well we all saw on sunday what happens when u have a DL that doesnt do fundamentals like keep OL off the LB'ers. U can play that 2004 colts style defense of stopping the run on the way to the qb, when u have peyton manning dropping 2-3 TD's on a team before everyone has made it to their seats. Are we that offense and i just didnt know?

I literally was going to write the same exact thing Clevfan…
If you are going to sacrifice run defense, you better have an offense that makes the opposing team's run game null and void on a consistent basis.

Ya, we already did a thread on this, if you are not plowing the bottom of the roster, you're not doing your job. Orchard and Nassib underachieved... if you are clinging to the bottom of the roster after year three or year four, the team will probably take a look at somebody else with some upside they like.
Only thing I blame new front office for so far, is not going out and signing a veteran left tackle back in the spring so a promising guy like Harrison isnt starting Day 1 and holding back the team while we install a new offense.

They did to that in their heads, they instead drafted a guard in the 2nd round and moved Bitonio to LT.
And Corbett wasn't even dressed on Sunday. They're getting a pass on this and I don't know why. It's a huge Shmuck up

i know nothing about the saints except drew brees can still sling it. Are we in fir another 100 plus yd rusher with them?

We're in for a healthy dose of Kamara, and it won't be pretty. He'll likely be over 100 yards rushing AND 100 yards receiving. He's that good.

We got burned by Collins last week. Seemed like he was open for the pass alot. Needed like a spy on him.
Kamara will be the same.

I had it in mind to write this as well...
It's a real possibility.

Well, I think that "Collins", our Collins, is the guy that may have the main duty of covering the opposing RB, no? Or is it somebody else?

Our linebackers took a bit of heat last week compared to other parts of the defense, but Collins is the guy who didn't do much in my opinion. If we're going to have ANY chance to keep this game CLOSE, Jamie Collins is going to need to show up, and show up LARGE. It's not a stretch to say Collins, and the other backers, will determine whether we win or lose. Yes, our secondary has to be amazing, yes we obviously need another monster game out of Myles Garrett, but our linebackers ability to cover AND tackle effectively will be everything. Limiting YAC, disrupting passing lanes, and stopping (or slowing down) Kamara.

well, in rushing -
Rushing 159 177 Rushing Attempts 35 38 Yards per rush 4.5 4.7 the first set of numbers is the rushing totals for pukesburg....they have a set offense for years, pretty much a set group of players.
The Browns had a new qb, two new rbs, brand new LT, Bitonio back at LOG,One new TE, new RT....etc etc. New OC.
Pukes had a new rb. and the Browns still outrushed them.
I'm happy that the Browns played so tough the first game in the rain, vs the pukes, and tied. A few miscues/miscommunications on defense - sure - it's to be expected. First regular season game, no loss - that's ok !
Having said that, there needs to be improvement this next game. Tyrod wasn't getting the ball downfield, the offensive line washaving some communication/coordination problems here and there, sure.
Without a lot of improvement, well, the Browns offense could get owned by the Saints. The Browns defense adjusted for the second half, and the secondary is going to rock all season - and pressure/interceptions/shutdowns by the defense will continue.
Tomorrow, vs the Saints? Tyrod has to show he isn't afraid to get the ball downfield at any time. Dink and dunk is playing it safe. Advantage - opposing defenses. And, as soon as I saw him throw to Gordon for that second time, down the right sideline?
The db already got burned once on the same play, Tyrod threw it, I cringed, and it was under-thrown, just bad.
Tomorrow, I expect the Browns' defense will make a name for themselves - and give the Saints fits. And the Browns offense will get their timing down, and play better.
Concern? that Tyrod keeps struggling - he can make plays, etc - but he doesn't seem to have the same accuracy that Baker does, doesn't seem to have the elusive instincts in the pocket/backfield that Baker does, doesn't have Baker's arm strength, and doesn't see the field "instantly" like Baker does.
It could be, Tyrod rocks it in a few games, or Baker plays sooner that we think. But I believe Tyrod will bounce back.
What was the score last week? TB 48 Saints 40 ? The Browns have a defense that will be even better tomorrow, and the Saints offense could be toast. And the Saint's pass defense ... not good.
Rock it, Tyrod.

"The :Pukes" I like it.

I wonder if we'll see more 4-2-5 alignment on early downs...
We don't have an LB that can track Kamara.
