Mayfield led the league in completion rate in Week 1 (82%) and averaged a respectable 7.71 yards per attempt, but it didn't feel like that as he took four sacks and ranked 24th in fantasy points per dropback.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Mayfield's 24th-ranked fantasy PPD and sack issues offset strong completion rate and YPA.

Risky start in Week 2 vs. Cleveland Browns despite facing weak defense. Led league in completion rate (82%) and averaged 7.71 yards per attempt in Week 1, but ranked 24th in fantasy points per dropback and took four sacks. Buccaneers looked bad overall; unclear if rust, Mike Evans absence, or legitimate issues. Ground game significantly outperformed passing game, suggesting run-heavy approach may continue. Wait-and-see approach warranted.
