Should We Worry About Letdown?

The demolition of the Patriots has me worried that the team will come out flat this week. But, MK Cabot's article highlights some indications that the team is showing strong motivation for the game.

I also sense the defense does not want to get shown up by Braylon - especially in front of the home crowd. I really hope the defense takes it to him and Sanchez.

FTA...
The practice week was so intense that linebacker Jason Trusnik and fullback Lawrence Vickers came to blows Friday and had to be separated. "It was just the heat of the moment," said Trusnik. Said Rob Ryan: "Our players are motivated, and they're excited. If they don't kill each other first, we're going to lay it on these Jets."

Rob Ryan on Braylon Edwards:

I’ll hit him on the sideline if he wants to come over.

If you have NFL rewind you have to watch Ryan’s enthusiasm when the TE for the Patriots landed on the ground next to him.

I fully expect us to win, but if we lose, we’d be losing to the (sadly, because I hate them) best team in the AFC, maybe NFL, so I won’t be that devastated.

Will I be let down? Yeah. That’s a part of being a fan of ~~an NFL team~~ any sports team.

My initial concern was that the Browns would have an emotional letdown this week. After beating two top teams, the Browns would be basking in that glory and not have much focus and motivation this week.

But after reading a few recent articles, the Browns appear to be highly focused, while the Jets appear to be thinking more about other things rather than Sunday’s game.
