Ok, I like and agree with some of what you said, however, how is blowing a second half lead not the same as last year?

That is similar, but how it played out was different. AV missed a long FG to set up a short field. Maybe he should not have been asked to kick it, but it was maybe a yard short, so if he hits it, we likely win this game. Further, Doyle dropping the football with us close to a winning score is not like last year, is it?

Lucks interception Doyle fumble Odd play calling in Red Zone and the penalties on the last Cincy TD cost us the game. The defense... while not stellar... played well enough to win except for some stupid penalties. It will be different when we play the Pats Eagle etc but there is more to blame than the defense

The D gave up 330 yards.

Jax gave up 324 today to the Giants
Houston gave up 389. Albeit to the Pats
Browns gave up 472 to the Steelers
Steelers gave up 327 to the. Browns
I’m sure I can find others but again the D is not all to blame

You mean Doyle's fumble is different than Brissett throwing an interception? Ok I guess it's not similar then...

Fair enough. I apologize for the hostility of my original response to your post.

Luck is a talented QB, but for a guy with a rep for being so smart, he sure does make some dumb ass throws.

To be honest, Peyton made some head scratchers in his career, too.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he got a concussion, at the least. That (dirty)hit by the Bengals safety was vicious.
