Hard to complain about a 9 minute drive but that last three plays were abysmal. Sowell and the TEs get you down there and nothing called for any of them?

Why would you utilize the advantage of the tallest guys on the field when vertical space to operate is compressed. Makes zero sense.

What's the deal with Brahmer? Is he double-covered all the time and thus gets no looks? I thought he would be a stud but he doesn't even seem to be at Luke Reynolds level.

They should have shown his missed tackles per game on the graphic.

I can't believe they just spotlighted Ebel. Were they doing that ironically?

Lynn is really failing as a DC. Consistenly sets the wrong defense.

My biggest issue is he seems unwilling or unable to adapt but maybe he just doesn't have the personnel he needs
Has to be better either way

There's a lack of blocking but, generally, when there's a lane he takes advantage of it

Seriously. So many injuries it is unfathomable. Sowell was giving it his all this season. Only transfer worth the money.

Did you see the non block by Goodman on that play? No wonder he doesn’t have time. Goodman is Nogoodman!

One of the biggest disappointments of the year. Seems scared to get hit in big boy ball.
