Browns focused on Mayfield getting slimmer, faster

[Icecube]

Look, I heard somethings where they were acting like the weight gain was on purpose to make him "more durable." I'm calling BS on that.

His weight gain was from pounding beers and probably pizzas. At his age, it would be a cake walk to drop 20 lbs. Just drop some of the empty calories and he's be right into shape. And when your head coach looks like he's hiding a beach ball under his shirt, not much leadership going on there..

He really hasn't missed many snaps since he started starting. I will say that about the guy. If the dad bod fat helps absorb those hits, then l’m ok with it l guess. Just have him do legs. Lots of running.

Anyone out there not gain weight during their first year of marriage? I know I did... a bunch. Then I woke up and started working it off. Baker can do the same and will have a lot more incentive and help to do so than I ever did.

Wow. In black and yellow this fat ass is easily mistaken for Pig Pen.

They're saying over on another thread that he's really fat these days.

Of course. My only problem - and this may be an old man talking - is when is this guy going to get focused? You were the #1 player drafted. Take it a little more serious. Let's face it: despite other problems, he sucked last season. Sure, nothing is ever perfect, but he had plenty of plays he should have made. He had a dope running game, good Wrs, OL not the worst...Baker needs to grow up.

Appears that weight gain during the first year of marriage is common amongst you professional athletes.

Yep-I went from a svelte 175 in the best shape of my life fresh out of Infantry School to a porky 190 within 6 months of marriage. So I took a tropical vacation to Vietnam via a two week jungle school in Panama and came back around 165. Funny how those duck and cover drills can take that stuff right off in no time flat. Right C. Mike and DieHard??

"He wasn't focused" is harder to swallow than a Hindu eating a hamburger.

But I'll cling to anything in hopes Baker doesn't end up on that list of one year wonder QB's headed up by RGIII.

And you have denied it there.

Fickle much?

And as I informed everyone, this guy has since died from complication from his obesity at age 38.   Let's hope Freddy does not go that route.  As bad as he was as a coach and had to go,  he was still a decent guy and you don't want that happening to him.

I have denied nothing. The issue is that you're much too obtuse to recognize sarcasm.

Whoa. 

I think I just agreed with this guy on something! ?

Keep up the good work in keeping people informed Gipper!  Even if it's fake news about BR...and as opposed to our beloved Freddie, lets hope BR does die from complications from his obesity you claim he is saddled with, right?.

No I recognized it as a feeble attempt to try to hide your true feelings behind a lame attempt at sarcasm.....you are too inept at creating sarcasm to make it recognizable.

BR is fat. 

Maybe it would be appropriate to saddle him up.    

Or, get him some of these:
