Titans vs Browns Preview
The transformation from zeroes to heroes has happened quickly in Cleveland and the Browns are suddenly one of the most intriguing squads in the NFL just two offseasons removed from an 0-16 campaign in 2017.
Some intriguing of roster moves are responsible for that, premier among those being the acquisition of star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., who’s excited for a fresh start in Cleveland after a tumultuous five years in New York.
However, Beckham came out this week and said his “minor” hip injury might be something more. He’s expected to play the Week 1 matchup but is not certain what percentage he will be, telling reporters he’s not “a mathematician.”
“It’s like an extremely fast car with a little alignment or something off, and it’s right in the center of what you need,’’ Beckham said Thursday. “Now the car can still go, but it’s dangerous.”
Another storyline to watch on the Browns side is the performance of Baker Mayfield, who is coming off a stellar rookie season and has even entered the MVP conversation for some.
Mayfield believes the Browns arsenal is so dangerous that if teams roll to shut down a particular guy — like Beckham — other pass-catchers will rise to the occasion.
“I have full confidence in all of our guys, all of our playmaker skill position guys. If they have one on ones, they should be licking their chops because they should all take that as disrespect. That is the type of team we have, and we need to take advantage of it. It is going to be a matchup game.”
The Titans are looking to fill a big hole at left tackle, with Pro Bowler Taylor Lewan serving a four-game suspension. He’ll be missed, as the Browns’ ferocious front — featuring Myles Garrett and Olivier Vernon — are looking to have a field day chasing down Titans QB Marcus Mariota.
“The guys that have to replace Taylor are going to have to step up and do their job,” tight end Delanie Walker told ESPN. “They get paid to play tackle, so you have to be a tackle and block their best rusher.”
The Titans missed the playoffs last year, finishing third in the AFC South. Despite having a top three scoring defense, Tennessee’s offense struggled, finishing 27th in scoring offense. First-year offensive coordinator Arthur Smith will have the duty of sparking an offense headlined by Mariota and running back Derrick Henry.
