Morning Buzz: Packers set to take on the Browns

Welcome to your Morning Buzz, rounding up news and views regarding the Green Bay Packers from around the web and here at PackersNews.com. Grab a strong cup of coffee and get caught up on everything you need to know about the Packers as they prepare to take on the Cleveland Browns.

We’ll start with Tom Silverstein’s look at the strong play of Browns rookie Myles Garrett and the Packers' preparation to stop him.

From Tom:

The Packers will try to run the ball to make sure that quarterback Brett Hundley doesn’t bear the weight of the offense on his shoulders, but Cleveland ranks sixth in that department, allowing a league-low 3.3 yards per carry.

If they can’t run the ball, it’s going to free Garrett and his teammates to rev up their engines and go after Hundley. That’s the last thing the Packers can afford in a game they can’t lose.

Part of the difficulty in playing Cleveland is deciphering what defense Williams has his team in. The Browns line up in many different fronts, some of which can produce one-on-ones for Garrett.

“They run a ton,” center Corey Linsley said. “That's one of the things we notice on film too, the amount of miscommunication that other teams have had, just from the sheer diversity in the fronts.
