I fully expect to see a more poised Baker Mayfield in his return to Raymond James Stadium and against the team that drafted him and sent him packing after four seasons... there's no one in the history of sports who wants to beat his old team more than Baker Mayfield wants to beat the Browns this week... Mayfield has the right opponent, his former team with a bad defense, to rip to shreds in Tampa's home opener.

Mayfield poised for revenge game against former team with weak defense at home.

Mayfield faces his former team in a revenge matchup at Raymond James Stadium; multiple analysts expect him to bounce back after a turnover-plagued Week 1 outing and exploit Cleveland's weak defense. Brooke (NFL.com) expects "a more poised Baker Mayfield in his return to Raymond James Stadium and against the team that drafted him and sent him packing after four seasons." John Breech (CBS Sports) frames this as "the greatest revenge game in NFL history," noting "there's no one in the history of sports who wants to beat his old team more than Baker Mayfield wants to beat the Browns this week." Vinnie Iyer (Sporting News) states "Mayfield has the right opponent, his former team with a bad defense, to rip to shreds in Tampa's home opener. Baker will burn the Browns plenty." Bill Bender (Sporting News) projects Mayfield to even his record against Cleveland at home after losing his only other start against them in 2022.
