It's one game, so I am not going to draw many conclusions and certainly not many beyond decisions and performances in one game. 

It's just one game, but it's kinda not.

We saw the run defense be garbage through most of last year. That it starts off looking the same is...discouraging.

They had 8 sacks and we had 0. Ugh, Riddick may just indeed be missed.

Looking for droped passes. I remember 2 for the Browns but wanted to see how that played into the passing game and pass D. Couldn't find it tho.

 

Honestly, I started feeling thus way last year, but I feel like Week 1 of this season confirmed it...  YGM seems like a bust.

the whole D line besides Burns seems like a bust. And Burns isn't as good as people say he is. Its been years and hes the king of "Almost got it." Ive seen him whiff on so many sacks and that stupid play of him hugging Brisetts leg while Brisset just throws the ball away got me fuming. Burns is a decent DE but he's no super star. And everyone else on the dline is a god damn bum. 

Burns would be a perfect #2 DE if we had a bonifide #1 Peppers type on the other side.

Yep, like I said, I am not looking for a huge move toward the middle in that rating, unfortunately.  We entered this game with it as a concern, the results confirmed that concern (or made it a fear), and the results Sunday would have been worse had the Browns committed to the run for the stretch where they seemed to confuse Brissett with Rodgers.  Our opponent Sunday could abuse us again in that area.

If we are walking away with any conclusions from week 1, it is that this specific area of concern in genuine.  Nor do I think Snow has any answers, and there may not be any good ones on the roster.

They were officially credited with 4 sacks. Myles Garret lead the team with 2 sacks with 4 other Cleveland defenders recording a 0.5 sack

Lol my bad. It was their preseason stats. Tuesday and lots of stuff still not updated. Good catch, I was like where the hell did some of those come from.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
