CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield says the boos and criticism he's received while leading the NFL's worst-ranked offense during a 1-3 start is "completely fair.''
"I pride myself on being a guy that elevates the guys around him and being able to lead at an extremely high level,'' Mayfield said Wednesday. "And obviously, that has not happened yet.
"So I'm working really hard on that. And it starts with me just doing my job the very best I can and going from there. Yeah, I take a lot of blame for that and I consistently will.
