Chris Simms Talks Baker Mayfield, Reaction Inside Glazer Game Suite
April 7th, 2026
The “Pay Baker” chants go beyond Gerald McCoy’s house.
Former Bucs QB Chris Simms, the NBC Sports Xs and Os guru, also is all about extending Mayfield’s contract. Mayfield’s three-year Bucs deal expires after the 2026 season.
Simms made quite a case for Mayfield this morning on PFT Live.
“I kind of look and go, ‘Man, there’s not too many of them out there. And you’ve got one in Tampa Bay. You got one,” Simms said of Mayfield being a tough and talented quarterback. “You got a guy that’s a leader, he can make big plays, he’s got a great arm. And there’s just very few [quarterbacks] that you can say, ‘Hey, we got it.’
Simms also talked about Mayfield’s toughness, injuries and the entire Bucs team’s rash of injuries last season.
“I would think they’re going to find the sweet spot [for a contract extension] here,” Simms said. “It’s just about what is that number — what makes sense for where Baker Mayfield is in his career.
“He’s a damn good player. He gives your team an edge. He gives your team an, ‘oooh, the Bucs are on. It’s Baker? Let me watch them.’ Because Baker’s going to go for it. He doesn’t play the politics of the sport. He goes for it. He is trying to win. He’s trying to throw lasers. And he’s one of the more explosive quarterbacks in football in the pocket because of his frame of mind and his big right arm.
“You know me. I love the Bucs and I’m hoping the Glazers and [Bucs GM] Jason Licht reward him.”
For those who don’t think Simms has a good feel for the Bucs. In addition to chatting with Joe at the Phoenix airport last Tuesday (Simms was dealing with a delayed flight and Joe was at the airport early to battle security lines.) Simms was a gameday guest in the Team Glazer suite during the Bucs’ epic meltdown against the Falcons on Thursday Night Football in December.
And Simms shared with PFT listeners a rare glimpse into the world of Team Glazer from that night.
“Listen, you know I was there, I was in the owners box,” Simms said. “All I can tell you is that the Glazer family was intent on, ‘Wait, let’s go watch the big screen TV in our box here and let’s watch the postgame press conferences.’ And I didn’t sit there and watch with them because I was like, ‘That seems like it’s a family business meeting over there.’ I’m going to say goodbye and blah, blah, blah. But they were, yeah, obviously extremely tuned in at the time and worried about kind of where the organization was going at that point in the season and why the play wasn’t as good.”
Imagine that. Team Glazer — known for greeting players and coaches in the locker room after a win — passed on leaving their seats after a tough loss to gather, wait and watch how Todd Bowles and Baker Mayfield would react to a choke job when they could have watched it on YouTube later.
And that’s when Bowles stepped out of character and unleashed his infamous, profanity-laced tirade.
Then Team Glazer watched the Bucs, on 10 days rest following the Atlanta loss, dominate time of possession at Carolina but lose while their offense imploded in the fourth quarter. And then the Bucs limped through a loss at tanking Miami a week later.
Man, these Glazers are patient folks.

We are lucky to have “Born Again Baker” as our Franchise QB. Resign him and get the biggest concern for any Franchise taken care of for the foreseeable future. Now about that Putrid Pass Defense…
April 7th, 2026 at 1:32 pm
We’d be lucky if he signed. I wouldn’t sign. The trajectory of this organization and hanging onto a failing head coach and players jumping ship…why would he sign? Baker wants to win. Hes not going to stay here unless Todd goes next season
April 7th, 2026 at 1:44 pm
Baker is good and earned the new contract. It could be a lot worse like Mike Glennon type worse so be careful what you wish for.
April 7th, 2026 at 1:52 pm
We can franchise him too
April 7th, 2026 at 1:57 pm
Baker Mayfield will get a contract extension, he deserves one
The problem last season was Josh Grizzard, and his vertical offense
When he was first promoted, his first words ( We need to get the ball upfield more)
The problem with that mentality, Baker is an inaccurate vertical passer
That was his problem in Cleveland, and OBJ father pointed it out in a video
He made a video of Baker misfires to OBJ, or completely not seeing him open
Baker has the same identical problem with Emeka Egbuka
Baker was near perfect in Liam Coen ( Dink and Dunk) offense
Where he throws short, and the receiver runs for yards after the catch
His strength is short passes while rolling out
His weakness is vertical passing while in the pocket
April 7th, 2026 at 2:00 pm
Mayfield is fun to watch, can be exciting, has talent… do you trust him to win a championship?
He’s similar to Dak Prescott- talented but can he overcome other team weaknesses that may crop up because his salary cap hit is alot.
I prefer Bucs wait and see how this season plays out – if he bolts for Rams, so what? Doesn’t mean Bucs can’t draft or sign another capable player
April 7th, 2026 at 2:06 pm
Baker Mayfield is just a mid range QB, his record proves that. Nothing special.
Let him ride out the 2026 season and see how it goes.
He watched ME13 bolt to get away from the Swiss cheese defensive scheme.
I’m guessing he would be better off elsewhere away from Todd Bowles.
Unfortunately we fans have no escape hatch like the players do.
April 7th, 2026 at 2:09 pm
He’ll get his contract. Its a matter of when, not if.
April 7th, 2026 at 2:12 pm
Simms has perspective, experience, knowledge and his opinions are really valuable. Wait………..Mulch is wrong? Ha..
April 7th, 2026 at 2:13 pm
Gotta sign Him Long Term just to see Munch’s Head implode
April 7th, 2026 at 2:20 pm
Glazers needed to read the comments on JBF at the end of last season!
Good freaking grief!

