His bread is buttered by the NFL Network, which would benefit more from Stephen A. and Shannon Sharpe negative hot takes. Pandering to a small market fanbase is  buttering a whole baguette with a pat of butter.

Yeah as an employee of the NFL network he is by extension an employee of ownerships. They say fluff and he either fluffs or he can go join the 'sports media' cesspool and leave his cushy job. 

If they started throwing those kinds of stones that the clickbait crowd lives by then billionaires with egos to match could get motivated in all the wrong ways. It is basically nothing more than Panthers.com for the NFL: information, propaganda & marketing and not journalism.

Jake was a top 15-20 QB.  Berlien was a top 15-20 QB.

Yeah exactly.  You can win and be competitive as long as you have decent play from the position.  Darnold was far from decent.  Jake at the middle of the pack go to as many Super Bowls and an elite talent like Cam did for us.  People seem stuck on this we have to get a top 5 QB on suck until we do...

Top Tier (1-4):
P.Mahomes, A.Rogers, J.Allen, T.Brady

Next Level (5-11)
J.Burrow, L.Jackson, J.Herbert, M.Stafford, D.Watson, D.Carr, R.Wilson

Starting Caliber (12-15)
D.Prescott, K.Cousins, K.Murray, R.Tannehill

Ups & Downs (16-20):
M.Ryan, J.Hurts, B.Mayfield, J.Garoppolo, Mac Jones

Time Will Tell... (21-23):
T.Lawrence, J.Fields, Z.Wilson

Bottom Rung (24-32):
J.Winston, C.Wentz, M.Trubisky, D.Lock, J.Goff, D.Jones, D.Mills, M.Mariotta, T.Tagovailoa

I would put Tagovailoa in the Time Will Tell tier, and Dakota (as much as I hate Dallas) in the Next Level tier. I also, without a doubt and probably some consternation, put Russ in the top tier.

I might eliminate the Starting Caliber tier altogether and drop all of them down to the Ups & Downs tier.

Anyone throwing Burrow and Herbert in above Baker make me laugh.

If Baker was as good as Herbert or Burrow half the league would have been clamoring to trade for him when he became available. 

If he were as good as either of them, the Browns never trade for Watson. 

You dont get a Herbert or Burrow level talent for a conditional 5th and ~5m

Lay off the crack.

Wait, what?

Baker should be above the guy who just took his team on his shoulders to the Super Bowl, and below the guy who in just two seasons has more game winning drives than Baker has in four?  Go watch some football man.  Burrow and Herbert are the next generation unless something derails them.  Those boys can play.

Gimme some of what you're smokin I guess.

Gonna be some really disappointed fans when Baker doesn’t turn this team around.  All the same excuses were thrown around last offseason when they trade for Sam.  

At least it will be very easy to walk away if he fails.  No future 2nd and $18.5 million dollar extension.

      Ehlers needs to sit. Definitely can't lose him to a meaningless game.

      Bet didn't hit because the referee missed 3 clear corner kicks. I had a 5k parlay that would have been alive tomorrow if he didn't miss those calls as well. Super annoying

      I don't think it's at all a given that we have players who are good at driving the basket. I guess that depends on your definition. Bridges is 43rd in attempts in the paint Miller is 64th and LaMelo is 66th. We all love to see the lob threat but it's largely miniscule at this point in time. There's gotta be a solution here if LaMelo is to be the centerpiece because this is simply not sustainable if we want to continue to ascend. If he can't drive to the basket then that means we need to add another player to the core who consistently can. That would require moving someone like Miles Bridges. And that's certainly not going to be popular with LaMelo but something has to give here for what we are investing and we need to maximize guys like Miller and Knueppel on rookie deals while we still can. The three chucking is fine when it's working where the issue comes into play is there are no adjustments when it isn't and we just go into a shell and begin to look like the Hornets of yesteryear. That's why the offensive evolution of all involved is critical to us taking the next step. Getting to the play in is nice but we should have our sights set much higher. Right now though they need to take care of business against the Heat. All I ask is that they at least beat those fools. I cannot stand the Heat.
