• Browns Pass Rush Improvements by the Numbers (Sports Illustrated) “The Browns had a measly 34 sacks in 2022, 16 of which came from Myles Garrett. That’s a whopping 47 percent. It served to highlight how dominant Garrett is while illuminating just how ineffective everyone else was.”
• 3 things to watch during Browns OTAs (clevelandbrowns.com) “Those three practices — which are the last time the Browns will be together until training camp — will arrive one week earlier than normal on the offseason calendar due to the Browns also starting training camp a week earlier to prepare for the Hall of Fame Game on Aug. 3 in Canton.”
• More credit for Nick Chubb who ranks first in elusiveness per PFF (Browns Wire) “Regarding elusiveness during the 2022 campaign, Chubb forced a ridiculous 83 missed tackles last year. The offense will change and see a more vertical passing attack but there is no chance they don’t make sure Chubb gets the ball early and often in 2023.”
