Baker Mayfield Big numbers in Week 7 loss

Mayfield completed 31 of 45 passes for 370 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions and added five rushes for 22 yards in the Buccaneers' 41-31 loss to the Ravens on Monday night. He also threw a two-point conversion pass.

Fantasy managers certainly won't begrudge Mayfield's final numbers, but they were largely a byproduct of a game script that had the Buccaneers trailing by 24 early in the fourth quarter thanks to 34 unanswered points from Baltimore. Mayfield also lost Mike Evans to a hamstring injury in the first half shortly after hitting him on a 25-yard scoring strike, making the quarterback's final yardage tally, his highest of the season, all the more remarkable. Mayfield has surpassed 300 yards receiving three times in the first seven games, and after Rachaad White added scoring throws of 11 and 23 yards in the fourth quarter, the veteran signal-caller now has at least three touchdown passes in three straight games. However, Mayfield may have a hard time maintaining his strong performance in a key divisional matchup in Week 8 against the Falcons; In addition to the possible loss of Evans, Chris Godwin was dragged off the field in the final minute of Monday's game with what Scott Smith of the team's official site relays said was a possible dislocated ankle injury. Head coach Todd Bowles expressed concern in his postgame press conference.
