Cleveland is a very winnable game to me

[Dallas5xchamps]

This game is a very winnable game to me. Deshaun Watson, has regressed and is in a prove it year and coming off an injury. I know the Browns have a solid defense, but usually the first game is harder of the defense from a fatigue aspect. So if we can somehow rush for 125 yards as a team, and have a positive 3rd down conversion, along with no turnovers, I feel we win 23-20.

..yep, long as we dont shoot ourselves first, I feel good about it.

 

[Mikexike]

As long as the D doesn't commit stupid drive extending penalties we should be good.

 

[Asklesko]

I expect a very competitive game.

You talking about the browns qb against Dallas?

 

[Tabascocat]

I think Dallas would handle them easily……..at home. But, this real grass field is a legit problem, especially against a really good defense.

I live in Cleveland, and I hope we win. Sadly, I can't make it to the game. It's complicated between a convention in December that I'm saving for and the result of a roommate with whom things ended up not working out with.

Last season the Cowboys won three of their first four games by an average margin of over 30 points. The Cowboys defense created 10 takeaways in those games, four of them returned for TD's.

These three victories all followed the same script. The Cowboys defense destroyed their offense early and the offense took advantage of the favorable opportunities.

If the defense can begin the season with the same type of energy then they should win at least 3 of their first 4 games.

It may be just our first game, and there will be rust with Dak, etc, but this is a very winnable game. If we crap the bed it will be very telling in terms of coaching/player personnel

Amen

Same for the offense get to the red zone and not score

 

[Havic]

50/50 on who wins, it will be a close mistake riddled game.

 

[Flamma]

Does anyone know the last time we won an opening game against a team that wasn't called the Giants? 2009. I'm not expecting much. Take the under.

 

[big dog cowboy]

The Cowboys offense should outscore the Browns offense. So they should win.

Our defense isn't that good....although, you may be right about Watson.

 

[GoCowboysGo]

It’s on grass.

Many starters have yet to play, including QB1 and WR1, expecting slow start again.

No running game.

No running D.

Road game.

Rookie LT vs Defensive MVP.

Rookie C adjusting to his position, plus loud environment making calls difficult.

Old LB, two completely new LB-ers.


As for CLE…..

Chubb is out.


I see a bad loss, but as always I’m hoping for a W.

Good luck with the saving and the lame roommate.

 

[KingCorcoran]

I’d fell a whole lot better if Lance was starting at quarterback. He’s a phenom. He’s fire.

 

[cald0d30s0]

It will depend on 2 things:

1. #4
2. Our running D. I’m 85% sure that Watson can’t win the game.
