And he’s benched.... Lets face it, Johnny is an idiot and his style of play does not translate to a professional grade defense. When in doubt he just throws the ball, anywhere, wherever, and hopes his team catches it.
Dude was a product of the system, NFL talent all over the field and the SEC hype machine. Lots of QBs would have put up crazy video game numbers. Look at the gawdy numbers put up by the Tech QBs when Leach was there. Graham Harrell put up better stats with less talent around him. Johnny wasn't even the first to light up the SEC with the Air Raid. Tim Couch had similar numbers with far less talent around him.
It helps when Mike Evans is on the other end of those heaves. Evans was pretty dang good.When in doubt he just throws the ball, anywhere, wherever, and hopes his team catches it.
I honestly think Mayfield has a pretty good chance to be a productive qb in the NFL. I'm not predicting Tom Brady success but I believe he has more talent than many of his predecessors have had.Bingo. I've been saying this forever. "System QB's" and their style of play don't transfer to the NFL. Another good example will be Baker Mayfield and the bust he's about to become.
Well.... when all you have to do in Cleveland to improve upon last year is win one game, I think the bar has been set pretty low for what defines "success".I honestly think Mayfield has a pretty good chance to be a productive qb in the NFL. I'm not predicting Tom Brady success but I believe he has more talent than many of his predecessors have had.
