There's a major reason the Cleveland Browns struggled so mightily in Pittsburgh in Week 8. They lost the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball.
Lance Reisland joins Spencer German to highlight what went wrong in the trenches for Cleveland in Week 8. The conversation begins on the offensive side of the ball, where Reisland explains that both the o-line and quarterback played a role in a forgettable eight-sack day. He also highlights how he'd look to assist the unit to get off to faster starts.
Later, the focus shifts to the defense, where the guys discuss why Mike Rutenberg's group has struggled to stop the run in back-to-back weeks. Plus, Reisland breaks down the run concepts that have hurt the Browns defense the most.
