I don't think we will be nearly as unwatchable as last season even if we are not successful. Unless Baker gets injured.

He wasn't great but it's clear that he adds an element of being able to suddenly come back that we don't usually have. That's not nothing.

As I said earlier, was it Baker getting better in the 2nd half or was it the Browns being in control and just calling off the dogs a bit...

Let's see what Baker does in the next game....

 

...if he starts out as well as he finished this game, then there's reason to be encouraged that, at the very least, the team will be watchable this season.

You are not wrong and it is an important distinction from last year. He will be who he was in Cleveland, some dry games and some stat padding games. He will not carry a win often. 

Yeah, but I also don't think this is a roster that was very well set up to win. Add the worst HC in the NFL, a dash of bottom third coaching staff and that isn't much of a recipe for success.

I can't put a lot of this game on Baker, although he didn't play particularly well.

I’m good as well. Just tired of hearing whiny fans complaining incessantly. 

The only people I see complaining are the ones saying we lost because of one bad call by the refs.  No, we lost because we played like garbage the entire game and one bad call was the final nail in the coffin after they dug their own graves.  You are not going to win games when you give up that many rushing yards in the first half and you can't run the ball yourself, lucky they were in it at ALL toward the end.

    • Everybody made too much of that. The CBA and the 17 game schedule is what kills the cohesion we see in teams across the league in the opening games.  You decide, look at your depth and make informed decisions there or you get a an extra quarter or whatever two quarters with your ones.  Teams that are set don’t have those openings as much down the roster to evaluate but that ain’t everybody. It is quandary. I think they need that 4th preseason game back. But as I said, I don’t lay that as the excuse for Bryce to come out looking like he does to start seasons. He has an entire camp. 
    • Hey I said the 1pm west coast team, I said the up down up down and we were due for the up week.  You can’t know what is going to happen. There was a guy that detailed why the league would engineer a Panthers win to bring LA Rams back to the pack in conference standings.  Who really knows, and how much real belief do you have when citing these things? I generally have as much as my superstition allows. It rarely rises to an emotional experience. Usually it is more analytical. In terms of interest. When crazy poo happens and we win a game like today I for sure enjoy it.  I mean you have to think about it, how many times do you connect 2 4th and short situations for TDs? Who does that? That is like the most embarrassing thing for the Rams’ defense lol. That never happens and should never happen.  Expecting it to happen might not be a good plan. But it was pretty great    
    • The defense has mostly stuck to the "break slowly" and get a turnover or two still zero pass rush
