The Browns pulled their foot of the pedal otherwise the score would have been more lopsided.
But your response to my post. Read it carefully Ocho, I did say that we don't match up well with the Browns and that has been going on for years. I am saying today that even if we had a 100% healthy squad we may not have beaten them at their place or ours. The gist of what I wrote was about last years week 17 of many "fools" rooting for the elimination of the Steelers on Monday night compared to the rooting of the elimination of the Browns.
Yes, I was still saying that when the Browns were up.
This team had just two wins coming into the game.
Most teams found a way to beat them.
Bengals were considered one of the contenders this season, and they have a pretty good QB and receivers along with a stout defense, so they should have had their way against this mediocre-at-best team.
I know what you said, but a quality set of coaches will always adapt playcalling (offensive and defensive) to the strengths and weaknesses of the opposition.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
