That said, if he can be content with what he is, he can be a good long-term journeyman quarterback and have a nice career of it. If he thinks he is a guy who is going to get a five-year deal to be someone’s starter, it’s a different story. He can definitely be a Brian Hoyer though if he has the right perspective.

Didn't see much rolling out, if he took off it was upfield. He is also leading the league with his QB rating on 3rd down and 2nd in the NFL with his rating under pressure. Both surprising considering how he played here under those circumstances so maybe there is growth. His air yards are way down and his amount of time in the pocket is 2.0 flat which the lowest of his career. His sack rate is also great (4th) considering, so it seems like he is getting coached up over there and is receptive to it. He is basically a game manager for them but with their offensive line you pretty much have to do it that way to stay competitive and to keep your QB healthy. I think he may earn himself a chance to start somewhere next year. 2 years ago it seemed like there were 25 good QBs in the league and his chances were few. Now it seems like there are 8-10 good QBs and everyone else is replaceable. But I get it, the worse Baker looks the better we look I guess. And vice/versa. So I understand the agenda even if it doesn't really matter to us fans. Really only matters for the front office evaluations. Fans had no hand in the move.

In the playoffs do not remember did you say the defense was going to carry this team to the playoffs? If so then I apologize Did you predict that Mayfield would be a above average qb at any point where were you when he had a 103 rating?

cortes02 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 I would have liked to have seen the Browns take a chance on Chase Young for a 3rd rounder. I'm guessing they didn't do it due to Young needing to be signed long term to a big contract. Peace!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie man Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Watching this Chiefs Miami game I think Steve Spagnolo is a good comparison to what Schwartz can be for us. This is the best defense theyve had since hes been there. They're getting better over time. He's been there for a minute too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tampa lives in the 6-9 win range apart from every 20 years whe they get hot for 3 seasons. Next time they win a few games will be 2039 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
