  • sure wish I could have watch this game. I played Rashaad White of the Bucs. But Tucker has 3 tds instead, but I didn't play him because I thought White was the backup to Irving.

    Fantasy football can be so stupid. lol

    The scoring bonanza continues

    Josh Allen scores his fifth touchdown of the game on a five-yard keeper. Allen then misses on the two-point try, putting Buffalo ahead 37-32. Halfway through the fourth quarter, the Bucs and Bills are closing in on 700 combined yards of offense. With nine lead changes up to this point, the game could rest on whatever team holds the ball last.

  • By now baker and the bucs are looking kind of mid. But id take mid in a heartbeat.

    yep, but it is true that without Godwin, out, and Evans, IR,  that is two star wr's Baker is missing. And the Bill's Kincaid, out, is a big loss. The respective defenses - I don't know what happened to them.

    As big a Baker fan as I am.. I have moved on... This thread has outlived it's usefulness... I wish the kid all the success in the world for him and his family...

    So, this silly thread is still going because certain haters still hate and try to show off and bitch like maladjusted inner city schoolboys with a serious drug problem. Truth is, most of us are older now, and have lost loved ones over the years, and the old dedication to watching the games on tv has all too often lost it's luster. I think the primary reason is the dirtbag owners, and I wouldn't have steflunksi lead a boy scout troop on a 50 yard hike to a group camping area - they would get lost.

         I love the defense, but the rest - it must be seriously tough to have any confidence in the head coach and front office of this team, and I don't know how any player can be proud of this ownership.

    Inner City schoolboys?  Not suburb though right? Hmmm, what could we possibly be hinting at here? ? So far I haven't seen anyone hate any more than this below from you.  And there's even adorable insulting nicknames that every sane man in his mid 70s uses all the time.  Outside of that, we don't have to worry about you getting more repetitious than Rain Man or anything. You're doing terrific!

    Actually it was "maladjusted inner city schoolboys with serious drug problems".

    Got to hand it to cal, usually when people like him really want to drop a n-bomb but can't they just go to shorthand and use the term "thug", but this new term is almost poetic. Just rolls off one's tongue.

    Hi Tex, good to see you. Calling me Cal isn't an insult so if that's what you're going for.. anyway I just post this to underscore the fact that Haslem stefanski deepodasta and maybe even bury are idiots.Gue Jackson too. Also without a doubt I was right and the baker haters were wrong. The kid is still achieving comebacks against very good teams unlike anyone before Horseman of the Browns apocalypse have had under Center. Combine that with the assets we flushed down the toilet for Watson. Sorry to upset you guys. Well, not really.

    Sorry Steve hindsight is always 20\20.  FWIW, Baker tried to play hero ball with a bum wing, and he virtually tanked that season because of it. Fact. 

    Were the Browns wrong to dump him? Guess Carolina thought the same. LA didn't need his services either. Wound up at the Last Chance Saloon in Tampa Bay and a few years after the fact regained his #1 overall draft pick playing ability. So tell me Steve should the Browns have waited another three years for Mayfield to grow up? Many have said he needed to find some humility first. 

    Yeah Watson- worst trade in the history of the NFL shocking more haven't been fired because of it. With Depodesta leaving, I'm going to finger him as the guilty party, with a close second to Haslam for OK-ing that dumb of a trade.

    Thanks for noticing Orion...  I miss some of you guys more than others... It's the neurotic others that have driven me away.  Here's a little follow up.  I just don't get the continuing Baker love from some posters.  I'm not into the coulda, shoulda- but didn't. Baker hasn't played for the Browns in years. That he's playing well now for Tampa Bay- great. MHO the Mayfield lovers who STILL can't let it go are swallowing a huge mouthful of sour grapes, and we have NO idea how it would have turned out if we somehow had stuck with him.  

    I have more interest now in how Goff is doing with the Lions than Baker is doing with the Bucs.  

    And to our resident Josh Allen pumper... How many of Allen's games at Wyoming did you actually watch? Hmmm? If it was less than six, shut your pie hole. Blind squirrels find acorns once in a while.  Allen couldn't hit the broadside of a barn at 20 yards 75% of the time back then. FWIW, I could equally have been a pansy and said damn... We sure as shit should have drafted Pat Mahomes- who had EXACTLY the same questions coming out of college as Allen.  ?

