I hope the farce doesn't last long. We need to let Baker get all the 1st the reps ASAP

Of course, Jordan is our starting LG and Elf is our starting C---as of July 28 or so.

I think they are respecting the existing starters so that they give the appearance of competition.  I suppose that it is demoralizing to be a starter and have some free agent from another team come in and take your job without giving you the chance to fight to keep it.  Kind of a "king of the hill" thing--

By the first preseason game, our OL and QB should be set.

 

I sure hope you are right. If Elflein and Michael Jordan start it will be bad news.

I can’t understand why in the actual f*ck Matt Rhule is allowing Darnold to waste valuable reps with the 1’s. 

Baker needs all the reps he can get to build chemistry with this group. And spoiler alert (apparently) there is no QB competition so he’s literally just wasting reps

And to a lesser degree the same goes for PJ and Corral. Darnold and Corral should be splitting the leftover reps after Baker

Optimistic view: Yay good coverage without Horn! 

also optimistic view: this QB competition might be settled sooner rather than later. Sam is already in his own head. 

There is a tweet right after that one stating Baker was 1-3. So yay, better! I guess.

So much this. Baker should be getting 1st team reps and Corral should be getting 2nd's. Even if Corral doesn't play this year he needs the reps. We know, hell the whole league knows, what Darnold brings.

    • He is "Keep Pounding." https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45498715/nfl-carolina-panthers-chuba-hubbard-olympics-flag-football-track
    • This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one. 
    • I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.
