The problem is with the fan base in general. They can't seem to wrap their minds around the fact that a healthy Baker played well and took us to the playoffs in 2020 while an injured Baker could not in 2021. Some act like he didn't even have an injury in evaluating his play last season. They never seem happy without a QB controversy in their life.
I think the FO has made their intentions clear. They plan to give Baker the 2022 season to prove whether the 2020 Baker we saw is the real thing. There is no credible evidence he is not. Unless of course some continue to pretend that his injury didn't significantly impact his play negatively in 2021. And you will continue to have those people.
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

We were one non-call on DPI in GB and one ridiculous DPI call (against us v Chargers) away from possibly winning the division...with a beat up QB throwing to me and Tabber. I think Baker will be fine...here or elsewhere.

This off-season is hilarious and the legal tampering hasn’t even started.

Didn't the Colts get Wentz off the FA scrap heap? If I'm remembering correctly, good for them.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

Garoppolo is for sure getting traded. Watson too if the legal stuff is resolved prior to the draft. Anyone else?

Yes it would be. That's why the confusion since he's already the named starter going into the 2022 season.

Yeah Jimmy G is probably the next domino to fall. And many teams are still in the market. SF is in a pretty nice spot to get some value with multiple suitors.

remember when a lot of us thought Wentz was that dude?

With actual evidence as to a rational reason why they are telling the truth, yes. 2020 Baker is all you need to see to believe them. Trying to use an injured 2021 season not to believe them is fools gold.

The best part is that Kingsbury didn’t have to lie. The Cardinals had the first pick and everyone knew they were going to take Kyler Murray the second he was hired.
