Baker Mayfield is looking better through the last two weeks than he did in the Week 1 loss. Thank goodness. But how exactly has Baker gotten better?

“If he can settle, fight that urge to find comfort in chaos, and work through his reads like we’re seeing more of (he was better too against the Bengals) then this could work,” Schofield said.
Here’s what he saw on Sunday from Mayfield:
