As a bucs fan who followed Canales before, throughout, and after the season, I think people are giving him way too much credit for reviving Baker's career. Sure he might've helped but I think Baker and the Bucs would've still won the NFC south without him in 2023. His play calling was below average and it feels like Baker's own desire to prove himself is the true reason for his success.
@@mylespoun9709it was below average he ran the ball at the highest rate on first down and second down, had the highest rate of screens his play call was pretty predictable from a Bucs fan. He does not deserve all the credit.
@@bowclipscarter634 The offensive line is terrible and Rashaad White is a terrible running back when it comes to purely rushing. Of course you are going to run more and have screens when you can't protect as well. There is a reason Canales did so well with developing Geno back and Baker as well.
@@mylespoun9709the offensive line has perennial all-pro Tristan Wirfs, promising guard Cody mauch. Grading rachaad white as a pure runner is stupid because that’s not his game, he’s a pass-catching back
The browns vs chiefs divisional. That play on the goaline where the chiefs player hit the browns player straight helmet crown to side of helmet, wasn't called for Illegal contact. Then ONTOP of that, the chiefs were then awarded the ball off a fumble. That's one of the all time screws in sports.
Browns defense didn't hold up when it mattered most that game either. Had them backed up on forth and short bit broke tackles and got the game winning first down.
@jayanthsambaraju6562 oh yeah that did happen that game didn't it. Yeah that was also a back breaker. Shame the defense then wasn't what it was last year.
Honestly if you look at it now, the Browns are in shambles after letting go of Baker and are stuck with Watson also they act like this man didn’t revive their whole organization
@@tactful_colt8536that’s what you and some other people think, but for a while before the rebound, he got so much hate. You can see the trend when you look at comments on videos about him over the years
😂 We Literally Had Arguably The Best Defense Last Season & Have One Of The Best Rosters In The Whole League..The Browns Are Not In “Shambles” 😂 Injury Was The Only Thing That Hurt Our Season
@CalCambridge Deshaun Watson has played like a bottom 5 quarterback since y’all traded for him. Your Super Bowl hopes are counting on a bad quarterback becoming way better while your team gets worse
Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen have had the luxury of consistency with John Harbaugh and Sean McDermott throughout their career... meanwhile, Mayfield has had EIGHT head coaches, and just as many OCs
@@Chet_24 Williams would have at least been a decent bridge coach. He could bring the best out of the players more than Kitchens. They shouldn’t have let Baker help pick the new coach.
Same here. I would LOVE to see him get a ring....once, if not multiple times. That's the thing about being an Okie, some of us are team-chasers. We don't have an NFL team, probably never will. Notice I said probably.
The Browns made a mistake. They'd be so much better off with Baker and his price than Watson. -- He might never win an SB or be an MVP but he can be a 4-6 year Top 10 QB.
Calling Cleveland a struggling franchise is a major understatement. They were more like cursed. Baker literally broke the curse. Browns have been solid ever since, even without him.
I remember week 17 of 2021 when the Browns still forced him out there even though he was clearly hurt and they had no chance at making the playoffs. They also had a rookie tackle guard TJ Watt in that game. I remember Baker was getting killed all game and everyone knew that the Browns were trying to run him out of town after that
I remember when Cleveland made this deal & I argued with sooooooo many fans bc they saw was old deshuan he was gone.they did baker sooo much that his did for the browns & for the city alone,
Browns fan here, although it makes me sad we released him because I know for a fact one day he will be a fantastic qb.. buuut the browns organization is a joke and would have run him to the ground till he retired. I’m excited to see what he can do in Tampa surrounded by an organization that was good enough for Tom Brady to leave the patriots
Baker was awesome in that game. He scored 48 points against Georgia. Georgia barely beat Oklahoma on a last minute touchdown. Oklahoma's defense was terrible. BAKER HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT LOSS. BAKER PUT UP 48 POINTS ON GEORGIA. CLOWN
So many fans were ready to throw baker under the bus & thay started swearing they’d win a Super Bowl now and that baker won’t do shit,baker was the savior to this franchise as soon as they smelt blood in water it was ridiculous.they gave baker all the motivation he coukd ever ask for
its crazy that if he had decided to have the surgery after he messed his shoulder up he would probably still be with the browns cause the only reason they moved on from him was because of the bad season
that 11-5 season and playoff win in Cleveland should have cemented him there for a few years. instead, Cleveland signs Watson to the dumbest contract in the NFL and gets rid of Baker - beyond dumb.
He could have 6K yards and 60TDs and the media won't vote for him. He'll be labeled a system QB. He lost out on rookie of the year and comeback player of the year because of their bias.
When you put Mayfield in a system where there are structured plays and situations, he has fewer choices on the field which plays to his strengths. Just don't let him improvise because that's where he fails.
To me Baker never fell. He just needed to let that labrum fully heal just like Drew Brees did and it took basically 2 full years before his arm felt anywhere close to normal. I do respect the hell outta Baker for trying to keep going but you definitely have to let your body heal with and injury to your throwing arm like that.
There's a rumor that Rams tried to trade Stafford to the Jets before they got Rodgers so that they could keep Baker. There was also another team I forget.
What is so great about his story?? Yea he is doing good with the Bucs, but let's be real....... He was a NUMBER ONE OVERALL PICK! He got picked over the likes of Josh Allen, and Lamar Jackson. This is what's expected from Mayfield as a number one overall pick to be great. Not hating on the video, but the way he said his story is so great.
I'll never understand the browns gm why would you have your franchise quarterback play through injury after injury instead of sidelining him and then decide to throw him under the bus.
Too premature to say because it’s just one season. Plus, he could get dinged by having a new offensive coordinator once again in addition to everyone studying film on him. Falcons are on the rise and could dethrone him and the Bucs
Anythings possible but this time he doesn't have to split reps with Kyle Trask all camp when learning the new offence. People really underestimate how detrimental it is for a QB on a new team learning a new offence to have to split first team reps for an entire camp, it wasn't until August 22nd last year that Baker got named the starter, this time he will come out of camp much more comfortable than he did last year so i expect him to do better. 35 passing TD type year as long as he and the O line stay healthy.
Odel Beckham was the end of Baker in Cleveland!! The Giants were so sick of Beckham, they punished him by sending him to the Browns! Beckham wasnt getting the ball enough and divided the locker room! Soft Kevin Stephanski caved and sided with Beckhams crew and tried to ruin Mayfield! Browns organization went all in on low character Deshawn Watson setting the organization back 10 years! Now Baker is thriving and Stephanski and Berry will be looking for new gigs! O.I.C.

