Matchup issues and advantages for the Titans in Cleveland: Scout's Take

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- My Cleveland Browns game preview...
Matchup concerns for the Titans:
Myles Garrett vs. Dennis Kelly
This matchup will dictate so many things that the Titans want to do on offense. First, they will not be able to match Kelly vs. Garrett 1 on 1. Kelly is a solid backup tackle with the ability to play multiple games as a starter, but he isn’t a true starter in the NFL.
Kelly is best on as a right tackle. On the left side, he is weak to his inside (right) hand. This issue has shown up multiple times in the preseason because Kelly oversets to his outside to take away the speed rush which he is less athletically capable to handle. Kelly has great size and does have strength in his frame, but he lacks the ability to recover and redirect his feet in pass protection.
