How many nfl guys do you see get in shape in June to let it go to sh!t by August? You usually see the lazy guys being lazy in May and June and coming to mini camps sloppy and than start doing stuff in July. Best example was that DT from Baltimore. He was suppose to have a huge year coming up because it was a contract year and then Dude came to the Mjni camp over weight by like 25lb but came to training camp looking fine. I just don’t see how BF% being an issue this year Edited June 14, 2020 by buno67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flabby, grumpy, apathetic, disinterested, surly with stupid questions...the list goes on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) Baker is built like Brett Favre. Favre wasn’t exactly a physical specimen (not including his God gifted arm strength). I think Baker is built the way he is to absorb more punishment, as crazy as that sounds. It’s why a Big Ben is indestructible despite being pudgy. As long as Baker can move around, it’s fine.

Baker was out of shape in a bad way. It’s ok to have some weight on like the Manning’s had but baker looked sloppy and fatigued. He as falling all over himself and had no balance. Some of his sacks he took last year last year looked like he just slipped. He wasn’t doing that the year before when he was in shape.

He has been hurt a lot in his career but he also had a mediocre line at best early on and held on to the ball forever so he took a lot of punishment.

Some of his sacks he took last year last year looked like he just slipped. He wasn’t doing that the year before when he was in shape. Yeah I don't know how we watched different seasons. Not saying Baker didn't have a little bit of a belly but stumbling over himself? He got plenty of exercise rolling to his right 20 times every week. The problem with Baker last year was that he was never comfortable. It sometimes stays with QBs for the rest of their career when they go through a season where they can't trust their line. I think Baker is mentally strong enough to overcome it, if not it's time to start looking for a QB. I have zero worries about him physically, seeing ghosts would be my biggest concern right now. I watched Bernie for many years and that went well. We've all seen Weeden and that didn't but those are QBs that move like baby giraffes, Baker is a plus athlete at the position, including last year, he just isn't and won't be Lamar Jackson.

FGK Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 16 hours ago, Kiwibrown said: A size mismatch maybe not speed. Maybe quickness. You bring out the two RBs, get the defense to bring on a big sub package (base 3-4 or 4-3, or even a 4-4 or 3-5). Then swing Hunt out of the backfield into the slot. You're now forcing the D to change their coverage by sliding the safety into man over him, or by putting a LB out on him. If you go with the LB, that's a speed mismatch. If you slide the safety, it creates a hole OBJ/Hooper/Njoku/Landry can exploit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
