After the team traded quarterback Baker Mayfield to the Carolina Panthers months after trading for Deshaun Watson, some fans have drawn their line in the sand.
Browns fans are known for their loyalty. Amid The Fumble, The Drive, even 0-16—Browns fans haven't wavered in their support of the team. But after the team traded quarterback Baker Mayfield to the Carolina Panthers months after trading for Deshaun Watson, some fans have drawn their line in the sand.
"I've been a Browns fan— I'm 40 years old— so probably since the mid-eighties," Martin said."I'm kind of disgusted over the whole situation, to be honest with you." Other fans, like Michael Roberts, have been fans of the team for even longer and don't plan on changing that anytime soon. Roberts said his fandom has stretched over 70 years and counting. When he found out the Browns were trading Mayfield, he was actually happy.
“I wish him well, I can’t begrudge him anything, we made an upgrade. It wasn’t anything personal," Roberts said. “I have no animosity towards Baker or anything that he’s done here in Cleveland. All the other histrionics with it, you know, no big deal.” The divided fanbase goes so deep that some Browns fans, who plan to generally root for the team, are pulling for Mayfield even against Cleveland.
"The quarterback is not the team. He's just kind of the head of the team. There's 53 men on that roster that are part of the team so I can never not be a Browns fan," Lockner said."The players come and go, regardless of who's on the team the rest of the team gets my support. So it's not about who's on the field at that time or who used to be there. It's just kind of about the passion that we have as fans for football and for the Browns.
