I didn't ignore one score games, I specifically addressed that. A ton of games in the NFL are one score games. Saying you lost a bunch of 1 score games just means you lost a lot of games, making you a bad team.

The 2020 1-15 Jaguars also beat a playoff team in the Colts. Then they lost 15 straight, including 7 1-score losses.
The 2020 2-14 Jets also beat TWO playoff teams in the Rams and Browns. They still lost 13 straight.
The 2020 4-12 Falcons had 8 1-score losses.
The 2020 4-12 Texans had 8 1-score losses.

In his final 2 games Burrow had 58.1% completion, 416 yards (5.6 YPA), 82.9 QB Rating, and scored just 19 points in over 6 quarters of football. That's a groove? 

Exactly, I hate it when fans, people, coaches, announcers, talking heads and so on try and spin the 1 score crud out there. Like you say every NFL team good/bad/medium loses 1 score games nearly every season.

It's a poor excuse.
