    I'm still worried about the OL. Rarely was MM able to drop back and not have immediate pressure.

    And you could tell MM was a little rattled by it. He missed a wide open Sharpe on an out route on one of the few plays he had good protection. But you could tell he was rushing the pass because he was under duress all day.

    The good news is, is should get quite a bit better in a about 3 weeks. Browns also have some legit pass rushers, so it's not like they were looking bad against scrubs.

    Here comes all the Media attention, but not towards us.... They will barrage that the Browns lost this game (outside of penalties) and we didn't win it.... just like when we embarrassed the Cowboys on MNF.

    Yeah, it is concerning. At least Smith actually did something to try to help. Lots of bootlegs and play action and screens. Much better than the flower who just let Marcus be killed.

    Things I liked about the game.

    1) AJ Brown ... wow. I knew he would be good, but wasnt expecting much early, especially after missing most of camp. Hopefully MM develops some nice chemistry with him this year. Teams wont be able to just double CD all the time anymore.

    2) welcome back Walker. How we missed thee

    3) DEFENSE ... we pressured the QB, got turnovers and smothered them most of the game. I wasnt expecting much from Wake, but DAMN. He was a beast.

    4) King Henry ... looks like he is picking up where he left off. Over 150 total yards and 2 TDs.

    5) King Arthur ... called a good game. No easy task going into your first game down a starter at LT and RG.

    6) KERN ... dude truly is a weapon. We flipped the fields a few times cause of his massive punts (dude had a 70 yarder). And continued to pin them deep. I think part of that safety should be credited to him.

    7) MM ... we scores TDs in the red zone which was nice to see. He was under pressure most of the day, but still managed to put together a solid game with no real mistakes.

    Our especial teams were clearly better and pretty much kept us in the game when things were tigh.

    This sounds pretty lame but it was awesome to see MM8 just slide for the sack when he was one on one with Garrett, instead of taking that hit.

    ever since the injury, both him and derek carr have been extremely anxious in the pocket. i think today was a big step in getting his confidence back. yeah he took some hits, but Art proved he could adjust and get MM away from pressure. Once they watch film maybe Marcus will still be alert, but relax and think less so he can really let it rip.

    I'm not really concerned about the OL. Two backups in there going against THREE pro bowlers on the Browns DL. Hopefully we see less pressure in future games, and Lewan will be back in 3 weeks.

    It was at a point in the game where we already had it won ... I doubt he does that if it's still competitive.
    Yeah. It was a big test. OL looked shaky but held up OK considering the circumstances.

    Getting lewan back will he huge. I'd move Kelly over to RG as well when lewan is back. OL fixed
