A Ronnie Harrison interception that shows why the Browns should draft Zaven Collins: Gotta Watch The Tape Feb 25, 2021

Show notes

On this Gotta Watch The Tape in the Orange and Brown Talk feed, it's time to break down another 2020 play to talk about the 2021 Cleveland Browns. In this episode, Ellis Williams leads the way and Scott Patsko and Doug Lesmerises join in to talk about a Ronnie Harrison pick-six against Philip Rivers and the Indianapolis Colts from last season. The play came from an effective personnel package on third-and-four, as the Browns had five defensive backs and three defensive ends in the game. What did it tell us about what defensive coordinator Joe Woods wants to do and what kind of players he needs to do it? How often should the Browns play three ends at once? Do the Browns have the safety options they need? And is there an ideal option in the 2021 draft to give them a needed three-down linebacker?

Thanks for diving in with Ellis, Scott and Doug on Gotta Watch The Tape from cleveland.com.

What a Donovan Peoples-Jones TD shows about a formation the Browns use more than any NFL team: Gotta Watch The Tape Feb 18, 2021

Show notes

On this Gotta Watch The Tape episode in the Orange and Brown Talk feed, it's time to break down another play from the 2020 season to tell us about the 2021 season.

This week, it's a Donovan Peoples-Jones 75-yard touchdown against Tennessee that came from 13 personnel, which means the Browns had three tight ends on the field, and which featured four different versions of pre-snap motion.

Scott Patsko breaks all that down, joined by Ellis Williams and Doug Lesmerises, to show what it proves about the worth of Austin Hooper, David Njoku Harrison Bryant; to ask whether the Browns should use 13 personnel more or less in 2021; and to examine whether the Browns are NFL outliers with their offense, or whether they are setting trends for the league to follow.

Thanks for listening to Gotta Watch The Tape from cleveland.com.
