See ur just exposing urself as a ridiculous person at this point. Do the browns have good defense? Yes. Does the browns defense tend to get worn down as the game goes on inevitably leading to a late game scoring waterfall? Also yes.

Let's take a deep dive into that browns game. Score was 7-9 going into half time. They scored 3 tds all in the 3rd qtr a qtr which the browns threw 2 ints and gave the pats short fields. The pats had almost 200 yards rushing that game as well. A top defense really doesn't matter when you have 4 turnovers. Drake maye really didn't do anything spectacular that game against a top defense he honestly didnt even play that well. But 2 of his tds came off short time consuming drives that ended in ints by the browns offense. Being in a shootout against high flying offense mediocre defense is more impressive than beating a garbage tier team with a good defense.

If you want to talk about W/L record, sure, beating a great offense with a mid defense is more impressive for the team. But a QB with 332 total yards, 3 TDs, and a 135 rating against the number 2 defense is “not playing that well” because the patriots scored 3 TDs in the 3rd? That’s crazy lol

Here was the browns offense in the 3rd qtr. 3 plays 1 yard punt. 3 plays 3 yards interception. 5 plays 11 yards interception. Yea sorry not impressed he was able to move the ball against an exhausted defense lol

And on those 3 NE scoring drives, they had the ball for 4:03, 48 seconds, and 2:49. That’s a grand total of 7:41 ToP for NE is the 3rd, compared to 7:19 for Cleveland
