The Seattle Seahawks were unable to put together a clutch drive against the Dallas Cowboys in their week 6 loss. Wide receiver Doug Baldwin unhappy with the performance of the Seahawks’ offense in that game. It’s safe to say that he did not mince words (via Pro Football Talk).

"“No. F–k that. We had plenty of time. We had plenty of time to making f–king plays on the field. Plenty of time.”"

See?

In the never-ending search for hot takes, this led people to wonder if Baldwin was questioning his teammates, specifically quarterback Russell Wilson, and otherwise stirring up drama in the Seahawks’ locker. That is not the case, at least not according to Baldwin himself. From the Seattle Times:

"“I wasn’t yelling at Russell in any negative way. He knows I’m a fiery guy and that’s just how I am. I’m passionate about the game of football…“…I mean, they know I’m going to speak my mind. And for the most part they know I’m going to be wise with my words. But at the end of the day, I think that if you know me, you know that I do things on purpose. So I felt like it needed to be said.”"

Let’s just say that Richard Sherman isn’t the only outspoken Stanford graduate on the Seahawks’ roster. Like Sherman, Baldwin has no problem with people knowing he will pop off every now and then.
