The team’s fourth selection https://www.brownsfanshop.com/Duke-Johnson-Jersey , No. 155 overall in the fifth round, was linebacker Mack Wilson of Alabama. Wilson was seen by many, including myself, as a player who slid down boards and could be a steal with how late he went and the skill set he possesses. So, what can the Browns expect from this Alabama linebacker? Well, let’s take a look at the film to diagnose the strengths and weaknesses of Mack Wilson’s game.Sione Takitaki excited about his Madden rating (247 Sports) - Cleveland Browns cornerback Greedy Williams was not happy with his Madden rating. He felt he was done an injustice. Fellow rookie, linebacker Sione Takitaki, was actually pleased with how the EA Sports’ video game portrayed him. Punter Britton Colquitt had the BYU product guess a few of his trait ratings and Takitaki was generally lower on himself than the game.Inner Circle pioneered drug, alcohol treatment (DPD) - The Cleveland Browns were one of the first teams to implement a plan to treat players for drug and alcohol addiction, creating a program known informally as the Inner Circle, though the path to 2019 has had some missteps along the way.NFL:The top 10 teams of the decade (NFL.com) - In a few weeks, we’ll forget all about the 2018 NFL season and think only about 2019. This makes sense. With only 16 chances for teams to meaningfully impact their fate, it would be silly to entertain thoughts about anything but the immediate present. But before we banish 2018 to the historical record, let’s take a July breather and look back even longer, all the way back to 2010 Greg Joseph Jersey , and consider the top 10 teams of this decade.The best NFL-themed beers (ESPN) - Football and beer -- what’s more uniting than that? Pairing a refreshing, easy-drinking beer and an intense, star-laden football game is something all of us -- OK, a great many of us -- can get behind. And so, on the day our nation celebrates its independence, we thought it would be fun to take a look at some of the best tribute beers throughout the NFL.Inside the lawsuit against the Sunday Night Football theme song (si.com) - From the first time it aired on Sunday Night Football last September, Carrie Underwood’s “Game On” has sparked conversation. Viewers have debated whether the song is an improvement or downgrade of Underwood’s “Oh, Sunday Night,” which played on SNF from 2014 to 2018 and which many viewers thought sounded much like Underwood and Miranda Lambert’s duet “Somethin’ Bad.” Below, we analyze the snap counts and stats on defense for the Cleveland Browns’ Week 9 game against the Denver Broncos.Defensive LinePosPlayerPlays%StatsPosPlayerPlays%StatsOlivier Vernon left Sunday’s game late with a knee injury, but there’s no update on his status yet. If he isn’t available, look how thin the depth looks at defensive end. Are you bumping Chad Thomas up to a starting-caliber player? The play of Vernon and Myles Garrett is sometimes taken for granted, just because the rest of the defense isn’t performing well.Even though it wouldn’t have counted due to a penalty, I do have to give a bit of a “come on!” to Garrett, who dropped an interception Jabrill Peppers Color Rush Jersey , looking like he’s never fielded a tipped pass before.LinebackerPosPlayerPlays%StatsPosPlayerPlays%StatsMack Wilson logged a sack on a play where both linebackers came on a blitz. Why didn’t the Browns bring the heat more on Brandon Allen, and trust their cornerbacks to cover a young receiving corp?Because Denver doesn’t run much 3-receiver sets, we actually saw the Browns in a 4-3 defense for half the game, as Adarius Taylor played 52% of the snaps.CornerbackPosPlayerPlays%StatsPosPlayerPlays%StatsDenzel Ward was beat twice by Courtland Sutton on one of Denver’s touchdown drives. The second play was a touchdown in which Ward had position, but was late in attacking the ball, allowing Sutton to “Moss” him.SafetyPosPlayerPlays%StatsPosPlayerPlays%StatsOne of the big stories during and after the game centered around Jermaine Whitehead. Aside from the Ravens game, he hasn’t been effective, despite playing the majority of snaps on defense. He missed two big tackles on Sunday as basically the last line of defense, and when you look at the stat sheet, he finished with “no stats registered.” The defense might as well have been playing with 10 players out there. I’d like to say that if Damarious Randall had been healthy, then maybe he prevents those plays from going as far, which in turn results in a different outcome of the game. But Randall has either been hurt or ineffective too for much of the season.
