The Browns won't be the last team to lose to the Ravens this season, but the manner of the defeat hinted at familiar issues in Cleveland. Baker Mayfield's figures were similar to Burrow's, as the Cleveland quarterback finished with 189 passing yards, one touchdown and one interception for 65.0 passer rating that ranked 31st out of 32 quarterbacks in Week 1 and marginally below Burrow's 66.1.
Two years removed from being selected with the first overall pick of the 2018 Draft, Mayfield's regression is increasingly becoming a concern and reignited the debate over the lack of chemistry between him and star wideout Odell Beckham Jr., who only had three catches for 22 yards on 10 targets in Week 1.
On paper at least, the Bengals are the ideal team for Mayfield to get back on track as the former Oklahoma star has a 100.5 rating and 10 passing touchdowns in four games against the Bengals, the most against any of the teams he's faced since making his NFL debut two seasons ago. Even with Beckham and Mayfield struggling, the Browns still produced 306 yards of total offense with Kareem Hunt and Nick Chubb combining for 132 yards rushing and the running game could be key for both teams on Thursday night.and has scored a touchdown in five of his last six primetime games, while Chubb has averaged 104 yards from scrimmage per game in his last five primetime games.
Joe Burrow of the Cincinnati Bengals celebrates with teammates after scoring his first career NFL touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers during the first quarter of the Bengals' season opener at Paul Brown Stadium on September 13 in Cincinnati, Ohio.
