The source expects the Buccaneers to 'pretty much do what they want to do on offense' with Baker, Baky, and Igbuka, but notes 'I'm having a difficult time with the projection. He's going to run for some yards... I just can't get the passing yards up.' Context: only 11 pass attempts last week in blowout; season-long stats have been poor due to backup QB play and injury. The source further notes 'we've had Baker playing injured and play playing not that well,' which depresses passing yard projections despite adjusting for career production. Seasonal stats for Tampa Bay offense are weak, limiting upside.NegativeProjectionOct 22, 2026

The source suggests that if Baker returns to form, Tampa Bay's offense could stabilize.NegativeProjectionJul 13, 2026
