Well, the Browns didn’t exactly get off to a great start last night. When you don’t score a point and give up two first-quarter touchdowns to the other team’s first-stringers, you’ve got some work to do.
Although I don’t think the Browns will be very good this year, I think it is a bit early to panic. The worst statistic from last night’s game, in my view, is that the Browns defense was unable to get any pressure on the opposing quarterback. When you give a pro all day to throw, you’re going to get ripped to shreds. If the Browns can’t figure out how to deal with that problem, it is going to be a long season indeed.
