1. LT - I hope Bitonio can look solid (for the series he's in the game) ... maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to play him a little bit more
2. Chubb - give him a handful of carries to get accustomed to the speed
3. Peppers - IMO he's got to improve, and I'd give him quite a few reps this preseason
4. No injuries
5. Baker not hold onto the ball, regardless of the outcome
"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 want to see Browns' drives end in TD's, or Field Goals, and overall quick decisive looking football that to the eyeball test would look like they have it all figured out and their act together.
That would be great.

Joel at LT.
Ward.
Garrett with a few reps.
Taylor execute in a vannila offense against a vanilla defense. Baker to show some good things against the twos.
Nick Chubb.
Zero injuries.

Last year we saw what a waste of time pre-season games are.
No injuries, and JP with the 2nd team.

I want to see Baker, flat out. I need to see on time throws and accuracy. There is just about nothing else you can decipher from preseason.....are his throws on time and are they accurate.
Anything else is almost irrelevant until the real games in the grand scheme.

NO INJURIES !!!
I know the talent has been upgraded, you can see that before they take one snap, so I am really anxious to see them all ...

I'm pretty excited to see his accuracy on display.
It's tough with the 2nd string in preseason, but I hope he shows something

I want to see both offense and defense make it look easy. By that I mean success, and even though it will be vanilla, I want it to look second nature to the players.
Also I'm interested to see Mayfield with a rush coming after him. I want to see his accuracy, and demeanor in the pocket.
RIP, Jim

A win.
Mayfield.
No major injuries.
Some defense to make me cheer. Remember picks?
A win.

Competence
Aggressiveness
Intelligent play
High effort throughout
I am looking forward to seeing the 1st and 2nd team offenses, and the 1st team defense. I am really starting to think that our defense could be special.

Sorry. What I DON'T want to see is flukes and crazy number of stupid penalties. Not the thread proper, but a part of last season's win killer pattern.

Of course no injuries.
But you want to see how some of the young guys play.
Real interest in Callaway, Chubb and Ward. These guys are going to get playing time in the season so yes I want to see them.
Corbett and Bitonio playing key roles on the OL.
Sure everybody wants to see Baker. However, he is not going to play much so I fully get he is in learning mode. I don't expect much and will not judge him either way.
First exhibition game you just want to see how organized they are. How well do they get the plays off. How crisp to they look.
Mostly just curious to get an overall impression.

I want to see our DL get good pass pressure without a lot of fancy blitzing..
I want to see the left side of our OL, which I think is going to be a question mark all year..
I want to see how we mix up the RBs in different situations..
I want to see our 1s and 2s sustain drives and move the ball..
And, as always, I want to see nobody hurt from either team.

I used to count down the seconds. (remember my "Seconds to Kick-Off threads in 2015 & 2016)(starting in April) Just for ha has... only 2,879,612 seconds as of the period at the end of this sentence. (to opening day kick-off)

I want to see the game... on my tv at home... without the use of a shady website (I moved back to Ohio... sorry to spam the boards, but being closer to the Browns is getting me caught up in the excitement).
I'm looking at a couple individuals during preseason.
I'm looking at Myles Garrett to be a terror while he's out there. I think he owns my highest expectations, and the highest possible for preseason. I want him to be the 1-man offense destroyer he was meant to be; and (imo) there's no reason why we shouldn't see this in preseason.
Ward - I just want to see him. No expectations, just want to see where he's at... set expectations for the regular season.
Bitonio - Early reviews of him going against Garrett are good, I want to see if that's a fluke or not.
FS - I want to see if the backend of our secondary is still a dumpster fire.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

I want to see all most others have mentioned.
One extra thing I want to see is a bit of "nasty" in our players. I want to see them playing a fraction through the whistle.
