Baker Mayfield is a Carolina Panther

There were reports that he didn't want us, or at least didn't like us as much as Seattle (which is understandable).

As far as the Panthers, word was that it was a debate. Some wanted Baker, other's didn't.

Apparently, the ones who did won the argument.

Considering the deal we struck, the Seahawks must have had next to no interest.

With Geno smith and drew lock on the roster.  With a coaching staff with multiple playoff runs.....hmmmmmmmm

Completely having a bwood style meltdown in here

Clarifying the "condition"...

Not a high bar to clear, but if it's late in the season and we're not doing well, the team could make some... adjustments.

I’ve said once and I’ll say it again, Baker is a woman beater and a jerk but he’s a Panther now and personally welcome him with open arms and open ass 

Send all your women beaters and used jock straps to 800S Mint Street. Pride and morality and common f'n sense be damned!

Not a terrible deal.

What do the stats say about Mayfield’s performance?

It’s been more meh and blah than good in terms of a few overarching metrics. Mayfield’s Estimated Points Added per dropback (via TruMedia) ranks 27th among qualified quarterbacks from the past four years at 0.03 (43 qualified quarterbacks). During the last four individual seasons, Mayfield’s best single season in EPA per dropback (via TruMedia) was in 2020. His 0.12 EPA ranked 39th among all individual quarterback seasons (131 QB seasons) from 2018-2021. Mayfield’s other three seasons:

• 2018: 0.07 (65th)
• 2019: -0.01 (95th)
• 2021: -0.05 (107th)

In passer rating terms, Mayfield’s 88.3 mark ranks 33rd among the 43 qualified passers. Of the individual seasons in the span, Mayfield’s best passer rating came in 2020 at 96.9 (51st) among 131 QB seasons. Mayfield’s other three seasons:

• 2018: 94.3 (63rd)
• 2019: 79.0 (119th)
• 2021: 83.5 (109th)

brees and manning were hurt

 

the pats wanted brady back

 

and that is funny as hell you are comparing 3 HOF qbs to mayfield, any port in a storm I guess

That's the point.  Just because a team no longer wants a QB doesn't mean they are terrible.  I used extreme cases to prove a point.  The Patroits didn't want to pay Brady what he deserved (dumb move).  Manning and Brees were hurt, but recovered fine.  I mean Baker was technically hurt too, he just played through it.  I just love how I clearly stated I am using extreme cases on purpose and you still try to call it out.

so you admit it was a stupid thing to post, thanks

His point is you can lump that Darnold trade in with many other trades and make it look bad.  We all agree that trade was dumb and so was the extension.  That doesn't mean this trade is....

Been watching that dude since he was in HS he turned his back on being a Texas longhorn talked a bunch of sh*t then went to OU and pissed off the Texas tech fans and is just generally a huge douche and crybaby. 

Aren't you living in Austin? From there? Had he went to Texas and played ok ... how would you feel? Are you basing this off of something a high school kid did?

[nogoodbum]

Compared to the last two QB trades this is much much better. Will Mayfield be great, average, or so-so? Who knows. At least this trade leaves enough meat on this year's salary cap bone to possibly add another upgrade elsewhere.

You have some serious issues man.  Learn some reading comprehension without getting so freaking triggered.  I used EXTREME cases to show the FLAW in his logic.  No where does it say Baker is a HoF QB or anywhere close to being as good as any of those guys.  Just because a team no longer wants a QB doesn't mean they are terrible and I illustrated this by showing damn good QBs that had to switch teams.  I can't believe I'm having to break this poo down for you.  It's like arguing with Sizzle....
