STAT THAT STICKS: Eleven sacks by the Browns this season. That's the second-most in the NFL, which is a big improvement for a defense that had the eighth-fewest in the league last season.
Good thing we went out and signed all those big name FA sack artists this offseason. They're really coming in handy.

I see it nothing more that a piece of information that suggests we may not be a bottom dwelling team.
Good teams get sacks, good teams stop the run. good teams score more than the other team,
Welcome back, Joe, we missed you!

That's a nice stat, but it only tells one side of the story. Jauron should be getting big props from fans and the media for getting the most out of a defense that is still very limited in terms of skill. He's getting pressure with blitzes, but this defensive unit lives by the mantra "Live by the sword, die by the sword." We'll get some sacks, but we'll give up some huge plays.
I think Jauron was a helluva get by Heckert and Walrus.
So far your right - i just hope we stay injury free because we don't have much depth... but I've been very impressed by this defense so far... would like to see the offense step it up

With Joe Haden I doubt we give up a lot of big plays on his side of the field.
If we get another great CB our defense could be awesome.
