The plan to help the Browns' receivers get open vs. Baltimore: Gotta Watch The Tape Dec 09, 2021

Show notes

On this Gotta Watch The Tape breakdown of the Browns with numbers and film, Doug Lesmerises and Scott Patsko are joined by a new contributor to GWTT: Lance Reisland, the former head football coach at Garfield Heights High School.

On this episode, Scott opens by looking at how the Browns' run game fared the last time out against the Ravens and what might change. Then it's on to personnel groupings, and whether the Browns might use fewer sets with three tight ends. Finally, Scott goes over how the Browns should defend Lamar Jackson this time compared to their success last time.

Then it's on to Lance, who breaks down how the Cleveland receivers weren't very open last time out, and how Kevin Stefanski could help their cause.

How would not having David Njoku impact the Browns on Sunday? Dec 08, 2021

Show notes

The Browns got startling news on their day off on Tuesday when they had to place tight end David Njoku on the reserve/COVID-19 list. The Browns are already going to be short tight end Harrison Bryant, who has a high ankle sprain, and now the team that loves playing three tight ends more than anyone is down to just one of their regular starters at the position.

Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe discussed what potentially missing Njoku could mean for the Browns in their rematch with Baltimore on Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium. Then they try to decide who is the best team in the AFC North?
