Browns Plan For Dime To Be ‘Big Part’ Of Defense After Lacking Pieces To Run It Last Year

The Cleveland Browns managed to piece together enough over the previous several years to field a top-10 offense in the NFL in 2020, complete with perhaps the best offensive line in football, and the best one-two tandem in the backfield with Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt. Oh, and they also have Baker Mayfield at quarterback, throwing to Jarvis Landry and Odell Beckham Jr. (when healthy).

What they didn’t have last year was the corresponding defense to go along with it, and now, while a lot of that had to do with injuries, particularly in the secondary, they’re not looking to make excuses in 2021 for what happened in 2020.
