From the episode

I'm probably a little bit less bullish about this matchup for Mayfield versus Consensus. Mostly because I think Cincinnati's defense got better compared to last year
Mentioned at 3:37 – 4:52

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Mayfield has a strong game environment but faces a tougher Bengals defense.

JJ Zachariason is less bullish than consensus on Mayfield's Week 1 matchup due to an improved Cincinnati defense and secondary, though the strong game environment (23.5 implied total, 50+ game total) and an 8th-ranked matchup per adjusted points allowed suggest he should be fine.
