Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield continued his feud with Colin Cowherd, and he’s sounding as dumb as ever.

Mayfield told Complex Sports the following in part about the Fox Sports pundit:

You know, there’s people like that who are really abusing their position. Abusing a platform to a point where people are going to listen to it. He’s supposed to bring out facts and he chooses to put out irrational opinions. People can say what they want, they can say I’m not really supposed to comment on this but a liar is a liar and a guy that is really just full of it needs to be put in his place.

Cowherd had a classy response Wednesday, and pretty much just pointed out Mayfield’s comments just prove any criticism of him is correct.

You can watch it below:

How long is this dumb feud going to go on for? As I’ve said many times before, I really want to like Mayfield. I do. There are a lot of positives there to cheer for, but he just can’t help himself from opening up his mouth.

The man is supposed to be the face of an NFL franchise, and he’s wasting his time arguing with Colin Cowherd. Do you see any Super Bowl champion getting into dumb squabbles like he does? Absolutely not.

Mayfield should focus on winning a playoff game instead of arguing with sports pundits. When he raises up the Lombardi Trophy, then I’ll give a damn what his opinions are. (RELATED: Baker Mayfield Discusses Odell Beckham Jr’s Offseason Schedule. Do His Comments Surprise You?)

Until then, he’s wasting time. How many reps could he have gotten in with the time he wasted talking to Complex?

He’s got an attitude that involves a lot of fire, but Mayfield just can’t seem to stay focused. The Browns didn’t even make the playoffs last season!

Do something noteworthy before running your mouth constantly. It’s really not hard to figure out.

If Mayfield wants to be a champion, then he should shut his mouth and get to work. Getting into petty arguments should be the last thing he’s focused on.

Unfortunately, I know that won’t be the case, and we’ll be back here in a little while talking about how he still hasn’t matured yet. What a damn shame.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
