I was on the Mayfield train…

Unfortunately I was also...however I will say I'm happy to admit I wasn't as bad as many because I had Allen 2nd when many had Rosen at #1 or Darnold lol. I had Allen above Darnold and Rosen. 

 

In any event, so many had it wrong from fans to majority of media. Mayock(?) I believe it was was one of the few that was high on Allen

Mel Kiper had Allen rated as the top QB.

Lol, obviously top priority for Bengals, no surprise there. But man the Browns are a real piece of work....I imagine their fans emotions are all over the place. In one hand, they probably like, "knew it wouldn't take long for Browns to screw everything up again".....

 

Then maybe , "one decent season getting to 2nd round of playoffs giving just a small taste of success and finally future looks bright was too much" 

 

It was tough being a Bills fan for along time, but man the Browns may be worse for sure at this point lol

 

Hang in there Browns fans!!

I think it's a generational thing.  I'm not a Boomer but close, I'm a Gen Xer and for some young people, things don't happen, things aren't real until they are posted on social media.  The term "Facebook Official" comes to mind about dating.

 

For Baker the idea of not commenting on something like this on social media is anathema.  Kind of like Cole with his COVID stance on Twitter.  I personally feel no need to share details of my life with strangers on the internet.  I'm not saying one view is right and one is wrong, it's just one of the big differences between generations where one grew up with rotary dial phones and one grew up cutting their teeth on iPhones. 

I think you make a good point, but I also think it is more than that.  Baker has always had a sense of self entitlement.  I think generally there is an over abundance of that in our current social structure.  Not sure of exactly how we got there, and I certainly would not assert that it is necessary representative of a particular generation, but I would assert that it is all too prevalent in today's society.  Taking responsibility for one's own success and failure and actions seems to be a quaint anachronistic concept anymore.  That is Baker in my opinion.  Why not just recognize your part in the situation (he has played poorly after all) , keep your feelings to yourself, take the high road and work toward getting what you want.  I really do not care how he "feels" about anything, but I do now think he a bigger jerk than I thought before, despite the fact that Browns behaved rather badly here as well.   I am really happy he is not our problem as he will never be an adequate leader IMO.

Well he's understandably upset but I think he will have no choice but to play. Unless he's pissed enough to hold out.

I'm getting the feeling that Houston is gonna end up being unable to trade Watson...again.

Actually I wouldn’t doubt it Watson decided to sit this season and wait for a better team to offer him. 

[Big Turk]

Browns acting like little b!tches and deny the request. They are the ones who caused the issues by actively and openly trying to get Watson.

Er…didn’t you just say “he will have no choice but to play, unless he chooses not to play”?

Lol, yeah Browns put themselves in this situation for sure. They pretty much had to deny it  since their plan blew up. I guess they figure they will try an smooth things over at some point and sweet talk Baker with some BS lol

Exactly.

 

The idiots here are the Browns organization and leadership (sorry, that's a misuse of the word leadership: correction, "anti-leadership"). 

 

I'm not a Baker Mayfield fan, but he is not the problem here. And after watching all this play-out, what QB in his right mind would want to go there? . . . Contrast that with what we are seeing in Buffalo now; HOF players maneuvering to come here. Cleveland Browns = Joke
