But refused to throw the ball downfield in the process. I agree he didn't make any bad mistakes, or at least not more than maybe a couple, but he didn't really make any plays either. After the 1st couple drives that is. He did avoid those sacks, but they only got close because he refused to throw it. I thought he looked incredibly gunshy.I thought Mayfield played pretty well last night. He was masterful at avoiding sacks and turnovers, against a defense that specializes in both. Mayfield scrambled his way out of 6-7 sacks last night, that would have gotten to many QB's.
I would agree that he showed improvement, though, but they would have lost most games against most teams the way he played last night. To play devil's advocate, I know he didn't need to make many plays and that could have been conscious. Pittsburgh was toast last night and they knew it.
ETA I'll keep this out of the Garrett suspension thread, got mixed up.