Bucs just signed WR David Sills from the Falcons….
This dude absolutely killed is last year in the Bucs/Falcons games…
Never even knew anything about this guy but he played well in Robinsons offensive scheme….
Very interesting…
April 7th, 2026 at 2:22 pm
There’s at least a dozen NFL teams right now that would be very happy to sign Baker Mayfield to a multi year $40+M per contract.
Despite the rough ending to 2025 – when you look at his 3 year body of work here in Tampa Bay, stats say Baker is easily a top 10 Quarterback. He’s top 3 in TDs thrown I believe….
You combine those stats with fiery leadership and a genuine demonstrated “football mentality” – and still in his prime at 31 years old – the Bucs would be foolish not to try and sign Mayfield to a somewhat team friendly 2-3 year extension sooner rather than later.
Get him locked in. Give him (and his family) the peace of mind that he has indeed found his “home” – that the Bucs ARE his team for the foreseeable future and are committed to surrounding him with talent.
Under those circumstances – Baker might just be willing to agree to a 3 year extension for $130M or so with some additional incentives and $80M guaranteed – on top of the $40M he is already earning in 2026…..
Sounds expensive – but that would represent an under market deal and be a win-win for both sides IMO…..
April 7th, 2026 at 2:24 pm
David Sills is the guy that caught that 4th & 14 (from the 3rd & 28) catch against Vildoor to set Falcons up for the last second field goal….
How times have turned, lol
April 7th, 2026 at 2:25 pm
I wonder if Sean McVay regrets letting Baker go? Baker could be with McVay next year if Stafford retires after this season.
April 7th, 2026 at 2:30 pm
Lakeland. Rod Munch agrees with you 100% on Mayfield not being able to throw it vertically. Simms, I wasn’t too impressed with his game when he was in college (Texas) so I’m pretty sure he’s got different opinions on QB play than I have. So Simms saying “And he’s one of the more explosive quarterbacks in football in the pocket because of his frame of mind and his big right arm”. I’ve got to admit. Every football scout, or player(especially defensive backs), or television pundit- none I’ve ever heard of has ever said anything- anything- about Baker’s downfield passing ability. In fact, quite the contrary. His downfield rifle strikes fill up an all day highlight reel. Let’s see if your narrative gains any traction there Lakeland. I’m telling you, with Munch on your side you guys have a good start with it.

Mathew Stafford career record 120-118. Baker Mayfield 58-62. Pretty sure Mayfield record for the first 8 years of his career better than Stafford. Is Stafford a a mid range QB? Baker will sign for $50Mill 3 year deal with most guaranteed. When he does, you, Munch, and the other “experts” please just go away.
April 7th, 2026 at 2:51 pm
Bucs should sign Baker long term.

5 yr./255 million. By the end of the contract he will be considered cheap. And the last few years the salary cap will be huge, so we would be fine paying it. Baker isn’t an average quarterback. He’s a pro bowl, franchise quarterback with a rocket arm. Watch the Seattle game again. He throws deep with *incredible* precision in that game.
Protect him, and you will win far more often than not.
April 7th, 2026 at 3:33 pm
Give Baker a new contract now. Munch’s head will not be the only one that implodes.All the Winston and Trask cult members will.
April 7th, 2026 at 3:34 pm
Lynchmob, Baker came here because Bowles wanted him here. So Bowles is mostly responsible for resurrecting Bakers career. I doubt that is lost on Baker, he owes Todd.
April 7th, 2026 at 3:37 pm
No new contract. Wait for results this year.
April 7th, 2026 at 3:38 pm
Lakeland, Baker was misfiring with Egbuka or anyone else in the earlier part of the season. It happened in conjunction with the injuries. And it was the same thing in 2021 except the injury happened earlier in the year. Not coincidentally with injuries to his left arm both times.
April 7th, 2026 at 3:39 pm
Was not misfiring
April 7th, 2026 at 3:39 pm
Baker is a QB you win WITH
Not a QB you win because, of. Can’t overpay him and not pay anyone else.
I get it, the O-Line wasn’t healthy and Licht failed to have quality depth there. But all the 4th quarter INT’s against lesser opponents showed us Baker, is not the franchise type QB who can carry a squad to wins. He needs help, and you can’t pay him and everyone else. Especially since Licht can’t draft good defenders
April 7th, 2026 at 3:40 pm
It isn’t just SIMMs, it’s Florio as well that thinks the Bucs should resign Baker.
April 7th, 2026 at 3:43 pm
Section 312, Baker was a quarterback we won with because of him in the first half of the season!
April 7th, 2026 at 3:46 pm
It is true though that they find that sweet spot when it comes to the amounts and duration of the new contract. If the Bucs show a commitment to win going forward, Baker will play ball I think and take another team friendly deal.

