No we're alright. Just our track record with drafted WRs is the worst in football. And this drives me bananas because it's one of the keys to having a functional offense in the modern NFL.

10,363 snaps and not a playoff win to show for it
Grossi is removing the paywall on his site so he can publicly take a poo poo on Baker, which he has been doing since before Baker was drafted. Tony Grossi is a tool.


Edit: I just skimmed it, it's basically Baker doesnt want to give Grossi the time of day since Grossi is a drama queen scumbag beat writer.

So having public meltdowns against the media is usually a good sign that a QB will work out right?
I am really rooting for Baker Mayfield to turn his poo poo around but you can't fix being shook.
It kills more QB careers than torn ACLs.

Tony is an rear end in a top hat that people hate more than regular assholes because he's right some of the time.

From the article:

quote:

But I am not the only person he has disrespected along the way. The stare-down of Hue Jackson last year, the putdown of Daniel Jones in a national magazine interview, the interference in Duke Johnson’s personal squabble with management … those are just the obvious occurrences that received widespread attention. There have been others that were brushed aside as “Baker being Baker.”


Baker pretended like the stare down didn't happen for a while until he was forced to admit what was loving obvious to everyone else.

He's a punk.

Instead of him just saying that having an attitude makes him a better player, he should concentrate on the poo poo that will actually make him a better player.

Last night when we took our kid trick or treating I had to stop for a minute and check something out on my phone, so I fell behind.

To catch up, I ran across the street to meet them.

My wife got all pissed off and said “You shouldn't be running across the street like that in dark clothes at night, you might get hurt!”

I told her "Relax, this is Baker Mayfield's neighborhood. We all know he can't hit anyone wearing a Browns jersey."

I agree. The Ravens suck because they don't have a WR as good as *checks notes* the third best WR all time. I mean, instead of the highest scoring team in the league, they could be an even higher scoring team!

What I mean is that we cannot draft and develop WRs. Every WR we've had that's worth a drat has come from elsewhere. You could cheat and argue that Derrick Alexander was drafted by the franchise. But that was the Browns.

Torrey Smith had one 1000 yard season in 2013. Brandon stokley had a 1000 yard season in Indianapolis once with Peyton Manning as QB. And that's it. Nobody we drafted otherwise ever had a single measley 1000 yard season, anywhere. I'm not setting the bar too high. This team simply cannot draft or develop that position. And I don't completely understand why. I don't think any other team in the league can possibly have that putrid of a record with drafted WRs since the team became the Ravens in 1996.

The Steelers haven't drafted a worthwhile defensive back since Ike Taylor and Troy Polamalu in 2003, buddy. Every team, even teams that draft well like the Steelers and Ravens have their issues

But you have gotten them. One of those is a HoF. We haven't even gotten a single selected pro bowler WR. Ever.

Defensive back maybe is the only position the Ravens draft better than the Steelers. And it's nowhere near the gap between the Steelers WR drafts vs the Ravens WR drafts.

Braylon Edwards was a draft pick by the Browns largely considered a bust. He would be the best Ravens receiver ever drafted.
