Yet Joe and the offense kept answering back and running up the score hoping the defense would make a stop that never occurred.
Including games against the Chiefs, with how the refs call the game, is looking at things through dirty glasses.
The seasons we went to the SB and AFC title game: "You can't say that the defense bailed Burrow out"
This season: Burrow isn't winning games because the defense is so ass.
Pick one. You can't have both. The team was more successful when Burrow didn't have to be that guy 100 percent of the time.
Now that he has to be, we're not winning games. And in those losses, I can point to many game-defining moments where Burrow and the offense failed to show up on multiple occasions.
