Jared Goff was 18 for 18 but didn't get a perfect rating or game ball

NFC South stock up, down: QB soaring, but this Falcons receiver hits bottom

YardBarker - 81 days ago - A quarter of the way through the 2024 NFL season, we're assessing who's trending up and down in each division. Here's the NFC South's stock report from Weeks 1-4: Mayfield is having an even better Year 2 in Tampa Bay than in 2023, when he received his first Pro Bowl honor and finished third in the Associated Press Comeback Player of the Year voting. He quickly put the Bucs' ugly 26-7 loss at home to the Broncos in Week 3 behind them, throwing for a season-high 347 yards in an easy 33-16 win over the Eagles on Sunday. Mayfield is completing 70.5 percent of his pass attempts, 6.2 percentage points higher than last season, when he had a career-high completion percentage. His production has been key to Tampa's 3-1 start and one-game division lead. If he maintains his current pace, the Bucs should win their fourth consecutive NFC South title and Mayfield will be in MVP conversations.
