Also ignoring the fact that they lost 3 1 score games against Cleveland and the Colts(2 on the final drives). They also beat a playoff team in the Titans. Joe was starting to find is groove if he was able to stay healthy then yes the team would have won more games in all likelihood.
The same impact that went 2-7-1. It clearly wasn't enough impact in 2020 to win more games in the first 10 tries, why would the final 6 be magically different?
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?
