If Odell averages 3 targets were game and they score 42/game I am perfectly fine with him being a decoy. Baker-Odell wasn't the problem, it was their defense and fucking Joe Woods
Yes...I really hope he tells them this week it's better to stay with their guys then let them run free. That was horrible coaching. Never mind they were 4-5th string DBs in many cases.

Serious question....is there anything a defense/defender could do you'd actually blame the D/defender?

For some out there Mayfield can't even tie his shoes right. He could go 25-26 for 299 & 4 TD's and some would complain that he didn't complete all his passes and didn't throw for 300 yards.

My opinion of him is slowly changing. He's definitely not the complete jackass he was a few years ago.
I mean, sure, would be nice to finish off a game like last one but the guy did lead 2 TD drives to take the lead and D gave both leads away.

If it turns out "all" he can do is play really well for 55-57 minutes and with avg. D we don't need late game heroics I'd take that.

Ouch. Chubb out. Guessing this was why they had Hunt in late last week.

Zach Ertz traded to the Cards for a 5th rounder.
He was a great Eagle, an absolute beast in the Super Bowl season. I’m kind of jealous because my Birds aren’t his problem anymore.

People seem to forget that before Mayfield got to the Browns ('15, '16 & '17) the team won a total of 4 games. His rookie year he went 6-7. That's a helluva improvement for a team that was the door mat of the league since '99.

Correct...and not like I wouldn't have wanted to see him come through in the 2 losses late.

Odell dropping an easy 4 down and 2 catch IN THE RED ZONE certainly didnt help.

Nope. SAS told me Baker's shit. You can't bring stats to the debate.

Having said that, Baker's actually a pretty solid QB. He's definitely evolved in a short time-frame. I couldn't initially stand him. Now he's grown on me.

Dude is fun to watch. Not necessarily always for the right reasons (mostly for the right reasons though)...but always fun to watch.

Truth be told before, during and after the 2019 season and into 2020 I didn't like him either. Needed to shut up and play. Helped he had grownups around, I think, to hold him accountable and he has definitely grown up himself.

lol

So I guess Myles Garrett decorated his front yard for Halloween with headstones of some NFL quarterbacks.

Freaking Awesome.

I saw that the other day and laughed. Hell might have been yesterday I saw it. Don't remember. Kinda too windy to do much outside right now. So I'm getting unsober a little early this Fried Day.

Just saw it on Cowherd a little earlier. It was done well too. They look real. lol

A little unsober myself at the moment.

What you enjoying? I got some wax from my dispensary last week and it was a rarity for me. A sativa leaning hybrid called Flo. Talked to the employees where I shop and was assured it's a 60/40. Anything more sativa leaning than that would ruin a great day.
