Seeing big name players want out of the more stable and well-regarded franchises makes me think these days it's less about a team's history and more about how much control and support a team is willing to give a marquee QB.I could get wanting to go to Tampa because of the weather but Cleveland nah!
The Browns could be a franchise willing to give a big-name QB like Rodgers everything he wants and Brady in Tampa shows how having a QB who can win it all can convince a lot of players to sign on. What makes a franchise a hellhole may have more to do with inflexible or controlfreak owners and less to do with the overall history of the team.
I'm not saying it would lead to Cleveland winning it all, but my main point is that the narrative seems to be changing, at least for now. Imagine telling someone a few years ago that players would want out of Pittsburgh, New England, Green Bay, and Seattle and would want to go to Cleveland and Tampa Bay...wacky.
