Why do people keep paying mediocre QBs? Just baffling to me. You ain't winning shit with Baker Mayfield. He's just good enough that he's going to hurt your draft stock so you continue the cycle of mediocrity.

I'd rather have Chris Jones.

He sucks. Tulsa sport radio stations going to jerk off about this.

This is the exact reason why I constantly bitched when we had Alex Smith.

Seems like a pretty good deal for both sides.

Smart deal, for both Baker and TB. Look forward to seeing him in the NFCCG in 2024.

Hahahsshahasahahahahah

I’ll never like booker but he earned another shot. Remember Daniel jones got 40mm/year lololol

Yah, that contract was loony tunes. But there's a lot of QBs getting paid $40 million AAV that don't deserve it. And Baker is better than more than a few of them.

Derek Carr is getting $37 million/yr, and Baker outplayed him last year.

Dak is getting $40 mill

Deshaun Watson is getting $46 mill/yr, and Baker has been outplaying him for a while now.

Kyler is getting $46 million/yr, and Baker has always been a better QB than Kyler.

Russell Wilson.

And Tua is supposedly going to get $50 million/yr, and Baker is a far better QB.

So ****ing stupid. No wonder we keep dominating. Teams are dumb.

Other teams doing stupid things shouldn't cause praise for those doing things slightly less stupid

Baker's worth the contract. Some guy on ESPN a week or so ago said that Geno's 3yr/$75 million contract would be worth more like $34 million/yr in today's dollars, so this contract is just in line with NFL inflation or whatever. Never mind that Baker is better than Geno.

Good for him.

He has seemed less douchey as of late.
Glad I’m not a Bucs fan though.
