3. Generate pressure with the Front Four
According to Next Gen Stats, Myles Garrett leads the NFL with 18 quarterback pressures and four turnovers generated as a direct result of his pressures. Those are Defensive Player of the Year type stats, and they will be needed more than ever against the Cowboys' top-ranked passing offense in Week 4. Hopefully Olivier Vernon will be back this week because the Browns defensive front will need all hands on deck to generate the consistent pressure on Prescott. That will be critical to slow him down Sunday.
From a clean pocket, Prescott is completing 76 percent of his passes for 943 yards (8.9 yards per attempt), five touchdowns, zero interceptions and a quarterback rating of 117.8. When under pressure, however, Prescott becomes pedestrian, completing only 43 percent of his passes for 245 yards (6.6 yards per attempt), zero touchdowns, two interceptions and a quarterback rating of 43.2. His completion percentage and quarterback rating under pressure rank 25th and 29th in the NFL, respectively.
Blitzing Prescott is not the answer, as he is currently averaging 10 yards per attempt and has a quarterback rating of 110.7 against the blitz this season. So the pressure must come from the Browns' defensive line, a unit that has produced 48 pressures and seven sacks through the first three games, per Pro Football Focus. So this is a massive game for Garrett, Vernon, Adrian Clayborn, Porter Gustin, Sheldon Richardson, Larry Ogunjobi, Jordan Elliott, Joe Jackson and Vincent Taylor to disrupt Prescott, and they must do it consistently.
