Baalke just sucks and has zero concept of how humans work outside of his myopic view. He just concentrates on kissing khans [BLEEP] and putting the right leaks out at the right time to make him seem like the smart guy in the front office.

If Josh Allen has to make a statement that starts with "of course I'd like to stay in jacksonville" it shows baalke has already [BLEEP] up.
