CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Carolina Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield didn’t mince words Wednesday when asked to assess his performance during an 0-2 start.
“Not good enough,’’ he said.
That’s fair, since statistically (albeit only two games), Mayfield is on pace for career worsts in several major categories.
His total quarterback rating (23.7) ranks 32nd in the NFL and is by far the worst after two games in his career. He opened the 2019 season with a 43 rating, and each of his other seasons has been 61.5 or higher.
It’s light years from his final 2020 rating of 71.
