He was awful last night, but he is not the same QB as he was a year ago. He'll be fine for next week against San Fran.
As for the game itself, poor QB play+no pass rush=loss.
2 plays that changed the game were the 70 yarder to Edwards after Giants went up 7-3. Browns had playeed really well, and were still losing. They shut them down on that series, the crowd would have soured and the Giants would have got the motors running and blown them out.
The other play was the 2nd Eli INT. Just cut the lead before half. Get tha ball to start the 3rd quarter, which is the best time for the road team. Have a chance to take the lead, crowd was ready to crumble and Eli brought them right back into it.
The last INT wasn't a game changer, imo. By that time, the game was over. Even if they score, I do not think the D would have held Cleveland to give the O a chance.