Hey doofus, Baker QB record, which is what you idiots talk about, was better than Stafford’s for their 1st 8 years in the NFL. The more you idiots post the dumber you are.
April 7th, 2026 at 4:17 pm
Winston and Trask shouldn’t be put in the same conversation. Winston was and is a very talented quarterback whose abilities were not harnessed like they should have been. Sean Payton was beginning to do just that but then Jameis blew out his knee and he really hasn’t been given another chance to be a starter. His time with the browns should not count. Trask on the other hand was a second round pick and the Bucs nor anyone else since is willing to give him a chance. There has to be a reason for that.
April 7th, 2026 at 4:18 pm
all you pretend GMs don’t know squat.
April 7th, 2026 at 4:21 pm
They’ll have to do a Vita Vea contract to amoritise the hit, and why not. Seven years at $65 AAV = $455 aka largest QB deal in history. Guaranteed money maybe $250, also largest. This is reasonable. Hard to see how we won’t win a Superbowl during that period, especially toward the end when the value of his cap hit is less vs the salary cap. Baker is a baller.
April 7th, 2026 at 4:39 pm
I think they make him play out this year – off topic, I still can’t believe in that 1st Panthers game last year…the Panthers have the ball 2nd and 2 at the Bucs 22…12 seconds left in the half and no time outs…the Panthers only play is to throw it to the endzone…so you think the Bucs give up the short field goal and just flush 7 or 8 guys into or around the endzone…the Panthers throw it away kick the FG and go into half time down 10 to 9…but Bowles blitzes sends 7…the WR for the panthers runs by Dean (why did he come up) Bam TD!
Sigh Go Bucs!
April 7th, 2026 at 4:46 pm
It’d be wild if because of that one now famous ATL post-game PC by Bowles, he saved his job
If he didn’t show how pissed off he was in the public eye that day, he might have been fired. With the Glazers so alarmed by the outcome of that game that they are questioning the direction of the entire organization, yea, I’d say if Bowles came out flat there or apathetic or ho-hum, it wouldn’t have sat well with Team Glazer at all and he would’ve been a goner after the season concluded.
That PC has even more lore now. Wild.
April 7th, 2026 at 4:51 pm
@Aaron lol Bowles and Grizz just weren’t jiving last year, better days ahead brother, better days ahead…
April 7th, 2026 at 4:55 pm
2nd Aints game Baker chokes on the final drive with a chance to win it. Completes less than 50% of his passes and has a costly pick
2nd ATL Game, 4th Quarter, BAKER INT
1st Panthers game, 4th quarter, BAKER INT
v Dolphins, 4th Quarter, Baker FUMBLES!!! BAKER INT!!! (Double WHAMMY!!!)
Needed one of these games and Baker came up short every time
April 7th, 2026 at 5:13 pm
Baker fans (not Bucs fans) wnt the team to rush and extend him before the start of the season because THEY dont have faith in him either. They know this is looking like a sub.500 team and he will have his typical Baker year.
They are hoping baker has another fluke 2024 and quite frankly, even that was a overrated year that resulted in 10 wins. Baker did not even finish top 10 in MVP voting that year.
Get over it, the Baker “error” is winding down. The guy is simply the most overrated player/qb I can remeber. Show me another Qb with his resume at this stage of their career who gets as much hype…il wait….
You guys settle for mediocrity at the game’s most crucial spot and its sad. I saw a comment where a guy said if you did a “Qb only” draft baker would go #19…at the highest.
The guy said Stafford, Lamar, Burrow, Allen, Mahomes, Goff, Dak, Hurts, Lawrence, Love, Herbert, Stroud, Purdy, Darnold and the 4 guys from the class of 2024 draft class- caleb, Jayden, Maye and Bo Nix.
Thats 18, now factor in 15/18 are younger then Baker and of those 15, 12 of those guys are 2-7 years younger then Baker. The 3 thats older then baker have had a much more productive career: Goff, Dak, Stafford. Those 3 combined have been on 5 teams, baker has been on 4 by himself.
You guys are nuts just assuming McVay “IF” Stafford- the reigning MVP retires. Stafford will be a starter longer then Baker if he decides to keep playing. WTF makes you think Mcvay would want a short, inaccurate guy who cant see over the line of scrimmage and can only play “panic ball” at 32?
Its laughable to assume the next HC would want to inherit baker and a massive contract. I loike how you guys point out watson, Tua and Murray as examples of bad coontracts but ignore baker cap # is in line with top tier Qb for 2026, not to mention is exponentially higher then guys on rookie contracts.
Pay 50-60 million to a aging, limited, undersized journeyman who cant read a defense or see over the line of scrimmage. 6/8 years this guys was 25th or lower in completion %
April 7th, 2026 at 5:50 pm
Wait until the end of the 2026 season to sign Baker is a gamble that I see the Bucs taking! If Baker and the Bucs go belly-up, problem solved, draft the best quarterback available in 2027 and move on! On the flip side, Baker lights it up top 5 in all offensive categories but Bucs defense folds all season. Solution, play baker an unfriendly team contract extension and moves on! Or extend Baker now with a team friendly contract with incentives and move on! Me, I would never gamble against Baker.
April 7th, 2026 at 5:51 pm
Im sick of hearing you guys compare baker to Brett Favre, Drew Brees and now Mathew Stafford…. Like seriously……WTF?!?! That is why we say you guys act like cult members. I dont know if you guys believe the stuff you say or just say it to as a hot take, but either way its disturbing.
The guy who said baker would go #19 was being more then fair as he gave baker the nod over Daniel Jones, Bryce Young, Rodgers and all qbs from the 2025-2026 draft class. So tbh, even #19 is being generous. Do you really think in a year or 2 baker will be better then EVERY guy from the 2025 and 2026 class? highly unlikely and this is who you guys want to bank on?
April 7th, 2026 at 6:11 pm
Bye BakerByeBowles. I might take Caleb Williams in front of Baker on that above list. No, I don’t think I would. Baker is as good a QB as anyone on that list. Odds are, Tampa signs him this offseason.
April 7th, 2026 at 6:15 pm
BBBB. And he’ll be paid in the range of any QB on your list. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. Or better yet- Munch on that!
April 7th, 2026 at 6:17 pm
Okiejim: Why pay him when he was profilific 1/8 years? You want to pay him based on a low impact, outlier season? if De Angelo Russell or Andrew Wiggins averaged 27 points a game and led a team to a 44-38 reccord and a first round exit would you give them a max contract? No. And baker is not coming off that year anyway. By his standards he wasnt that bad. 2025 was his 4th or 5th best season. While you guys turned on ME#13, the last 2 years baker has playe without Evans he is 4-8. In 2023, Mike caught 13 of bakers 28td passes. that is a unhealhty dependency.
Its a no brainer and if it wasnt for the “baker hype machine” they would have moved on after 2025. This guy is literally a decade in and we debate if he’s good, average or stinks.
You guys talk about SB and he has 2 wildcard wins in 8 years and even that was 3-4 seaons ago. Stafford has proved he was a talented guy stuck in a losing culture by winning the SB his FIRST year from away from Detroit. Darnold has since leaving the Jets is 39-17 with a Sb win.
Baker has a slightly better record the 4 years he was in Cleveland then he has the 4 years he left. Nothing about him says winner. Even here he is 27-24, 11-7 in the nfc south, 16-17 outside of it. 17-19 if you include the playoffs.
The 2 most consistent franchises of the NFC the last decade (Eagles and 49ers) have proven the Qb just like any other position, more so actually can be reviewed and upgraded constantly if you dont have a Mahomes or Brady…. Philly beat mahomes and brady with Foles and jalen Hurts.
Meanwhile, you guys want to act like we got Joe Burrow and “keep building around him”. This is garbage and why every year we are in a dog fight to win the MAC of the NFL. A historically bad division in stretch wher ethe divsion has won one wildcard game in 4 years.
April 7th, 2026 at 6:46 pm
You would take Baker over over taller, bigger, more accurate, Drake Maye who is 23? He has already did 2 things Baker has not by going to the Super Bowl and having a season with a high MVP finish.he’s over 7 years younger and making peanuts compared to the contract has right now.
