Is the OL really that bad?

At this point, might as well.  (When he's healthy of course)

No. Baker has his down sides but Sam isn't really worth a backup QB spot at this point. Can't see the field and the beating he took last year is the kind that gives a QB a case of the Carrs. No thank you sir.

Darnold sucks, but at least he can physically see downfield without scrambling out of the pocket.  It doesn't matter.  We're screwed at QB.

I have concluded the reason why it seems so hard to evaluate any position or player to a large extent is because 1. they are coached and schemed for college while playing in the NFL and 2. they are playing opposing players that are scheming AGAINST amateur hour college strategies, immediately putting them at a disadvantage, especially rookies.

I'd like to see what Sam Darnold looks like behind this line 

Shockingly change the jerseys and it does feel like the same play.

 

Thing is Baker was supposed to make a couple plays to help get the panthers over the hump, hes not made enough..... idk if its him getting here late, not liking BBQ, or what...... just like Rhule needs to make a few decisions to improve the panthers chances...... that same deal goes for Baker....

1st it was teddy B, then Sam and/or joe Brady, now McAdoo and Baker.........

It's matt rhule. That said this was predictable if you refuse to run the ball as Matt has done. Baker, Sam, and Teddy are all guys that cannot carry a team when asked to drop back or start from the gun and just sling it. Also, Joe Brady had a better script that this crap from ol man McAdoo.

 

The browns stat from playaction vs drop back should be telling. Give him a big time run game and weapons, and he's a manager. That was the browns issue and why they looked elsewhere and didn't want to hold on to him. They need someone to do more than ride everything off just the running game with their aspirations. Funny that it's teppers guy in Watson though.

    • From what i see, Canales offense requires a QB that is willing to take chances to maximize the offense. XL is also the kind of receiver that needs a qb to be risky to bring out his full potential. Its just a matter of if Bryce is gonna be that QB.
    • Baker just played how Baker played.... everywhere but here. He is a risk taking gunslinger.  Always has been.  And last year was asked to be what he was.   Geno Smith was the best deep ball passer in the NFL his comeback season.  Wasn't even close that year.  Again, that's the type passer Canales has always been around in the offenses he has been part of.  The pass game that compliments the stubborn run is the deep chunk play pass game.   And that was his first investment with XL.  My continued point, is the same as going into last season.  It's a bad marriage going in.  The QB doesn't fit the scheme.  Again.  Carrol/Fox/Ron....all paired up their boring football with risk taking QBs.  And again, I'm fine if that is where we are going.  It's not my preference but that's not my argument.  I'm saying if we are doing that, we need a QB that matches it.     
    • I guess you missed the point. His rushing attack was dead last yet his team still performed. That’s not Fox/Rivera ball. His QB also had a career year. Remember the same QB that played for us in the same division and was so bad he was cut?  Carroll coached after Lynch as well. In fact Canales was more involved in the more recent offense with Geno Smith and a good rushing attack. People are taking him wanting a rushing attack and assuming that means we are shutting down our passing attack. Again many of the top offenses like SF, Miami, and Detroit featured strong rushing attacks.
