IDK about the vanilla theory, could be some merit to that. Someone else noted above it's like the get complacent with a lead. Could just be a youth thing.....could be the calls....could be the opponent adjusting and us not countering fast enough, IDK. But to my eyes, it looks like a young squad taking their eyes off the prize. Play calling doesn't cause horrible INTs and fumbles (NE), or overthrows, missing a WR running wide open for a TD and throwing to the TE in traffic, dropped passes, audibling into a screen that gets blown up, etc.
This is one big issue I got with Burrow he does seem to lead his guys right into big hits sometimes like the Tee hit. He can fit the ball in tight windows but that also leads to big hits that can sideline your players like the Boyd hit to head and Tee getting air knocked out of him. I know it is a AFC north game but damn that Tee hit was brutal. I have seen this in past weeks as well.
