What you saw last night is what will happen when an organization buys into the same crap the media nad fans shovel. THat its Joey BRRRRRRR who changed the culture. When the reality was the defense was AWESOME on that run and now that the defense is garbage the team will float around .500 no matter how good the QB is.
The defense played well in the playoffs, they were not great all season. That is a myth. Also, the uninformed fan doesnt realize that Lou's defense is 1000 times better playing with a lead.
It is silly to think that Burrow did not change the team, he absolutely did. I know this firsthand. Herbert is not on Burrow's level as an all around QB, thats just a bad take.
The defense is apparently garbage and last night showed that we can score on every possession, except one, and still lose, this a terrible situation that may not be fixable.
