Alright!!!  Now we are going have some up and down play on Sunday especially with Walker and this might be a game where the defense isn’t its stellar self.  Hang with them

What a difference a day makes! Based on the lobs Watson was throwing Thursday, virtually everyone said Watson had no chance to play this weekend, and probably not for a few MORE weeks. Well guess what? Watson was apparently throwing with gas yesterday and ramped it up nicely, so pending any setbacks, it's effing GO TIME. 

So what's that mean for the game? Honestly it means everything. I really don't like to hammer a Browns player, but like I've said before, people aren't truly understanding how badly PJ Walker played. For example, he made ONE pass to the middle and it got picked off early. He didn't LOOK to the middle until the very last drive where he bounced two passes to a wide open Moore who had miles of separation. He literally couldn't and wouldn't throw to the middle, which means 49's never really tried to defend it. Defense gets really easy when you just defend the sidelines, and that's when you get desperate and throw awful back shoulder fades that get picked off. 

Back to Watson. There will be no rust. There will be no "easing him into the game". Watson would NOT be playing unless he was healthy, which is why it took so long for him to come back. This game is in a dome, and not only that, but a dome where Watson averages 300 yards and 2 tds a game. Expect an overemphasized approach to getting Moore the ball in space, and not gadget runs, as well as force-feeding Njoku. Additionally, the Colts best run stuffing NT is now suspended for 6 games, and that's HUGE for us.

Lastly, Colts starting RT is out and their worst OL is starting. Colts have gods at LG and Center, but everyone else is DEPLORABLE. Gardner is worst in the league at dealing with Pressure. It's the NFL, weird shit happens on the road which keeps it close, but Browns pull away late after Colts are forced to go for a 4th down and fail to convert. 

Browns - 31

Colts - 13
