All true - but they don’t wear you down. Having to throw 45 times doesn’t kill clock and help your awful defense. Mixon wore you down.
Look at the 4th quarter of the Ravens losses - offense can’t chew up clock.
In the first one - bc Burrow could only throw he ends up throwing a bad INT. Bc the Ravens couldn’t give a dam about Zach Moss.
Brown’s lines all look like this: 21 carries, 84 yards - longest run was 30 yards. So the other 20 carries are 2.5 yards per.
Plus, the moxie he brings it’s just different.
Having a God awful defense - it’s great you score immediately after a 1 play 70 yard TD to Chase drive. But your D was just on the field for 8 minutes. No break. They get gashed again another long drive allowed.
The Bengals are the ones getting wore out - not the other way around.