Garbage take. Jayden Daneils/title game-including pimp slapping baker on the road with a inferior roster as a rookie. Bo Nix-Nfc title game. caleb was a boneheaded pick away from the title game (with the 29th ranked defense by the way-ours was 19th).
And everyone of those guys play in a tougher division then bakey bake. As far as your gloating about a contract extention, HAS IT HAPPENED YET?? Why didnt they sign him BEFORE free agency????
The Brady era proved the glazers dont have alligator arms. hey love baker (supposedly) and baker loves Tampa so why before free agency, boom, 3 years/165M??
he’d certainly do it, tjhey are the ones hesitating. lets say your 40 years old and been dating a girl for 3 plus years…..What would stop you from proposing?
April 7th, 2026 at 6:50 pm
Sorry. Love Baker, but can’t give him another multiyear contract at this point. Let him play out 2026. Then if he performs, tag him or give an extension.
But extending him when the current HC is on the hot seat makes no sense.
April 7th, 2026 at 6:58 pm
Saw a stat this morning on WUB (I think it was)… Only like HALF of the Starting/Franchise-QB’s in the entire LEAUGE, are making at least $30-MIL per year!!!! And, that includes Baker and Cousins. Though, I didn’t see Willis on the list, so it was probably just for last season’s QB’s. But Tua was not on it either, unless I just missed it!?
There were barely, only 10 of them making $50+MIL. Most all of them you would say are WORTH-IT, or at least justifiable. Other than Trevor Lawrence and Jordan Love. BUT, both franchises from to having such very LOW ‘sample-sizes’ due to injuries (&/or) having to sit behind ‘someone else’ in the very beginning (like Love), were left without much of a choice. You could obviously see that the ‘potential’ talent was there, in both. AND, they were both drafted by their current franchises. I’m just not sure there would’ve been anyone else willing to PAY THAT, though!?
Bottomline being, “Those Guys” we’re both extremely YOUNG and FRESH, while just coming off of THEIR ‘rookie’ deals. Baker is NOT. He is neither of those things, or even close. You’re going to have to make HIM earn it 💯. That is just the ‘reality’ of the current situation that this Bucs Franchise is in. There are too many questions marks. And, bad teams absolutely do NOT need to be investing (especially ‘longterm’) $50-MIL+ per season in ANY inconsistent, aging, beat up and banged up, only just slightly above average Quarterback. Period. End of Story. Let someone ELSE do that then, if THEY want to. Number-1, it would not fit our timeline. Currently, we don’t even know what our “timeline” IS!? You play out this season FIRST.
A BAD TEAM (heading fast towards a complete rebuild) does NOT NEED to be spending $200-MIL+ on a Quarterback. Especially one, who is ‘OLDER’ and is on an entirely different timeline. It would be completely POINTLESS. It does absolutely, NOTHING. The ONLY way you would and should (when you are a bad team)… Is if he is ‘YOUNG’ and without a doubt, a TOP-5 ‘generational’ type of talent, who CAN take a team and put them on HIS shoulders, AND WIN. A 33-36 year old, middle of the road, $50MIL+ per year Quarterback on a BAD TEAM, is pure ignorance. There is literally, absolutely NOTHING to gain by it. You can only LOSE and dig yourself, an even deeper hole.
April 7th, 2026 at 6:59 pm
Kenton your delusional. were you around before 2023??? Your a baker fan and not a tampa fan. You have zero objectivity.18 months from now you will be on another team fan page blaming the OC,line and every teammate and playing the “baker is a victim” card.
meanwhile you ignore the fct that baker while not the only problem is certainly a problem himself. Then, shortly thereafter he will be done as a starter. he will be this generation Ryan Fitzpatrick. Except hes short and went #1 overall and literally had a zillion chances to stick as a starting Qb.
I see you guys are pandering for an extension because guys know tha seat is hot and in all likelihood a new HC isnt gooing to want a small, inaccurate, scrappy journeyman who cant read a defense or see over the line of scrimmage.
You guys act like Because Mcvay took a flyer on him 5 seasons ago towards the end of a lost season that those 2 are joined at the hip. its laughable. This is it. You guys can pound your chest when baker gets a extension and THEN he has to perform. Read betweenn the lines.
April 7th, 2026 at 7:15 pm
I mean Jesus Christ even Tua is 44-32 while being in the same divison as josh Allen and the Sb pats last year. its very difficult to be a sub .500 Qb. Tua won almost 60 % of his games in Miami. baker has only won 53% here in tampa and like I said, he is below .500 outside tampa. pathetic.
baker record just here alone when he has to thrwo 35x or more is BELOW leauge average(4-11). That 1-10 mark when he has to throw 40x or more is BELOW leauge average. His record when the defense gives up 20-27 points is BELOW leauge average.
I sit here and watch you guys criticize everyone everywhere he has ever played and absolve him from all blame. i have so many damning stats on baker during his 3 years here, it would make your head spin.
If I know this as a fan, you think the Bucs analytics and business department dont? At some point that rah, rah, proverbial chip on the shoulder has to translate into something meaningful beside brand, marketing and hype.
he seems like a ok guy, I have nothing against him personally. teammates seem to like him. But he’s no rocky. yes , rocky was a undersized underdog too. But eventually Rocky was the MF man and at the top of the mountain.
You never have been able to say that nor will be able to say that about Baker. He is not nor will never be Stafford.Stafford has more talent in his pinky then baker has in his entire body and yes, baker has a strong arm.
You guys are going to have to ban me (again) and ill just get another name (again). When it comes to baker i simply cannot loose a argument. The numbers and apples to apples comparisons are too powerful. I dont disrespect or name call and ppl get so upset they have to resort to that.
It doesnt bother me. it just lets me know Im right.Im not a Munch burner or have any association with the Cleveland browns, Lincoln Riley, Kyle trask or Winston lol. Im a long tenured 4 decade fan who will always be a fan.
If you cant remeber Santana Dotson, you really should not question my fandom.
April 7th, 2026 at 7:16 pm
And, if you DO!? Then, you’re only going to HURT your chances of landing a top-tier level, HC and GM. And, all for WHAT exactly… Just to be good enough to win between 6-9 Games every year, while keeping us from having a Top-5/10 Pick!? SERIOUSLY!? Just to hire ANOTHER ‘average’ no-name or retread HC!? REALLY!? There comes a point, where you have to just rip the band-aid OFF, tear-it all down, and start over FRESH. Right now, we don’t even know WHERE we are (though, most of us living in ‘reality’ already do). But, by then end of this upcoming season we for sure WILL. And, THEN we can decide on BAKER. His market will be just like it was the last time. I think it’ll be more like 4-6, but there are some people out there, who are extremely ’bullish’ on there being 7-QB’s taken in the 1st-Round, during next season’s draft. That’s right… “SEVEN.” Ya know, there are only so many of those ‘openings’ in the league every year, to begin with.
April 7th, 2026 at 7:21 pm
Since 2023… in prime-time and playoff games Baker has gone 2-11.
In his career year of 2024, he went 0-5.
Last year, needing a single win to make the playoffs, he singlehandedly lost 4 games in a row. Was terrible from week 7 to week 17.
But sure, don’t wait to see if he bounces back, go ahead and give him a billion dollar extension right now! I’m sure it will work out great!
April 7th, 2026 at 7:22 pm
Melvin Junior: Those are the people who only want to get off the Titanic when its sinking…..and then you have to hope your bad enough to get the #1 pick AND THEN hope a Luck or burrow is available. Smh. Or you can be proactive. Alex Smith was 32 when KC traded up for mahomes. Philly went from Foles to bradford to wentz to Hurts ina 5 year span and all those guys were 27-28 when they ere discared. And he re these guys want to keep baker until he retires. Its just the most important posistion in sports. Thats why Qbs get paid so much and W-L are tied to their resume. Do you know JJ Watt W-L record. i sure dont. lawrence taylor? i dont.

