It's our official Browns season preview podcast. Listen back to our live podcast held at the Music Box Supper Club on Wednesday night.

Mary Kay Cabot, Doug Lesmerises, Ashley Bastock, Irie Harris, Dan Labbe and Lance Reisland took a look ahead at the 2022 Browns. What do the Browns need to do in their first 11 games? What are realistic expectations for Deshaun Watson when he returns? How will we judge Kevin Stefanski on this season? What about Andrew Berry? We also take Q&As.

Our film guy, Lance Reisland, stopped by, too, and offered up his analysis on the Browns defensive tackles. Don't worry, you don't need to see the clips to get the gist of what he's talking about.

Garrett Bush of The Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of The Locked on Browns Podcast Preview the NFL Week 1 Matchup between the Cleveland Browns vs. Carolina Panthers. Will The Cleveland Browns Be Able To Slow Down Christian McCaffrey? Will Myles Garrett dominate the Panthers Rookie Left Tackle. Will the Browns Defense be able to frustrate their former franchise QB Baker Mayfield?

First Drive Dominance

In 2021, the Panthers were the only team that didn't allow a touchdown on the opening drive of every game. Carolina allowed just nine points on opening drives with three field goals, one takeaways and 13 punts.

Elite Pass Rusher

Brian Burns was elected to his first Pro Bowl in 2021 after finishing the season with 9.0 sacks. He now has 18.0 sacks in the last two seasons, tied for sixth-most among NFC players. His 25.5 career sacks are the most of his 2019 draft class. Burns also has 55 career QB hits (third in draft class), 26 tackles for loss (tied for fourth) and six strip sacks (tied for first).

Under the Radar

Wide receiver DJ Moore has posted three consecutive seasons with at least 1,100 receiving yards, something only Stefon Diggs has done elsewhere in the league. Moore is the only player with at least 1,200 total scrimmage yards in each of the last three seasons. Moore now ranks fourth in Panthers history with 4,313 career receiving yards and is sixth with 301 receptions.

The Browns moved on from Baker Mayfield this offseason, but it's left them in a pickle for 2022. They have to play 11 games without their new franchise quarterback, Deshaun Watson. Would they be better off, for this season only, with off-field issues out of the discussion, with the Jacoby Brissett-Deshaun Watson split or Baker Mayfield starting 17 games?

That's one of the questions our Football Insider subscribers had for Mary Kay Cabot in the Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the podcast.

They also had questions about the leash on Brissett, the importance of the first four games, players we're not talking enough about on offense and defense and more.

Cleveland Browns Legend Joe Thomas Joined Garrett Bush of The Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of The Locked on Browns Podcast to Preview the NFL Week 1 Matchup between the Cleveland Browns vs. Carolina Panthers. Joe Thomas Thinks The Browns Defense Will Be Ready For Baker Mayfield.

Why Cleveland Browns Will Win

The Brown running game has to hammer away from the start. The passing attack will be a massive question mark without the star parts at receiver – with some due respect to Amari Cooper – and Jacoby Brissett under center, but the backs are there to keep working and grinding against the okay Panther defensive front. Run the ball, rely on the pass rush to come through on third downs, and send everyone at 6 to see if he can handle the pressure. However....

Why Carolina Panthers Will Win

Not to assume the obvious, but who knows this Cleveland defense – at least the main parts – better than the guy who worked against it in practice every day? Baker Mayfield might not be Brady or Mahomes, but he’s an upgrade for the Carolina passing game. He’s got a healthy Christian McCaffrey to work with, his receiving corps is more loaded than it might seem, and it might not take too much to put the pressure on.

Go ahead. Make Brissett try to win this through the air.

Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper is about 15 minutes into an interview. He’s just off the practice field, spending extra time to work routes. It’s hot and there’s no shade. He spent the first five minutes of the interview catching his breath between answers.

He’s answering a question about his favorite route and you can tell he’s heard the question plenty of times before. Then he stops.

“Check this out, right?” he says. “All the routes are really the same if you think about it.”

That excerpt is from a story on Amari Cooper that ran on cleveland.com on Tuesday. In this podcast, you can hear the full interview between Cooper and Dan Labbe.

Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of the Locked On Browns Podcast discuss the latest Cleveland Browns News, Rumors, and Analysis. Garrett and Jeff project the Cleveland Browns 2022 break out players and Could Jadeveon Clowney Lead The Cleveland Browns In Sacks in 2022? The also discuss other potential breakout players for the Browns in the 2022 NFL season.

Jadeveon Clowney believes the Browns defense will be even better than a year ago, and it's hard to disagree with him. One reason why? Well, Clowney is still on the roster — the eighth-year defensive end veteran re-signed with the Browns in May, and his return gave the Browns a chance to run it back with eight of the 11 other starting defensive players from last season. The Browns ranked fifth in the league in total defense a year ago, and Clowney became a destructive force once the group clicked in the second half of the season. He registered 5.5 of his nine total sacks from the year in his last three games, and that number could be even higher if he didn't miss Weeks 14-15 due to being placed on the COVID-19 list.

Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of the Locked On Browns Podcast discuss the latest Cleveland Browns News, Rumors, and Analysis. Garrett and Jeff react Cleveland Browns claiming former Minnesota Vikings QB Kellen Mond. The Browns claimed former Vikings quarterback off of waivers. They speculate on whether Mond will have an impact in 2022.

Cleveland's acquisition of Mond is notable, as it wasn't previously believed that the Browns would add a third quarterback to their active roster. Rather, many expected Cleveland to sign a quarterback to its practice squad for emergency purposes, just as the team had done with Nick Mullens in 2021.

At this point, whether Baker Mayfield said what it was reported he said probably doesn't matter. It's out there and the Browns aren't going to shy away from using.

Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock, Irie Harris and Dan Labbe delve deeper into this story as Mayfield denied saying what Cynthia Frelund originally reported he said. The problem is it's out there and Browns players probably won't be too forgiving.

How much benefit of the doubt does Mayfield deserve given how often he's had to have backtracking press conferences? What impact will it have on the game regardless of whether it was said or not?

Then they discuss Mary Kay's story on Michael Woods II and how it came together.
