What To Expect From Baker Mayfield In 2020

The season that Mayfield put together in 2019 for the Browns quite simply was brutal. He was expected to burst on the scene as an elite NFL quarterback. Instead, his performance raised questions about what kind of ability he truly has.

Mayfield has a big arm and a ton of weapons to work with. Having weapons like Odell Beckham Jr., Jarvis Landry, and Austin Hooper gives him a good chance to bounce back with a strong season. Cleveland also has Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt in the backfield.

All of the pieces have been put together to help Mayfield reach his full potential. The Browns hiring Stefanski was a move to help their young quarterback as well.

Let’s dive in and take a look at three statistics the Browns should be expecting from Mayfield.

A Completion Percentage Of At Least 64 Percent

To start, the Browns need a much more efficient version of Baker Mayfield in 2020. He has elite weapons and completing 59.4 percent of his passes isn’t going to get the job done. Mayfield will make a major improvement this year with at least a completion percentage of 64 percent.

At Least 4,500 Passing Yards

Let’s make another bold prediction that would show major improvement from the third-year quarterback. Mayfield has two star wide receivers and a star tight end at his disposal. Due to the weapons he has to work with and the arm talent he possesses, Mayfield should rack up at least 4,500 passing yards.

30 Touchdowns And Just 13 Interceptions

Finally, the Browns are hoping to see Mayfield’s touchdown-to-interception ratio improve dramatically. That is exactly what he will do. Mayfield will throw at least 30 touchdowns and will limit his interceptions to 13 or fewer.
