These are all good assumptions to make but considering the 2025 season was consistent with 50% of Bakers seasons in the Pros

Regression to the mean, discount to near zero all potential causation? Um . . . okay. In a season where he carries the team in the first half, no less.

The number of NFL teams that would follow that analysis after 2023, 2024 and 2025 . . . has got to be close to zero.

I think you only make that argument to support your "no more premature extensions," and that is a fair point, even with the creative choice in argument.

wouldn't say first half...first 6 games he carried us to comeback wins.  Then he was one of the main reasons for our demise

Listen we can be like other bad franchises and prematurely extend him - view Dolphins and Cardinals and ask how they enjoyed the Tua and Murray contracts

I don’t think they would move forward if Licht/Bowles were truly on the hot seat, so if Baker gets an extension…

He plays 2026 like he did 2024 and let's throw him 5 years, $275M

This would be totally and utterly fucking retarded.

He's getting 50, 55M  per year and with guys like Rodgers, Stafford playing late, you dont think his camp is going for 5 years?

your "bargain" of 4 years, 180M is not living in the real world.  He only gets that if he is ass cheeks again in 2026 and why would we want him at all if he repeats 2025

Sorry. Can’t take anyone seriously that puts Baker in the same category as Stafford and Rodgers. Clown shoes material.

You echoed those same sentiments prior to me accurately predicting both he and Godwin’s extensions (Godwin’s literally on the penny with terms, length, guarantee….its almost as if I….)

Speaking of “reality”, you’re advocating that he be paid like a Top-5 QB. 

🤡👟

Doesnt mean that both are. 

One could be though…

Stafford and Rodgers.

Time and place, Baker and Stafford have similar #s.  

Rodgers is the best thrower of the football ever, so I'd agree with this.

talking about longevity and that QBs playing into their late 30s

bakers camp will push for 5 years. I’m with you that 3,4 years tops 

45M a year. Yeah maybe 5 years ago

It’s also 50% more than his current AAY. 

The guarantee I offered was DOUBLE that of his last deal. 

The numbers put him within Top 11-14. 

Per usual, you’re simply talking out of both sides of your mouth.

last 11 games, his QBR was 20th best 

he had 14 TDs good for 14th best and 10 INTs second to only Tua at 11 INT

Let’s assume he starts 2026 hot, gets banged up but playable, few injuries to other players here and there (typical in nfl season) and then has comparable numbers to 2025; you are pounding the table to sign him to a 4 year deal?

Do the whole season. 

Not your cherry-picked sample size.
