Jets-Browns Preview: 6 Questions with Dawgs By Nature With the Jets getting set to take on the Browns this week Authentic Leonard Williams Jersey , I was able to ask Chris Pokorny of Dawgs By Nature a few questions on the state of the Browns.1. The Browns currently rank 4th in lowest rate of opponent drives ending in scores and 2nd in highest rate of opponent drives ending in turnovers - and they did that in games against Ben Roethlisberger and Drew Brees. Is this Browns defense legitimately elite, and who have the key difference-makers been in elevating them to this level so far?2. Have to ask it - when are we going to see Baker Mayfield? How good of a job has Tyrod Taylor done in holding him off?3. Jarvis Landry has been the clear-cut number one receiving option to this point. How well has he fit into the offense?4. How is Hue Jackson still the head coach of the Browns? Is there anything visible to the eyes of the fanbase that he does legitimately well that they can point to when trying to rationalize his keeping of the position?5. Having seen this team nearly beat two elite rosters in a row, where do you stand on their outlook for the rest of the season in terms of their W/L potential?6. How do you think the Browns match up against the Jets in particular? Have they shown enough for a home matchup against the Jets to be a game they should be expected to win? For the second straight week, Darryl Roberts graces the title image of the coverage series, and deservedly so. Thrown into extended action in relief of Trumaine Johnson, he’s been playing some great football over the past two weeks.Let’s take a look at the numbers!Previous editions: Pre 1, Pre 2, Pre 3, Pre 4, W1-DET, W2-MIA, W3-CLE, W4-JAX, W5-DEN Youth Steve McLendon Jersey , W6-IND, W7-MINRULESThe coverage numbers include only legitimate targets into the general area of a receiver/defender; throws in which a defender in coverage was directly involved the outcome. Throwaways and deflections at the line are excluded.The stats for each individual are that of the quarterback’s passing numbers when targeting the individual’s matchup. A player could receive coverage credit even if a teammate finished the play. For example, against Denver this season, Morris Claiborne tipped a pass in this direction that ended up being intercepted by Marcus Maye. I credited Claiborne with that interception.Penalties and pass breakups counted are only those accumulated in coverage. Penalties/PBUs picked up on blitzes, or penalties tackling another player’s responsibility, are not included. PBUs and INTs in the box score are not exclusive to one another.“Burns mitigated by opponent miscue,” or “miscues” (M) are included in charting to attempt to knock defenders who benefited from an egregious error by the offense (drop, horrible throw) and give perspective to the validity of their raw stats. A defender can still register an interception or incompletion to his credit on a miscued play.First, here’s a look at each targeted player’s total numbers in coverage against Chicago.Next, let’s take a look at the coverage numbers broken down by individual player-vs.-player matchups and man coverage vs. zone coverage.Some takeaways:Darryl Roberts keeps balling out. After flashing against the Vikings last week with a performance in which he allowed only 96 yards on 16 targets, Roberts allowed only 15 yards on 5 targets against the Bears. He’s closing quickly on balls underneath and sticking tight on go routes. While his performances these past two weeks have not correlated into any victories, his play has been perhaps the primary reason the Jets have stayed in each of these last two games into the fourth quarter.Morris Claiborne has not had that game yet in which he has been utterly destroyed, but he’s inching closer. He continues to do a solid job overall, but the miscues he has benefited from continue to pile up Brian Winters Jersey , while his overall production has dipped over the past three weeks. He allowed 142 yards, 2 TDs, and 6 total first downs on 19 targets from Weeks 6-8, compared to 135 yards, 0 TDs, and 8 total first downs on 25 targets from Weeks 1-5.Buster Skrine was iffy in his return, most notably allowing a touchdown in the red zone to Anthony Miller.Avery Williamson has done a solid job overall in coverage, rarely allowing anything catastrophic, but he did allow a season-high 3 first downs this week, all in zone coverage.FILMRoberts likes to play a lot of off coverage so he can take advantage of his 4.38 speed to make plays like this one. (Outside left, top)This snap is another display of Roberts’ speed. He makes the correct read on this throw being a go route, and beats Taylor Gabriel to the spot (in spite of the overthrow). Roberts is on the bottom the screen outside left.Here’s a look at the season totals for the Jets over the first half of the season.
