Cleveland trotting QB Deshaun Watson back out there doesn't exactly inspire confidence. When you consider he'll face a Todd Bowles defense that blitzed at the third-highest rate (48.6 percent) in Week 1, and that Watson completed 2 of 5 passes for 20 yards and an INT with two sacks taken when blitzed in Week 1, it's a recipe for another frustrating day for Browns fans.

Brooke (NFL.com) states "Cleveland trotting QB Deshaun Watson back out there doesn't exactly inspire confidence" and calls the matchup "a recipe for another frustrating day for Browns fans." Pete Prisco (CBS Sports) projects the Buccaneers to win 30-10, citing the Browns' "horrible showing in Week 1 in Jacksonville."
