That call was weak but it could have gone either way. The Browns dominated all game up front. Baker could have put the game out of reach a couple times but just sucked. That’s definitely good to see. He was way more accurate against us last year though.
I’d probably take Big Ben over Baker to be honest. He has some bad games, but he balls out as well. I’m looking forward to Mayfield getting paid and the Browns offensive line/defense falling apart.
I like Burrows potential best if he stays healthy.

Ben is on the Decline... But one should never write him out
I disagree. Take away their good run game and play action off of it, Baker is average at best.

And Ben throws a terrible pick to seal the loss!

Between SB 33 and 55 you have only 2 running QBs that have won SBs. John Elway and Russell Wilson. Rogers is 10th all time in rushing yards for QBs but Im not going to try to pretend he's a rushing QB and Brady is 10th all time in attempts by a QB but, lol just no.
so, point taken. He still really fun to watch.
I can't argue with that, but in a vacuum, not taking into consideration the strength of the team around him, Lamar is the one I least look forward to playing in the here and now. It seems like he absolutely abuses this team every time they play. I get that we had a crap defense most of the time, but we still beat Ben and even Baker each at least once with the same crap defense. Lamar took away all of the good feelings from the end of season wins last year when they came in and blasted the Bengals.
Yeah, he's skinny, and yeah he needs to get more consistent in the passing game to prolong his career. I'd argue that he has far less talented pass catchers than the other two, but that's what it is. He makes big mistakes at the end of close games, but his games vs the Bengals are never close.
I think the Bengals can beat both of the other guys. It will take some proving for me to believe that they have an effective plan for Jackson. He may or may not deteriorate physically due to his playing style in a few years, but what happens between now and when that time comes? From what I've seen, he just plain kicks our asses.

I see no lies.
Also, while I do think age is a factor with Ben, I also think he was incredibly overrated due to the championships he won with an incredible team around him. He and Tomlin haven't accomplished squat over the last decade, after Chin's team fell apart.
He and Eli are going to be 2 of the most average QBs in the HOF. Especially Eli, but Ben too for sure.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

Baker had an off day by his recent standard, but the pig is something like 2-8 in his last 10.
For good measure, I attached a picture of how Pig Ben sees Logan Wilson below....
Get it?

I don’t see the picture. Are you saying Dirty Burger cant see Wilson?
Baker is on a great offense with a great offensive line. If Ben had that, this wouldn’t be a comparison. If baker had Bens line, same deal. Good qbs can struggle on bad teams. It takes a special kind of qb to struggle on a great team.

And to think this is not even Burrow at 100%. Most people that have had similar injuries say it takes a full year to get completely back to normal.
Also, Kyler Murray is playing at an MVP level right now. Once Brady and Rodgers retire, this league is going to belong to the young guys like Burrow, Murray, Herbert, Allen, etc.

Yes, Piggy has a terminal case of "Linebackerinvisibleitis". And, no, Pig Ben wouldn't be doing the same as Baker. He misses wide open WRs when it is blocked up, has zero mobility, and zero arm strength. Pig is ready to be made in to bacon.
