Darnold usually looks good in shorts. Games are when he self destructs. If Baker is going to make up ground it’ll be in pres season 

Yep.  It's the reason why an "open competition" isn't really the best option for these players.  Darnold will look good in practice and poo the bed when it's game time.  We all know this and we know Baker is at least a capable starting QB in this league.  The only competition should be Baker vs Corral.  We know what Sam is.

be that as it may, Baker is still losing valuable reps to Darnold for now good reason.  Anyone with a brain knows Darnold isnt the answer and cannot play.  I mean there is only 4 years of tape that shows he is the worst qb in the NFL.  

 

If it was me I would say baker you are 1, corral 2 and either trade or cut Sam.  He holds literally no value to us

You can’t just not give Darnold reps… they’ll start to skew one way or another as camp goes on but it’s day one man… In coach speak, our QB competition is open and the coaching staff needs to make it appear that way until Mayfield steps up… otherwise Rhule will lose the locker room on day one if he’s going to hand out starting jobs today.

Why cant you put darnold 3rd on the chart?  Not following you here.   Also there isnt a player in that camp that would be pissed if darnold is cut or 3rd string.    Again, darnold fuging sucks.  He has for 4 years nobody is believing this charade that Darnold will win the starting job. 

 

If Rhule is crazy enough to roll sam out there game 1 then holy hell there isnt enough popcorn in the city of charlotte to prepare us to watch that clusterfug

Did you get off the Strong bandwagon?  You weren't this obsessed with Corral until after the draft. It was constant Strong posts over and over and over again....

No Jimmy. Before the draft I said the two most accurate QBs in the draft were Carson Strong AND Matt Corral. Carson is doing great. Matt Corral will scorch the open landscape. Elite mobility AND accuracy on the run. 72%completion year then a 69% year. Damn good.

Your free to look that all up. Yes Corral was on my radar we'll BEFORE the draft. Carson was 70% two straight seasons, don't sleep.

    • I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction
