1 Everything is fine

10 Fire Ballard Tank Season 

 

1 to 10

Where are you at

on that scale of 1-10, I’m at -7.2537, yes negative 7.2537...

 

not because I think everything is fine, but because honestly, in the grand scheme of things, I’m gonna root for them whether they have Peyton manning at the helm or Sam or Curtis or whoever. And because we’re on he brink of ww3 and frankly, worrying about who the colts get to unscrew themselves, is so low on my concern list, it really doesn’t matter to me. 
 

that said, I still reserve the right to vomit if we get Mariota, Winston, or Jimmy G. And I reserve the right to have to fight the urge to vomit if we go for Baker or Ryan.

Exactly, so why anyone would have a strong opinion against Mayfield makes no sense.

I have been doing my Diamond painting today. I have been.  I always try and do it a couple hours a day because it always is relaxing. I have had some other stuff going on in my life that has been kind of stressful lately. Makes me mad colts have to be so stressful because it usually is fun to talk about them. But right now it isn’t.

10 Fire Ballard Tank Season 

 

1 to 10

Where are you at

Definitely a 10!

Ok, maybe a 1.

Nawww, 10!

Psssh, it's a 1.

(Ok, 10....)

[CR91]

I'm not advocating for Baker, but he did almost beat Mahomes and Herbert and had the browns off to a 3-1 start which could have been 5-0 if the defense didn't let Mahomes and Herbert do Mahomes and Herbert things

[danlhart87]

Coldplay tour starts tonight so I'm distracted 

[John Hammonds]

I want Baker Mayfield.

Just so I can see a commercial where he fondly locks up his Cleveland stadium "house", and the gets the keys to his new Indianapolis stadium "house".

Trading for Baker Mayfield- 6.5

Trading a 3rd for Baker Mayziel- 7.2

Trading a 2nd for Jaker Manziel- 7.6

Trading a first for Johner Manziel- 8.5

Trading for him and extending him- 10

So true. I'm sure you know someone who roots for a terrible franchise.

 

I have a SD Padres fan in the family. No conversation about baseball has ever gone into championship aspirations... Lol

Long time Cubs  fans have nothing to more to  learn about that particular subject.  The Pads and Steve Garvey was the first heart ripper when I was a preteen lol.

Hopefully.  They have been talking for a week.

[pgt_rob]

Maybe if we get enough forum members to say Derek Carr 3x really fast we can still land him.

He mentioned some how they have to find a way  to get to Ryan’s agent without it being  tampering.  Otherwise Falcons have to grant them the request to talk to him. Remember Stafford would probably have been a colt  had Mcvay not bumped into Stafford in Cabo.

I'm not sure I understand all of that, as Ryan's under contract.

 

Anyway, the sense I get from Holder and from things coming out of Atlanta is the deal was done, so maybe it can be salvaged.  Perhaps Atlanta will just decide to move on and do the deal anyway.

Adams will revoke his contract and go running back to Rodgers

None of them are long term solutions  In essence you are getting the same thing in all of them and none of them are good enough to get you to where you want to be... the question is how much you would pay for bandaid and is it worth having slightly better bandaid for the price you are going to pay? 

It’s not worth the price when the price is both draft picks and cash. And if the issue at hand is that Ballard wants to stop putting a band-aid on the QB situation, maybe it’s not even worth signing a bridge QB at all.

Mayfield will probably end up in Seattle

If he isn’t a good QB then what does it matter where he’s traded ? See…the Browns being ridiculous.

I don’t know, I think getting Baker kind of takes us out of drafting a QB for a while.

Baker only has one more year on his contract.   We’d have to come to terms on a new deal if put them franchise tag on him for a year or two if need be.   
 

Id like to believe you’re right and hope things go well.   But I don’t think I’d bet much on that.   I’ll try to be optimistic, but things could get weird in a year or two.

It’s just them saying they aren’t getting what they want from   him. If that is true. That guy is all over place usually.

One thing they are saying on this Twitter spaces was Ballard and Reich have to sit him down and tell him that this is not a place to get comfortable. Your going to have to earn a extension. You haven’t earned anything here yet.

[adubb84]

 

Should have stayed away lol. Came back to a bunch of arguments and disagreements, 60% of it not even about football anymore.  Baker is really driving this fan base apart. 
 

Ballard - please help!

Remember, Seattle wants him too.   So there’s competition.   That typically raises the price.   PLUS, Seattle has the advantage of being in the NFC, away from Cleveland,  and that works against us. 
 

Cleveland is not going to do us a favor.  They’re going to make the best deal for them and we will have to hope the price isn’t too terrible.
