Mayfield worst on intermediate throws; 3.4% turnover-worthy rate.

Mayfield is the worst starting QB on throws between 1-15 air yards this year and has been inaccurate too often, missing receivers on their back shoulder most frequently. He's showing a lean-back release motion after throwing, suggesting he knows he's shanked the throw. Mayfield also had a pair of interceptions in this range because he didn't have a feel for zone defenders crashing on the ball. His turnover-worthy play rate of 3.4% is third worst among 28 qualifying QBs since 2025.
