Glazer announced Baker broke his humerus bond.
Baker… wants to play next week.
Oh c'mon!
You know that tired cliche about the athlete that only cares about winning? I feel like a very small percentage of players care as much about the team winning as Baker Mayfield does.Dude is insanely likable. Really appreciated his sideline juice tonight. Hope we can live in a perfect world where his injury was a hiccup and post surgery, he’ll simply be back to his late 2020 form.
Maybe. Browns seem to play down or up to their competition.After watching the game last night, it’s safe to say Baker is better than what people give him credit for and is not as easily replaceable as people think. A healthy Baker last night and the browns win by 2-3 Td’s. Hopefully he can heal enough to play against Pittsburgh, bc Keenum starting scares the shit out of me against there defense
Agree 100%. I bet that fracture was probably really difficult to see on the MRI because other stuff was in the way, and the team doctor probably said "i think its cracked, but cant 100% tell". Like you said the team at that point said "nope you are done" and Mayfield said "hold up, he isnt 100% sure lets get another opinion".You know that tired cliche about the athlete that only cares about winning?

I sensed some insinuations (I'm not directing this at you, BTW) that Baker was putting himself above the team by insisting on playing. I think he knows that even with a broken wing, he probably gives his team a better chance to win.
Also, his seeking out a 2nd opinion makes so much more sense in light of Glazer's report of a fractured humerus. The fracture is probably what caused the team to shift gears and advise Baker to take some time to heal.

I agree. Got dang TJ Watt. the Steelers offense is ASS though so maybe the defense won't let them go off too much.After watching the game last night, it’s safe to say Baker is better than what people give him credit for and is not as easily replaceable as people think.

If baker does play I would expect to see a lot of quick hitters, extra protection and a heavy dose of nick Chubb.I agree. Got dang TJ Watt. the Steelers offense is ASS though so maybe the defense won't let them go off too much.
The only complaint I have about Baker is holding on the ball too long. I'd not be mad if he checked down, got rid of the ball or just screened it out some plays. Accuracy has suffered this year I believe because of the injury.
The Browns don't have Ravens luck this season. 60-yard FG, the bullshit in the Colts game, so on and so forth.
What they have gotten is really bullshit officiating. That Chargers game will piss me off forever. They tried it again in the Denver game but the Browns got a win.

Sounds like a porno I just watched.
And for the record, Nick Chubb is one of the greatest porn names of all time. Right there with all time great Peter North.
