    Yea Mayfield sucks. Can't believe he was rated so high in the NFL top 100.

    Patriots have to force the Ravens into 2nd/3rd & longs. Don’t let the offense get chunk yards on 1st down. Put them in obvious passing downs & drop LBs into coverage.

    I have to give Lamar some credit. I thought he was going to be possibly a fluke. But there’s something with him that I haven’t seen with any other qb I’ve watched. He’ll fool me at times thinking he’s going to run and throws instead. He could be big in this league and the future. He just needs to be careful running and some Burfict like player taking his knee out. That’s all it takes. He read the blitzes perfectly.

    Dak throws a 7 yard pass and the tight end runs it 45 yards because of horrible tackling for the td. Overall, Dak looks awful. Jones looks like the better qb head to head this game. 3 and 1 Elliot runs like 6 yards. If cowboys somehow lose this game, enigma will try and blame Zeke somehow.

    Not a single sport analysts that I watched on tv has mentioned Dak as a mvp. You can’t just wins against a bunch of s-----y teams. They got their a--- beat by any decent team and the jets mopped them. I believe from discussion earlier today, Lamar may be leading the mvp candidate for now.

    holy f--- are the refs just handing the giants ridiculous penalties to help the cowboys. Even the announcers said that Cooper pass interference was bs. Cooper also had his hands on the defender. If giants could actually score in the redzone this game, giants would easily be winning this game tonight.

    This game was close for too long but nonetheless a nice win. I’m glad the defense was able to finally generate some turnovers. We passed & ran the ball well today but again got so consumed in the running game that it hurt us at times. Too many penalties as well. Vs a better team, like the one we play next week, that will lose us the game.

    dang, panthers put Cam on IR due to that nagging foot injury

    Also, Foles is healthy again and will start in the Jaguars next game

    I think the panthers want to secretly go with Allen the rest of the year tbh. Mise well rest Cam, while you have a qb winning games. Wonder which team Cam will be on next year. Maybe the Browns?

    that’s probably one of the least likely teams he’d land on. The browns just used a number 1 OVERALL pick on Baker not long ago.

    Yes, Baker has regressed this season, but it’s not likely they’re gonna replace him with Cam Newton at 30 some years of age

    Besides, teams don’t give up on QBs that soon—especially a guy who was taken before anyone else

    I’m now convinced you have something against Baker Mayfield

    I have nothing against Baker honestly lol I was just so tired of some sport analysts and you and enigma saying they’re a AFC Super Bowl team. If they start Baker next year, they’ll get rid of Odell for a good player or 2 and get a WR who fits with Baker more. Like I think Tyler Boyd would fit with Baker more. It’s bakers cocky attitude even when he loses and talks s--- to more respected and better nfl players on Twitter. His ego is so big from last year, that in his head he thinks he’s some top 5 qb. Imo, he’s a backup qb in the nfl. Ik I wouldn’t want him as my starter or I wouldn’t even watch the games.

    I picked the Browns to win the division, that’s it. I never said AFC Super Bowl team.

    They traded a lot to get Beckham. Unless he demands a trade...it’s very unlikely they’re gonna get rid of him one year after trading a lot to get him

    Baker has struggled for sure. His main problem is too many turnovers. There is no if Baker starts next year; he’s going to. Period. Teams don’t give up on players that were taken as high as he was that soon.... and while he is struggling; he’s not playing as bad as you’re making it seem

    Man, I hope your last two posts in this thread weren’t genuine—because if they were you’ve got a lot to learn

    too many turnovers for sure but a lot of them aren’t entirely his fault either. Half his ints are off tipped passes. PFF tracks “turnover worthy plays” by QBs which includes fumbles & baker has 9 turnover worthy plays with like 12 ints. The issue for Cleveland is more coaching than it is Baker. He’s playing with 0 confidence right now & it shows.

    I’m being 100% serious with those 2 posts. Even Skip and Shannon were talking down on Baker and the coaching. Odell doesn’t want to be there Timmy. Obviously he’s going to demand a trade. He’s starting one of those tantrums, as I predicted before the season started. He said he can’t get a ball thrown to him to save his life, which is a clear jab at Baker. You really think Odell wants to waste the last year or 2 in his prime with Baker? Odell wants to go to a team that has a solid qb. He’ll just sit out next season, until they do trade him. Baker doesn’t have excuses anymore. He has an elite rb and great wr Odell and solid wr Jarvis. The coaches can only do so much. The players have to execute on the field. Their only chances of winning games is when Chub takes a game over like he did against the ravens.

    And I’m literally a professional sport analysts Timmy. Want to discuss how you thought Tavarius Jackson was going to be some huge star qb? And you didn’t let go even after they moved on from him. I hope you’re not being serious with your recent post.

    yeah, Baker has had some bad breaks/unlucky bounces. It’s only his second season—so he has time to get some of these things corrected. And many of the core players on the Browns are young; so although this season is lost, they have time to fix things and hopefully do better in future seasons

    Congrats on the Dolphins on not going completely down the hole this season.

    Nati is the only hope now.

    their schedule up ahead is easier so it would not surprise me if him/the team started clicking a little bit. With kitchens at the head who knows though... they really have to just shake up that coaching staff in the offseason.

    yeah, but don't start getting too chummy with me Enigma, we play you guys this week :emoji_smiling_imp:

    this is the type of game the vikings typically lose. they're playing a team with a winning record. to make matters worse, its on the road. i could see this game going either way, but i'm definitely not that confident going into this game. i feel like dallas has played better defense over the last 2-3 weeks. ah well, the good news is that the vikings are pretty healthy besides Thielen likely missing another game.

    either way, i'm super excited for the game! :)
