The Browns took the ball down the field at the end to seal the game without throwing a single pass! Everyone and their brother knew what was coming and they couldn’t stop it. Chubb and Hunt gashed them for 20/30+ yds at a time. Just completely pathetic.

And they also had a huge hold on the goal line for a stop while the Bengals were only down by 8 in the 3rd quarter. What did the offense do? Turn it right back over.

And they also had a huge INT while down 12 which allowed the Bengals to pull within 5.

Week 1 they allowed 16 points and got 2 more turnovers on 4th down stops. What did the offense do with those 2 turnover on downs? Punt and punt.

The losing points from Week 1 was because of an offensive fumble that turned into a FG.

Is the defense this year GOOD? No. Is it "the worst in the league"? No. They have given the offense multiple opportunities and the offense hasn't capitalized. 4 turnovers in 2 games have turned into 7 points for the Bengals and 7 points for the opposing team (by turning it right back over). That's not good.

Tackling wasn't good in Week 2, but they went up against the best backfield in the NFL and the offense still had opportunities to win that they squandered.
