Former First Take and Undisputed host Skip Bayless has all the time gone to warfare for 7-time Tremendous Bowl champion Tom Brady and can defend him to the top of the earth.
That’s why it’s no shock he went scorched earth on Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield for his current feedback about Brady.
Bayless just lately took to X and went at Mayfield for his feedback, saying “I’ve defended Baker for maturing, saying all the right things. But now on a podcast he says Brady kept the team on edge, stressed, purposely threw balls away on plays he didn’t want called. I’m sure much true there but Baker: A BUNCH OF YOUR TEAMMATES HAVE RINGS BECAUSE OF BRADY.”
I’ve defended Baker for maturing, saying all the proper issues. However now on a podcast he says Brady saved the group on edge, confused, purposely threw balls away on performs he did not need referred to as. I am certain a lot reality there however Baker: A BUNCH OF YOUR TEAMMATES HAVE RINGS BECAUSE OF BRADY

Baker has by no means been one to chew his tongue, and neither has Bayless, particularly with regards to even a perceived slight towards Brady.
His former co-host, Shannon Sharpe, solely mildly criticized Brady one time and Bayless went again at him so violently and personally that it brought about the fallout of their partnership.
For reference, Baker stated about Brady earlier this week “The building was a little bit different with Tom in there. Obviously, playing-wise, Tom is different. He had everybody dialed in, high-strung environment, so I think everybody was pretty stressed out. They wanted me to come in, be myself, bring the joy back to football for guys who weren’t having as much fun.”
Simply because Baker is totally completely different from Brady doesn’t imply this group doesn’t love him simply as a lot, and with the group doing so properly, there’s no manner one thing as fickle as this quote goes to fracture the locker room.
