Football is a game of 'mental momentum'. The moment that the Clowns stopped the Ravens on that 4&1 Wildcat fiasco; mentally they begin to feel that they can hang with the Ravens. Look what's happening!
 
This is dramatically simplified. Plus Stephens gets targeted a million times a game. So from your logic he's playing poorly. Then on top of all those targets, he has like no PBUs or even just follow throughs to get an incompletion
Oh I wasn't arguing he was playing well, though being opposite Humphrey means you will get targeted a lot because they are not going after him. I more think that people get overly caught up in the flashy stats for CBs when at its core what the job of a CB is is to prevent the reception. It is the reason I think its silly when people were saying that Diggs was a good corner a couple years ago because he had all those INTs while he also gave up by far the most yards in the NFL at the same time.
 
It takes crazy effort for us to get a yard, it takes crazy effort for us to force a punt.

On the flip side, Cleveland is easily getting our offense off the field, and easily marching down the field.
We're clearly playing bad. Players need to be better. On offense the OL, Lamar, and Zay. On defense the whole teams tackling minus Hamilton is ass. The CBs who are out there blow. The Safeties also blow. DL cupboard is empty so Nick Chubb is gonna kill us. No pass rush.

And on top, I think we might have the stupidest group of coaches in the league
