Well, my theory on why he starts Sam first is that going to Baker then gives him something in order to extend his time.   He can BS why he doesn’t start Baker out of the gate. 

If he starts Baker out of the gate, we suck and the boos come early like last year…he is fired in season.   There are no scapegoats or players this year that would buy him more time if the stadium does what it did last year. 

Baker will start.  Rhule wanted him. But I have said for some time I predict Sam opens on week 1 as the starter and Rhule gets out of him whatever he can first.  He can only get usage out of Sam pre Baker IMO.  

Rhule is going to do Matt Rhule things.  I will keep betting on that. 

No way in hell he doesn't start the guy who can save his job.

So you do want to bet?

Avatar for avatar.  Baker starts week one.

Sure.  I would be delighted to lose that bet.  I don't want to be right.  

I'll only do a week.  I don't want to look at Matt Rhule's face on my profile but for so long.

No way in hell Sam Darnold was suppose to come back and unseat Cam Newton just because Cam had 2 weak/bad games.

Rhule is likely going to mismanage the OL to start the season too.  That's kind of Rhule's thing.  Specifically the QB mismanagement.  I'll keep betting on Rhule being Rhule until he proves he shouldn't be viewed that way.

Cool.  1 week avatar for avatar.  Baker starts week one.

Don't worry I'll come up with something better than Rhule, though that's not a bad idea.

The Ravens let him go for almost nothing. Are we missing something? 

The ravens are preparing for having the highest paid player in the league you gotta cut a few good players out to get that done. I saw an article said they thought he outplayed what they can afford bc he was rated the 11th best center. We got a good center who still in his prime.

Here is something to think about with your brains:

We potentially have 3 QBs on the roster this year better than our starter last year.

You say to yourself, "But silly man--one of the QBs you mention was our starter.  How could this be?"

I say to you, "Yes, but he is possibly better this year.  He has competition.  He has a better OL and OC.  He has to be better than last year."

"And Corral could quite possibly be the second best QB (right now) on this roster, behind only Baker."

    • With Schoen and Dan Morgan being tight I’d figure we knew this was coming and since he is released, Dan didn’t bite.    But, a quick search says this is at least 80% cap related. They have No cap space and save 8 or 9 million with releasing him.  He has been a captain his entire time there. 145 tackles this year.  They are picking 5th with a new staff and looking at Styles. Hitting that age 30 season and had a disc issue last year (meaning 2024) that did not require surgery.  I haven’t really watched him play but he activated the antennae.   
    • OK, we are letting our top RB go.  We have Chuba, Etienne, and Brooks.  Imagine a player who could LEGITIMATELY play the slot and back up at RB?  I am sure he'd be a special team player as well.  I noticed him at the combine, and thought, "Here is a late rounder who could stand out as a slot and provide depth at RB. Without further ado....(I know one Huddler who might be able to tell us more about this guy): Navy running back/wide receiver Eli Heidenreich headlined the 2026 NFL Combine for the Midshipmen, running an official 4.44-second 40-yard dash and recording 16 reps on the bench press. Recognized as a versatile, "Swiss army knife" offensive weapon, Heidenreich solidified his draft stock as a potential day three target.    Eli Heidenreich (RB/WR - Navy) 2026 Combine Performance: 6'0" 200 lbs.   40-Yard Dash: 4.44 seconds. 10-Yard Split: 1.55 seconds. Vertical Jump: 35.5 inches. Broad Jump: 10' 0". Bench Press: 16 Reps. Highlights: Showcased as a premier receiving threat from the backfield, having left Navy as the program's all-time leader in receiving yards (1,994). High character.  Smart.  Maybe, just maybe....  
    • These refs are horrible.  They definitely got money on this game lol.
