Yes, they played well today. The defense is not close to a problem.
I agree. Defense kept us in the game. The score was only 16-3 until the 4th quarter when the Bengals decided to go for it on 4th down, failed and gave the ball to Cleveland on the 18 yard line and of course Cleveland scored again. What is the defense supposed to do in that situation? The offense kept sending the defense out there in bad situations. Defense gave us a chance like they always do. Burrow and the rest of the offense just blew it. Good job defense.
