Browns Week 15 game vs. Giants moved to Sunday Night Football

The Browns-Giants game gets flexed to primetime

The Browns are getting some well-deserved respect from the NFL broadcast partners. Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Cleveland’s Week 15 matchup with the New York Giants has been moved to a primetime game.

Originally set as a 1 p.m. ET kickoff, the NFL flexed the Browns-Giants game to the Sunday Night Football slot on NBC. The regularly scheduled matchup for SNF, Dallas versus San Francisco, takes over the 1 p.m. slot.

Cleveland is 9-3 and could conceivably clinch a playoff berth in the Giants matchup. New York has won four in a row to surge to first place in the NFC East, albeit with a 5-7 record.

It will be the second national audience in a row for the Browns, who play the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football in Week 14.

Every prime time NFL game featuring former Georgia football players

After the release of the 2020 NFL schedule, here’s a look at every prime-time game that former Georgia football players will appear in.

On Thursday, the NFL released its 2020 schedule, providing more optimism that a football season will take place come September.

With Georgia having added seven new players into the league via the NFL Draft, there’s going to be a number of UGA fans hoping for a chance to watch some former Dawgs play on prime-time television.

The Patriots, Cowboys, Chiefs, Packers, 49ers, Rams and Buccaneers will be featured most in prime time during the 2020 NFL season with five games apiece.

Georgia players on those teams:

Cowboys, Packers and Bucs do not have any Bulldogs.

Patriots: C David Andrews, RB Sony Michel, OL Isaiah Wynn

Chiefs: WR Mecole Hardman

49ers: TE Charlie Woerner

Rams: OLB Leonard Floyd, ILB Natrez Patrick, DB Tyrique McGhee.

Here is a list of every nationally televised NFL game featuring Georgia Bulldogs.

Some of these game are subject to a time change and some of the players signed as undrafted free agents. As of right now, these are the teams they are on.

2020 Browns schedule: Biggest storylines from Browns’ regular season slate

2020 Browns schedule: Biggest storylines from Browns’ regular season slate

The Cleveland Browns will be one of the most scrutinized teams in the NFL in 2020. That comes from having several high-profile players, a brand new coaching staff and front office (again) and the weight of a lengthy postseason drought clashing with the bright promise of a talent-laden roster.

They’ll be tested by fire right away. Week 1. In Baltimore. Reigning MVP Lamar Jackson and the 14-2 Ravens from a year ago is trial by fire, and it’s easy to believe the NFL arranged that deliberately.

How that first game turns out definitely shapes the narrative for the next few weeks. A win in Baltimore would be a massive confidence-builder and grab national attention. But laying an egg against Joe Burrow and the Bengals the following week or the Redskins in Week 3 would kill any positive buzz.

On the flip side, if the team falls in Week 1 but rallies for strong, controlling wins against the teams that picked No. 1 and 2 in April, it’s a sign of professionalism and resiliency. Those were not qualities the 2019 Browns possessed, and it would be a welcome development.

It goes without saying that the national spotlight will be on Myles Garrett’s return to Heinz Field in Pittsburgh in Week 6. How will Garrett handle the infamous incident from last year? Will the Steelers attempt retribution? How do the Browns conduct themselves in front of what figures to be a volatile, hostile crowd?

Two late road games in New York in Weeks 15 and 16 could very well be the difference between playing for a playoff berth in the Week 17 rematch against the Steelers or licking wounds and wondering what happened to all the promise.

Then there’s that Steelers game at FirstEnergy in Week 17. If that game indeed means postseason or die, so many narratives will be written. Baker Mayfield. Kevin Stefanski. Perhaps Jimmy Haslam as an owner. They’ll all face judgment on the outcome.

We can’t wait. It’s going to be a fascinating season for the Browns.
