Haslam is a successful business billionaire.

Berry, Depo, Stefanski highly educated intelligent guys. I don't understand how they planned this?

They hired security and had been investigating Watson for a year. They have had four years of experience with Baker. They have to know him.

When the 2021 season ended the normal procedure is to look back at what went wrong? The goals were not achieved. You review and develop plans to correct the failure.

A couple weeks after the season why did they not get out in front of this. Call Baker in and tell him they are going to look around.

They should have known that given Watson and the Texans. Their chances to have the Texans trade within the conference and Watson to agree to come to Cleveland while looking at other warm weather teams (they knew Carolina was all in) (they knew the Saints could be a player) That they were a dark horse at best.

Before they prepared an offer. They should have had Baker under control. Then someone leaks out to Chris Mortenson "they want an adult."
For crying out loud have control of your organization.

What is wrong with these people? Now they are in a twitter war with Baker? Really?

Baker needs to know. It is a privilage to be a starter in the NFL. But if your results are not at a pro bowl level. The team will look to upgrade. Life in the NFL. Hello. Baker you are not helping your value to another team by going public about how you feel.

This was poorly planned and executed worse.
