The Cleveland Browns had their way with the Cincinnati Bengals this year
Color Rush Ryan Finley Jersey , sweeping the “Battle of Ohio” contests. In both victories, quarterback Baker Mayfield was very animated, in varying forms, about his disdain for Hue Jackson. After being fired from Cleveland back in October, Jackson landed with the Bengals. The move made sense for both parties—particularly from a familiarity standpoint, as well as Jackson’s vast experience coaching in the AFC North. Regardless, Jackson heading to a rival didn’t sit well with the former Heisman Trophy winner. When asked about his beef with Jackson after beating the Bengals back in November, Mayfield made a reference to his former coach being “fake”. We discussed his actions on this week’s Orange and Black Insider podcast and co-host John Sheeran didn’t seem to mind Mayfield’s actions. Sure, he was irked that it was at the Bengals’ expense
Cheap Ryan Finley Jersey , but these aren’t things that are new with the brash signal-caller.“Baker Mayfield will always try to find the guy who he kind of builds his mentality around and try to make him the villain so he can conquer him,” Sheeran said. “That’s the way that he is and he has deemed Hue Jackson that guy because of what has transpired with him. Even after that first Bengals game, he made Hue Jackson the villain and the entire city of Cleveland rallied around him”. In speaking of my distaste for Mayfield’s actions, I noted the irony in Mayfield’s decision to gloat in Jackson’s direction. First, reports had Jackson being the one pounding the table for Mayfield as the team’s No. 1 pick, when some believed Sam Darnold should have been the guy. Additionally, was Mayfield expecting Jackson to not take a job—especially a pretty solid opportunity shortly after being fired? I mean, the man has a family to support. It’s also not like Mayfield was given the starting job once Jackson was let go, either—he was named the starter in Week 4. There’s also the whole “act like you’ve been there before” argument

(And, yes, I definitely remember the Chad Johnson days.)I wasn’t alone in not digging Mayfield’s gesture this past Sunday. FOX Sports’ Colin Cowherd, whom I’ve been at odds with on many opinions in the past, raked Mayfield over the coals for his Hue stare-down. Perhaps what is striking a chord with Mayfield, aside from his need to create an enemy to build that aforementioned shoulder chip, was Jackson’s post-firing media tour. He aired some dirty laundry and that didn’t seem to sit well with Mayfield, Damarious Randall or Jabrill Peppers. Regardless, this rivalry has heated back up thanks to the Browns being competitive and Mayfield stoking the fire with his brash behavior. It will really only cease once Cincinnati can consistently beat he and the Browns once again. Also on this week’s episode:Jeff Driskel disappeared for three quarters once again

Green is inching closer toward being active on Sunday when the Bengals take on the Falcons.After being limited on Wednesday, Green got in a full practice during Thursday’s session. That’s a very good sign he’ll be active in Atlanta

Not all the news was good Thursday, however, as Giovani Bernard (thigh) and Cordy Glenn (knee) remained limited. If they don’t get in a full session on Friday, they’ll likely be game-time decisions. Bernard being out would mean Mark Walton and Thomas Rawls would get the majority of touches in Atlanta. If Glenn is out, either Jake Fisher or Cedric Ogbuehi would move into the left tackle spot, and it would likely be Fisher. Dre Kirkpatrick was unable to practice Thursday after back and groin injuries had him limited on Wednesday. If he’s out this week, Tony McRae will be playing more next to Darqueze Dennard and William Jackson.
