It’s not every day fans get to see an accurate touchdown like that by Baker Mayfield‘s dime to Mike Evans, right in front of their eyes. The quarterback has put his team in the hot seat, as they destroyed the Jacksonville Jaguars in week 16.

In the final minute of the game, quarterback Mayfield, being on the same page as receiver Evans, took a 16-yard pass to the 22-yard line. After that, Mayfield dropped back and then produced one of the best gameplays as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB. While the receiver Evans was double covered but without the safety backing over the top.

As a result, Evans succeeded in catching the high-point pass from Mayfield and led it to extend his team’s massive lead over the opponent. So far this season, Mayfield has recorded 3,315 yards and 24 touchdowns with a 63.5 completion percentage.

He hasn’t missed a single game this season, which made him entitled to claim a $1 million bonus. If the Bucs succeeded in winning the divisional title and made it to the postseason, Mayfield would get another million dollars. Overall, the quarterback will receive $4.5 million in incentives this season.

Even Bucs’ head coach Todd Bowles praised the quarterback saying:

His mindset is unbelievable, “You know he’s a player’s player. He’s a warrior. He is always encouraging the guys. He leads by not just voice but example, as well. He’s kind of a quarterback/offensive linemen mentality; he’ll stick his face in the fan.

Mayfield is known to be an underrated quarterback in the league, but after this game and his fanbase on social media, it looks like he ain’t underrated anymore. He finished the game with throwing for 283 yards and two touchdowns. Fans even predict that Mayfield will land a huge contract similar to Daniel Jones, as one fan wrote, “Baker is securing a Daniel Jones-like contract and the starting job next season.” Another fan wrote, “He’s definitely in a groove. Hopefully, we can silence the haters and stop the fire Todd Bowles chants.”

It’s truly a proud moment for the Bucs and QB Mayfield, as he hopes to lead his team to the playoffs.
