Jason Logan's Cleveland Browns preview for 2024, where the defense remains the biggest strength while the offense could easily underperform again.
The Browns will likely excel on defense and flail on offense... again. While Deshaun Watson doesn't inspire a lot of confidence, for a variety of reasons, Amari Cooper has at least shown an ability to thrive even when his QB is less than stellar.We’re entering Year 3 since the Browns’ infamous heel turn, signing Watson to a bonkers deal amid his sexual misconduct cases in 2022.
Yet, after 11 wins and a 10-6-1 ATS finish despite five different quarterbacks in 2023, bettors can’t ignore the promise of a healthy Watson and the talent-rich Browns in 2024. What the hell are we supposed to do now?!When stacked up against the Ravens and Bengals, the Browns are two victories behind in terms of win total and five games off in terms of look-ahead lines listing Cleveland as a favorite.
Things could get really sketchy if the Browns defense fails to play up to last year's numbers. Cleveland was susceptible against the run and gave up too many home run plays. It should also be noted that the Browns picked on some poor offenses and broken QBs along the way. The offense can't survive a shootout.The Browns have the toughest schedule when you factor in 2023 win percentage, 2024 projected wins, and the hard-knock life in the AFC North.
It should be noted that Cleveland does benefit from some advantageous spots as well. Week 7’s home game with the Bengals is Cincy’s second straight roadie and third in four weeks. Week 8 brings Baltimore to Cleveland on a short week after playing on Monday in Week 7, also putting the Ravens in a second of B2B and a third road game in a four-week squeeze.Amari Cooper has caught more than 70 balls in his two seasons in Cleveland despite six different quarterbacks making those throws.
