Tale of the Tape - Browns vs Vikings
-
…......... Rush / G Pass / G Sack Run D / G Pass D / G Sack Give/Take Browns 175 3rd 260 17th 27th 67 5th 182 6th 2nd -2 Vikings 128 10th 310 7th 9th 119 20th 290 27th 5th +1 Thanks to the complete collapse of the Bears' offense, our D tells a tale. Our D was credited with giving up 1 passing yard and 46 rushing yards. We went from 22nd to 6th against the pass. So, the D stats are all skewed up.
The Vikings are strong offensively both rushing & passing. Their prowess at passing is troubling since defending receivers has been an issue until Fields and the Bears rolled into town.
If we can exploit their lower ranked defense then this is a game that we can win. So, it's a game that we should win. And it's a game that we really need to win because we're at the Charger, followed by the unbeaten Cardinals & Broncos at home.

Agree. I have a feeling it will be a shootout type game. The Vikings definitely have some weapons.

Vikings CB are castoffs from other teams - Peterson and Breeland were almost perfectly useless last week, giving up 13 catches on 15 targets.
Vikings spent a lot on IDL -- Michael Pierce [9M] and Dalvin Tomlinson [10.5] are both PFF 70 rated.
Fun facts: Sheldon Richardson is not balling. Malik McDowell is.

Yeah Breeland Has been awful…we can pick on him.
The Vikes have been exposed by cutback runs. You gotta be right in that regard when you play the Browns.
Maybe I’m too overconfident…but I like this matchup our O vs their D.
The questions this week..
Can the Browns confuse and pressure Cousins? We have to watch our pressure too they use the screen game really wellCan Newsome hold up against Thielen?
Can our run defense show out like they have in the first three games?
I think we are good for a win if we get 2 of the 3.

Kirk Cousins doesn't scare anyone... He's average

Neither does Baker if you ask other teams…but Cousins uses his weapons well and plays a scheme perfectly fit for him that doesn’t ask too much in regard to showcasing arm talent.

Except Baker is 10x's more athletic and accurate...
Nickers...."There are no old running QB's in the NFL "~Sam Rutigliano~ -
Vikings being 4th in the league in passpro efficiency also helps.
Of course, Vikings opponents to date have been the Bengals, Cardinals, and Seahawks.. and only the Cards have anyone more than just another guy on the DL. Yes, you can only play who the schedule tells you, but you have to scroll pretty far to get to Vikings OL preview

Cousins is no pushover. He's been playing quite a while now. He won't be holding the ball as long as Fields did.

The Vikings offense is a legit professional unit.
The Bears offense Sunday was a trainwreck. Rookie QB with a coaching staff who did him zero favors behind a Swiss Cheese OLine.
The Vikings offense will be an interesting challenge for the Browns defense.

Is Cook running the ball? If he is, the defense will have a big time challenge

Is Minnesota a dome again?
I
Yes.
It is a fixed dome too, not retractable. It's always closed.
