4 years agoCleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield will be under center on Sunday when his team makes their first playoff appearance since the 2002 season. Cleveland will head to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers on Sunday night in the Wild Card round of the playoffs. The Steelers represent a difficult matchup for Mayfield as they finished the 2020 season ranked as the top overall team in pass-defense DVOA, according to Football Outsiders. Mayfield and the Cleveland offense will also be without head coach and play-caller Kevin Stefanski, who will miss the game due to contracting COVID-19. In addition, the Browns have not been able to practice all week as their facility has been shut down. Thanks to the tough matchup and difficult extenuating circumstances surrounding the Browns, fantasy gamers participating in playoff leagues should treat Mayfield as a low-end option for contests this weekend.--Matt T - RotoBaller
