Yep...Browns got what they deserved all through this, while TB is doing fine with Mayfield.

I guess basing your QB decisions on them doing too many commercials was a mistake.

Just goes to show how desperate teams are to get the qb position "right". If they think youre the guy, here comes the Brinks trunk. Everyone and anyone in the Browns front office who greenlit this signing should be fired today.

It’s not like Baker Mayfield went straight from Cleveland to Tampa and became a star. He was a journeyman for years, at one point very nearly out of the league. Mayfield needed that to realize his talent, that journey is why he’s so good now.

Name a player who has grown as much as a person as he has. You have to admire it.

It was 1 year between Cleveland and Tampa.

Great commercials. Baker had a really big keyring.

The contract is like Wilt's 100 point game if there was a record for worst NFL contracts ever. I don't see how it can ever be topped.

The player growth reminds me of Jim Plunkett landing on the Raiders.

He can still suck now and again. But man, when he's hot, he's as good as anybody.
I put $10 on Tampa to win the conference @+1200. They've beaten Detroit and they trounced Philly and Washington. Could it happen that they beat all 3 again?

No, but it seems like a hope a dude could latch onto.
