So Brady is coming back.

I knew Brady wasn't retired. Just thought he'd figured out a way to not play so many games. Bucs had too many older players miss games last season because of that ridiculously long schedule they play. Bucs need to go Popovich with their older players and rest them regularly during the regular season. They can waltz into the playoffs in the NFC, so missing 4 regular season games for all of their older players, including Brady, shouldn't impact their ability to make the playoffs. They play in the same Division as ATL, NOP and CAR. 9 Wins gets you that Division Crown. Rest them against the NFC West opponents, because their Division Rivals are all going to go ofer against them, anyway. You can then concentrate on winning the intradivision games and the intraconference games, where the wins are worth two games as far as tie-breakers are concerned.

BAL's Defense just got a lot better with the addition of FS Marcus Williams ($70M/5yrs). They're hosting just released DT Eddie Goldman on Friday.
BAL is making a serious run to be relevant in the AFC by building a Top-5 Defense. They still have Lamar Jackson. They added a RT to replace one of two they lost. Bengals could make a huge dent by stealing their C.

Nothing would make the rest of the Division happier than to see CLE leave Mayfield their starting QB.
From NBC Sports w/ NBC Sports comments:
Baker Mayfield has posted a cryptic message to Browns fans on his Twitter account.
Forgive the gossipy news description, but we weren't sure what else to call Mayfield's multi-paragraph message to the people of Cleveland. "I have given this franchise everything I have," Mayfield said. "That is something I have done at every stage, and at every level. And that will not change wherever I take my next snap. Whatever happens ... I just want to say thank you." Alrighty then. The Browns and Mayfield were basically already in open combat before the team met with Deshaun Watson on Tuesday. Now the breach appears irreparable. Not that Mayfield really possesses anything in the way of leverage coming off his dismal 2021. Nevertheless, stay tuned.

I wouldn't mind him as a project rebuild in LV where he can sit and watch (until Carr either leaves as FA or demands a trade to a real franchise with a plan) . Baker was so beat up last year and tried... but some just aren't able to raise their games through such injuries.

I've always been high on him since seeing him at Oklahoma, he's been too Brett Favre gunslinger without the proper arm talent to make up for questionable decision making.