@ Bye Baker Bye Bowles – Yeah, don’t waste your time with any of that. KS says that “BAKER” is a future ‘first-ballot’ HOF’er, who’s career has JUST BEGUN LoL. And, NOBODY is choosing or taking BAKER over Drake or Caleb. Absolutely, NO ONE. Not a single Head Coach, GM, FO, Owner, or ‘taking head’ in the ENTIRE LEAGUE. Not a ONE. I mean, it’s a complete no-BRAINER. So, just forget it! This dude has ZERO credibility. NONE whatsoever. I mean, you are nothing but a stone cold LIAR (or troll) at that point. GUARANTEED that I know how he votes, too! The exact same way that EVERY liar, who ignores the truth, and refuses to accept reality, does. 💯

Munch: 2024 that bum started out 4-6. His lightning in a bottle season of 2024 led to 10 measly wins in the putrid nfc south. Thats why even then he finished 11th in MVP lol. Even darnold finished 6th because hge had 4300 yards and 35 td passes on a 14 win team in a historically tough division. Keep in mind Minnesota won 6 games the year before.
baker 2024 would be a ho hum year for dak and a down year for Goff tbh. And i know people blame the defense. In 2024 the commanders gave up more points and still went 12-5 in a divison with the Sb champs. made it all the way to the nfc title game witha defense that aslo gave up over 35ppg in the playoffs.
Nope, you guys cant bully us. Not in the stadium , at bars or social media. ppl like me and other shouting from the roof tops. Whil yall worried about edge rushers we have a loser Qb. I bet KC so glad they readed up for mahomes in 2017 and didnt trade up for Derek barnett or Malik Hooker lol.
bakers just a guy. mtt caseel went 11-5 in 2008 and threw for 3600 yards. I beleive baker is a journeryman/bridge who plays at a replacement level. We will never know whatt his team would look like with a Goff/darnold or herber thes elast 3 years. Plot twist: Put baker on the 2025 chargers in that divison and Put Herebrt on this team in this divison. We get alot better and they are in contention for the #1 pick.
April 7th, 2026 at 7:32 pm
A smarter gamble would be to burn a 6th/7th on Jack Strand this year
April 7th, 2026 at 7:35 pm
melvin jr…..Ketchup Smith aka gipper/giver and all the rest of them need to be silent becuase i hit them with stats and facts and its not cherry picked. Im curious if you go to chat gpt and ask them “where would baker go in a qb only draft” and then aked them a baker vs goff/darnold/love/hurts, etc would theybe honest and give the results? Maybe if they altred the settings to agree with them. but yeah, baker would go #19 at the highest. id give him the nod over dneils Joines but honestly jones was better last year before he got hurt and played tougher competiton. 2 playoff team in his divison. What if tua bounce bank- he did have a winning record every season his first 5 seasons and in 2023 led the #1 offense. What if mendoza is legit this year?What if one of the 2025 guys take a leap? See what i mean?
April 7th, 2026 at 7:37 pm
Well someone’s head is already imploding just talking about an extension. Guarantee you will have a complete meltdown if they do extend him.
April 7th, 2026 at 7:42 pm
WBL: should have blown it up and cleaned house after 2025. started out 3-0 with 3 ugly wins vs teams that started out 1-8.Started 5-2 and had a negative point differential. Got mandhandled by detroit and was getting humiliated by Philly until the usual baker, rally empty calorie points and yards in a defeat vs good teams.
Beat SF who was more beat up then us with a backup Qb and then beat seattle baely with 3-4 starting dbs out-but they dont like to talk about other teams injuries-just ours.
Im still waiting to hear on baker surgery/injury/procedure. i remeber the week before the rams “injury” he leaped head first in the endzone. Im sur eno other qb was hurt or nicke up the whole seaon tho.

