Amid a revived feud between Baker Mayfield and Kevin Stefanski, the Buccaneers‘ new OC delivered a strong public message that added fuel to the ongoing NFL debate over respect and success.

On Tuesday, Buccaneers writer Brianna Dix shared Zac Robinson’s comments on X from his recent media conference, where he praised Baker Mayfield’s impact and confidence as Tampa Bay’s quarterback.

“When you have a guy like that, you have a chance to win every Sunday,” the tweet read. Robinson added, “Probably the best in the league throwing on the run.”

Those words reflect what Mayfield has shown in Tampa Bay, using his mobility to extend plays and deliver accurate throws outside the pocket. His ability to stay calm under pressure has helped the Buccaneers’ offense stay aggressive, especially in key moments.

“It’s a big deal. You know, we got Baker in 2022,” Buccaneers’ new OC said to media. He added, “We had some injuries at the quarterback spot. I’ve known of Baker for a long time…he diced us up every single time we played.”

Mayfield’s impact goes beyond stats. His ability to read defenses, extend plays with his legs, and deliver accurate throws under pressure has proven crucial for Tampa Bay. Even amid injuries and a tough season, his leadership and poise energized the offense, validating Robinson’s praise and showing why Mayfield quickly earned respect in the locker room.

Robinson also highlighted Mayfield’s dedication and preparation, pointing to his detailed, color-coded notebook and quick learning of plays. He added that Mayfield’s arrival energized the locker room, brought leadership, and positively impacted Tampa Bay’s offense during a challenging season.

Baker Mayfield’s work ethic, leadership, and playmaking ability have energized Tampa Bay’s offense. Robinson’s praise underscores how Mayfield’s preparation and poise make him a pivotal force, proving he’s not just talented but a true leader for the Buccaneers.

Baker Mayfield vs. Kevin Stefanski: Fallout continues after the Cleveland days

Baker Mayfield and Kevin Stefanski’s feud is back in the spotlight. Fans are still talking about their time in Cleveland and how Mayfield reacted after Stefanski’s recent move to Atlanta.

Mayfield and Stefanski spent two seasons together with the Browns in 2020 and 2021. In 2020, they went 11-5 and made the playoffs, even winning against the Steelers for Cleveland’s first postseason victory in 26 years. Stefanski won Coach of the Year that season. But 2021 was tougher. Mayfield battled injuries, including a torn labrum, and the team finished 6-8 with him as the starter.

After Mayfield left Cleveland in 2022, the Browns traded three first-round picks to get Deshaun Watson and signed him to a $230 million deal. That move, combined with Watson’s contract, is seen as one of the worst in NFL history. Stefanski stayed as coach but only managed one playoff season with Joe Flacco in 2023.

Mayfield, now with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has made $100 million and led the team to two playoff appearances, winning the NFC South both seasons. Recently, he reignited the feud on X, responding to criticism about his Browns tenure.

“Failed is quite the reach, pal,” Mayfield responded in a repost of D. Orlando Ledbetter’s comments, which he wrote on X last Tuesday. He added, “Still waiting on a text/call from him after I got shipped off like a piece of garbage. Can’t wait to see you twice a year, Coach.”

Mayfield’s tweet highlights lingering tensions, while Stefanski continues coaching in Atlanta. Their past in Cleveland still shapes headlines, showing how player-coach conflicts can remain part of NFL storylines even years after a team split.

The feud between Mayfield and Stefanski shows no signs of stopping. While their paths have diverged, both remain influential in the NFL, and fans will continue watching closely whenever their teams meet.
