By one measurement Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield had his worst game of the year against the Las Vegas Raiders. Now, it fortunately came in a 28-13 win, but we've now seen the Buccaneers quarterback complete less than 63 percent of his passes twice in the past month including this past Sunday.

Mayfield’s personal experience, like Young’s, also crossed paths with current Panthers head coach Dave Canales. Canales, of course, was the Buccaneers offensive coordinator in 2023—where he helped guide Mayfield to a career rejuvenation.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were unsure what to do when they lost Tom Brady to retirement in 2022. They found a replacement for former number-one overall pick Baker Mayfield, and he is now poised to show how much this place has helped him in his career.

Baker Mayfield didn't play well against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 14, but the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense is fortunate enough to have a very potent ground game to lean on when the passing attack isn't effective.
