From the episode

Baker's got to calm down... Baker's a gunslinger. And so you're going to have some big throws that he misses. But that interception last week was so, like he has had back-to-back weeks of just like, not just a bad INT, but oh God, so bad.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Mayfield's back-to-back bad INTs create concern vs. Vikings blitz.

Baker Mayfield has struggled against the blitz through two weeks, posting back-to-back weeks of poor interceptions—not just bad decisions but egregiously bad ones. Matt Moore expresses significant concern about Mayfield's decision-making under pressure, particularly facing Minnesota's blitz rate, though Anderson argues the kitchen sink trend and Mayfield's home underdog status override these concerns. Mayfield is 42% ATS as a favorite for his career, creating skepticism about Minnesota's favored status.
