And Baker Reagan Mayfield will be the starting CAR QB.

I predict some interest there.

Either way... I guess we can effectively say Mayfield went from being a DAWG to being a "PUSSY" ...'meow' ... This is a tough one to call.. But strangely.. I like the clowns in this one by a Cade York FG or PAT.

Myles addresses some of that in this interview, but I also heard him without falter state that Jordan Elliot has come back in far better position to play well than anyone would have expected. That is music to the ears for those like tia concerned about the IDL. Go to the 13:19 mark if you want to only hear that comment, but the rest of the interview he addresses the Carolina game and Baker being named QB.

jacoby will be 19-24 for 280 yards and two t.d's one to cooper and one to felton

we will have a combined rushing yards of 343 yards and t.d's from chubb and two from hunt

special teams...... cade will hit all his p.a.t's

★ final score ......Browns 42 panthers 7 ..... you have our BROWNS 0.5 from covering the OVER by themselves

Well syd you sound pretty confident in our BROWNS in WEEK 1. This is from our friends at vegasinsider.com. updated May 14, not current enough and those are lines not predictions.

Cleveland Browns -3.5
Carolina Panthers +3.5
Total 42.5

Deshaun Watson will make his first start since January 2021 this September. Cleveland dealt a ton of draft capital to Houston in order to bring in Watson, and one of the teams that was also in on the quarterback was Carolina. The Panthers know that Sam Darnold is not the answer and hope that rookie Matt Corral can be the long-term answer to their quarterback issues. ....... oooops no Deshaun guys, but I think Jacoby can do enough to win. Even over Mayfield. I'm not sure on the numbers quite yet. .

Maybe CLE 28 CAR 24 ? OVER.

While we're talking about lines, updated May 14....not current enough.

Were the Cincinnati Bengals a one-hit wonder or will they be a Super Bowl contender again this year? Joe Burrow was exceptional in last year’s playoffs, but Cincinnati has some major questions along the offensive line and with its defense. Reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year T.J. Watt will test Burrow’s protection in Week 1.

And......

Baltimore Ravens -4.5
New York Jets +4.5
Total 45

I predict Schwartz will drop 2 passes that hit him in the hands.

I predict the game thread, and multiple threads after the game, will be especially spicy. ?

I'll be 3 hours away in the wilds of northwestern Pennsylvania that weekend, so you mods can breathe easily. ?

But I fully expect the Panthers to pull one out. Hope I'm wrong.

This game has all the signs of a Browns loss, especially since they rarely (oops, never) win the opener.

Therefore it's the Browns 23 Panthers 14 #woof

A Browns victory and I may be there to witness it in person

No way. Mayfield is toast. And why would you want the Browns to lose?

I didn't say anything about "wanting" them to lose... Mayfield is far from toast... I'm gonna gonna laugh when hes up there holding a Lombardi long before the Browns ever do...

b.) That is music to the ears for those like tia concerned about the IDL.

a) what we don't know is what Elliot's conditioning will look like late in crunch time.. ala still a slimmer Danny Shelton

b.) Garrett will get his.. If I'm to believe Clowney disliked Baker? Stunting Clowney inside to DT looks, is where the the Panthers OL is it's weakest..

I'm expecting a big game from JC ?

Flashback to Mayfield's 2019 win against the Bengals and the sideline leer he gave newly installed Hue Jackson. I think 2 things happen game 1. First, the usual Browns opening day loss and 2, Mayfield's chip in the form of presenting stefansky with the game ball.

Why would you laugh? You're either a Browns fan or looks like only a Mayfield Groupie.
