Not buying that...not in the least.
JB wasn't seeing the field well on Sunday. Rain, rust, whatever. That's unlike him and will improve.
Actually, Mixon had a decent day. Why they didn't grind him. He only had 13 rushes and 4.3 YPC. The game was close for much of the 1st half and we could have run him and Evans/Williams more. That would have opened up the slants/screens and go routes. This had nothing to do with anyone figuring them out. We always put our best up against their best. I'll take our trio of WR against any DBs/CBs in the league. Our WRs are fast, strong and competitive.
Not sure why the Browns front was confusing us, but I still think it's typical early season Burrow rust.
