Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 Because Darnold improved less, does this mean Bayliss still thinks Darnold > Allen? 🤔 1 1
Southern_Bills Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 If Mayfield wasn't he should have been. Only thing that hurts Mayfield on an award like this is he had a good rookie year so it wasn't a steady upward tick.

Dablitzkrieg Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 Just one more to get this year....Superbowl MVP 1
mannc Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 He's also the league MVP, although he probably won't win it.

Only thing that hurts Mayfield on an award like this is he had a good rookie year so it wasn't a steady upward tick. Expand Mayfield basically just cut down on his INT's. His other stats are basically on par with his other two seasons. Because he wasn't turning the ball over as much Cleveland had a more successful season. He still doesn't do anything that really wows you, unless you're a paid sports analyst who is also a known OU homer in Skip Bayless. His yards, completion %, TD's are all average QB numbers. He didn't have to carry the offense like Allen and surely didn't make anywhere near the same kind of leap forward. 2 1
Southern_Bills Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 I agree with that, but to Bakers credit he isn't the reason they lose games usually. Would I ever consider him elite? Not a chance. He isn't trash by no means though. 2

Mango Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 Something tells me this award will piss JA off. He feels like he deserves his moment. "Most Improved" feels like a participation trophy. 1 3

I mean shoot, Trent Dilfer, Brad Johnson, Joe Flacco, and Jeff Hostetler all have SB rings without really being special. But Allen is special and we are watching him become great before our very eyes. He was truly deserving of this accolade. 2

He is OK, he'll be a top half starter but always sit at the bottom of top 10 or just outside. He won't be nearly as good as Stafford but better than Jeff Garcia. Who ever the douchier version of a QB that falls in that spectrum, that is Baker Mayfield. 1

LVGrown Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 Where do you guys think he will fall on the top 100 when that comes out (obviously still 1 hopefully 2 games to add to the rep).

Alex got the comeback player of the year award from PFWA.
