Van Pelt addressed footwork in the presser, although not to the degree he did with throwing mechanics re: the shoulder harness. He said Mayfield regressed a bit in the GB game, and fell back into bad habits a couple times. He said not practicing for 2 weeks could be a factor because those footwork mechanics need regular work. I know some will say it was excuse-making, but I think its reasonable in the absence of any other reason for Baker throwing off his heels on the airmailed int to Landry and on the int to the left where it looked like his cleats got stuck in the turf before he could get square to the throw.

I did think there was a disconnect between Van Pelt's comment and Stefanski's answers to the same questions.
