He led his team to win 6 Super Bowls before signing to play for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. During the three seasons he played for the Bucs, he steered them to a Super Bowl after 18 years. Brady was the golden goose the Bucs paid for and the fans finally found a savior. But, after he hung his cleats, the organization has been suffering from a difficult phase.

Mayfield has the upper hand in the faceoff as he has more experience, but Trask has played with the GOAT and has the potential to fill his boots.

Fans are not remotely happy with the poll. One of the fans commented, “They could just as easily go 11-6 as 6-11, just no way to predict it at this point“.
