Baker Mayfield has that mischievousness about him again
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ margin for error coming into the season was pretty high for a team that had low expectations and a quarterback the rest of the league passed on.

Baker Mayfield is doing his best Tom Brady (at 45) impression
A season ago, the Philadelphia Eagles eased into the playoffs, and the No. 1 seed, behind Jalen Hurts, a great defense, and a favorable schedule.

Ever wonder what the worst team of NFL starters would look like? Here it is
On an individual level, NFL Top 100 Player Lists are what get people excited. We get it. Patrick Mahomes is number one and the most competitive race is the scrum for number two.

Baker Mayfield’s whiteness keeps getting him NFL starting QB jobs
Baker Mayfield didn’t do anything wrong. The crime that keeps getting committed is done by the owners, general managers, and coaches who keep giving him endless opportunities.

Baker Mayfield propaganda is back in full effect for 2023

Now that tra...

What’s left of free-agent running back Leonard Fournette’s SUV was on the side of a major highway on Tuesday, as the former LSU star posted on his Instagram footage of the frame of his black car burnt to a crisp, all while he was allegedly driving it.

Justin Jefferson among the 25 best NFL players under 25 years old

How every NFL team should draft, but won't because GMs are dumb