DBS: Sorry to disappoint but its not happening lol. All the talk and propoganda is to cool that hot seat he’s sitting on. All a extensionmeans to me is he will be gone after 2027 instead of 2026 lol. But i’ll screenshot it. No extension is coming fella.
They could have done it already and would have IF they wnted to….they dont. Mike took a dump all over him and they doing damage control. If you read between the lines and look at the dialouge/lack thereof between mike and mayfeild, its pretty obvious buddy.
Telling the fans the “wr room” is in good hands and making no mention of the Qb is crazy work and a nasty shot. All while simeltaneously praising his new, much younger, much more accomplished Qb is vile-AND then hanging with Shady MCoy…. baker’s most vocal national critic.
And here’s the thing, despite the fact baker is 4-8 the last 2 years without “washed up” Evans and bakers td dependency on Evans these 3 years , i would not have even attempted to sign Mike. Id thrwon him a classy good bye and looked forward to that 2027 comp pick. But its a dump on baker for sure!

———-
Statistically speaking he had a very good year, and Coen got a ton out of him. But the point is he’s unlikely to ever have that big of a year again, and even in that year, he still was 0-5 in prime time and playoff games – and the playoff game, in particular, he was trash in, including the fumble that lost the game.
Betting on Baker generally gets everyone involved fired – which is why the Bucs will almost certainly play out this season and see what happens. I don’t see any reason why they’d reward Baker coming off a terrible year. And yeah, he had a great game in Seattle, and followed it up with a great game vs the 49ers, but outside of those two games, he wasn’t any special the rest of the season – and choking 4 games in a row with the playoffs on the line should never be rewarded.
April 7th, 2026 at 8:04 pm
Munch it was ok but it was low impact, hence the 4-6 start. Its also why he ws 11th in Mvp voting. Darnold was 6th. But yes, bakers 2024 is a regular dak year. it woould get dak or Goff criticized and ppl would be calling for their head but because its baker, its a herealded year on par with Bradys 2007 and Rodgers 2011 LOL. It was a outlier anyway. he finished 3rd or 4th in completion % that year. His next highest best finish was 19th. The 6 other seasons he was 25th or lower. he had 41 td passes, his next highest year was 28. its a 50% jump from his 2nd highest yeat. Can you say FLUKE!!And ven then, screw that 10 win season. Took week 18 to win that garbage divisoin.
April 7th, 2026 at 8:17 pm
I am sure that the “baker” haters are extremely successful or have been successful at their daytime jobs, how successful would you have been had you had a different boss with a completely different set of rules for each of the past 8 years? Add a different set of coworkers and owners in the mix with a salary increase on the line. Do you see success or failure?
April 7th, 2026 at 8:21 pm
Darnold was on 4 teams the last 4 years and has had MORE offensive cordniators then baker and actually Darnold has played on 5 teams overall. Next excuse!
April 7th, 2026 at 8:40 pm
Please, people, come to grips with the fact that if you want the kind of quarterback you claim to want, you will be paying him 50Mil/year and up. Who, precisely? In your fantasies you mention all these names, but you never cite one as being remotely available to the Bucs. The standard is not to let a player in his prime play out a contract; it’s a sign of appreciation, as well as recognition that his existing salary is undermined by normal inflation. If the Bucs let an eight-year veteran play an extra year to evaluate him, that is a sign of disrespect. Mike Evans noticed this. Now, when one of your super-QBs sees Baker being treated this way, he will not be inclined to jump to the Bucs. Unlike yourselves, he is not going to say, “How wise of the Bucs to test Baker for another year!” After all, he’ll be treared the same way if he comes here.
April 7th, 2026 at 9:07 pm
Second most TD’s, 95, in the NFL in the last 3 years which includes Baker playing the entire second half of 2025 with multiple injuries that Lavonte David said were painful.
You girls go play with your dolls. Just a bunch of whining weasels. Glad Bucs have a QB that doesn’t whine. He shows up and plays.
April 7th, 2026 at 9:11 pm
Oh, and one more thing. More like $150million more over three years. Get used to it girls.

