Browns To Name Baker Mayfield Starter Monday

Great new
of Baker Mayfield. Kollman is a pretty good watchGreat new
of Baker Mayfield. Kollman is a pretty good watchAfter watching two different videos, obvious why Baker is starting and Taylor is relegated to the backup role. You can see now why the Bills gladly took a third for Tyrod. He couldn't have consistently been playing this badly in Buffalo, or the Bills wouldn't have sniffed the playoffs. The Jets game wasn't the only sub par performance by Taylor. Sheeze, he looked like the rookie, and Baker the established vet on Thursday night. Maybe he'll benefit sitting and watching, learning the offence while Mayfield starts.
PS- yup, Tyrod totally missed seeing at least two hot reads, and as a consequence, got killed for his inattention.

Tyrod was having one of his worst days ever and I still feel the second time down bell ringing was more of a Sonny Liston or a "No mas" kind of thing.

It sure kind of looked that way.. I gotta believe Haley or someone got in Hue's ear and said.. "Look.. We're not going anywhere with that retread.. Look what the kid just did..".. However... I'm not in the conspiracy theory camp.. I just think Baker was just that much better.

What are you guys expecting this week? Are you as confused as I am? I have a REALLY hard time believing a rookie is going to come into his first road start and do very well, BUT after seeing what I did last week, maybe he will? Jamal Adams of the Jets stated they didn't prepare for Baker at all, so you know the Raiders will DEFINITELY have a plan in place. The great news for Baker is that the Raiders don't appear to have much of a pass rush, and if you blitz Baker, you better get home. Anyway, what are you guys expecting, stat wise? I'll take a stab at it.
26-39 for 289 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT's, 1 fumble (hopefully not lost, lol). That's where I'm at right now. I'm expecting solid play, but I'm also expecting rookie mistakes (like he made Thursday, 1 fumble, 1 should-be pick). Neither cost us, but that's RARE in the NFL.
I don't have a final score prediction yet. I want to go back and watch the Raiders' last game in full before I make it. I know Derek Carr has been playing pretty darn well (for the most part), but he threw a costly pick against the Fins late in the game. It's also worth noting we're getting Ogbah back, and that's a VERY good thing for our pass rush, especially our 3rd down and long package, where we like to go Genard Avery outside, Garrett inside, Ogunjobi inside, Ogbah outside. You think Garrett inside is crazy? Nope. Gregg moves Garrett all over the place, and he's gotten sacks from everywhere on the line. DE Chris Smith filled in admirably for Ogbah, but Ogbah is especially nasty against the run, and sets the edge VERY well.

They should get Peppers involved on the offense as well as Tyrod Taylor- those dudes can move and make plays even though Baker is starting.

Ya, lets use our back up QB as a RB. That's smart.

Having a sub package that can utilize Taylor's mobility and his passing ability is not out of the question. Taylor is probably one of the top 3 fastest QBs in the league.

As someone said he ain’t in college now. The dude is hardly able to handle the job he has so why complicate things for him by trying to put them on offense

Oh really, Peppers hasn’t done anything as far as a punt or kick returner . Looks more like the next 1st round pick to get run out of here

It's looking like Stanton will dress as our backup this week.
As for prepping for Baker... good luck with that Chucky.
Sure they'll try to disguise coverages, blitzes, etc., but pocket awareness/mobility plus quick passes are the antidote.
I do expect them to spy him and try to hide the spy behind the melee of the OL/DL clashes, but if the spy can see Baker then Baker can see the spy.

And, as some QB said sometime "Great, put a spy on me, that means the defense will have one less person out their covering my receivers".

Did watch the Sunday Ticket shortcut of the Raiders - Dolphins game. The majority of Nelson's yards came on two big plays. Carr was steady, but I'm willing to bet he can be pressured. Beast Mode looks like Jerome Bettis at the end of his career, a short yardage bowling ball. Other than Gareon Conley, no one on their defense stood out. They're seriously missing Kalil Mack. Our guys should be open for Baker's passes. Willing to bet we can run on them too.

I did not know Sunday Tix broadcast shortcuts. Cool...
Raider D is not great. #31 in turnovers. #22 vs. the rush. #19 vs. the pass.
Carr has not looked good this year overall despite a very high completion percentage. So far he's thrown 2 TDs vs. 5 INTs. Had a good game Week2, but bad outings the other two weeks.
Lynch has 170 yards on 48 carries for a 3.5 YPC. Doug Martin is their #2 RB... better YPC at 4.4, but only 20 carries. Jalen Richards is their 3rd down RB... only 7 carries, but 18 receptions.

Browns Legend Jim Brown on Baker Mayfield: 'I Like Everything About Him'
Legendary Cleveland Browns running back Jim Brown is all-in on the Baker Mayfield hype train.
In an interview with TMZ Sports on Wednesday, Brown said, "He's a gunslinger, he can throw the ball, he's got a great attitude, he's young. I like everything about him."
After Cleveland selected Mayfield with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2018 NFL draft over Penn State running back Saquon Barkley, Brown seemed upset and said he had "no comment" on the pick.
Five months later, Brown admitted he may have been wrong to doubt the selection: "They didn't go with what everybody said, including myself. They went with what they thought was correct, and I really appreciate being able to say to them, 'I guess you were right.'"
Mayfield saw his first game action last week when veteran quarterback Tyrod Taylor exited the game against the New York Jets with a concussion.Cleveland was trailing 14-0 when Mayfield entered the game, but it went on to secure a 21-17 victory and its first win since 2016.
Mayfield went 17-of-23 for 201 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions and caught a successful two-point conversion.
Head coach Hue Jackson subsequently named him the starting quarterback.
The Browns are 1-1-1 and coming off an 0-16 season, but Brown believes they "absolutely" have a chance to win the AFC North.
Cleveland will look to take another step toward that goal Sunday when it faces the Oakland Raiders on the road.

They do if you ante up an extra $50 for the "Superfan" package, starting Monday morning. If you have nothing better to do with about 6 hours of your life, you can even watch the Cliff Notes version of every Sunday game.
Too bad Direct made it an app a couple seasons ago, instead of allowing it as a view option your your DVR. Me and a slew of other fans howled big time about that AT&T BS, to no avail. Sure, I'd rather watch football games on my smartphone instead of my 55" widescreen- NOT!!! Don't have a smart TV yet, so I have to watch shortcut games on my computer.
