Some Drama between Baker Mayfield and Steve Wilks

Baker says Steve traded him when he was in Carolina Steve says he didn't have the power to trade Baker or CMC

(2) Adam Schefter on X: "Former Panthers HC and Jets DC Steve Wilks’ responded to the comments that Baker Mayfield made after beating New York last Sunday: https://t.co/nyk2EeIOI7" / X

There's a thread on it. Baker has a legit beef to a point but bringing it up so early in the season kind of out of the blue just makes him look immature.

You look for motivation anywhere you can get it. I've worked in sales my entire career. Do I relish every opportunity I get to take business away from a former employer? You damn right I do. LOL 

 Kind of like Smitty and his Blood and Guts return to BOA?

It wasn’t out of the blue tho.  They just played the Jets and Wilkes is their DC.

    • Was going to post pretty much the same thing, the next few weeks will dictate 
    • Stroud will be fine. Yeah they need to fix his OL they stripped apart and yeah he is currently playing bad with his new OC and no OL. The main difference is Stroud showed what he can be for a whole season his rookie year, plus went to the playoffs in each of his first two seasons. I believe he is 2-2 in the playoffs at a very young age for a franchise that was the 2nd worst when they drafted him. This season looks bad but it’s also very early. I will say that this season so far gives you a glimpse of how Stroud would look here. It’s still very much a team sport and always will be. 
    • Totally fair assessment + criticisms. The breaking down of abilities though... he really is and has been processing things at a high level. The rookie season to forget, while many casual fans were upset that their eye test was being failed, many folks that know ball saw the insanity taking place with the highly touted coaching staff that end up being the biggest bust we have seen in a long time, an injury-riddled OL, and subpar weapons. Those were called excuses then and now. Hell, even the criticisms about Bryce's arm strength seem to revolve around plays where he was unable to set his feet and deliver the ball. Not always, but there's been enough video showing stuff for example how many catchable deep balls thrown that aren't due to receivers not holding on. The difference in how the team handled the blitz in week 3 makes me wonder how much of those first two weeks' blitz pick-up issues were on Corbett. I think Stroud should be fine so long as he doesnt regress to how he was in college for all but the Georgia game. Pressure would really, really rattle him. That was the main reason why 3wks before the draft I put Bryce as 1a and CJ as 1b. Before anyone thinks that I'm just arguing to be right, I also thought that Max Duggan was a mid-round steal so being right clearly isnt that important to me as much as it is figuring out where I got it wrong (the league just wasnt ready for Max's greatness... 😤).