Okiejim: Great point. Otherwise, in my humble opinion, you may be giving the antibakes excess credit as to their assumed professional successes. I’ve been in analytics for over 40 years and I can tell you that the real money is very often found outside of the box of universally-published data. It’s the information that not everyone else is looking at. If I went into an investor meeting with only the data that everyone else is known to have, I would’ve been done from the start.
April 7th, 2026 at 9:30 pm
Gipper, volume stats are the ONLY arguments you guys have…since 2023 by the way. Well tell the truth. baker and gof are the only Qbs not to miss a start the last 3 years and Goffs# numbers dwarfs bakers in every conceiveable way.
You know who the #1 Qb is in yards and td passes the last 4 years????? jare goff. And while Goff is exponentially better then baker, nobody has Goff as a top 3-5 Qb. underrated yes but come on. here is where stats lie… frank gore is the 3rd all time leading rsher in NFL history, is he 3rd best?
From 2022-2024- a 3 year span geno Smith was a top 6-8 Qb…volume stats wise. In 2023 geno Smith had more yards and td passes then lamar who won mvp. Matter of fact, 2022-2024 (3 year span) has a higher winning % then 2023-2025 (3 year span) Baker in a exponentially tougher division.
So your saying 2024 Baker: 4500 yards, 41 td passes had a better year then 2024 Lamar: 4100 yards, 41 td passes??? Please dont be that dumb? lamar played 2 tiers above that.
derek carr and cousins have flirted with 5000 yards before. Nobody cares. Despite not starting the first month of his rookie season, herbert threw for over 14,000 yards his first 3 seasons. does anyone talk about that? No
How many games have we seen these 3 years where baker has piled up stats late vs prevent defenses when the game was over for all intents and purposes? Forget stats. Drake Maye threw for 295 yards and completed 64% of his passes in this past Sb and he played terrible.
SB before that Mahomes as great as he is had a absolute stinker. his team was down 40-6 and he piled up some worthless yards and tds . In that SB mahomes threw for more yards and td passes then Hurts. Did he play better? No way. Context matters.
Those volume stats are the only thing you can say. Now do his “per game metrics”…right. In 1989 Don Majowski led the Nfl in td passes. Not HOF Qbs like kelly, marino, Elway, Montana, warren Moon. Not 2 x mvp Randall Cunningham or Sb Champ Phil Simms. Nope.Not pro bowlers Kosar or Jim Everett. A obscure, 10th round draft pick nobody remebers except 50 year old Packer fans.
I feel like i teach economics, philosiphy and history on here and for free…. I have to get up early in the morning. You Baker lovers have a great night! Sorry but you guys have to get over it. hes not the guy here or anywhere else lol.
April 7th, 2026 at 9:32 pm

Is everyone on here insane? We went 2-7 he sucked- not a leader of anything
April 7th, 2026 at 11:05 pm
Darnold has had 4 coordinators in 4 years. Bakers had 4 coordinators technically over 4 years but Coen was his coordinator twice. Once with Rams and once with the Bucs. So since it was on different teams we’ll say 5 for Baker to 4 for Darnold. So you’re wrong bbbb, Darnold hasn’t had more coordinators over the last 4 years. Over their entire careers, Darnold has had 7 offensive coordinators and Baker has had 9 if you count Coen on the 2 different teams. If you count the upcoming season then Darnold’s on #8 and Baker #10. Suffice to say, neither has had an easy time of it and both have overcome it because they’re both very good players. Most people that say good things about Darnold now are some of the same people that ripped him before. Same thing with Baker.

For the Glazers, Baker Mayfield is the least of their challenges with the team overall. They are currently in discussions with his agent and both parties know that finalizing a deal prior to the draft will enable the Bucs the greatest benefits in cost-control and leverage over the extension period. Although extending Mayfield prior to the season presents (performance) risk, at this point they know what they are dealing with in him. If they can get it done, it will most likely be at least a somewhat team-friendly deal. They also know if they don’t get it done, they’ll be facing one of the following basic scenarios (together with consequences):
1) Baker balls out and the Bucs make a substantial playoff run: Baker earns a top-tier market value price tag that assumes no team-friendly incentives. The Glazers are now in a highly-competitive bidding situation. Choose Baker, or defer to a not-great first round draft pick for a new “franchise” QB?
2) Baker plays well, but the Bucs don’t make a substantial playoff run: Baker earns a top-tier or near-top-tier market value price tag, but needs to look at other team offers due to lack of faith in the future of the Bucs organization. The Glazers are now faced with a rebuild/tank decision that will likely lead to multiple years of declining revenue. Tough choice because they’ll need to pay up for Baker while trying to mix his effect on salary cap with rebuild costs. Choose Baker, or rebuild?
3) Baker under-performs (with the team likely under-performing as well): Baker’s immediate future is that of a backup in the NFL. The Bucs/Glazers capitalize on waiting to extend Baker’s contract, looking forward to a great 2027 QB draft selection and salary-cap easing.
Which scenario are you putting your money on?

Baker is a baller but he was awful last year. Why extend him? Just tag him if needed and get a rookie next year. We only getting 4 wins in 2026 so Bucs will have a top pick. For God’s sake move on from the worst head coach in the league already.

