Cleveland Browns offensive players have raved about their first impression of OC Norv Turner’s scheme. ‘Defenses will be shocked to say the least with how much we’re running downfield,’ WR Josh Gordon said. WR Greg Little said Turner ‘calls more post and go routes than I’ve ever run before.’ ESPN Stats and Information cites that the Browns threw the ball 10 yards or fewer downfield on 73.3 percent of their 2012 passes, and 20 yards or more on only 9 percent.
Our View: Turner knows how to build a strong offense. The Browns have the pieces in place to produce more than some think in 2013. It will all come down to the QB competition and how the winner performs. Brandon Weeden and Jason Campbell are battling for the starting job in camp.
