Storylines to Watch
- How the Browns utilize the run game — Through the first two weeks of the season, the Panthers are allowing an average of 224 rushing yards per game — the most in the league. While the Browns have struggled to consistently find success on the ground, as they are averaging 65.5 rushing yards per game, they have a chance to find opportunities to move the ball on the ground in Week 3 and open up the pass game. The Browns can look to involve RB Quinshon Judkins, who has 24 carries for 54 rushing yards in the first two games of the season.
- How the Browns limit the Panthers' passing attack— Panthers QB Bryce Young has taken advantage of the pass game in the first two weeks of the season, as Carolina is leading the league with an average of 312.5 passing yards per game. In Week 1, the Panthers recorded 353 net passing yards, while in Week 2 they totaled 272 net passing yards. However, the Browns' defense has gone 47 straight games without allowing a 300-yard passer, the longest active streak in the NFL and the longest streak by any NFL team since the Colts went 52 games from 2005-08. Pressuring Young while in the pocket and covering intended pass catchers can help the defense keep that streak alive, and limit the success of the Panthers' passing attack in Week 3.
- How the Browns stack plays to move the chains — QB Deshaun Watson noted how the Panthers' defense excels at not giving up big plays, due to their stout defensive front, reactive linebackers and experienced secondary. In Week 1 against the Bears, Carolina gave up an average of 7.9 yards per play, but in Week 2, only allowed an average of 4.3 yards per play. The Browns will have to find ways to earn yards through the run and the pass game to move the chains and earn first downs to put themselves in scoring position.
