Haha.

Wishful thinking!

Maybe Thielen.

I don’t think Kirk is anywhere close to special. But he is a solid QB. And when in Washington, he put up pretty good numbers with a similarly talented WR corps to what Cleveland currently has, and with much less potent running game.

Kirk is also pretty good in play action.

I think he would be an unexciting, but major upgrade over what Baker was last year. Admittedly, that is a low bar.

I don’t think this trade would really help either team get where they are trying to go, but I do believe Kirk’s skill set would be a pretty good fit to the type of offense Cleveland wants to run.
I think many QBs would be a major upgrade over 2021 Baker as you kind of alluded. I'd like to see Baker get the chance to play with just one elite WR before dealing him for a guy who didn't accomplish much with 2.....and, sure, not all of that is his fault, of course, as far as wins.

I can see how that would happen. What kinda pizza's you gonna be making?

Probably a pepperoni with anchovies on half, pepperoni and sausage and either a Margherita or a New York style cheese pizza.

Good luck.

He was horrible as a HC with the Raiders. Major downgrade from Payton.

Once again i forgot people can't improve. You must be the same exact person you were 30 years ago. Impossible for people to grow

Was there some HOF coach there for the Saints to hire? Whoever they hired would obviously look like a downgrade. They have a good roster

with a question mark at one of the kind of important positions.

I happen to agree Allen as good a hire as most would have been.

At the least, he should be unlikely to veer very far away from what Payton established and will probably keep most of the staff...so there should be some continuity.

The question will be, can he bring out the best in Jameis (or at least help him keep the mistakes down). If he can do that...the Saints should at least be able to make the playoffs.

Yep. I think he should hire a smart offensive mind to focus on offense

I don’t know much about him, but the fact that Tom Brady told him to go F himself says he is alright by me.

Also is it true that Sean Payton retired because he’s mortified that he’s been immortalized on Netflix by being played by Doug Heffernan?

I love the Bengals story but it is hard to see them winning on Sunday.

They need bad Stafford to show up IMO to have a real chance.

Idk how they slow down Beckham and Kupp then don't know how that oline stop Donald and the boys from living in the backfield

For those that scoff at girls basketball (just about all of you), I question how some of you are able to look at yourselves in the mirror at night.

Tonight, my first Q&A recipient played in a sectional game and got her 1000th point, with two broken wrists.

It was actually rather easy to look at myself in the mirror tonight
