Browns vs. Buccaneers NFL parlay: It's Baker Mayfield's payback game, but Tampa Bay QB already has last laugh

Baker Mayfield is set to take on the Cleveland Browns for merely the second time in his career as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers host their home opener. 5 points.

Afternoon conditions at the stadium anticipate an 88-degree high, easterly breezes between 5 and 10 mph, and a 60 percent likelihood of rain amid scattered thunderstorms.

Mayfield initially entered the league as Cleveland's top selection in the 2018 draft following their winless campaign, producing seven victories that year before guiding the team to 11 wins and a postseason triumph over Pittsburgh in 2020. Despite struggling through a major shoulder issue in 2021 that precipitated a trade to Carolina and Cleveland acquiring Deshaun Watson, Mayfield remains the sole Browns quarterback to win a playoff matchup this century, retaining post-Bernie Kosar franchise records with 29 victories, 14,125 passing yards, and 92 touchdown tosses.
