The play before that was 2nd and 2, you are up by 22 in the mid 3rd quarter. Why the heck not run the ball (and the clock)? Had they done that, even if they didn't get it a QB sneak on 3rd would, assuming they simply run between the tackles. would pick it up.. Had they simply played smart football it would have saved many of us a couple grey hairs and those mistakes will costs us the game against playoff caliber teams.
Getting too pass happy led to the meltdown, logically it made no sense.
That being said, I am still very proud of the franchise.
Absolutely, the playcalling balance was a mess. I get trusting your MVP-calibre QB and all, but Burrow had 52 attempts in a game we were 22-0 up in at the half... just no logic for that.
