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