April 8th, 2026 at 10:05 am
Bye Baker Bye Bowles, you will never get it. But I’ll state it one more time because you ARE that slow and obviously never played the game. Mayes was drafted to a winning organization with a great HC. When you are drafted to a team that was 3-43 before you got there and you had 4 terrible coaches in 3 years that aren’t HC today because they were terrible it kind of hurts your chances of fulfilling your capabilities. Baker has never been on a good team with a good HC. I know you will never get it but a HC has a lot to do with winning and getting the talent out of his players. Besides all that he has done very well. He WON Cleveland their first playoff game in 51 years. That is called elevating your team. Just like he did here his first year when everyone agreed we would win 4 games. We won 10!! Baker has had one really good coach Coen and look what he did with him. The only thing holding Baker back is bad coaching and poor blocking. But you haters don’t want to admitt to that since that would defeat your weak argument. And you haters are the only ones arguing Bakers skills. The rest of us are just shooting you 5 guys down. We don’t argue his talent, it is indisputable. Trask and Winston fans unite, all 5 of you. Coaching is everything dimwits. And TB isn’t a great HC,never will be, they are rare.
April 8th, 2026 at 10:09 am
Did BBBB just use the word objectivity? Talk about projection, wow!!
April 8th, 2026 at 10:17 am
Some of you worship Mahomes, its hilarious. Baker beat his butt twice in college in the quarterbackduel of the century. Then Mahomes went to the greatest coach in the league because the league thought Baker was better because he beat him twice, why wouldnt they, and Baker went to the worst 3 coaches in the league who aren’t coaches today. That is obviously the difference. Coaching matters.
April 8th, 2026 at 10:18 am
You said it Gipper. They never played any sport, you can tell.
April 8th, 2026 at 10:24 am
You haters love to ignore the fact that in the playoffs Baker has played better than anyone 106.5 passer rating. For the umpteenth time 3. 28 Evans, your not a “gagger” when you play better than anyone. But I know you will continue to ignore that fact because it makes you feel uncomfortable. Gagger, you are hilarious.
April 8th, 2026 at 11:31 am
If you are a true Bucs Fan, then WHY in the hell would you be hoping for THEM to pay over $200-MIL ($50MIL+ per) for ANY aging, beaten and banged up, small, middle of the road QUARTERBACK (under this current regime right now, when we don’t have to), is just beyond me. It’s because YOU are not a true Bucs Fan. YOU are a BAKER Fan, and that is extremely weird as an ADULT.
And, NO… We do not need to DRAFT a QB in 2027. You ‘rebuild’ the ROSTER FIRST. It’s the way! Especially, for an organization like the Bucs. You sign a young dynamic HC and GM that the FANS can trust, get excited about, and rally around for the proceeding rebuild. You sign a “bridge” QB on a cheap ‘mid-level’ contract FIRST. Hopefully, draft Jeremiah Smith. Clear up as much cap space as possible and BUILD. THE. ROSTER. Be calculating on WHEN you’re making ‘your move’ on DRAFTING your new franchise QB on a ‘rookie’ deal. BE SMART. And, you can be LEGIT Contenders for the next DECADE+ starting by as early as 2029, with the ‘right’ Head Coach and GM.
But, handing over $200MIL+ to BAKER MAYFIELD and ‘HANDCUFFING’ us during the next coaching carousel, when we currently have ALL of the leverage (including the franchise tag, & etc.), is just LUDICROUS. Then, you are NOT a true Bucs Fan. You allow HIM to play out the season under his current contract, and you make him EARN IT. I mean, WHY wouldn’t you!? It only makes the most sense. It’s totally ABSURD to be screaming about PAYING HIM NOWWWW… Give him what HE WANTS. It’s stupid and PATHETIC.
April 8th, 2026 at 1:08 pm
See what Raiders paid Cousins to basically be a backup, someone is going to pay Baker whether it’s the Bucs or not. He’d be stupid to play next year without an extension.

Man, the Baker Boi(s) have so much faith in their guy.
April 8th, 2026 at 1:17 pm
MelvinJunior – The big thing is that it makes zero sense to extend Baker now. He’s got a year left, the Bucs could always use the franchise tag if needed. If Baker signed a super cheap deal, like $30M a season, then sure – go ahead and do it – you could always trade him – even if he had a down year someone would take a chance on a cheap deal. BUT, he’s not going to do that, so it makes no sense to extend him coming off a bad year where he let the team down when it mattered the most.
But Baker has this year. The Bucs are giving him no legit competition, they’d handing him the job, it’s make or break time. If he goes out, plays great, wins – he’ll get a gigantic new contract. If he does what he did last year, then Bowles is fired, and a new HC can determine what they want to do.
April 8th, 2026 at 1:56 pm
Melvin listed all the things that he thinks makes Baker look bad with a little slight of hand thrown in just for shiz and giggles like he always does. Well here is what Baker really is: When protected, one of the most accurate passers in the league. One of the best at rolling out and throwing on the run. One of the few quarterbacks to throw the ball in the mid 65mph range, Josh Allen is the other. Has the RECORD for longest throw in a game. Has the best playoff passer rating of ALL time 106.5. “Baker can make any throw on the field”–Tom Brady
Has an uncanny quickness and knows how to use it to extend plays and pick up first downs. In fact, has led the league in first downs using his quick legs. Reads defenses so well Liam Coen wanted him to read the defense at the line of scrimmage and change the play as needed, resulting in the qb with the most thrown TD’s and top 5 yardage and second best passer rating. Great leader. One of the best qb’s to comeback and win a game in the last minute. Even against the best defenses. You can never count him out. With these skills he beat the superbowl champions. I could go on but some of the haters attention span is very limited. Mayfield has never been this teams problem.
April 8th, 2026 at 5:09 pm
And yet they still kept the leaders of the team…
