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

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.

      That doesn't void his contract
