Defense looked good, but be cautious

[Starforever]

I remember how gassed everyone was for our defense last year after shutting out the giants 40-0

I remember how most of the fanbase had them losing today. Yuck Yuck

What did you think about the defense?

Until they play a better offense, and prove me wrong. I think they're the same defense as the past couple of years that feasted on weak offenses

 

[Starforever]

Lol we heard that when Quinn took over. Again, this was expected

Why does winning hurt some of the fanbase?

 

[Aven8]

Cleveland looked like that hadn’t even practiced. Was that a replacement team?!

Lol winning doesn't hurt. Why cautious optimism hurt the homers?

This was a playoff team last yr. They ain’t the Giants and Commanders

It’s important to know though the Browns are suppose to be a quality opponent…..who knows though new year.

I don't think anyone can just blanket discount the Browns defense. They were #1 rated last year but their Offense today looked beyond putrid even given how well our D played. I doubt the Defense looks that dominant against other teams but I definitely liked some things I saw over DQ's defense.

Correct, a playoff team with a weak offense. Reason why they were one and done

But how can you say that when they couldn’t stop the run last year? All we heard was they can’t beat a playoff team especially on the road. This win means more than you let alone.

The Giants and Commanders wish they could get to 8 wins let alone a playoff game .

You gotta admit, if our Defense played like they did today it would've been a better game against the Packers. Gotta take the good with the bad. The Browns offense looks putrid but our Defense looked more disciplined and the LB'ers look much better. There were good things by Dallas today. Not all world but not dismissive either.

 

[Rockport]

The browns did not have either starting OTs and their Starting RB.

Just something to keep in mind.

First games are usually an anomaly. Cowboys starters don’t play in the preseason so they’re rusty. September football.

How can celebrating a win make one a Homer? Please explain.

Yeah I figured this would happen if we won. Now the Browns stink. They were flawed sure but that was a very tough team last year. Chubb wasn’t there but I don’t even know if it would’ve helped.

They haven't proved they can stop it this year. We just played a team missing two olineman, their starting rb, and a passing game that posed no threat

Why do you hate the Cowboys so much? You really should find another team or your hate will turn you bitter,,,,,.oh wait

Yall gonna discredit the W and that’s ok I guess we might as well go ahead an discredit next week too. I guess it’s gonna take to the 49ers game to get some credit lol.

Cowboys play the 49ers in 6 weeks. Please dont quit on us this time

You don't think Watson was bad? I think the Browns defense IS LEGIT. Their offense looked worse than I thought it would. Not saying they stink. It was a good quality win IMO. I just think you want to argue.

And rightfully so, this team hasn't earned the benefit of the doubt. If they lose to 49ers again, you really gonna believe things are different?
