In a recent interview, Zendaya admitted that when she and Tom Holland first started dating, she didn’t think he was the man for her and she went back to dating Jacob elordi.
“I loved how kind and steady he was, but part of me felt he was too soft… too safe,” she said. “I thought I needed someone more intense. So I went back to my ex Jacob elordi he was more of the man I wanted.
I later realised Tom had always been the real man. Consistent. Kind. Someone you can actually settle with and build a life around.”
Getting back together, she added, felt like coming home. “Sometimes you have to leave the right person to understand why they were right all along.”
The Bucs beat Seattle and took the Patriots down to the wire (and should have won that game). The roster was better than their record showed, just internal issues derailed the season.
I asked Liam Coen to give me a story on Baker Mayfield, a guy he's coached in two places (LA and Tampa Bay), for the pod.
Pure appreciation.
"Baker is a dog. That word gets tossed around a bunch in our profession, but he's a real one. When you talk about a G, he's a G..."
Joey Galloway had 4.2 speed even in his mid/late-30s with the Bucs.
Hardly ever had to show it off because he was so fast that he could outrun most DBs by basically jogging once he got in the open field.

Now that I have graded every snap Baker Mayfield will take in the 2025 season, I can draw some conclusions.
First of all, his average game grade after he tore his oblique was 2.7. He was clearly much worse than his incredible 3.8 average in the first 6 games, but it’s still very good.
A 2.72 is grade-B, and would make him a top 10 QB. Playing without your entire starting OL and your top 3 WRs has a way of obscuring that very good PERFORMANCE on the stat sheet. There is no stat for extending plays in the pocket, making no-look throws, or even throwing accurate balls that get dropped (eyes on you, Emeka Egbuka). This is why we chart.
Mayfield’s deep ball was a lot worse this year, largely because he just couldn’t throw the ball as far or as easily. Whereas Baker threw a post route 65 yards without any wind-up against Seattle, he was struggling to push it 50 yards after his injuries piled up. Once Evans went down, the Bucs also just lacked a deep threat. Egbuka, Godwin, and Shepherd are just… slow. And small. Tez Johnson is great, but he almost never runs the proper route.
On the whole, Baker was really good in 2025. Here’s hoping the 2026 roster and coaching staff makes it more obvious to the casual observer.
In sports, I’m a big believer in, ‘You get punished for bad management in the long run’
The Tampa Bay Bucs should have fired Todd Bowles and promoted Liam Coen to head coach
The Detroit Lions should have made Dan Campbell Team President and promoted Ben Johnson to head coach
The Baltimore Ravens should have fired John Harbaugh and promoted Mike Macdonald to head coach
You can NOT let the only good, young, smart coaches get away from you
Bucs also let Dave Canales go to the division rival Panthers, now the Panthers have bypassed Tampa in the division
Ravens have fallen off, things got way too stale with Harbaugh
Lions fell off
You have to be PROACTIVE in Management not reactive
