For crying out loud, he said as much.
TJ Watt had the most tackles in the NFL for, what 4 years straight? Put a rookie on him and think Mayfield had a real chance? When they doubled up on Watt, then they got nailed from the other side. What choice did he have but to get rid of the ball ASAP?

Last year showed he can step up if he has the support.

I like Mayfield gibraltar72 Jan 2022 #1

Yes. But I think playing behind the rookie tackle rattled him and forced him to make bad throws. Auggie Jan 2022 #5

Awesome observation :) YP_Yooper Jan 2022 #16

Never been fully convinced about Mayfield's ability at the NFL level. I agree about Stefanski Raven123 Jan 2022 #2

The Browns are a running team first and foremost. A very good one. Auggie Jan 2022 #8

Mayfield has sucked for more then 80% of this season Botany Jan 2022 #3

Maybe both. bluedigger Jan 2022 #4

I agree -- give Mayfield another season. Sign a F.A. receiver. Get more help in the secondary. Auggie Jan 2022 #9

I couldn't have said it any better, Auggie. Diamond_Dog Jan 2022 #6

Thanks Auggie Jan 2022 #10

Mayfield is already guaranteed for next year exboyfil Jan 2022 #7

It's a lot easier to be dissatisfied than it is to have a viable plan of what to do. RockRaven Jan 2022 #11

Exactly where the Steelers will be next year. YP_Yooper Jan 2022 #13
