In week one against the Panthers, Jacoby Brissett had a very weird game. He made some timely passes, but overall, he wasn’t all that great.
How did Jacoby Brissett Perform?
In that game, he went 18/34 with 147 yards and one touchdown. The best pass he made was definitely on Cleveland’s game-winning drive.

But, the game was pretty sloppy overall. Especially with the controversial spike play that was run. In that play, Brissett delayed his spike, like a fake spike, and some thought that it should’ve been called intentional grounding.

Even though their offense’s first game of the season was a bit weird, Brissett did say that he expects it to be better in week two.
“I would assume that it will be a much cleaner game from our standpoint. We addressed a lot of the problems that caused a lot of those communication errors and those things. Looking forward to obviously going into this week of practice and preparation to correct those things so that on Sunday, they’re clean.”
Something else that he says was a problem was the communication among the offense.
“I just think it was confusion. It all falls back on communication. I think that is what was one of our bigger issues, and it had nothing to do with the other team and it had everything to do with us. We have another week to prepare and to fix those.”
Kevin Stefanski also thinks that it will get better.
“I could single out the entire offense, just operation. We were there in a loud environment in the heat. We did not operate clean enough, especially early. Put a lot of that on me, obviously. Also the quarterback, we put a lot on the quarterback, ask him to run that huddle and those type of things. I think he will continue to get better there.”
The offense really does need to step up, though. The first half was really bad, but it did get better in the second half. So, they need to build on that until Deshaun Watson returns.
