Like the great read and throw by Burrow to Higgins late in the game for a first down only to have Higgins drop a first down catch and room to run. That’s a good call by the coaches, adjustment, reading the defense and throw by burrow but the execution at the end failed.
I know Higgins is a good receiver, I know he has good hands to make catches other receivers can’t, but it seems that he is having a slump. I’d like to see him get another ball or 2 thrown his way to try to work him out of it.
Tee had a couple of drops. Sample and Chase also had drops. Spain had a huge drive killing penalty that probably cost us points. In addition to his 2 picks Burrow also had a couple of terrible throws on deep balls that could easily have been intercepted.
Lots of little things you can't blame on coaches.
