The Browns is the Browns

Like any divorce, the blow up may have occurred over one thing, but the seeds have been sown for a while.  People who are aware of the Browns knew this was coming eventually, the Watson thing just sped it up and made it more public.

Baker getting a long term contract with the Browns has "Jay Cutler 2.0" written all over it.  They'd get to watch a pouting, blame-shifting, turnover-prone QB make a gazillion bucks for putting their franchise in "at least we aren't bad" mode for 4+ years.  All the while they can ask themselves if this is the year he "gets it" or "returns to form."  Baker even went full Cutler by throwing 4 INTs in a Christmas-ruining  two point loss against the Packers!

Actually, Baker is more like one of my exes....good enough to convince you to lock things down long term and get overly invested and then make you stare at the ceiling all night wondering how the hell you got into this mess and how the hell you're going to get out of it and which sucker out there is going to take this miserable long-term contract off your hands.

Have I mentioned how glad I am we have Burrow?
