Interesting irony from Quarterback on Netflix: Baker Mayfield explains how an interception by then Texans safety Justin Reid led to the shoulder injury that changed his season, and how former Texan J.J. Watt later re-aggravated it when they faced the Cardinals. If those moments truly altered the trajectory of...

The revisionist history about Baker Mayfield and the Browns is out of control. We're happy for Baker and the success he's found in Tampa Bay. But everyone claiming he'd be doing the same exact thing right now in Cleveland is just lying to themselves. One, you can't just copy and paste the stats a player has on one team and project them onto another team. Doesn't work that way. A lot of things had to transpire for Baker to be in the position he's in now. In 2021, everyone--national media, Cleveland media, fans, etc.--said Baker wasn't the guy to take the Browns to the next level. The receipts are everywhere (RGIII might be the funniest one). On the Pardon My Take Podcast just this past summer, Baker admitted that playing through his injury in 2021 was a mistake: "The last year in Cleveland, as banged up as I was...should I have gotten surgery and sat out? Yeah." So many people want to believe the Browns forced Baker out of town. Sorry, but that simply is not what happened. We remember because we covered this every week on the podcast that season. Baker would tell the media on Friday that his shoulder was fine and he was making every throw in practice. Then after he played poorly on Sunday, he'd tell the media his shoulder was really bothering him. It happened every week. Baker forced the Browns to play him injured, not the other way around. You can refute this all you want, but Baker admitted this himself. "I learned a lot of lessons about how damn stubborn I am. Watching the film from those games now...I was a stubborn asshole. I wasn't able to play to the best of my ability by any means." Everything happens for a reason. The success Baker is having with the Buccaneers wouldn't be happening if things hadn't gone the way they did in Cleveland. And then in Carolina. And then in Los Angeles. Remember, Baker was statistically the worst quarterback in the NFL in 2022. He had a 26.3 QBR (32nd), 60% CMP and 10 TDs to 8 INTs in 12 games. Baker needed to mature as a person and a quarterback. And that happened because he was rejected by 3 teams in one calendar year. It happened because his only opportunity was a 1-year/$4M deal to compete with Kyle Trask. Honestly, it's all part of the story only Baker Mayfield could write. No other quarterback in the 2018 class could've survived in Cleveland with Hue Jackson, Freddie Kitchens and all the other nonsense that took place during those seasons. Spare me with the Browns could've had Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson talk, neither of those guys would likely be who they are had they come to Cleveland. And how many guys could've been turned away by 3 teams, had one foot firmly out of the league and still continued to fight and grow to do what he's doing now in Tampa? The list is probably just Baker. Like we said, we're happy for Baker and what he's accomplishing. But we don't need to revise the truth of how things went in Cleveland just to make ourselves feel better about other things the Browns have done that didn't work out.