Ad a Browns fan...... ur right .
Same. Thank you jimmy haslam
The browns don't deserve shit their fanbase sucks and their organization would rather spend $200 million for a overrated women respecter
It’s crazy how he, Geno, and Sam darnold got good coaching and turned their careers around
Baker Mayfield is lowkey what we all hoped Manziel be. But he’s got 10x the work ethic and heart. I’ve always been a fan of
THATS MY QUARTERBACK
LETS GO BUCS
LETS FUCKING BAKE
WOOO LETS GO TAMPA BAKER

@@iceice021 Hows the upside doing right now?
@iceice021 still enjoying that "upside"?
Baker has the most heart I’ve ever seen
Cleveland tried to ruin this kid but Baker wouldn’t allow it and even injured tried to ball out in spite of that team .
Been a Baker fan since the big playoff win over Pittsburgh. Hope him and the crew can kick some serious ass in the south this year.
That Iowa state win was a defining moment for coach Campbell and a sign for good things to come.
Like what? Runner up in the Big12 one time? Campbell misses the boat and now he's an afterthought
Watched bakers rs year at OU and being a OU fan since birth it was the most exciting football I’ve ever watched
The Browns had their guy, and it STILL wasn’t enough. And yes, they should have kept Gregg Williams over Freddie Kitchens.
Not hiring Gregg Williams as head coach was a huge mistake.
@@Chet_24 Williams would have at least been a decent bridge coach. He could bring the best out of the players more than Kitchens. They shouldn’t have let Baker help pick the new coach.

Baker, Baker, Touchdown Maker.
He's our guy.
Go Bucs.
Even though I’m not a bucs fan, I’ve been a Mayfield fan since Cleveland screwed him over.
I never counted my man out!!!!!! Baker-nomics #6!!!!! Let’s Go! Let’s Go!!!!!!
You failed to mention how OBJ bullied Baker and turned the coaches and locker room against him in order to cover his own failing skills.
Really?
Baker Mayfield with the Buccaneers was a jackpot move!! I hope they get back into the Playoffs and make a Super Bowl run!!
Same here. I would LOVE to see him get a ring....once, if not multiple times. That's the thing about being an Okie, some of us are team-chasers. We don't have an NFL team, probably never will. Notice I said probably.
Shoutout to Baker and his continued success from a Packers fan I love to see it. Baker is what's right with football ngl
As a packers fan from Ohio I second this every good game he has I think Cleveland Suk it
bro hes on pace for 48 tds RIGHT NOW THIS SEASON LMAOOOOOOOOOOO
People are going to be really confused when he gets an MVP and a ring next year.
This aged very well.
Would be such a redemption arc as a Texan fan I hope he wins it !

Love your video J&D and keep up the great work you are awesome
As a bucs fan, I was excited to see him with more weapons than nick chubb
We are fortunate we went from Brady to Baker. Mayfield is a stud! Glad he is my QB
I would like to thank the city of Cleveland. Your trash is our treasure. Sincerely, Tampa FL
He’s now 2-0 with an away win against a tough Detroit team

@maryyaj You're right, within *TWO YEARS!*
Doubt it but even as a Falcons fan I can't hate baker. I will always wish him the best at least until we play him
funniest part is barely mentioning the 2018 rose bowl against UGA, don’t really wanna remember that game lol
Baker was awesome in that game. He scored 48 points against Georgia. Georgia barely beat Oklahoma on a last minute touchdown.
Oklahoma's defense was terrible.
BAKER HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT LOSS.

went straight to the comments after hearing that
He's a beast and he will win 2 Superbowls
So good to see Odell Beckhams downfall, and Baker Mayfield rise up.
He's had more OC's than years in the league
When Jimmy G got hurt i wanted the 49ers to sign Baker so bad i thought he would've been elite with Shanahan, but it end well cause Purdy is better
Baker mayfield is the 2nd or 3rd best QB the Bucs have ever had behind Brady. Keep it up 👍🏻
I watched this with 3 games left in the season and Liam Cohen is and in my opinion go further than canales
that 11-5 season and playoff win in Cleveland should have cemented him there for a few years. instead, Cleveland signs Watson to the dumbest contract in the NFL and gets rid of Baker - beyond dumb.
It’s crazy thinking, Texas Tech didn’t offer a scholarship after he was basically the starting QB the year before
7:42 ?
Am I tripping or is the national championship footage/part of this video missing ??
