Great season by Barkley, but Baker is the clear choice. Best rookie season by a QB ever.

Well Z- turns out there's LOTS of different ROTY awards. Baker is almost certainly a lock for the Pepsi one considering it's based on fan voting, and he won ROTW way more than anyone else. He should get several- but if you peruse the lists, running backs have taken the honor a fair share of times...

It is always easier for rookie RBs than rookie QBs. Their position is so much simpler, and with that ease, a talented one can come in and perform at a high...be it more instinctual level than a QB usually can right away.
It is far, far, far harder for a QB to excel as a rookie than it is for a RB

Larry,
Hopefully THIS works. I have one hell of a time posting pics. Pic of the shirt I couldn't pass up at the airport when we put Grandson on the plane.

Baker set the all time record for rookie TD passes, and he did that compared to having just 14 picks. Furthermore, he didn't even start the first 3 games, and he lost his head coach and offensive coordinator. And frankly, it might not be fair, but Baker did it in CLEVELAND. A place where QBs go to die. A place where nobody has succeeded. A place that evokes laughter and snickers across the world for so many painful reasons.
Fuck you, Tallahassee. Aside from this team having been so bad...what else is it that you think there is to evoke laughter and snickers about Cleveland for? I have been to Tallahassee....and I saw nothing there that gives it an edge over Cleveland.
This is not to take anything away from Saquon, as his season was spectacular and he's also known to be a high character individual worthy of winning accolades and prestige. He's going to be exceptional for a LONG TIME. But you know what? He's still not a QB. Might not be fair, but that's how it is in the NFL. Additionally, think of the players that Baker elevated this year. Look at Breshad Perriman for example. A player cut by 2 different teams in the same year. How about Callaway having a solid rookie season, and Rashard Higgins continuing to improve? Njoku increasing his stats and so on. Baker made so many players better, and while that's a function of his position, it's still incredibly fun to see.

What the heck are you talking about, bro? I didn't mean the CITY of Cleveland, I meant the Browns. They evoked laughter and the like. Why would I make fun of a freaking city that I'm FROM? Relax man.

I bought a Baker jersey right after the draft, promising my "Baker doubter" friends that I wouldn't wear it until he started. They countered with the statement that he had better win. The 1st game I wore it to was the Jets' game...Just had a hunch!!

Don't get me wrong- I love Baker, but he's got to make a couple Pro Bowls before I'm spending the $$$ on one.
The Couch jersey gathering dust in my basement is reason enough. That said, Baker has already shown 5X more than Tummuh ever did....

LOL, we got BIG deals on Carlos Hyde and Kenny Britt jerseys.... Johnny Football ones probably for the price of the material... The thought just occurred to me- if you know someone who's good at tailoring, you could pick up one of those old gamedays, take the numbers and name off, find some suitable material at JoAnn Fabrics, and have an authentic gameday for 20% of the cost of a real one....

Mike

I have an orange Baker, a brown Ward, & will have a white Chubb before TC. It bugs me that the Browns don't post the uniform colors a day or 2 before the games, although last home game I wore both & reversed them at the half. Just a little added fun.
