Week 4 didn’t go the way the Cleveland Browns wanted it to. They hoped for a great debut for rookie Baker Mayfield, who was making his first career start after coming off the bench and leading them to their first win in 635 days the week prior.
Instead, they found themselves on the wrong end of a shootout. While the loss stings, there’s always something that can be learned — especially for a rookie like Mayfield.
The young man had some lumps in this one, and even put the blame on himself. He will surely try and improve going forward, but his head coach was happy with what he saw from the rookie.
