By now you’ve probably heard that Baker Mayfield wasn’t on the Rams very long before leading his new team to a dramatic win over the Raiders on Thursday night. He got to L.A. on Tuesday night and was a hero some 50 hours later.
In between, there was a lot of studying and not a lot of practice with his teammates. Sean McVay told reporters after the game that in the one practice Mayfield participated, he got in a whole 20 plays. There were two 10-play periods he was on the field for and “he made some throws and was able to do some different things.”
