Haven't you heard? He's 25 going on 45, already at his peak or even washed up, since he's in his 3rd season and nearly 2 years older than Lamar, 1 year older than Allen, slightly older than Mahomes, nearly Goff's age, etc. /s
He was bad today and I'm starting to get concerned that, even at his peak, he won't be enough.
That said, I don't think it is fair to blame him for a ton today. 99% of QBs would have struggled against the pressure he faced today.
I'll say this, his eyes dropped way too fast today, he was anticipating the rush instead of looking down the field.
It was a terrible day for him, no doubt about it. My faith is fully shaken and, I have to admit, I'm starting to look to see what QB's might be available to the Browns in this year's draft.

Might have to consider what Baker’s trade value is or is going to be at the end of the season. The Jets are doing the same thing with Darnold. I wish Jerry Jones was dumb enough to trade Dak for Baker. Maybe we can sell him on some feel good Texas homecoming story.
I think berry and Company want to draft their own guy but they are going to let baker device for them this season.. baker still has 10 more games and can turn it around but man he needs to start showing better
It's definitely not worth it.
The only route to replacing Baker is with a rookie, otherwise you are severely limiting the Browns ceiling over the next several years.
I’ve said it before and I’ll echo it even more strongly after today’s performance.
I am so glad that we have a Browns braintrust who I feel confident in evaluating Baker this season and reacting accordingly.
I’m also glad that we have a complete offense around Baker which makes it far easier to determine if he is the problem. In year’s past you could absolve a QB by saying they didn’t have weapons or an OL or a good play caller...not the case here.
I fully trust that Stefanski will be able to give the thumbs up or down to Berry by season’s end.
One thing that doesn’t get mentioned enough is that they didn’t choose Baker.They’re not married to him. That’s why I don’t think they will slow roast this thing after the season if Baker is not it. I think if they move on they will move on quickly.
That’s not true. It’s more likely that we aren’t even in position to draft one of the top QB’s available. We don’t have to force a rookie. We can still sign a veteran FA or trade for a guy.
