    Baker is the QB, guys. He’s earned it. He’s not the best in the league, but he’s our guy. 

    what makes u think he cant be ?

    I think he’s too one dimensional right now. He struggles too much when he doesn’t move out of the pocket.

    I think that is mostly because with OBJ hurt, he only had one wr, Jarvis Landry, who he can depend on getting open

    quick enough. They double on Landry, it gives Higgins a chance. Schwartz should very well change all that.

  • I don't want Rogers.  He spends too much time making commercials instead of learning the playbook.  On the other hand, do the trade, so we can have Brady and Rogers in the super bowl.

    Depends on how you want to define "dynasty"... I suppose the Patriots come closest recently. But does Brady have the strongest arm? Nope. Most mobile? Nope. 

    Let's win just ONE before we start the dynasty talk.  🙂

  • It would kill me to see the Packers have 30 years of QB play with Favre, Rodgers, Baker. I'd do it if we got picks from them. 

  • Rodgers is in the twilight of his career and he has taken a beating over the years. Nobody knows how many years he has left or how long it will take him to get acclimated to our team, the clock is ticking.  Brady is an exception of the rule, NOT the rule. Baker is nowhere near as good as Rodgers but he has more value, more potential. Having a Super Bowl would be nice but something that means more to me is culture change, not having to deal with a decade or more of perpetual losing. Baker just gave us a win against our mortal rivals in the playoffs, I'm pretty happy with that.

  •  Joe Montana won 4 SB's and was shown the door for Steve Young.  Why is Baker untouchable?  He's just young.  And he'll never be Young.  Or Rodgers.  Baker is probably maxed out and his talent is below Mahomes and Josh Allen.  Rodgers with this core roster could easily win one SB or more. 3 in a row?  Maybe!

    Baker isn't untouchable... But please just give up the Rodgers infatuation- it's not happening. Rodgers is 12 years older than Baker- for starters. He's going to be long out of the league while Mayfield is still playing.... You have no idea if Baker is maxed out either. The number of QBs who didn't hit their stride until their late 20s- or later- is pretty long. Jim Plunkett immediately comes to mind. 

    There's only two QBs in the NFL I would consider making a swap for- that's Josh Allen and Pat Mahomes- and respectively- they're both untouchable. Baker is pretty much in that category too, in 2021 and 2022. He'd have to seriously regress for the Browns to give up on him. AND YOU DON'T NEED THE GOAT (OR HIS FIRST COUSIN) TO WIN A SUPER BOWL...   Very mediocre guys like Trent Dilfer, Mark Rypien, Doug Williams, Jim McMahon, Jeff Hostetler, and latest career backup Nick Foles got their rings. Brady didn't so much "win" his last SB- the Buc's defense brought Mahomes back to earth. It's a TEAM game guy.

  • This thread is still goin' eh?  Sportswriters trying to keep busy in May.

    At 37, I guess you could get 4 or 5 super bowl runs out of him, if you thought he could play to a high level into his 40's.  But you'd have to have a sense that Baker is not going to be very good QB.  As a GM, that's putting your neck out there.

  • The assertion that Rodgers on this roster equals instant SB is a strawman argument.. "this roster" must drop in talent by 3,4 players to shoehorn Rodgers' salary under the cap.

    Also, each draft pick from CLE sent to GB as part of the trade makes our roster even worse in future years.. relative to the rest of the league who will be using their picks to improve while Cleveland does nothing.

    Will you just return to  Earth from LaLa land? Brady has NEVER, I repeat-  NEVER played for a buck a year. It's not Rocket Science to find Tom will make $10 MILLION BUCKS+ this year. And that's because his wife probably makes more money than he does.  🙂 Unsympathetic laid it out for you. Who you going to cut/trade to clear $30+ million of cap room? 

    On top of that, it's also one of the reasons Rodgers is pouting and wants out of Green Bay.  His measly $33 million only puts him at #12 on the salary scale. (Guess State Farm isn't paying him enough for those commercials. ) You think he's going somewhere else and work cheap? Just a ploy on his part to get his pay upgraded.
