I’m not sure what is being challenged by Taylor. Replay is getting ridiculous.
The Bengals have the 32nd ranked defense against the run; Nick Chubb is the league leader in rushing. So the question is," How many times will he get the ball? More than 10? How many times in the second half? Or will the genius Kitchens decide that his qb with an injured hand should pass 40 times?
Typical Choppy post.Great outcome. Bengals hold onto their lead for the #1 pick and Browns proved to everyone that there's no chance they win out to make the play-offs and will likely be stuck in mediocrity for years to come once Hunt and OBJ bolt this offseason.
So Baker is publicly criticizing the training staff for how they've handled OBJ's sports hernia? I'd love to have a week where just everyone shut the hell up and not give the press hounds something to grasp on to.
Shut up and concentrate on not throwing interceptions. He is totally preoccupied with all of the outside stuff, which is the sign of immaturity. The whole team, including the coach, is too focused on the outside stuff, which results in their not being able to play football. Too much drama, not enough professionalism.
I’m all for two pressers a week. Postgame and two days before the next game. Head Coach and three players, rotate the players.
Fred, or Baker ?I, for one, am sick of hearing his voice on the radio and television.
Fred, or Baker ?
Has there ever been a player less deserving of the endorsement dollars thrown Baker’s way this year?
I think the intent of the pass inference replay rule was to overturn egregious errors like occurred in NO. This was not egregious by any standard. So I understand why some people have an issue. Shoe on the other foot Browns fans would as well...as they should.Cincinnati reaction to the " no interception."

I have to be honest, I don’t recall those Brady Quinn endorsement deals, but yeah that might exceed the ridiculousness of Baker’s deals.Brady Quinn in his rookie year. Slipped big time on draft day, bench warmer who still had national endorsement deals with Subway and EAS to name a few. "Now I'm done!"
Well, to be fair, that overturn was complete bs.Cincinnati reaction to the " no interception."

EP you’ve got to be rooting for your team against the Browns. The only team the Bengals have any chance to catch is the Giants and they are not taking a QB in Round 1 two years in a row. So if it’s Burrows you want he will be there for the Bengals, probably with 3 wins.It was certainly not out of reason to call PI in real time, but that play goes uncalled as many times as not. Overturning on replay is crazy imo. I’m a bengals fan, but am very pleased to lose this game.

You aren’t really a Browns fan, are you ?Actually both. They say the same thing every day, but I am mostly sick of hearing Mayfield. Big mouth - little result.
You aren’t really a Browns fan, are you ?
I am frustrated with his poor performance, forcing the ball or holding it too long instead of throwing it away, but it’s all from the point of being a try hard. He is obviously not the product of good coaching right now. My guess is that he’s not getting it, but I guess it’s possible he just refuses to accept it.
As I think about it, nothing that he has said is exceptionally unreasonable by any stretch, though. Perhaps I missed what has really gotten under your skin ? He is a quarterback, so he needs to be confident. He has always been a little cocky, so I would expect him to continue to be so. Should he be groveling and apologizing daily, in your mind ? I am pretty sure he’s far more disappointed in his performance than you are. There is definitely Baker saturation in the advertising he has done and how often it airs.
I’m guessing every time you see or hear him you are reminded of disappointment ? I kind of expected nine and seven, or even eight and eight, so maybe I’m just less disappointed ?
