Give me some hope. Can this offense be turned around?

Unlike all the crybabies that want us to lose so that they can write juvenile open letters to David Tepper, I'm trying to remain hopeful here.

Can our offense turn it around? Can the OL gel? Can Baker get it together? Give me a few reasons to think it's a possibility.

Also, is Darnold still alive? Is he even on the sidelines? 

Bonus points if you can explain to me why our secondary sucks and is reverting to a Rivera soft zone.

It will turn around once Sam is put in week 5 or week 6. 

Baker is so fundamentally bad, I question what the coaches were looking at during training camp. He has the absolute worst footwork in the pocket of any starting QB in the league. The problems he displays in games actually showed up in training camp i.e cant see over linemen, having to move out of pocket to see throwing lanes, terrible feet in the pocket. Just the absolute worst

 

Baker is officially the worst rated starting QB in the league now. Just terrible

If the Oline keeps improving it can mask alot of deficiency... Play calling may get better with more trust.. But my money is the Oline ..

I feel like the offensive line has played horrible and is to blame a lot for Baker sucking. I also would love to know how many passes has been dropped by our team this season, it seems like a lot.

 

I guess the positive is that our offense can’t get any worse.

About what?

I don't think the Oline has been horrible... Alot of Bakers problem are on Bakers and the play calling has been vanilla.. But Oline has steady improved every game.. Run blocking has been way better than last year.. I actually see team having to stacked the box and we still get plus plays.. Pass blocking is coming along with Baker having more time then Darnold and Teddy.. Plus simple stunts and blitzes aren't automatically working against them.. Teams are actually having to use some exotic stuff to get pressure this year.. Last year they could bring 4 and destroy the oline..

Maybe I’m wrong, but I feel that Baker seems to be under pressure a lot. Yes our run game has improved but is that because we have CMC?

    • Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.  
    • I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.
    • Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
