How much actual effect this sort of thing would have on the game? Unknown.

What Mayfield has done though is create a narrative and a context of sorts. Every reporter and analyst that talks about this game right up till it actually happens is likely to mention these comments and frame the game around them.

BREAKING NEWS!  Baker Mayfield wants to beat the team that replaced him really bad!  More to come later....  I mean it really makes for some lame news stories right?

In the 24 hour news cycle / social media world, yeah.

FYI: He'll apparently have a chance to talk about it today...if he's so inclined.

Don't know that I'd refer to it as a "situation" but ya know...

Garrett is a good dude. He fuging writes poetry, he's not going to maliciously try to do anything to Baker because some sideline reporter played a game of telephone with herself 

See the source image

lol, but I would think Baker is actually cool w/ 95% of the Browns players. 

the couple players that don't know him might try to use the comments as fuel.  Rest of the team just knows it is Baker being Baker.

She already walked it back on air on ESPN. This isn’t a story to anybody but the media.

Only a few people on here were actually bothered by it.

That said, I'm gonna call bullsh-t on Baker here.

I don't doubt for a second that he said it, but he probably figured it wouldn't go anywhere.

The denial is most likely damage control, and possibly requested by the team.

Sounds like she said I hope you F them up and he said me too. Why would she go back on it? She already lost baker and the other players as a trusted media person

      The Roar Podcast with John Ellis is back

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      One thing this got me thinking, is if Canales got some of the best seasons out of Baker/Geno/etc, how long before Tepper asks him his true assessment of Bryce? Obviously it has to be sometime during or after camp once pads are on

      Here is the bottom line---if you assume that the offense was bad because Young was bad, then that position is understandable.  If you assume Young was bad because the offense was bad, that is understandable.   Personally, I think Bryce will improve a lot in 2024.   There just aren't too many rookie (or veteran) QBs who would have done well under these circumstances....full stop.  I have NEVER heard so many different experts (game announces throughout the season) analysis experts, talk so much about a team's receivers not getting separation.  Experts know how important this is because the qb has about a second to get the ball in that window--we did not have any windows.  Furthermore, we had 7 different LGs and 8 different RGs.  62 sacks, most up the middle.  So he had people in his face with no open receivers.  And people are saying, Bryce sucks!!  My question is this:  What is he supposed to do?  Make sure his plant foot is secure and he is holding the ball to his ear?

      I mean we can't really discuss WR's or Centers or whatever without mentioning the QB situation. Not sure what the optimists are grasping at. He was incognito all offseason except for a couple celebrity camp/youth camp appearances. Thielen was in the weight room every time they put out any footage inside the building. I think being the number 1 pick and QB1 comes with more weight than just showing up a day before voluntary workouts, no pun intended. If Cam had done the bare minimum imagine how much he would have been killed on here
