From the article

Mayfield was playing in a downpour but did not have to throw since the Buccaneers were having tremendous success in the running game. He will be facing a good Chicago Bears defense next week but can be considered a No. 2 fantasy quarterback.

Mayfield's zero passing yards in Week 8 driven by game script and weather, not decline.

Baker Mayfield completed zero of three pass attempts for zero passing yards against Atlanta in Week 8, rushing for 14 yards on four carries. The source attributes the lack of passing volume to heavy rain and the Buccaneers' success in the running game rather than poor performance. Despite facing a good Chicago Bears defense next week, Mayfield can be considered a No. 2 fantasy quarterback.
