I think the Browns are gonna end up very strong against the pass this year based on a young defensive backfield that's growing up nicely... and a newfound pass rush thanks to Rob Ryan and Kam Wimbley. Plus, Kyle Orton blows ass.I believe the Browns defense is better than the Bengals, and with the exception of an answered prayer that probably should have been a game ending interception, the Broncos did virtually nothing against the Bengals. I don't see many points on that side. They ran 20 times for 75 yards... against Cincinnati.
The bigger mystery for me is how the Browns offense will fare. I just don't know. But my biggest note is the call for more Furrey (one of the mysteries of the first half last week)... and some screens (another mystery).
Exactly shep.
I hope we start rolling on Offense. We need run the ball and control the clock. If we do that I think we win. But if we are in panic mode and have quinn trying to win us a game..... We are in trouble. And Denvers D looked pretty damn good against the Bengals.
My prediction is
Browns 16 (3 field goals and a td sounds about right)
Denver 13
-
I think there will be more points scored than you think. I think that Quinn throws 2 TDs, Cribbs returns one again (punt or kick...doesn't matter), and Dawson hits 2 FG's. I think Denver comes out fighting hard at home and scores 2 TD's and 3 FG's. Final Score...Browns win 27-23. Remember...this Broncos team is not much different than they were in Brady's first start last season. He put up 30 there. And our offense is going to depend heavily on the pass on Sunday. Brady will have confidence because of his start last season and it will spill out to other guys on the field. Harrison could play a major role also.

They give Edwards too much credit, the guy is very talented for sure, but we have other players that have just as much talent, I dont know why the Media sees that Jerome Harrison has fallen off the map, he had a great year with limited touches and he will play sunday.
This Sunday is the day we see if our new OC is worth a dime (pun intended) Because with injuries strewn about our backfield, we need to play a good passing game, put furrey and Robiskie in the game for christ sakes, as im sure they can catch the ball better than royal.
That mightve been our biggest sin this past game, Furrey diddnt see the field until the second half, and he has the best hands on the team, as well as the best chemistry with Quinn as we saw this preseason we needs to consistently come out with Edwards Cribbs and Furrey on 2nd and 3rd down

If they want to think BE is a threat by all means lets let them think that but i dont think an average defense needs to keep more than 1 guy on BE most of the time and have a roaming safety keep within leaping range when its obvious BE is the target...he isnt that good really he is overrated imho but he is welcome to prove me wrong...
I have to assume MoMass will be slowly replacing BE if he dont get on the ball soon...
-
I think BE is a threat when he is double covered and tip toeing the line with one hand behind his back. He makes that catch. when he gets wide open between the hash marks and the ball hits his chest, absolutly not a threat. The guy has shown hes a playmaker in the past. He needs to show it again soon or your right MoMass will be working his way in.
-
Last week the offense was geared to max protection. On many occasions they only had two receivers out on routes. I would expect to see more 3 receiver sets this week and less two TE sets.
One of the keys this week will be St Clair stepping up. He needs to show that he doesn't need a guy kept in to help him on every play. I'd like to know the number of snaps that Furrey was actually in the game last week.
I also expect to see more WildDawg with Cribbs. Especially if the RBs are banged up. Sooner or later he is going to throw the ball and I think teams realize that.

I don't really agree with that. The Bengals had a good defense last year and it has only gotten better. I think they were twelfth in the league last year and I won't be surprised to see them improve.

Champ Bailey and Brian Dawkins are listed as doubtful as of yesterday. The Browns are assuming they'll play.The Browns will wear the brown pants for all road games.
Jerome Harrison is playing for the first time. Furrey says the offense is meshing now that all the starters are set. Mangini says both rookies are making major strides and will be major contributors sooner than later.
So, white jerseys and ugly brown pants!!! GREAT
