But in his 4 years in CLE, baker never had a defense better than 20th. That surprised me, but every ranking system on the net agrees. Cleveland’s defense didn’t become great until after Baker was traded.

Ok. That is news to me too.
So maybe I’m being overly harsh on Baker. I certainly have nothing against him. But I remember thinking at the time that Cleveland wasn’t going to get it done with him.
Maybe they would have.
They rolled the dice to try and get a QB that could carry a team not just manage a team. It failed spectacularly. But I don’t blame them for trying.
