Cleveland Browns (0-2 Preseason) vs. Seattle Seahawks (1-1 Preseason)
The Browns have struggled in the preseason, going 0-2, but their running and passing games have shown promise. But of course, the numbers don’t tell the whole story where he was responsible for grinding out difficult yards with an average of 2.1 per carry. His best run of six yards seems paltry, but his steadiness can help Cleveland win better field positions. Jamari Thrash has accumulated 68 yards on 6 catches, evidencing that he is a receiver quarterbacks can count on. This performance and team’s focus on developing effective passing plays go in line with some essential tips to be observed as the Ravens-Packers clash saw balls being moved through small openings.
On the other hand, the Seahawks are walking into this game with a more balanced preseason performance as compared to its previous opponent. Kenny McIntosh, the team’s back sensation has been fantastic, as he got an average of 5.4 yards from his personal carries after having only rushed it sixteen times. So we will see some Panthers vs. Bills tactics involving dynamic playmaking by tailbacks like him who can split secondaries open when necessary. On top of that, Easop Winston Jr had himself quite a day catching five passes for seventy-seven yards including one TD grab in air department alone He must bring down passes and increase yardage after catch because Seattle plans to go vertical this time around.
Dorian Thompson-Robinson QB vs. Sam Howell QB
Thompson-Robinson, who plays for the Browns, learned from his efforts in the preseason. For instance, in two games, he managed to complete 77.1% of all passes made which amounted to 260 yards. Although it is too early to say that there have been no single touchdowns thrown and one pick, however, it is clear that he has learned how to control tempo of the game and avoid sacks. Still, even with no scores registered a lofty completion % and modest average pass yardage (7.4) suggest some promise ahead.
On the other hand, Sam Howell of the Seahawks has been more statistically impressive. Two touchdown passes with zero interceptions really underscore how well Howell performs when put under pressure. Throughout this piece, we will discover that Sam Howell’s performance has been consistent, unlike the other quarterbacks, as shown in the passer rating of 102 that he has maintained throughout.
