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.

      Bryce Young vs Caleb Williams

      By strato · Posted

      All this is why I dislike the doctrine of investing so heavily in unknown college players. QBs are mostly value inflated unrealistically in a whole bunch of years. Rarely do you get one that is obviously a great bet.  Even Stroud, with all his measurable and with a valid pro arm, was not inspiring me to trade the future. And we’ll see, but he has the ability you look for and showed out right from day one. Still I think it is a crapshoot and would prefer to invest in more predictable position talent. Which is also a gamble but one I prefer. .

      Bryce Young vs Caleb Williams

      By CRA · Posted

      Dude walked out of OU as a freshman because the coach wouldn't give him the job over a kid projected at the time to be a 1st round draft pick.   He is acting like an elementary school kid crying in his momma's lap on field after their 2nd loss this year.  some of his teammates seemed to be glad he was gone in that Bowl game.  then you can basically listen to any casual interview he does like with The Pivot or whatever, dude seems just a mess IMO.   Hard to actually listen to that dude and think he will mesh with grown NFL men.  Pivot guys seemed hard pressed to bite their tongues at times to his utter nonsense.  I just have never seen it with this kid.  He put up some numbers in the PAC12.  He won 1 random bowl game in college.  I just don't buy folks trying to sell him as better prosect than Burrow, Trevor, etc. like they try.

      Draft Eve NFL Draft Trivia Quiz

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Just FYI, that USA Today quiz is from 2021 and is no longer accurate. For example, question 3 “Which of these schools has not had a #1 overall pick since 2000?” The “correct” answer is Alabama, and I think we all know that is not true anymore.
