Since leaving the Browns, on the combined Panthers, Rams, and Buccaneers, Baker Mayfield has put up:

33 games (31 starting), with 656/1030 (63.69%), 7191 yards (6.98 YPA), 46 TDs, and 20 Ints, and a 91.0 passer rating.

Normalized to a 17 game season, that is:

348/547, 3820 yards, 24 TD, 10 Int, 91.2 passer rating

Deshaun Watson’s stats on the Browns, meanwhile, over the same time period, in a combined 16 games:

295/489 (59.3%), 2944 yards (6.05 YPA), 18 TDs, 12 ints, 79.5 passer rating

Normalized to a 17 game season, that is:

313/519, 3128 yards, 19 TDs, 12 Ints, 80.0 passer rating

Of course, if we make this just Baker’s Tampa years (or his healthy years, depending on how you look at it), his stats become, over a combined 21 games:

455/695 (65.47%), 5028 yards, 36 TDs, 12 Ints, 96.8 passer rating

And, normalized to a 17 game season:

368/562, 4070 yards, 29 Tds, 9 Ints, 97.35 passer rating

And lastly, it is worth noting that over that period of time, Baker has made a combined $52,207,999. Deshaun Watson has made, comparatively, $91,367,500.

I’d say one was more worth his money than the other, wouldn’t you?
