Yeah, that INT was was bad bad. But I don't understand Reid's logic of avoiding screens or short middle passes just because Cleveland was expecting it. I'd blame playcalling way more than Henne for that INT.
But regardless that dive for the first was a qb who badly wanted to win. Dudes got big balls and a big heart.
