The Cleveland Browns enter this Week 6 contest against the undefeated San Francisco 49ers with a record of 2-2. They will be without starting quarterback Deshaun Watson once again in this one as practice squad veteran P.J. Walker will get his first start of the 2023 season after starting five games for the Carolina Panthers a year ago. Bettors are not high on the Browns either, as they sit as 9.5-point underdogs in this game against the NFC juggernaut.
However, can the Browns come out and do the unthinkable and upset the Niners with their backs against the wall? They face a tough task today as Brock Purdy, Kyle Shanahan, and the high-powered Niners’ offense come to town. Defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz has typically had the number of Shanahan, however, so maybe the Browns can squeak out an ugly win.
Here are our weekly Browns Wire staff predictions as the Browns look for their third win of the season today.
