If someone is in a meeting room early it means they don't have enough work to do, not that they just care more. 

Literally just responded to this… to the other fella.

Showing up to practice early is the equivalent to showing up to work early… not showing up to a meeting.

Baker had great RB's WR's and offensive line in CLE 

Darnold has never been in a situation even close to what Baker had in CLE

The  OL in Cleveland allowed Baker to be sacked more than Sam last year.  They were 19th in pressure%, we were 32nd.  They were better than us, but I wouldn't call last year's performance great.

So what do you want Brown to do, go back in a tie his shoes again? There’s a difference between being a coach of a football team and leading a desk crew.

I’d rather my guys be early and getting stretched out then wasting time bumping music in the locker room if they are ready to go.

Enjoy your afternoon.

study your playbook, help out a teammate, or by all means go out early if he has nothing better to do. but for the love of smitty, don't do it because you think it shows youre better than the next guy. it doesnt.

And judging by today, Baker is the better option. Running the same scenarios, Baker is pushing the ball downfield and Sam is STILL dumping the ball off, in shorts. It's not even time for pads and Darnold still can't bring himself to use the vertical element of the field while Baker is tossing dimes. Baker is also showing a leadership element by getting up with his receivers in trash talk with Jackson.

We need to "excuse" Sam the same way the 49er's did to Jimmy G. We can trade Sam the same way we traded for Baker.

Some of it might chemistry fit.   OBJ has thrived with mild mannered QBs.  The year Cleveland went to the playoffs OBJ had 300 rec yards and missed half the season.

my God some of ya'll are insufferable. Gotta scroll through 10 pages of this "who's on first" bs to get to actual news. Combined with the Corral stroke-off yesterday and wow I can't wait to see what random, mundane topic two people can hold the entire board hostage with tomorrow! 

ya'll are about to make me sign up for a stupid effing twitter just to cut out all of this unnecessary fluff.

Face it. We don't have a QB. If Baker wasn't trash we wouldn't have got him  for nothing.

The post I responded to specifically said "meeting room". Anyone showing up to work early doesn't have enough to do at home. It's also nearly impossible when you have kids.

In terms of football, it's not like the other guys are straggling to the field late because they've been playing games or farting around. Odd's are they are communicating with their guys, checking the plan for the day, reading the playbook, studying notes from the previous day's practice, etc.

In other words, practice doesn't start once you get on the field, especially for a QB.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
