It's the third episode of Gotta Watch The Tape, a companion podcast here in the Orange and Brown Talk feed. On GWTT, two big areas of the Browns are chosen and dissected in each episode, with film analysis, numbers breakdowns and a spin toward what's next.

This time, the big game from Myles Garrett against Washington leads off. Scott Patsko breaks down how often Garrett is playing on the left side vs. the right side; how many snaps he's playing each week and what that means; how he's tied for first in the NFL in pressures this season; his overall defensive grade compared to other NFL stars; and where he is in his progression as a dominant force on the field.

Then it's onto the lack of speed on the Browns defense, and how that opens up the Browns to giving up big plays on the perimeter. Ellis Williams explains how effective Washington was with both run and pass plays on the perimeter; how Dallas might attack the Browns next; the idea of a bend-but-don't-break defense that does actually break; and the guys play several rounds of, "Is that guy slow?" in deciphering where the biggest speed problems are for the Browns on the back end.

Thanks for joining Scott, Ellis and Doug Lesmerises on Gotta Watch the Tape. We hope you're enjoying this new addition to our already excellent Browns podcasts.

It's episode two of Gotta Watch the Tape, the new Cleveland Browns podcast here in the Orange and Brown Talk feed. This pod is a companion to the daly Orange and Brown Talk and will come to you twice a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays. In each episode, Doug Lesmerises, Scott Patsko and Ellis Williams will break down two major topics around the Browns with film and stats, giving each issue a big 30-minute treatment.

On this ep, Scott starts off with a look at Browns right guard Wyatt Teller and how he's leading the charge in the Browns' run game. The Browns' opponent on Sunday, the Washington Football Team, has stopped the run effectively so far this season. But the Browns' offensive line has played even better, and the surprising Teller has been a major part of that. Scott explains how that has happened and why it's so important for this offense.

Then Ellis dives in on Odell Beckham Jr., and the expectations for him in this Kevin Stefanski offense. Ellis has a comparison to the Minnesota offense for Beckham, and he explains why fans may have to shift their view on his role for the Browns. He can still make big plays, but he might not make as many of them. And that might be the best thing for the Browns moving the ball. Ellis explains how OBJ did just what was asked in his new role last week, and even if his targets go down, Ellis believes that Beckham has still got it.

Thanks for listening to this new podcast, and we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoy making it here at cleveland.com.

The Browns host Washington on Sunday, their pass rush offering a stiff test for Baker Mayfield and Co. But that's not all for the Browns coming up. Two weeks from now they play the Colts, who can get after the quarterback a little and they have a trip to Dallas, which is always a big deal.

Mary Kay Cabot, Dan Labbe and Ellis Williams talk about what to expect from Baker Mayfield over the next three weeks in today's podcast, then look at the key matchups for Sunday's game.

We have some real games to work off and, while it might be hard to make any real judgments off games against one of the best and one of the worst teams in football, we're sure going to try.

Mary Kay Cabot, Dan Labbe and Scott Patsko picked something they liked and something they didn't from the first two weeks of the season. Then they predicted the team's record after five games and the player we'll be talking about after Sunday's game against Washington.

Lastly, Terry Pluto joins the pod to talk all things Browns.
