks in NFL history.  Im very interested to see how this all plays out.

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

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
