'Bottom line: (Jimmy) Garoppolo is an upgrade who fits hand in glove,' writes ByNateDavis for usatodaysports. 'And despite the sentiments expressed by (Browns general manager Andrew Berry) and coach Kevin Stefanski ... there's no time to waste.'
Make no mistake, Cleveland has a talented roster – a good chunk of it nearly thrusting the team into the AFC championship game following the 2020 season. The Browns might even have been good enough to survive Watson's initial six-game penalty and snatch a wild card this year.The extra five games tacked onto Watson's ban are against the Ravens, Bengals, Dolphins, Bills and Buccaneers – a quintet that could realistically wind up in the 2022 postseason.
Why expect a different result now, especially given the Browns don't have any established receivers aside from Amari Cooper, who's also new to the organization?, who was at the controls for that long-awaited postseason run in 2020. But that bridge was irrevocably incinerated upon Watson's acquisition in March.
Those 2016 Patriots ultimately won Super Bowl 51, but Garoppolo and Brissett each started twice that season while Tom Brady served his Deflategate suspension. Jimmy G. shined in two victorious starts but didn't finish the second game due to a shoulder injury. Brissett was a rookie that year and, unsurprisingly, less effective while going 1-1.
Garoppolo also excels at play action, and – like the 49ers' attack – the Browns' offense is predicated on establishing a ground game propelled by Pro Bowl RB Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt, both operating behind an exceptional line.
