3 things we learned from the Browns-Bills preseason game
Few starters played, and thank goodness for that, but we learned some things about the Cleveland Browns versus the Bills
Three key insights emerged from the Cleveland Browns' preseason matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Firstly, the second-team offense proved effective, with QB Shedeur Sanders taking the starting role following Deshaun Watson's performance in the first game. This showcased the depth and readiness of Cleveland's backup quarterbacks.
Secondly, the offensive line demonstrated remarkable cohesion, particularly on the second-team, with standout performances from RT Dawand Jones, RG Austin Barber, and C Luke Wypler. Their seamless protection allowed Sanders ample time to make accurate throws, as evidenced by the TD pass to Floriea in the first quarter. Lastly, the defensive unit highlighted the importance of reliable tacklers, with cornerback Tre Avery experiencing tackling challenges and CB Michael Coats Jr. displaying inconsistency in open-field tackles.
Overall, the game served as a crucial assessment of the Browns' backup players and a preview of potential roster adjustments for the upcoming season.
