How bad is Baker Mayfield?

Historically a 71.9 rating 30 or 40 years ago would have put you in the middle of the pack.

For comparison, HOF QB Terry Bradshaw has a  71 career rating.

But in today’s NFL it means you are dead last, really suck and should be relegated to a backup (at best).

My question is why is he so bad? He was not this bad in Cleveland. I believe that the offense the Panthers are running does not fit his strengths. McAdoo is on record saying he did not want to draft Baker. I wonder if he was forced on McAdoo even though he does not fit his offensive scheme.  
 

Also McAdoo’s offense looks terrible…why? I mean this guy has had some success in the NFL. I will be interested to see if Rhule was micromanaging the offense and that’s the reason why it looks so bad. I guess we will find out but with a 4th string QB it will be hard to know. This team has playmakers on offense  and they have a solid O-line. This offense should not be this bad I have to wonder if Mcadoo and Baker are just a bad marriage.

Walker is 2 inches shorter than Mayfield. I, for one, can't wait to see how many batted passes he has. My guess is... fewer 

Pretty interesting we're going into a game with a 5'11" guy and probably a 6'6" Eason as the backup. I wouldn't be surprised if Darnold is activated tmrw if that's within the IR rules, pretty sure he was eligible to come off IR last week and and he's been walking around with no boot or limp for a month already

    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel. 
    • Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
