Mayfield vs Winston

Winston is getting 28 million over two years with 21 guaranteed. We only guaranteed Baker 1 year for 5 million. I’ll take the “immature” QB for that contract. Also let’s not pretend like Jameis is some saint… well I mean he technically is, but still…

They seam to forget about that whole crab legs thing huh. Aints gonna ain't. 

Browns finally win a playoff game and they trade away their QB. And then to make themselves feel better they throw their QB under the bus.

GL with that QB that last time we saw him win just 4 games and his 250 million guarantee plus multi 1 st Rd draft pics you gave up for him.

You're talking about two imperfect QBs. It's an interesting exercise for some (I guess). Winston and Baker do have their similarities (I can't help but think of anything but negative, not saying that it's all negative), and Winston wins the he's-likeable award--whoopie! I don't know if he wins the works-hard award, and even if he did, I would hope that this changes in 2022. Unless Baker is a fool, or the biggest, self-entitled, delusional prick that you will ever see, he better come in as humble, coachable and willing to work hard as any QB that you will ever see. 

Not saying that it is, but this could just be a little hate on the Saints camp's part because we got Baker on the cheap. 

At the end of the day, the only thing that will matter is play on the field.

I would have juat stopped at they have had similar careers. Neither are optimal choices but that is the difficulty of the NFL.

I think the Saints stink up the NFC South along with the Falcons and us. I just don't see them turning around the hole they dug to keep Brees the last couple of years. Then add in Hill and it is fun to watch as a distraction.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
