Watson's -2.8 EPA and poor footwork tanked Browns offense in Week 1 loss.

Watson generated -2.8 EPA in Week 1 against Jacksonville, with his traditional box score numbers not fully reflecting how much he tanked Cleveland's offense with lazy footwork and poor reads. Gus Logue emphasizes that Watson's poor play was a primary reason Jacksonville dominated the Browns, and notes uncertainty about Bo Nix's ability to beat Jacksonville with his arm.
