Expect A Huge Day From T.O.

Terrell Owens is expected to draw Browns RCB Brandon McDonald in coverage on Sunday.

The Browns could roll a safety over to Owens often, but also must account for Jason Witten in the slot and will have LCB Eric Wright against Patrick Crayton, so T.O. could see a lot of single coverage. McDonald flashed shutdown ability in spot duty last season, but this is his first year as a starter.

I had a post before saying that Cleveland's CB's are listed at 5'10 and Owens at 6'3, Witten at 6'5, Benett @ 6'6 will tough to cover. Expect Romo to Owens early and often. Huge day!

I've never heard of either of those corners so hopefully you're right.

Eric Wright is their best guy. Not to be rude to MR. Wright but he isn't that good. Could be a long long day for their CB's.

Don't be surprised that we put up 35 points.

They still have to account for Stanback. Can't have him running free in their secondary either.... and I have a good reason to believe we will see The Cat in a lot of passing plays on Sunday too. Should be a fun watch.

The Browns CB's are dreadful and they were dreadful last year. It's a serious weakness and one that we are going to take advantage of.

I hope you're right, Sarge. In the past, we have mysteriously not taken advantage of such situations.

The size mismatch between TO and Brandon McDonald tells me all I need to know.

TO- 6'3" 226 lbs.
B. McDonald- 5'10" 185 lbs.

I want to see a little action from Bennett. His attitude has drastically improved, and I thank Hard Knocks for that.

I think he can have 5 catches pretty easily. His blocking can be a huge benefit opening holes for Barber and helping on pass blocking.

These things may not show up on stats but this isn't fantasy football.

Your right. I was very impressed with his blocking ability near the end of the preseason.

I agree that TO will have a huge day, but I think they'll double up on him and make other weapons beat us. I would love to see Romo spread the TDs around. I predict at least 4: TO, Witten, Crayton, and Felix. The other 4 will be MBIII on the ground. :D

I think Owens, Crayton, and Witten are all in for HUGE opening days. Cleveland simply doesn't have anyone who can cover them and they don't have a pass rush ability that scares you.

I think it's a monster day through the air for these guys this weekend.

I've been thinking the same thing about Felix being in the slot on passing plays. There is a reason we only have 3 WR's active for the game and I think other then Witten we will see a lot of Felix the Cat in the slot.
