If they had played better we probably could have hit some deeper stuff, but I’m pining this one squarely on the defense. That final Browns drive where they went down the field in 2-3 plays for a TD without throwing once was as embarrassing as anything I’ve seen out of this team in recent years.

Yes, overall, they were bad. They were also gassed on that last drive. They did, however, make a huge stand, got an INT, and made another 4th down stop IIRC. The offense couldn't capitalize the way they should have, and gave the ball right back in one instance. Put it this way....without some maximum effort from our skill position guys on a couple plays, and Burrow's ability to block out the negatives and keep on grinding.... that's easily a 35-10 kinda game due to the sheer ineptitude up front. I'm no expert by any means, but I've played on some Little League olines that could play better than these guys. The most concerning thing? As bad as Fred Johnson looked out there last night, that must mean Price is even worse. Yikes!
