A player is only as good as his OC & Head Coach.

Baker would not have long term success with the current Saints coaching staff.

Good for Mayfield though. He found a way to win.

In all fairness, DA had the foresight to continue to play the red haired QB over Jameis, even if Jameis is still technically injured albeit heathly enough to play, allegedly. Our third string option is not really an option as we've discovered. We had a chance to get a decent QB for simple $ and no draft picks, even if for the balance of the year and a potentially reduced contract next year as he fights for his second contract.
