I wonder if he mentioned anything to him last game, especially after both of their performances.

You got that from the article? He seems to have a chip on his shoulder (which is a good thing) And uses that as fuel for his play on the field. Look at his story in college, started at Texas Tech as a true walkon freshman. Transferred to Oklahoma and won the starting QB position there. This kid has probably heard all the "you're to small to play QB, your arm isn't strong enough." But yet he keeps on proving them wrong. Is he a douche? Absolutely... but most athletes are. As for this story, I laughed at it. Webb a freshman was telling Mayfield another freshman to get him towels. Mayfield should have given him a towel he wiped his ass with to Webb. Now look at them, Mayfield looked like he has the goods to play in this league, and Webb looks like a guy who should be stocking shelves at the local food store. Time will tell of course how their careers turn out.

This is a one sided story . There are two . I question if this is fact or Mayfield hot headed drama playing. If anything it makes him look like he has an inferiority complex. If he did not, he would not have needed to bring that up. Is he saying he needs to be disrespected to inspire self confidence ? DC's love this kind of information delving into a QB's psyche. If he had any confidence at all he would have retrieved towels and still took his job.
This guy will prove to be another Jeff George before his time is done. Anyone who disrespects his frail self-assurance gets under his skin in a way he can not let go of it. Crotch grab in Kansas because he felt emotional picked on. Now he claims Davis bullied him. This is stuff that most would just blow off.
This guy is a QB. What is going to do when things are going wrong in a game. Is it going to get to him.? If he holds on to stuff this petty. How is going to concentrate when everyone is disrespecting him to get him unravel . What is he going to do when the media starts to make comments that disturb him? . 90% of a QB is from the neck up. He would have been better off keeping this stuff to himself.
Jut my 2 cents.

I am glad that being asked to get towels has led to everything else he has accomplished. Pretty impressive.

I am going to use it against him and have my front taunting him every time he get under the center. |

I'm pretty sure that Mayfield is equipped to handle whatever verbal jabs may come at him. The guy played at two big schools and did extremely well, so I'm sure he has already heard his fair share of trash talk on the field. This was nothing but a funny story, an anecdote.

I can't wait for Baker Mayfield to have a bad game or like any QB in the league to have e one, just so you can stop beating into the ground Davis Webb having two rocky quarters in a preseason game. It's bordering on a strange obsession. Every single QB wets themselves at some point in some game for some period of time. I have no idea if Davis Webb is going to be successful, a career backup, or out of the league in the next 2 years, but I do know that I would never ever read so much into two quarters of preseason football to inform my prediction. |

Well this of course seems to explain Webb’s jitters which is troublesome in itself, but hopefully he can put that behind him and just focus on his game.

I’m not going to judge Davis Webb off of that performance . I think all of last years debacles and then this whole situation where do we take a QB at number 1 or is Webb the guy put a ton of pressure of his first performance . That’s an extreme amount of pressure for a young guy who hasn’t played a snap . I’m sure he knew that although this was a preseason game he would be judged heavily off his first performance. Sometimes when you try to look too perfect the fluid motions become tense and tight . I want to see how he plays after he settles in.

Just don’t get the comparison at all They both do not have command of their emotional response. Until he proves otherwise . That is my opinion of him . He did the same thing against Georgia. Fromm outplayed him . What was his response. Cut his head off . When thing go against the way he thinks they should go, He becomes a whiny little bitch and resorts to childish jesters to prove his worth. Only thing he proves is, he can be gotten to. |

I am not a big fan of Webb at this point. I have said that. I would like to see him get it together. One bad game is not a good window to judge him by. Let see how he responds. On the other hand. Mayfield will be his own demise. When he starts up with his sideline antics. The media is going to have a field day with him every chance they get. I can almost call it . He will become unraveled because the media is picking on him. |

Mayfield will be a player in the NFL for a long time.
A lot of us on the other board wanted him if they were going to go QB but he was gone and Schumer already so much had said he likes bigger QBs so that’s that.
Reminds me of Favre and Brees and Wilson. I don’t think he’s mentally weak at all. I think he’s a leader and will help turn the Browns around.

IMO Mayfield may turn out to be a good player but the biggest problem will be the team he plays for. They are perennial losers and I don’t know if Mayfield can turn the fortune around for that team. Let’s see how he handles some adversity that’s not going against him but the team instead. Because we do know that team is regular season garbage and not a power house Oklahoma team. |

And since he’s on the Browns that should be pretty much most of the time. 🙂 |
