Before OBJ Manning 58.5%
after 62.6%
Mayfield has been far better throwing the ball to literally anyone else. His QBR targeting Beckham over the past three seasons is 58.0 (scale 0-to-100). But to every other Browns wide receiver, it is a combined 85.2.
according to ESPN Stats & Information
Mayfield is better when OBJ is off the field

I don't believe it just because Dan orlslovky is talking about one game without obj. I will breakdown this a little better. Obj for one had been hurt it's going to hurt his production. Number two Cleveland has been a dumpster fire until last year. Number three obj is going to command attention and gameplanning to limit his open looks which would explain some of his production dips. Number 4 baker mayfield is not a premiere qb or Eli Manning that late in his career either. They force OBJ the ball with the Giants because he was the only weapon in wr core. With browns they had some other good targets Landry, and te sorry don't follow the browns at all.
If you research what went on and read the full story you will see you cannot dump 100% of the problem on mayfield. It's just lazy. It's all about "my team got OBJ" so he must be good.
I do not know what will happen in the future but there is no fair way to say that everything is on manning and Mayfield
OBJ was left to walk by the Giants. What did they know? And elite skilled receiver and they let him go
Cleveland signed him and let him walk.
So, when is anything going to be his fault?
Nothing? When are people going to stop making excuses for the guy?
Sure, give him a chance but the facts are he'd run wrong routes, he dropped more balls in Cleveland than NYG, he'd show up Mayfield,
I am not saying it's ALL on OBJ, but it cannot be 0% his fault either.
