Todd Bowles on Baker Mayfield’s three lost fumbles. He’s fumbled 35 times since 2023, the most in the NFL during that time.

Well said from Coach Bowles. However, I did find it very interesting how Jackson Dart is a completely different quarterback with Harbough as his coach… Jackson Dart was exactly like Baker Mayfield by doing absurdly reckless things that quarterbacks should not be doing. Dart was doing perfect QB slides and got out of bounds before being hit. No turnovers. His team won. The head coach always bears some sort of responsibility in my opinion, based off of play style alone of their QB that they should be coaching.

I saw him running around for his life because their defense got through the O-line. Liam Coen didn't have that problem

NFL needs to normalize playing in the preseason again. If you get hurt you get hurt but it’s almost the same as showing up rusty and not being able to snap out of it. Also needs to learn how to throw the damn ball away like some of the greats.

The majority of those 35 fumbles have been center<>QB exchanges. None of the 3 yesterday were Center issues, however.

it's because he's not actually fast like Lamar, Caleb, or Daniels where defenders struggle to even get a hand on them. With Baker Defenders are able to look for the punch/strip 🤷‍♂️

Agree 💯 sometimes Baker will try to get that extra yard, and there is nothing wrong with that. However he is a QB not a RB, get that first down, then go out of bounds or be aware of your surroundings. He is less resigned because we need him on field, or worse injured. Let’s go B

heading into week 1, Josh Allen had the most turnovers in the NFL since 2018. No one mentions that anytime he loses a game because he had turnovers. Baker had a horrible game. He didnt have 35 fumbles in the game, so why are you mentioning them?

Nice…he threw Baker under the bus to the media. Wow that’s really low and not a quality characteristic of a head coach.

Situational football is so important. Baker is Baker but he needs to understand when risk is appropriate and when it’s not. Ball security reps need to be increased at least one of those was preventable with better habits. He will get better. I believe in him.

When are you gonna call out bowles? He is just a repeat of the defense of last year. That defense line was terrible yesterday. Ask vita if he felt his play yesterday was worth his raise. U have to call bowles out.please

11 lost fumbles out of that 35 and that's not counting the ints. Some people think you can coach this out of Baker but hes had how many coaches and he still turns the ball over. Hes not good.

Not sure if I can take another season with Bowles as HC. He hardly ever has the team prepared and his game planning and management has been mediocre at best.
