I'm pretty sure tons of analysts and fans in the league felt like the needed to move on from Baker.Ā  That was being said practically daily on sportscenter.Ā  That was common thought.

At no point did I claim they should not have moved on from him. Ā Iā€™ve frequently stated the opposite! Ā

But your argument is ā€œa bunch of people think we should move onā€ is reason for the team to publicly disparage him? Ā Are you Colin Cowherd?

The team didn't publicly disparage him.Ā  There was a leak that there was a riff between the staff and Mayfield and that they thought his maturity was an issue.Ā  Stop creating story line that isn't true.

You think that leak was intentional baselessly because that fits what you want to say happened.Ā  There's nothing to back that up, and there's no logic behind the Browns doing that.

You can love or hate Baker all you want. Getting traded for a 5th and being forced to take a pay cut is humiliating.

He took the pay cut voluntarily. No one made him do it. Thatā€™s on him.

And still has had plenty of success in his life getting to the point he has. Iā€™d rather face this humiliation than the humiliation his successor has cast upon himself and his family.

Hope Baker is able to right the ship. He has faced far too much criticism.Ā 

Agreed. He definitely has his warts but he has absolutely showed that he can be a starting QB in this league. He needs to rediscover who he is as a player/leader and hit the reset button.

What is going to be insufferable are the people/media going bonkers if he plays well for CAR after doing nothing but scream about how bad he is for the past year.
