Its just a feel and i understand its without a doubt early- but the whole feel of the game changed. Its not just what Baker brings as a QB- all though his accuracy and ability to move around the pocket was phenomonal.Stop the hype train wiggy. I want Mayfield to be the answer @ QB just like all other Browns fans. You're slobbering all over yourself & it was 1 game. Remember what Sam Darnold did the Lions D his 1st start?
Baker or LeBron? Nope. Right now my answer is Fransisco Lindor.
Its the fact that everything changed when he went in. The Browns were down 14-0, on national TV, about to be humiliated on national TV, again, the non-winning streak looked like it was going to get extended YET another game. A game they were FAVORED to win.
This kid comes in when the Browns are down 14-0. His first action of the year. He has not practiced with the first team AT ALL. In the post game- Joe Thomas said that the most impressive thing to him was he had really no chemistry with these guys- he had BARELY played with them.
But you just felt it. The crowd changed. The offense seemed to take it to another level. The Browns very young but very promising defense took it up another level. He looks to me like one of those guys that can make your whole team better because of his leadership- and there are not too many of those guys in the whole NFL. Guys believe in him.
It went from "Browns gonna Brown", or "Same ole Browns" to a feeling a of genuine excitedness and confidence because and only because of Baker going in and how everyone raises their game when he is out there.
