Helluva start. Couldn't ask for much more out of McCoy. Shefter called McCoy "legitimate". And LeCharles Bentley said our Oline may be top 5 in the NFL. All things to get excited about, however as a Browns fan, still gonna be cautiously optimistic.

I agree but the Browns first team offense typically looks like a coat hanger abortion in these games.

Is that Ramzee Robinson from alabama a few years back? He was pretty solid in college, always wondered what happened to him

Preseason or not, I'm excited by what they've done so far.

Important point: Mcgee has looked pretty good as a replacement punter.

After that 1st Series on D, the Browns have constantly gotten pressure on whoever is QB back there.

The only one bringing any pressure of the 1st teamers was Jayme Mitchell.

'Meh, still...that's pressure. Haha. I like what I see, except now with GB driving before the half.

Same old, same old from the defense, IMO. If this were a real game, GB likely has 21 points on the board by now.

Probably, but our young guys are in there too. Our offense looked good with McCoy in there. If our O-Line really is as good as they say they are, you know as well as I do, that a good O-Line can make anyone look good.

No question about the offense. Compared to years gone by they looked GREAT under McCoy. Not OVERLY confident about the offense but scared as Hell about this defense.

A couple other notes, the wideouts haven't looked "awful". Not great, but Little showed nice hands and Norwood looks like a good "YAC" receiver. I absolutely love what's been shown out of Brandon Jackson so far.

And our O-Line, both 1st and 2nd string guys (aside from a few hiccups), has looked solid. Nice leg from Wolfert. Tie ballgame. 17-17

On one hand, I like the pressure we're getting even with the young guys. But our secondary (thought to not be as big of a concern for our D) has looked out of place more often than not.

There we go ! Sack and a fumble return for a TD (Titus Brown).
