I mean, I don't think it matters.  It's not like players don't talk poo on the field every single Sunday, of every week, of every season. 

Thank you!  Every play you see players yelling at each other.  It's just part of the game.  These guys are so sensitive that it's going to set them off to hear Baker wants to crush them when he plays them.  They already know this...

This x1000. Baker wasn't going out of his way to give the Browns bulletin board material.

Cynthia knew what she was doing when she decided to share an essentially off the record conversation with a "friend".

If there's any defense of her, I guess it's that she didn't directly initiate the conversation in the podcast. Dan Hanzus asked her to share it.

But share it she did, and Hanzus must have already known about it when he asked so clearly she'd told him before.

She clearly regrets that now.

To be fair, this is the Browns we're talking about.

Ownership wanted Watson so bad they suspended all rational and intelligent thought.

Nah dude, I have to respectfully disagree with you on that one.  If Baker had all this promise and leadership as being painted on here there's no way anyone would've made that trade.  

They paid half his salary to gtfo. The Panthers were only willing to go a quarter of it he had to eat the rest to come here.

Look around the league right now and tell my why we were the only team interested.  You can't use cap as an excuse either.

Fair to point out that most of the league had chosen their quarterback already, either via returning veterans or in the draft.

Only two teams were heavily speculated to need this trade, us and the Seahawks. Seattle chose to choose between Geno Smith and Drew Lock. For whatever you think of Baker, that's an insane decision.

Will it work out? Don't know. I do at least like what I've seen so far though.

He should have known better to say anything like that around a reporter.  Now he better back it up or he's going to look mighty foolish. All bark and no bite.

All I can say is he better back it up.

Like is said, if he doesn't back it up the locker room will not buy into his bravado because it is all bark and no bite. Talking sh!t loses its meaning if it is not backed up by action.

No issue if he backs up his talk. Especially since he says "he's" going to be the one to fug them up. Kinda puts himself out there to deliver a monumental performance all by himself don't you think?

I'm not against a player having fire in him. If he can ball he can talk shyte all he wants.

Baker is just a shyte talker who so far has not lived up to his trash talk. That is just an annoying bullshit artist who shoots his mouth off and can't back it up.

So...........................I'm guessing you think there is a chance that he can't back it up?  I'm not positive though, just wanted you to clarify. 

Thanks

I feel like Seattle has chosen to tank for Stroud.

Doesn't make sense to me given Carroll's age.

Is the plan to be competitive again sometime before he hits 100? 😕

Yeah... They did keep Lockett and Metcalf plus Cross looks to be a good LT.  If a young QB can catch on quickly they can get competitive pretty quick in a year or two.  All that cap money saved on a rookie QB can build a nice team as well.

Seattle is obviously looking to start over at QB in 2023. A move that I wanted us to make, but I’m starting to get on board with Baker

So you're a Baker hater who can't think reasonably because you don't like him.  He's a playoff winning QB who was ascending and in the top 10 in QBR when he got hurt.  You just aren't educated on this and you're saying ignorant things.  NO ONE was going to help the Browns out.  No one.

Here's her full backpedal

First of all she said it, not him, it wasn't about the Browns but in general, and he just agreed.  She says she shouldn't have reported it, because its been twisted.

 

She got the attention she wanted from it. All reporters do it. There is no “off the record“ with them

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By SCMunnerlyn1 · Posted

      Just as we won those close games we could have just as easily lost them. So the jury is out on if we were more lucky than good ( see the sweep by the saints) Were moving forward on paper. And how badly dont we all want to see us back to at least Above average form. Its about time.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
