Honest thoughts
-
Plan to rewatch the game to break it down and key in on a few players. Initial thoughts were pretty much inline the OP.
I’ll add a couple things. Very impressed with the open field tackling across the board with the defense.
Starting to wonder where Duke fits in with all the new and/or revitalized weapons. Didn’t see much of him last night and haven’t heard any camp stories about him getting cohesive with the new QBs and system like we’ve heard about Landry, Higgins and Calloway.
A few bubble guys who caught my eye with positive showings were Bello, Orchard and Berry.

Dang, didn't we talk about this pre-draft? One big run, then a whole lot of nothing the rest of the game. Barkley's MO.

The way plays were being called kind of reminded me of the last time we played a preseason game after not winning a game in the previous season

First preseason game. Don't care, ain't worrying about nothin. I was actually really impressed with how well the oline played, with it being their first preseason outing.
Amazed by our top two qb's. OMG - Mayfield just keeps showing he's a special talent. I think we finally have our future qb with a Bernie Kosar type qb brain.
The players were sky high, and it showed every play. They were haven't fun out there, and they meant business. A couple of taunting penalites - Ward was grinning a bit about it - when asked. They know it's preseason and they can fix that easy.
The Browns couldn't run the ball, don't care. Everybody knows it's preseason, not showing much, nothing fancy, so the Giants went after the running game, dared them to pass and win. So, the Browns passed them silly and won the game.

The upside - passing first downs - 12 - 8(giants)
4th down efficiency - 2 fer 2, 0-1(giants)
total yards 372 - 310(giants)
passing yards 322 - 176(giants)
Completions/attempts 18/29 62% 22/45 48%(giants)
yards per pass 10.7 3.7(giants)
The penalties - don't care right now. that will get fixed
The offensive line isn't quite settled yet. I will say this - I get po'd when I see the Browns called
for offensive line holding, and the other team gets away with holding. What the hell is up with that?
Just my vivid imagination? lol
Just wait til later - when defenses know the Browns will pass them silly if they just shut down the running game.

Honest thought ?...So much has been made from the media all offseason about Baker Mayfield's size. Simply got tired of reading it..So instead of welcoming Baker to Munchkinland. As most scouts and Media did. I'd like to welcome them to Bakers Land!
Is that Baker on the left or right
.. Browns do have a history and we did glorify some names..So will Baker be a Bust,be a Bust,be a Bust..in the Hall of Fame?.Stay tuned, it's only his first preseason game ...but for the love of all midgets, he's not a Munchkin in your Media Land..Go Browns!! hee-hee

Baker is only like 6’ and I saw no tipped passes.
The Giants backup QB Davis Webb is 6’5” and how many tipped passes did he have? 4? 5?

I like what I saw from Baker.. I wont call it perfect.. But mighty damn impressive... I'm anxious to see how the dynamics unfolds... I'm not ready to put him in Canton... But, I'm encouraged.. One day at a time as they say....

Brian Baldinger (NFL Channel) just RAVED about Baker which pleased me as I am (& always have been) a HUGE Baker Fan.
In addition to his obvious talent, his passion for the game & his competitive level are off the charts. Indeed, Baker Mayfield is a special player.
That being said, Tyrod may well start the regular season & I will support him fully, but I feel that, in Baker, our future QB has been secured.

I agree, he looked motivated or inspired or something, good combination of Taylor / Mayfield for now.

Baker's current towel bitch, an improvement.
