Baker Mayfield with less than 50 yards passing for the first half against a team with a beaten up Jameis Winston. I've given him a chance but it's time to take the gloves off. He is slightly better than Sam Darnold and that is only because he doesn't throw as many horrific interceptions but even that could change as the season goes on. Can't believe this man talked all that junk and even sold those shirts. Forty four passing yards!?

Yeah, my issue with Baker has been missing the throws that are open and not throwing it away when the play is dead...  but, the problem is, there is rarely anyone open, the opponent seems to always know what we're running before we run it and have it locked up, and aside from them knowing the plays, the playcalls themselves just have no rhythm...  nothing is setting anything else up.  It's bad.

Yep. Baker missed two throws on that one drive and they were crucial misses on relatively easy throws but this overall offensive design is trash for our personnel. I have no idea why you hire an OC who thinks RBs can't be used in the passing game when your best player is the best pass catching RB in the NFL. And hiring an OC who heavily relied on TEs when that's probably the weakest position group on the entire roster.

It's just a square peg/round hole. The same thing is true on the other side of the ball. We have built a good young core of CBs but they're press man CBs. Why do you hire Steve Wilks as your secondary coach when he's a cover 3 guy? We have our press man CBs playing soft zone 10 yards off the LOS. Again, square peg/round hole.

Rhule went hiring names to impress Tepper with former NFL HCs on his staff. He didn't even bother to try to hire guys who could maximize his roster.

I mean don't get me wrong baker has been bad, really bad... but I can't fathom any qb looking good in this offense behind this line

I think a lot of it too are the schemes and baker’s depth on rollouts 

he also over threw open receivers and had drops

thats why I have said run the ball to get positive yardage and let it be more manageable 

If mcadoo runs one more of those lateral scenes, going to vomit

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
