He lost his job. you know, when he came back they just kept PJ Walker in and um Baker Walker got hurt Baker they put him back in against the Ravens um and he went 21 of 33 196 yards two picks with no touchdowns two picks 54.6 passing or rating Rob and sent to the bench again now they're saying in Carolina where they're obviously just looking for Sam Darnold is going to start the next game, so where do you think Baker's career, let's say, the rest of this season and next, when do you know

Do you think it is valid for him? I'm not saying I'm not going to go, let's not skip years later, no, I'm not saying his career is over, at least I don't know if you are, but

what

do you think next year will

hold

for Baker Mayfield? No, it just depends on the situation. As we know, there are always people looking for quarterbacks, half the teams would replace their quarterbacks if they could, so I think that's always going to be the case. I'll be with him, well, but there's always a pit. I asked the Jets. I'm just saying you know what I mean, I don't know, I mean he's better than Zach Wilson, well that's what I don't believe yet.

I don't think so, but I'm just saying there are always teams like that, Danny Dimes with the Giants, is he that good? I don't know Chris. I don't think he's that good. I know he runs the ball. He is a good runner, yes. Yeah, I'm just saying there were teams that were always looking at quarterbacks. I think a lot of people thought Baker would never get this opportunity. I remember everyone was saying that no one took them, no one traded them, his whole career was over. and then, and then, not only did they pick it up on his race result, some people said, oh, no, there's no match for him, no one wants him with that money.

I always thought I was going to get a job and be in the league and this will be another opportunity and who knows, Chris might have to go to a team and wait for his chance again and wait for someone to get hurt or play poorly, you know what I mean, like they never gave him anything. No, I'm not leaving this season, yes, I think it will pass. And you're right, there are these teams that are in Quarterback Purgatory. I don't think any of them are going to hire him and say this is our guy. Next season I think he'll be in the league because I think since he's been in Carolina Rob certainly hasn't played well, but he's shown maturity and look, maybe it's an act, maybe it's not the real him.

I don't know, but the bottom line is that he hasn't been publicly unpleasant, he's not, you know, upset people publicly, he hasn't said anything to upset you, I haven't heard anything right, the only thing and this wasn't that. Great guy, I thought this was a misstep on his part when before they played the Browns, remember he came out in those strapless jerseys, you know, and he was going to come back to Cleveland and you know, show off, show off the doghouse. because he was off leash and obviously didn't materialize, they lost, but other than that, it's not that bad.
I think he's been good, he accepted, you know, he first accepted the challenge of, you know, playing against. Sam Darnold and having to beat him in training camp had done more than damn. He might have gone in there feeling like, hey, I should be the starter. I'm sure he felt that way, but he handled himself well and publicly said he was fine. things and then when he was benched and then he didn't even get the job back when Darnold got hurt like you know he's handled himself well so I think he's shown that he's going to be fine as your backup I'm confident in his Keep in mind that he's thinking he eventually wants to start again, but I think what happens, Rob, is he goes somewhere next year and regresses as a clear guy who's better than him.
I don't think they're my houses, but someone like you know, it's not even a problem, not even a possibility, for a

baker

to start over with this guy, um, and I think he goes there and learns, you know, what it takes , has another year where there is no pressure to be excellent on the field. You're going to learn that you're going to be in the quarterback room, you're going to be in a new system with new coaches and you're going to mature and you're going to learn that we saw it with Marcus Mariota and this year he had the opportunity to be a starter again in Atlanta, which is him.
He's not playing very well, but you know he's good. We saw it with Mitch Trubisky, who went to Buffalo behind Josh Allen. Then this year Robbie got his chance to start in Pittsburgh, he missed it, but he got his chance and that's all you can ask for, so I guess. That's going to be Baker's journey next year, and then I think maybe because like you said, there's always teams that need a bridge quarterback or maybe they think you know you've learned enough where maybe you can play well this season. . and I think he might get another chance to start one year, you know, two years from now, two seasons from now, whatever it may be.
I'm totally fine with that next year, yeah, not next year, but there's always that other opportunity where someone gets hurt or something. happens or a coach Chris that maybe trains with him at some point, you know what I mean, you don't know who gets a job, all kinds of things happen in the NFL and I think that's why he'll be viable somewhere. but he's going to have to go back to work or wait for an injury yeah and look I'm not um I don't know if Baker will ever be a start like he was never a great quarterback in the NFL um I don't know if he'll ever be a start again be a solid headline, I don't know, but what I will say is this, I think we're just Rob, it's reaching epidemic proportions where we're just.
Giving up quarterbacks very early and I know look this is his fifth year so you know he's had a lot of different coaches a lot of different coordinators now two different teams yeah it's been a lot. I mean, that's not like that. to make excuses, it's just reality, I'm right, it's just yeah, and the guys are going to develop and again, I don't see in him that I think he's going to be great, so I'm just saying, overall, yeah. We are being written off too soon. We had Rich Gannon a week or two ago and Rob was like his twelfth year that he emerged and the 12th. 13th.
Well, you wanted an MVP or whatever and that's when they left. to the Super Bowl, do you remember, yeah, I mean, yeah, absolutely amazing, Smith, what's Gino's eighth year like? And it looked like he was dead. MVP conversation, yeah, and I'm just saying there are guys that I just think about and look, a team is trying to win now if you're not ready, well, they can move on, but some of these guys that people are writing off are going to come up. . I mean, Baker hasn't been any worse. Rob that Gino was right. Gino was worse.
I don't think Gino was. really bad, I mean it changed to start the season, we were like, remember, I mean Gino's Pizza, you know all that because it was like no way, no way was it going to do what it did, which has been tremendous, really has been, so yeah, whether it's Baker. or I don't know eventually if it fades a little bit Zach Wilson I don't know, you know, some of these guys won't be, they just won't live up to expectations, but I think a lot of these guys we'll give up too soon, but Baker Rob, I think that's the route that you're going to have to go back to someone, maybe a Tom Brady, someone like that and then get another chance a year after that.
