The Browns got caught in the wave of emotion last week in New York as the Giants made their first appearance in the Meadowlands since winning last year's Super Bowl. We expected New York to take it easy but they came out of the gate extremely strong. Cleveland was down 30-3 before they knew what hit them. But, they showed the moxie to keep clawing back and finished just 3 points short. Offense has not been the issue thus far in the preseason as the Browns have scored 54 points in their first two games. This is a week for the defense to bear down. Rod Marinelli has yet to win in his three years in Detroit after week two of the preseason. The Browns like to put the ball in the air, and the Lions have allowed 64% completions thus far, showing no ability to stop the air game. This Cleveland offense can take advantage of Detroit's weakness. Romeo Crennel has gone 2-1 in Cleveland in week three, and sitting at 0-2, we expect a good effort by the Browns who steal one in Detroit.
