I've got the Denver defense and McManus this week in as many places as I can get them.  I think McManus kicks 5 field goals in the zillion possessions Denver will have.

ummmm

thanks for pointing that out.  I hadn't noticed. I have some uphill battles to win.  Forgive me...  I thought the Denver defense was supposed to be good.  They couldn't stop my grandmother. 

 

They mentioned in the pre-game that Denver built up some of their stats on both sides of the ball against 3 very bad teams to start the season. So them being regarded as some great defense coming into the game was definitely impacted by that 

 

Regarding Baker, I was reading this article earlier, very in depth discussion of the shoulder injury, with input from a doctor in that field who doesn't treat Baker but does work with top athletes and knows his shoulder specialist. Sounds like the best option is to sit for a few weeks, see if he can heal some and play better down 2nd half of season. I fear if he keeps playing he gets hurt worse, causes the Browns to lose more games and ultimately derails his own career and potential for a big contract.

On paper in the off season, they were supposed to be top five

 

Not just in the offseason, but looking at yards allowed (a bad single criteria as I covered in another post) they were near the top, appears to be they were in 7-8 place with around 1900 yards allowed. They've given up almost 400/game in their last 4, after a lower 220/game. Their points allowed were also skewed in those first 3, with and an average points per game of 9  compared to 25 in the last 4. 

 

They looked good early, playing bad teams (NYG, JAX, NYJ), that is what I was talking about regarding the pre-game discussion.

Hmmmm, kinda like you disputed when I told you how Washington was overrated last season? 

 

Geez deflect much?  How about answering the question, which defense is better, Broncos or Ravens. Why do you use yardage alone as a barometer for ranking a defense?

You misunderstand... Denver wss supposed to be that good against good teams. 

 

Nope didn't really misunderstand, I was talking about how people still perceived them to be a top defense going into the Browns game, or at least after the first 3 games. It wasn't just a pre-season based on how they looked on paper thing. 

 

Many teams were "supposed to be ...." something different based on off season talk, I expected a much better Browns defense based on the talent added thru free agency and the draft. But that has yet to materialize for a variety of reasons.
