Here we are at it, gameday #1.
So How 'bout that defense? Are they going to show up,
And can they impactful enough. I guess I'm asking,
Are they Ready Today?
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

We had better be ... and we better cover Walker/Lewis
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

I expect a similar outcome to what we saw from the Bears D on opening day. The difference is that we should have competent QB play to complement it. Our front will challenge good OLs. The Titans OL without Lewan and the remaining guys seemingly held together by tape? I'm with Myles in expecting a bloodbath.

Two things: 1.just make tackles when they are in a position to do.
2. contain Walker, he's a big play TE. We've historically had trouble with good TEs.

If kick coverage is considered defense and I think it is, then two guys that made the active roster that could make a difference are newly acquired Malik Jefferson and KhaDarel Hodge. Both these guys have ability in this area.

This better be geared up today One thing is for sure:
The Defensive Line is ready
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Don't destroy him too much, If the Titans are Stupid enough, to start their worse Quarterback in Mariotta, at least make sure he stays in the game unless they go to their better Qb Tannehill and might actually have a chance.
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.
