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

    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
    • Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
