Sharp take
Sharp SixStartWrong · −2.6Mayfield's game carries a 41.5 total with Tampa laying 8.5, which is the profile of a team running the ball in the fourth quarter. Burrow sits in a 45.5-point game as a 3-point underdog, the script fantasy quarterbacks actually want, and he outscored Mayfield 17.7 to 16.8 in Week 1 anyway. Season projections have Burrow ahead by better than 30 points. The only thing that changes this is the questionable tag turning into something worse. Start Burrow if he plays. Mayfield is your contingency, not your upgrade.
