Vilma kept mentioning it was our lineman's fault bc they arent chopping them down. Could be something there.

i don't wanna make excuses for baker but it HAS to be, right? we've had plenty of stank ass QBs in this town and this has never, ever been an issue like this.

i mean as offensive linemen you can hand fight to keep the DL's arms down without holding, right?

I've noticed that when the players on opposing teams dont get through their blocks.... they stop in their tracks and just watch the QB and then jump to bat the ball. I called that out against the Giants... i found it interesting because it seemed to be coached.

Baker's an easy target because  ...

A)whenever he gets in trouble then he automatically almost always rolls out to his right...

B) he sits & stares down his reciever leading the defense more than any other starting Qb i've seen in the NFL prior to releasing the football ...

C) & he's a midget with little man syndrome causing him to say things he can't back up creating unessary momentum for the other team to kick his & our ass with an exclamation mark.& moreover if not this year while being a Carolina Panther then well more than likely in the past he's rubbed someone on the oppsing team the wrong way with his big mouth...

D)& I honestly believe that the NFL has figured out this offense to the point that they are able to easily diagnose the play prior to the snap on at least 75% of their plays...

E) plus he simply sucks...

I have literally never seen anything like this in my entire life. He's on the shorter size but that can't be it, plenty of other signal callers are the same height. 

I've never watched another team's games and seen anything like this, and we see it every game. It's absolutely insane.

Is it completely Baker? Is it really bad scheming with regard to opening passing lanes? Is it poor offensive line coaching?

This is a dysfunctional offense the likes of which I never thought I'd see rivaled after the pickles era and I don't know what to make if it mechanically.

Maybe the teams trying to get rule fired?  Maybe.

From what I've heard, batted balls are on the offensive line. Also, the playcalling is trash, the defense knows where we are going with the ball and when to jump. Mayfield was looking pissed at the end of the game and I think he knows the playcalling is garbage

this is wrong. He has the exact opposite issue. He moves through his targets too fast... that's why he misses open throws. There is hours and hours and hours of footage of this.

Fire as usual @PhillyB. You don’t see R Wilson, Murray, etc getting balls batted like this. It’s a hmmmm from me dawg.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F  
    • You gonna make me post Stank before every game?  I kid, I kid.
