Browns offense is loaded

CHA_CHING · 04-03-2019, 10:02 PM

RB are inter-changeable. You could have Barry Sanders as your RB and still not win many games as long as your quarterback is below average and your passing offense is subpar (Sanders had 2 years of his whole career where the Lions offense was decent and had good QB play - 1994 and 1995. Still didn't win a playoff game). Just look at how Barkley's big rushing numbers with the Giants didn't translate to an improved passing offense because Eli Manning is still a washed up mediocre quarterback. Too much emphasis is put on RBs.

Mayfield's Y/A was 7.7 last year as a rookie. The QB in Green Bay who set a record for number of times throwing the ball out of bounds to protect his precious, holy TD/INT ratio last year had a 7.4 Y/A. Mayfield also had a significantly lower sack percentage than Rodgers.

If Mayfield can improve as a passer in his sophomore year, it won't matter who he's handing the ball off to. They'll survive during Hunt's suspension if their passing offense is clicking.

I agree that their biggest problem is going to see how they handle pressure moving forward and with higher expectations.

Morgan Burnett jumps from the Steelers to the Browns.

When your OLine is considered a possible weak spot any offense will look average...or worse.

Build from the inside out.

Forget the Browns for a split second ...

Titans have a nice defense. Even Kenny Vacarro baited a starting tackle into kicking him in the head and getting ejected.

They looked great on defense. They should be able to take the division with the Colts being in disarray.

As for the Browns, I guess this is what happens when you take top talent and give the keys to a coach who was not even a coordinator with zero experience. All because Baker Mayfield liked him.

Mayfield also spent the entire off season running his mouth. Every team probably has the Browns circled and are extra motivated to beat the snot out of them thanks to their extremely arrogant, cocky QB.

Still need to play on game at a time. They haven't done anything yet.

Bump ...

The season is still young however the Browns are looking like paper champions.

Footnote - Baker leads the league in INTs (19) over a 2 year span.

Kitchens has work to do.
