Matt Rhule is right though, we are so freakin close, if Baker and this offense could just start clicking, we would be unstoppable.

I know, it’s a meme at this point, but if somehow, some way Baker could just snap out of this funk or whatever it is he is going through and start playing better and if Mcadoo can figure out some way to call better plays, we would be so damn unstoppable with this defense that we have. 

I will say that we do at least seem to fix glaring bad spots. The first two weeks we had a lot of fumbled snaps and a lot of batted passes, we seemed to fix those issues. 

I don’t know what it’s going to take, maybe Shinault will be that missing piece that jump starts is, because Baker and DJ Moore just don’t seem to click, if we can just get somewhat better at the passing game to go along with our stout running game les by CMC and our D keeps playing at this level, there is absolutely no reason for us to not be a contender.

Just now, Pejorative Miscreant said:

So basically, if players play better, and coaches call better plays, the team will be better.

sounds reasonable to me.  

But for us in particular it’s the difference between bottom dwellers and contenders. Literally the only thing this team is missing is a passing game. 
 

special teams? Check. Great D? Check. Reliable kicker? Check. Stout and reliable running game? Check. 
 

we wouldn’t even need an elite passing game, if we could simply just become an average passing team, that would be enough with our D and run game. We don’t need baker to be Brady or rodgers, if he could simply be a Kirk Cousins, that’s all we would need from him.

It’s wild what one win will do for some of you lol. We literally had everything fall our way yesterday against Winston with a broken back, missing Michael thomas, Landry, and Taysom hill….yet we allowed them to keep it close. You won’t be able to keep many teams under the golden 17 points so we shall see. I still don’t see us winning more than 5 games total. Our offense is the worst (is not bottom 3) in the league. Same old song and dance with Rhule. Decent defense, horrible offense, 5 wins. Wash, rinse, repeat and collect that check

I hope so.  I'm not quite there with you, but I will say this: Baker has fans from Cleveland.  If this was his normal play, he would not have had ANY fans.  It would've been a universal "He's gotta go!" attitude.

Obviously, he's not looking like our answer at QB right now but I do expect that we'll see a better version of him.  Whether enough to move us to contender?  Like I say, I hope so but I'm not quite there yet.

      Yeah I'm still not sure about Canales' play calling but I'll give him another season. Still can't quite figure out why you think Young won't work out. His numbers with Theilen are as good as any QB Theien's ever had - including the three games he has started with Rogers this year. Cokers' numbers are as good as Theilens and he is an UDFA and TMac is in the run for ORTY with Young as his QB. Young's throwing more accurately now (from 21.5% in 23 to 16.5% this year) and he has shown he can make the throws in clutch moments. If you take into account he was saddled with XL, Chark, Mingo and Johnson for receivers at one point, had a coaching staff his first year that didn't want him and a current coach who is suspect at play calling, I'm not sure he has been as bad as people here say. I know he has had terrible moments/games but most qb's still on their rookie contract will.  Anyway, had to give my weekly BY plug. Guess I thought this was the perfect time lol.

      He missed a lot of time. Was slow getting back up to speed. And we have an offense that is not exactly WR friendly so his targets were low.  How many targets does anyone get when you have 120 yards passing, 54 yards passing, 160 yards, most of the time? It probably took the time it needed to take.

      The 5th year option jus gives them a little more time to make their decision and figure out the position going forward.  The idea that it means hes def gonna get a extension is asinine.
