Tennessee shook lol

The defense is next level, although I wouldn't want to face Miami, lol. Titans didn't even have 100 yards net offense, after factoring in sacks. Garrett was a beast and made a few "game wrecker" plays today. Should be a top candidate for DPOW.

Baby steps but hopefully today kickstarts Watson. He even said in an interview this week he has historically started slow then has taken off.

Boringly dominant.

I’ve not watched a good football game in live time yet

Browns looked like 85 Bears on defense and Titans offense looked like, well the Bears

A lot of vets don't play much, if at all, in preseason now and need 2-3 weeks to shake the rust off.

Kind of why I've been concerned but not in full on panic mode. Other than Brock Purdy & Tua, which big name QB (Purdy's not big name) has looked "elite?" Not Burrow, Allen or Hurts. Herbert has been good but can't overcome their defense. Hoping it's just the case with Watson.

Defense has given up 3, 12, 3 to opposing offenses. Granted, they haven't been tested by an elite offense but it's pretty damn good.

It's early, but this should be the Browns best defense since at least the Eric Turner led defense in 1994 that took them to the playoffs with Nick Saban as the DC. Maybe it could be the best since the original Dawgs with Dixon/Minnifield.

Herbert was decent today

He's been putting up pretty gaudy numbers, so I was wrong on him. It's been his defense, until today, that's screwed him.

Shocker, the refs apologized after...

#Browns WR Amari Cooper said he was confused when he was called out of bounds. Said the refs apologized after.

Heard on replays last night (I think it was halftime of the SNF game, could have been ESPN) the best line of yesterday's game.

"The Browns Defense looks like the '85 Bears, and the Titans Offense looks like the 2023 Bears"

I spit out my pop on that one.

That was during FNIA on NBC. I think it was Chris Simms.

Whatever it was on, I died laughing.

Whoever wrote that joke for him is a genius  

Still think former Browns RB, Leroy Hoard had one of the best lines when he said "if you need 2 yards, I'll get you 3...if you need 5 yards, I'll get you 3."

Shoulder. He’s barely thrown all week. Not great.

Now Njoku questionable dues to burns to his arm & face after trying to light a fire pit at his house.

Lol it never ends. I also saw they added the 3rd qb to the active roster… but this year I thought you didn’t need to and they could still be emergency qb?

The 3rd QB is something to watch. I doubt they add him to the active roster if Watson is ready to go.

This, for me, went from an expected win to a probable loss tomorrow.

Yep, DTR starting. Hopefully the defense plays like the 85 Bears and the 2000 Ravens combined. With Chubb healthy, I'd give them a solid chance to win but this should be rough.
