4 reasons Browns will stomp Steelers, make playoffs for 1st time since 2002

3. A motivated Baker

Baker’s just better with a chip on his shoulder and judging by his postgame comments from New York, he’s taking on all the responsibility of the defeat.

Mayfield committed three turnovers in the game, which usually spells doomsday for any team.

Now that Mayfield can play the “Against all odds” cards that helped him become the No. 1 pick in the draft, he should be lights out against a Steelers team that will likely sit several key starters.

Mayfield actually played decently against the Jets, all things considered. He made the most of a bad situation and had the Browns sniffing victory all the way to the end. Kevin Stefanski is the man responsible for calling 53 passes, so that can’t be put on Baker’s shoulders.

With the Browns at full strength and Pittsburgh playing their JV squad, Baker will deliver, as he usually does against lesser opponents when his fellow starters are active and cleared to play.
