I will say that it is premature to declare the Browns "alive" after all these years of being dead, but you have to hand it to them.  They were god awful and they hired a GM with a great track record, went all-in on a QB, made some wise FA moves, and stockpiled picks to build through the draft, and then fired an under-performing HC and a lousy blame-passing OC.  They basically did the things we have been begging our franchise to do.

Angry Bengals Fan:  The Bengals need to fire their crappy coaches and hire a real GM!
*This just in, the Browns have fired their crappy coaches and have a real GM calling the shots now.*
Angry Bengals Fan:  Pffft!!!  They'll never win!


They were really bad and they reacted by doing stuff that is paying off, thus far.  Heaven forbid, if the Browns are actually successful people may be duped into thinking firing crappy coaches and hiring successful GMs to fix your franchise is a reasonable strategy!  LORDY!

He's grandstanding for all the world to see - LOOK AT ME

It's that sense of entitlement, narcissistic even. I'm great and I deserve special treatment, that makes him a 'special" kind of @#$%^ $#%.

So Mayfield is granstanding and insulting everyone, not just Hue?  It's possible, but the guy seems pretty popular outside of Cincy, thus far.  I don't think Falcons and Panthers and Jets fans are as angry at him as we are, but I haven't really delved into the Baker Mayfield show like others have.  


Also, I wouldn't call Mayfield's attitude "entitlement" more so that he is sort of an annoying, anti-hero perpetual underdog who will likely remind everyone how much people doubted him and so on.