    Well, back to bike riding and ignoring the crap that goes on here.

    Agree with almost all of this.

    But has Baker shown #1 overall value/ability, especially with Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson in that same draft? 

    Why would Depodesta be who you think is the guilty party for the Watson trade?

    I'll answer your last question first. regarding Depodesta... We'll never know for sure how much influence Paul had regarding trades or drafting. So if you want to say the trade for Watson was a collective organizational FUBAR, you won't get any disagreement from me.  🙂  

    Regarding the 2025 edition of Baker...  OK, if you twist my arm, I'm going to have to say TO DATE Allen and Jackson were better values in that draft. LOL Sam Darnold and Josh Rosen were not.  🙂 

    Now a little back story on myself... If you notice my sig line- one of me hobbies was mountaineering (now retired). To tout my own horn (a little bit) I've climbed the three highest peaks in Wyoming- Gannet Peak, The Grand Teton, and Fremont Peak.  So I have a soft spot in my heart for the state. I've visited the University of Wyoming campus in Laramie at least three times.  So I had more than a passing interest in that wunderkid Josh Allen when he played there. He was a very inaccurate cannon armed kid at the time. Reports were he could toss it 90+ yards in the air (unconfirmed). My feeling was a hard pass at the time.  

    Ah, Lamar Jackson...  Another (lucky for the Ravens) fluke. At the combine, teams wanted Jackson to try out for wide receiver, and run a 40 (he refused). I said at the time he was essentially a running back who incindentally was able to pass the ball.  His running ability was\is unquestioned, and he's now #1 with a bullet having amassed the most rushing yards by a quarterback in the history of the NFL. His passing ability was another story entirely. BUT thanks to his incredible athletic ability (and some mighty good coaching I might add) he's turned into a pretty good quarterback besides.

    But let me repeat that you're wrong about most of this but especially your first statement. It's not the players decision as to whether he goes on the field or sits on the bench. That's up to the head coach. If in fact Baker bullied stefanski and to putting him on the field that's odds to fansky. Which means he shouldn't be a head coach. And yes there are other indicators. Number two? Acquiescing to whoever stuck him with Watson. I know you'll understand a Beatles quote, take these broken wings and learn to fly. And if stefanski is the quarterback Whisperer he might look for a new moniker. He has s*** the bed with a string of quarterbacks since he ran Baker off. Brady bailed on the Buccaneers with the infrastructure started to crumble. Baker took the rains and keep them at least respectable. But if you haters are still going on about maturity I haven't seen that change much. Still gung ho tunnel vision team before everything attitude. And hindsight is absolutely 20/20. I think my plan to build around the coach of the year era quarterback would have paid off. At least better than anybody they've replaced him with. Because admit it that's where the slide started and earnest. Not as ridiculously as the Hue Jackson era but damn close.

    I always liked Goff.  I felt badly for him for what the Rams did to him...but they got their super bowl win.  My 2nd favorite team (distant 2nd) has always been Roman Gabriel and the Rams (and now Stafford and co.)...but I've been pulling for the Lions and Goff to do well since he was discarded to the Lions.

     Those winters can be Siberia-esque. 

     I think it's a rare win-win trade. The Rams got a fringe HoF QB and a Superbowl. The Lions got a top 15 QB and a ton of draft capital. 

     But we've seen in LA, and had glimpses in DET, that Goff can struggled badly, even with elite talent around him. And the Lions have elite talent.   So the Rams assessment that he did and may continue to hold them back, looks more vindicate with time. 

    That said, I'm happy he's in DET and I pull for my fellow NFC rust belt brothers.

    Good point - and it's probably a good time we start including the late emergence of Sam Darnold with that draft.  That turned out to be a very strong draft class - showing each QB had different obstacles to hurdle. Some more than others - depending on surrounding talent, offensive coaches in charge of their learning & development, and each QB's conceptualization of the playbook in tandem with how long it took him to be able to function and succeed at the speed of the NFL game (above and beyond all inevitable growing pains).
