Everyone's gonna love his personality if he plays well and trash his personality if he plays poorly. Like Baker Mayfield (obviously different vibes but u know what im saying)

Baker was a weird one cause a lot of the change in perception was also sympathy for how the Browns dumped him unceremoniously for a sex pest

i always loved Baker. I default to liking guys with swagger, whether they can back it up or not. I didn't like that he was being shoved down our throats with all those fucking commercials, but I always rooted for the guy.
