Cleveland happened to Baker Mayfield.

He was holding in to tight and lost his edge.

He got on the White Ship with Bilbo and Frodo

It was all that work he had to do in those at home with Baker Mayfield commercials. Wore him out. How do you find time to work on your game when you have to take a hand brush and a dustpan out to clean 60,000 stadium seats?

There’s a new quarterback in Los Angeles.

Following his release from the Carolina Panthers, Baker Mayfield has been claimed by the Rams. The former No. 1 overall pick joins a Rams team that’s down to John Wolford and Bryce Perkins following a neck injury to Matthew Stafford, which landed him on injured reserve.
Mayfield started six games for the Panthers, throwing six touchdown passes and six interceptions. In his last start in Week 11, he threw two picks against the Ravens, a game the Panthers lost 13-3.
He went 1-5 in his six starts in Carolina after being traded there by the Browns in the offseason.

The Rams aren’t competing for a playoff spot in 2022, sitting at 3-9 through 12 games, but they now get to evaluate Mayfield for five more weeks with the possibility of re-signing him in the offseason to back up Stafford.
By claiming Mayfield, the Rams take on $1.35 million of Mayfield’s contract, so he’ll eat up only a little bit of space on the cap.

Makes a lot of sense for Rams, they are not going anywhere and they do not have any draft picks so it is not like tanking has any value for them. Mayfield is a name and an interesting story so can help keep some fan interest in attending games while they finish the season.

Maybe McVay can get something out of him where others failed.

maybe mcvay is just flipping the bird to his intrastate rival to the north who could use a QB to help them through the playoffs?

Mostly this.
