It took until quite literally the last play, but the Browns beat the Titans. Daniel Jones threw an interception. Ashton Jeanty and Josh Jacobs both went under their respective rushing totals of 49.5 and 47.5, and both legs of our two-part Rams parlay — moneyline vs. the Raiders and Blake Corum 40+ rushing + receiving yards — hit.
I'm pumped to have responded from a bad Week 6. But as anyone in the NFL would say, the best thing to do after a win is stack wins. So let's get to stacking.
We, as an NFL-viewing public, are being robbed of one of the most fun players to watch. Trey McBride is an absolute monster, but he's stuck on yet another bad Cardinals team. He has have at least seven catches in nine consecutive games.
Last week, McBride had 10 catches for 111 yards and a touchdown against the vaunted Broncos defense. Now he faces a less-than-daunting Cowboys defense. The Cardinals will have to throw a ton to keep up with Dallas' offense, which should tear apart an overmatched Arizona defense.
Expect another huge day from McBride, the most underappreciated superstar in the league. If he played for a team with any playoff hopes, he'd be getting his flowers week-in, week-out. The Browns haven't won a regular-season game in Pittsburgh since 2003.
I could leave it there, but that'd be insincere analysis; this Browns team shouldn't have to answer for past Browns teams. Still, I don't think they will end the streak. The Steelers have a bulldozing running game, and more importantly, they're finally leaning into it.
