That ain't dark at all. It's the 1st light at the end of the tunnel that isn't the head lamp of an oncoming train.

Pluto remains a lucid light of reason... even on the dark side.
Only issue I have with the column is Terry's hint of optimism about the Brockweiler.

How would Texas A&M defensive end @MylesLGarrett stack up against the AFC North?
Video embedded in tweet of Jerimiah and Brooks discussing... some silly stuff to start then some analysis ending with:
"Myles Garrett makes CLE the #1 defensive front in the AFCN." - DJ (close to a quote if not exact)

Bucky article on MG ending in a comparison to Julius Peppers who ignited the rise of the Panthers' franchise.
I forget sometimes how impactful Julius was in his youth.Book on Myles Garrett: Like Julius Peppers, a generational talent
"He's a face-of-the-franchise, cornerstone guy. He's a can't-miss prospect. There simply aren't many guys like this walking the planet." -- NFC personnel executive
When I look at his natural pass-rush ability and his movement skills, he reminds me of Julius Peppers during his prime. As a member of the Carolina Panthers' front office during the early years of Peppers' career, I saw him single-handedly reverse the fortunes of a franchise with his mere presence on the edge.

Luck has definitely regressed under the weight of the David Carr Syndrome... or Tim Couch Syndrome, if you prefer.
Weak D, with weak OL and little run game will take its toll.
Yep. Our OL will make some difference....assuming it plays up to expectations. But we also need that QB that can make quick decisions and that has a quick release.
BO did not seem to be that guy in his stint in Houston...did he? And Kessler does not seem to really be that guy either....unless he improves greatly after his rookie season.
Both Kessler and Osweiler have some growing to do. Mitch just has more.Yep. Our OL will make some difference....assuming it plays up to expectations. But we also need that QB that can make quick decisions and that has a quick release.

But if it's up to me that's the three quarterbacks on the roster. Even though Id carry four and have McCown as a coach player.
But that ain't going to happen.

And does what our team desperately need on defense? ALL OF THIS. God, can you imagine having an impact defender that actually SCARES people?

it remains to be seen if Garrett is that generational talent. If i recall Peppers correctly, he was further along at this point than Garrett is. Garrett still needs alot of work against the run. Calling him the next anybody is premature. And frankly i don't want to put those expectations on him. LIke in two years if we're not in the superbowl everybody's gonna be like fuck you Myles? Im willing to let the kid learn and grow here in Cleveland without heaping unobtainable expectations on him.

Can't speak for "everybody", but I won't be...
We've our share of unrealistic fans, but 1-15 to SB in two years? That should trim the herd considerably...

And as I have stated elsewhere (or should have if I didn't), how he does his year is entirely dependent in how well this braintrust builds the rest of the defense around him. One man does not a defense make as was proven by A&M's lack of a quality/depth in the rest of the players they had trying to assist him. SEC OCs recognized that and designed gameplans to maximize keeping him at bay with plays away and double/triple teams, even when he was hurt. NFL team will find the weak links in the Browns D unless this draft concentrates on more than just Garrett. At least 4 of the top 5 picks need to be defenders in such a deep defensive draft.

In the words of Wayne Campbell... "Shah!"
Of course teams will try to exploit our defensive weakness same as every offense does every defense every Sunday. Garrett's going to see plays away, get "chipped" regularly as does every other Edge stud in the league. But as the other great ones do, when he gets his shots, he's going to have to cash them.
He's going to have to recognize and run down plays away. And when he's not facing read-option, dual-threat QBs week in and week out, he should be free to do so. Dalton may burn him once or twice, but Ben won't. Reverses??? PTG will throw those at him, but he has to "recognize".
He's going to have to "win" his share of one-on-one, PassPro battles, when presented with them. Doesn't mean a sack every time... just a pressure... a flush... even a stunt that draws OL attention needed elsewhere... any effort that contributes to any "get-the-QB-off-his-spot" result.
