First 9 games: 6 games against winning teams
Final 7 games: 1 game against winning teams
In the final 7 games, they played 5 games against teams picking in the Top 12 in the draft. The only winning team they played, crushed them 34-13.
1st half of the year they played 5 games with teams in the top 6 in total defense in the league and 3 teams in the bottom 10 in total defense and in the 2nd half they played 4 games with teams in the top 7 in total defense and 1 team in the bottom 10 in total defense (Browns were 1 spot outside the bottom 10) so I don't think you're giving the running game as much credit as you should....
