Baker Mayfield’s wife really tried to show the world he is not as many people think he might be. The way she tried to do it only got her blasted on social media.
On Wednesday morning, Emily Mayfield informed the sports world that some in the Browns fan base had been sending death threats to the quarterback after his lackluster performance against the Green Bay packers that resulted in four interceptions.
The sympathy for him quickly ended when she posted the below picture that showed Mayfield’s stats after four years which were better than Brett Favre and Drew Brees.
There is one glaring difference that she did not know.
“Anyone wants to tell Baker Mayfield’s wife that Favre and Brees sat out their entire rookie seasons and played in a different era of football without today’s passing rules that favor the offense so much?”

Along with four interceptions, Mayfield threw for 222 yards on 21-of-36 passing and two touchdowns against the Packers.
In 13 games this season, he has thrown for 2,825 yards, 15 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions while completing 62.4 percent of his passes.
Next up for Cleveland is a Monday night showdown with the rival Pittsburgh Steelers. It is a must-win game for the Browns if they are going to make a late playoff charge considering they are 7-8 and 12th in the current AFC playoff picture.
