This week, Game of Thrones gave us an all-time great episode. Without spoiling too much for those who haven’t gotten the chance to watch this week — although you should stop reading if you want to avoid knowing anything about the episode — there were some delightful reunions and a battle at the end that may have been the best in show history. (As always, head here for wall-to-wall coverage of this week’s episode.)
Anyway, among those who watched Game of Thrones this week and had their socks knocked off was Browns defensive lineman and No. 1 pick in the 2017 NFL Draft Myles Garrett. He had a criticism: Garrett wasn’t happy that the show ended with a cliffhanger, which you can read about right here.

When Game of Thrones decides to end a show with a really great cliffhanger, it’s usually something that leaves you frustrated that you’re not watching next week’s episode yet — for example, the cliffhanger at the end of season six, episode two was so maddeningly good that I still get chills thinking about it, but that’s neither here nor there.
Anyway, Garrett is like many people in that he was in awe at how the episode ended, although you think that watching terror and destruction unfold would remind him a lot of playing for the Browns.
