Bring it Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 6 hours ago, K-GunJimKelly12 said: That was probably the best first game performance by a rookie QB I have ever seen. Which means he has no where to go but down! He was hot for sure! Still can’t shake the feeling that they will regret taking Mayfield #1. But definitely could be wrong! He may get added to that very large heap of bust picks behind Brown headquarters. Sadly OBD has a big heap behind their’s too! 48 minutes ago, PeterDude said: The big question is, is Hue Jackson as racist as McDermott for replacing Tuh-Rod with a white QB? No because he isn’t a white coach!! (Sarcasm) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aristocrat Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 He was throwing in tight windows and should have had better stats if his guys didn’t drop balls. Outside of the Williams hit I was a fan of Landry and anyone who said he wasn’t worth the contract is eating crow right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bills Blog Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Why do so many people call Mayfield "Baker"? Seriously, why is this a thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that was with mediocre QB play Steelers yes, but the NO one been to tie the game not win it. I am going say the Browns finish 7-8-1 and they throw a parade for them ?

jaybee Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 This whole Jr high was saying the same thing about Darnold after week 1. He's looked pretty bad ever since. Once there's game film things change. But...do keep the knee-jerk reactions coming. They are fun to laugh at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's surrounded by weapons and couldn't have had a better debut with 200 yards in essentially a half of football. The three QB's I were banging on and on about the last three years were Goff, Mahomes and Mayfield. Glad to say I was right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Pump the brakes. I think Hue is in way over his head. If Bowles and the Jets didn't turtle up on offense last night as soon as they got up 14 (or if the Browns were playing a team with a real offense), they win that game going away even with Baker's spark. The Browns will likely be favored in Oakland next weekend, though the Raiders will likely be desperate and have that game circled as their chance to break into the win column. Once you get past that game I'm not sure the Browns will be favored in a game the rest of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prissythecat Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Its a bit premature to declare Mayfield as the next greatest thing. Looks promising based on spot duty . But Leys see how he does as starter when there is defensive game plan in place for him . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's one thing that Bills fans know about, it's "not exactly a high caliber franchise" since they've been cheering for one every football season for the last 20 years. 6 hours ago, Albany,n.y. said: Mayfield will have to be MVP to overcome Hue's coaching and get Cleveland a playoff spot. Coaching is still huge in the NFL and the Browns have the league's worst coach. In your opinion. His teams have hung tough both last year and this so far, despite all the losses, and that's impressive. His teams have been well prepared. He's smart enough to hire two first rate coordinators. Coaches have different styles, and Hue's style may fit today's players -- especially younger players -- better than other some coaching styles. For the first time in his tenure in Cleveland, he's got talent on both sides of the ball. 1 hour ago, aristocrat said: He was throwing in tight windows and should have had better stats if his guys didn’t drop balls.

Bills fans have been brainwashed into thinking no WR is worth the going rate for top proven vets for their position. Well, now they've got their potential franchise QB and he has crap for a receiving corps. Edited September 21, 2018 by SoTier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest K-GunJimKelly12 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 (edited) The Browns are now my second favorite team. I was very high on Baker in college and watched pretty much every one of his games his senior year. He is a great player and competitor. Everything you would want in a QB. He was simply fantastic last night 17-23 for 201 yards in just over a half. I remember 3 easy catches that were dropped also. Pretty much every pass was where it needed to be and he threw with touch and anticipation. Mayfield is going to be a great one. I'm glad he went to a fan base that is as passionate as the Browns. If Hue can get out of his own way, they could be a good team this year. 4 minutes ago, SoTier said: In your opinion.

Talking about them "hanging tough" during an 0-16 season as a credit to Hue is laughable. Edited September 21, 2018 by K-GunJimKelly12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hue can get out of his own way, they could be a good team this year. I totally agree with your assessment of Mayfield. I'm usually very reluctant to jump on the bandwagons of young QBs because so many fail to continue to develop and become true franchise QBs, but Mayfield's performance against the Jets was absolutely amazing. I've never seen any rookie QB -- or any QB in his first start -- come into a game and simply take it over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hue can get out of his own way, they could be a good team this year. He's got the goods. Quick release, gamer mentality, great arm. The pocket presence will develop in time - he had a few bail outs with penalties and luck. He'll make some mistakes here and there, but it doesn't seem like its going to phase him. Good for them. Now hopefully Josh Allen can start exhibiting some of the same stuff. 9 hours ago, Seanbillsfan2206 said: Mayfield is the real deal. Defense is legit. Browns will win the North Tough division. Considering 2 of KC/Den/LAC probably make it, they're probably playing for 1 wildcard in that division. Their schedule does them no favors either, as they don't get to play some of the weaker teams in the AFC, and the NFC south is pretty good so far this year. Their defense looks improved, and Mayfield was the shot in the arm that their offense needed. But they tied pitt when they probably should have won... and lost to NO when they probably should of won. A team making the playoffs off of a 0-16 season would probably need those games to go their way much like we did with tampa/atl/kc last year. Games we won in the 4th quarter.
