There's no going back, Hue. It's Baker Mayfield time

Hue Jackson's heart was in the right place; he just could have said it differently.

Reveling Thursday night in his first victory since Christmas Eve 2016, the Browns' head coach was asked if the Baker Mayfield-led comeback against the Jets meant Mayfield would be the starting quarterback going forward. He could have said something like, "Tonight's not the night to get into all of that. Tyrod Taylor is in concussion protocol, and we have 10 days until our next game. We'll discuss that at the appropriate time."

Instead, Jackson said, "I'd like to watch the tape," which is a thing football coaches say when they obviously don't want to answer a question.
