The defense of the Cleveland Browns came up just a little short on Sunday as the team fell to the Seattle Seahawks by a score of 24-20. The day started slow on defense before Cleveland settled in and held Seattle in check for most of the second half until allowing the game-winning touchdown late. For the Browns, however, defensive tackle Maurice Hurst and defensive end Myles Garrett continue to shine.
This game is one Jim Schwartz and his defense will want back as they struggled to pressure Geno Smith and the Seahawks’ offense consistently. Cleveland generated 26 quarterback pressure but was only able to produce one sack by Myles Garrett throughout the game.
In the end, they had a good game and if the offense had held up their end of the bargain the team would likely be 5-2 facing the Cardinals instead of 4-3. The defense will have a great shot at getting rolling again as the one-win Cardinals are coming to town Sunday.
Here are the 10 best performers in Sunday’s loss to the Seahawks according to PFF.
