The 4:35 EDT start time is typical for a West Coast/ Pacific Time Zone start. It just looks weird due to the days other game following it in Prime time. It's actually the Sunday games that are unusual start times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in CLE and not just due to his Daddy... SEA has the run-oriented Offense we aspire to have. Baker is a Wilsonesque(-ish) QB. His playcalling has a nice flow to it. 20-year coach with 10 at the OC level. THANK YOU!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that home field is the edge here that lets the DumbAssTexans move on: Houston by 3 over Bills Tennessee at New England. Would love to see Vrabel (did I tell you that his dad coached football at my high school) take out his old boss, BBF (Bitter Beer Face).......BUT.....that Joe/Tom/Dick/Harry Brady guy still plays for NE, and they are at home, and he is going to beat a guy named Tannehill. Pats by 10 Minnesota at New Orleans. Minnesota is my rooting favorite to come out of the NFC....but my rooting interests means diddley about who actually will win. I think NoLa wins not only this game....but wins the NFC. Saints by 13 Seattle at Philly. Philly has great cheesesteaks. Philly has the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall. Philly has a statue of Rocky. What Philly will not have is a win in the 2019 NFL postseason. Seattle by 11 at least. As for photos of administrative assistants.....it seems that if I post a photo of any "young woman"....like, under 50 flugs will accuse me of posting pictures of young teenagers....completely false....unless like Kaley Cuoco, Sophia Loren, Jayne Mansfield, Marilyn Monroe were teenagers to him. So, here you go: I got one spot on: DATs by 3. One I got close: Seattle by 8 rather than my predicted 11. The other two I missed on....but I don't feel bad because while they were not my "picks" as if I had money on them, those 2 were my rooting interest. I had wanted the Bills to win as well, but they blew it. (let's NOT hire Brian DaBoll here, please). I had no rooting interest in that last game....Philly/Seattle.....until, that is, Josh McCown got in the game and I was rooting for him then.

Well never underestimate the power of a tough running game combined with a very good defense. Just let the Ravens' offense sit on the bench for long stretches.

We could even reinstate Baking. But we won't. The upcoming season will be critical for Mayfield. BTW I just wasted 5 minutes listening to Colon Cow-pie rag on Baker again (us fans were booing him after the Ravens game, we don't love him anymore) and suck up to Mr. Wonderful Sam Darnold.

But, I am not telling this to myself, I am telling it to you, because it apparently is not getting through your thick head. Freddie Kitchens was THE major problem with this team and the operation of its offense. I know that to be true. The Cleveland Browns know it to be true. It is why he was fired...by them. Not me. THEY do not believe that Baker was the major problem. Did Baker have problems? Sure. Some of his own creation? Sure. Were his own problems seen to be significant enough for this team to give up on him? Absolutely NOT. Freddie's were. He is now gone. This team has not been hesitant to make a move when they think they have a QB that can't hack it in the future. They did NOT give Kizer, Kessler, Manziel, Hoyer, Weeden, Quinn, Frye anything like what they are giving Baker to try to prove themselves. Going back to Bernie the only guy they have given as much of a chance to to see if he can be the guy is Tim Couch who started parts of 5 seasons. and Derek Anderson got the major parts of 2 seasons....and some smaller parts of 2 others. Baker will obviously be given a full third season and a chance to see how he can do with this new coach...unless you think they are going to be bringing in Tom Brady to play here? If Baker badly falters next year with a new system....then maybe we have something to talk about with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 Baker had 22 INTs, and only got surpassed by Jameis Winston who had 30. Jameis has got over 5,000 yards last two years and has more TDs than Mayfield, but still has a doubtful future in Tampa. Why? Because INTs kill teams. And Baker is not out of blame for HIS INTs. Yeah, some are thanks to the receivers, but other QBs have them too. He has also had some "no-INTs" that could have been had the defender made the play. Very poor reads, bad platform due to a poor footwork are some of the reasons I recall. And don't forget about the ball protection or pocket awareness. He has some fumbles and sacks where I was shouting to the TV before he would do something stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
