B/R Staff NFL Week 15 Report Card: Cowboys Start Run Toward Postseason - Bleacher Report

Ross D. Franklin/Associated Press

In a fun twist of scheduling, the two previous Heisman Trophy winners went head-to-head Sunday. Not only did Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray both hoist football's most prestigious trophy, they also played together at Oklahoma.

Obviously, the former teammates wanted to get the best of one another, and Murray and the Arizona Cardinals came out on top with an impressive 38-24 victory.

This year's No. 1 overall selection threw for 219 yards and a touchdown with a pick while adding 56 yards on the ground to become the Cardinals' all-time single-season leader in quarterback rushing yards.

Last year's No. 1 overall pick didn't fare quite as well. Mayfield threw for 247 yards, a pair of touchdowns and an interception. But the bulk of his yardage and the second score came during garbage time.

     

Mike Freeman: Mayfield, B; Murray, A

Mayfield wasn't the reason the Browns lost. He was solid enough. But there remains a disconnect between the quarterback and his best receiver, Odell Beckham Jr. Murray, meanwhile, continues to demonstrate why he was the first overall pick in the draft. He has one of the best futures of any young player in the league.

Mike Tanier: Mayfield, Incomplete; Murray, B+

As always, it's impossible to grade a Mayfield performance until he announces who is to blame for it. Whereas, Murray has had a quietly impressive rookie season. He spent most of Sunday just handing off to Kenyan Drake and waiting for the Browns to self-destruct, however.

Brent Sobleski: Mayfield, C; Murray, B

Neither quarterback played great or all that poorly. Sure, both missed certain throws and had turnovers, but the difference came down to coaching. Kliff Kingsbury knows how to scheme a cohesive offense. Apparently, Freddie Kitchens doesn't.

Brad Gagnon: Mayfield, C; Murray, B

Mayfield did not play well and missed too many throws. And he wasn't even under much pressure. Murray was more efficient while getting the victory, but he didn't really have to do much or take any chances. I'll also say this: One coach makes things a lot easier on his quarterback, and the other does not.

Gary Davenport: Mayfield, C; Murray, B

Mayfield's passing numbers don't look terrible, but much of that came with the game out of hand. Murray wasn't spectacular, but he made plays when he needed to and didn't make many killer mistakes.
