Objectively speaking, this team is different than others in the past decade.
The differences being:
1. A competent QB. Can anyone seriously dispute that Taylor is the best QB in Cleveland since Pro-Bowl Derek Anderson?
2. WRs. We know Gordon is good. We know Landry is good. When was the last time the Browns had two Pro-Bowl receivers at the same time?
3. RBs. When was the last time the Browns had such depth and talent at RB?
4. The O-Line is solid even with Thomas retiring.
5. I am more prosaic about the Defense. It was ranked 14th last year, a year that had them on the field way too long thanks to an incompetent Offense. Do we think they got worse? No.
6. The D-Line is healthy and a year added to the youngsters' belts.
7. The Defensive Backfield was an utter disaster. Since then, they added a Blue-Chip CB, and too very solid DBs.
The Defense will be Top Ten. I bet the Offense might be too. That said, it is highly unlikely this team will win fewer than 5-6 games.
