Run it back with healthy/motivated Baker + upgraded WR room for one more year -- if he's bad again, bark loud for CJ Stroud!!!
Below average suckage today. Defense and Deebo baby!!Los still hasn't watched Jimmy G play and it shows

It's hard to have a real discussion if you won't just accept he's played well at times.

Well he's capable of pushing the ball down the field. Something Jimmy G cannot do.I watched that entire game.
Tell me, what does Baker Mayfield do better than Jimmy G?
What reason does Baker have to not be motivated? Seriously. Baker has had every reason to play well the last two seasons. He doesn’t need any more chips on his shoulders or any more underdog narratives. He simply needs to play above average on a consistent basis. He’s never done that.
Why should we be confident that Baker entering the final year of his deal is going to come through when he’s had multiple chances to do that already and he’s failed?
Well he's capable of pushing the ball down the field. Something Jimmy G cannot do.
So he managed to make enough plays to win a game where his play was less than stellar and he gets killed for that?
I’m obviously not a Baker guy, but this is ridiculous. I know Jimmy is your guy, but they didn’t win because of Jimmy. Like Baker, he held SF back. Cale offense to run. Jimmy is living off of one great season in your head. Anyway…
2020 Baker, if he comes and repeats, gets a huge extension. 2021 Baker didn’t even need to improve, and he probably gets 30-35 easy. He doesn’t. Doesn’t mean he wasn’t motivated. Doesn’t mean he blew a chance.
2022 Baker is literally playing to ever be a starter in this league long term. This is it. It’s either succeed and get money, or become a back up if the ego can take a hit. It is quite literally the best motivation and his last chance.
Obviously if given the opportunity to obviously improve, they will. But they aren’t giving up assets for an equally as tipsy-turvy QB.
Dude, he was HORRID. I cannot for the life of me wrap my head around this obsession.
Baker and Jimmy run some of the most ridiculously easy schemes plays. Just getting guys ridiculously open, in space. Jimmy just constantly misses. He’s tremendously calm in the pocket, and just flails miserably trying to do anything off schedule.
If anything, he’s your case study as to why Baker would improve with more weapons, because Jimmy arguably has the best supporting cast in football.
Well for starters Jimmy G is not my guy lololololololol
Also 2020 Baker is probably not gold enough to get to the AFC Championship game this season. Is 2020 Baker better than 2021 Justin Herbert? Herbert missed the playoffs. Is 2020 Baker better than Mahomes, Burrow, Herbert, Watson (for now), Jackson, Carr, Tannehill, or Allen?
That’s just the AFC. I didn’t even include Rodgers or Wilson who could be in the AFC next season too.
2020 Baker is not moving the needle in 2021 or 2022 so why do we keep throwing that out there as a measuring stick?
