I don't get all the Baker hate
-
People just love to hate on Bake in the media. It's really making me kinda angry. First Mangini said he was overrated and didn't give him any credit vs. Cincy, then Damien Woody bashes him over and over again. The whole "Hue Jackson is a victim of Baker" narrative, and then hacks like Colin Cowherd saying today that, "Lamar Jackson tore up a pathetic Bengals D and Falcons D, Baker faced a decent D like the texans, and he's gonna find out a lot more of the Defenses are exactly like the Texans than the Bengals". That Cowherd statement is ridiculous. The texans have a top D, Watt, Clowney, and there isn't more than 14 other teams as good as or better than them. "Lamar tore apart Atlanta and Cincy's Defense too and kept his mouth quiet. Baker should just keep his mouth shut and play, that's part of what's wrong with him as a QB" Cowherd said.....
Shannon Sharpe saying today on Undisputed that he played horrible over and over again and that he's mediocre..... It's just endless. I've never seen this much hate against one player. I think all of these media fools want baker to fail and be a bust and for the Browns to suck. They want to keep their damn lolbrowns stories and for us to be a joke and irrelevant, and it scares them we might be competitive. How come Josh Rosen, Lamar, Josh Allen, and every other young QB isn't held even close to the standard Baker is?
I hope Baker doesn't be quiet. I hope he continues to grow and get better and tear up defenses. And I really hope someone in the media for once has his back. Drew Brees played horrible but no one says a WORD about that. Nothing. But Baker is just a mediocre guy after facing one of the best defenses? Shannon says the 49ers QB is mediocre and threw for a lot of yards too, but for christ sake, Baker is far from mediocre.
When he makes a mistake these fools slam him, and when he does something good they give him no credit.

Baker should just do his job and avoid the media hype. Action speaks a hell of a lot louder than words.

I hope they keep talking because I believe that Mayfield is one of those guys, like Brady, who use that as a motivational tool to go out and destroy. Five super bowls later Brady has never lost the chip on his shoulder and I hope Mayfield never does either.
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -
They’ll only be able to keep up the charade for so long. Every QB, rookie or vet, has good games and bad games. The good QBs have more good games than bad.

Funny. I'm not hearing the 'Baker hate'. I guess I'm not looking in the right places.
...and D Woody hated ALL of the Browns for being happy after they halted a 20+ game road losing streak. As for Sharp saying Baker is mediocre, that's great! Most rookies look pretty bad in their first year.
I WILL say that I wasn't overly pleased in him mentioning receivers not running routes the right depth and not contesting for balls hard enough during his post game press conference. I mean, what if a receiver tweets out, "I run routes correctly"? - You've gotta have a filter when talking to the media. Hopefully, someone in authority has a quick chat with him. - Obviously it's perfectly fine to talk to the receive(s) about it, but not with a microphone. At practice, "Hey man, interceptions look bad on my stat sheet. How come you ran so far before breaking?" - This is a problem that Tyrod Taylor doesn't have. Taylor won't throw it until you make your break. Baker will throw you open, but you can't leave him hanging by running the route two or three yards deeper.
Baker is young, our receivers are young, It's still a work in progress.

Yeah right. Go back and watch some of the throws he had yesterday. Not everyone can do that. Screw those idiots.

The Hue Jackson situation was greatly overblown. To this point Baker is a bit overrated by fans and some in the media. That's not a knock on him personally, like Rickie Fowler in golf, his personality makes him a lot of fans and his play has been very good at times.

Easy fix to all of this. Don't watch these shitty shows. They are just there to stir up arguments. Everyone one of them is basically trolling to get people to watch just to get people pissed off.
They're all trash. Just stay away.

I try man, I don't even watch those shows, but every time I even turn on ESPN you hear someone trashing him. The media just loves the losing Browns narrative. I can't wait till they're are speechless when we're winning.

And his personality can rub some people the wrong way.
Let's be honest, there's a healthy dose of frat boy douchebag in Baker.
It is what it is.

Don't turn on ESPN unless they're showing a live sporting event or if SVP is on. Otherwise don't watch. Problem solved.

And you know he’s a fucking rookie so he’s gonna look like a rookie sometimes like yesterday’s first half.

Most rookies throw 3 picks and fold. Baker did it with 397 yards passing

I hope they do hate baker Mayfield for a couple reasons one for the fact that he doesn’t take any shit from them 2. because he beat their ass and 3. because he can be a douche bag and then get some off their game so let them worry about Trying to fuck with him rather than worrying about their game.

He might be a jerk. But he’s our jerk
Reminds me of Albert Belle. Belle was an a-hole. And one if the biggest jerks of all-time. But he played for us. And he was great.

He’s entitled to his own opinion. Just like the media. He’s a stand up guy, it appears he never saw eye to eye with Hue and if you think about it...
Hue signing an ex divisional rival OC who has been an OC forever and then leaves Cleveland to go to another divisional rival. Who knows what else went on behind the scenes.
...We all know the “Baker you’re the back up” on Hard Knocks. Probably could’ve and should’ve been avoided.
The media is entitled to their opinion as well, and at the end of the day... Mayfield can say whatever the F he wants

I won't go digging it up, but little surprise Cow-Bell is at it again. Baker has a relatively bad game and Colon unloads his constipated bowels on Mayfield. He wants to prove to the world he's a better talent evaluator than Dorsey.

That's why i made the thread dude. I didn't want to, but a Colin Baker video started autoplaying on youtube when I was working. I listened and got agitated, and had to speak out against it.
