Browns Week 5 snap counts has a lot of fluctuations

A lot of special teams snaps for starters, a lot of TE snaps and JOK finally takes a full workload on defense (but less on STs) in Week 5’s snap counts:

The Cleveland Browns fell to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 5 despite controlling most of the second half. The Browns had a number of important players out including starters left tackle Jedrick Wills, cornerback Greg Newsome II and defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, just to name a few.

The team also lost cornerback Denzel Ward and right tackle Jack Conklin during the game.

All of those injuries, as well as preferred personnel groupings, led to some interesting snap counts in Week 5. Even special teams were impacted by depth concerns.

In the end, the Browns failed to make a stop when they needed to and failed to make a play on offense when they needed to. Putting everything together, the team sits at 3 – 2 with the two losses coming to two very good teams in very similar ways.

Lets take a look at the snap counts for all three phases of the game:

Browns Vs Chargers: Everything we know in Cleveland loss

Some good, some bad and some ugly. A lot to take away from the Browns Week 5 loss and we are just getting started breaking it down this week:

The Cleveland Browns lost a tough Week 5 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers in a game they seemed to have control of most of the second half. Cleveland was either tied or leading Los Angeles starting with six minutes left in the second quarter until they lost the lead with 31 seconds left in the game.

An exciting game, the Chargers won 47 – 42 at home against the visiting Browns.

In the end, 531 yards of offense wasn’t enough to overcome the 493 yards from the home team. The Browns ran the ball well and didn’t turn the ball over. The Chargers just threw the ball more successfully, Justin Herbert toss it 398 yards with four touchdowns, overcoming an Austin Ekeler fumble for the game’s only turnover.

A key bogus pass interference call changed the game.

Here are immediate takeaways from the Week 5 loss for the Browns:

Browns burned by bogus pass interference call in loss to Chargers

The pass interference call directly contributed to the Browns losing the game to the Chargers

The Cleveland Browns fell to the Los Angeles Chargers in an epic shootout on Sunday. But the Chargers got a major assist from the officiating crew on a critical call that dramatically altered the game script.

Cornerback A.J. Green was flagged for a controversial (to be kind) defensive pass interference penalty on a Chargers fourth down. The interference on the play was quite clearly committed by Los Angeles WR Mike Williams. A drive that should have been over was instead boosted by the 33-yard penalty. Los Angeles would go on to score a touchdown.

It’s one of the worst calls you’ll ever see in an NFL game.

Don’t take my word for it. There are multitudes of people who will tell you how awful the call was in favor of the Chargers.

Browns Vs Chargers highlight: Browns answer late with Hunt TD run

The Browns respond to the Chargers tying the game with a quick drive finishing with this Kareem Hunt touchdown run:

The Cleveland Browns face off with the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 5 of the NFL season. Both teams enter the week with a 3 – 1 record but the Browns go on the road with a lot of injuries impacting both sides of the ball.

The Chargers, on the other hand, are mostly healthy and playing some very good football early in the year.

Following a Los Angeles drive that was saved by a questionable defensive pass interference call, that looked more like offensive pass interference, Cleveland’s offense took the field with the game tied.

After a pass to Kareem Hunt on the first play, which also had a face mask penalty tacked on, Baker Mayfield handed the ball four times. Nick Chubb had a nice 24-yard run and Kareem Hunt finished off the drive with an eight-yard run for the Browns to take the lead once again:

The Chargers get the ball back with a little over four minutes left in the game looking to try to tie it back up.

With 10:40 left in the fourth quarter, the Browns lead 35 – 28

Cleveland scored twice in the last minute of the first half. First, Kareem Hunt took it in for a score on fourth down. Then, the Browns defense forced a turnover leading to a Chase McLaughlin field goal to end the half.

After winning the coin toss to start the game, Cleveland took the second-half kick-off looking for a third straight score. On the fifth play of the half, Nick Chubb took a handoff to the right side, picked his way through the line of scrimmage before stiff-arming a defender and taking it for a 52-yard score:

Chubb now has over 100 yards rushing for the game and the Browns have a 27 – 13 lead early in the third quarter.

Browns Vs Chargers highlight: Hunt TD on 4th down

Another Browns highlight as Kareem Hunt scores on 4th down:

The Browns methodically drove down the field but once again faced a fourth down inside the redzone. This time, Kareem Hunt punched it in:

The Browns lead stands at 17 – 13 with under a minute remaining in the half. Cleveland also get the ball back after halftime after winning the opening coin toss.

After a great start to the drive with Anthony Schwartz’s return and David Njoku’s long tight-end screen reception, two penalties on the Chargers on third down kept the Cleveland drive alive. Baker Mayfield then found Rashard Higgins wide open for a touchdown:

The Browns take back the lead at 10 – 7 early in the second quarter. Down a few starters, the Cleveland offense has scored on both of their initial drives. Mayfield looks sharp, currently 5 for 5 passing for 81 yards and a touchdown.

The defense is also missing starters and needs to keep the Chargers from answering.

Cleveland continued to drive deep into Los Angeles territory as the first quarter ended. Until the last play of the quarter, Njoku was the only pass-catcher to have a reception. Donovan Peoples-Jones got in on the action with a 12-yard pass reception.

The Browns are driving but trail 7 – 3 at the end of the quarter.
