The state of the Browns
Yes, this might sound odd coming from a Bengals perspective given the miserable season so far. But the Browns were alleged contenders before stumbling to 5-7 while held back from bad playcalling, if not overall culture by head coach Freddie Kitchens. The Browns have scored more than 21 points in a game just once since a Week 7 bye, Mayfield has regressed, Myles Garrett is banned, the run defense is one of the NFL’s worst and sidetrack items such as Odell Beckham Jr. fielding questions about his future with the team continue to distract. In other words, the Browns seem primed for an upset.
