Myles Garrett : ‘lack of importance in practice on forcing turnovers’

Cleveland’s best defensive player has some thoughts on the urgency in practice to force turnovers

This is not the first time that team captain Myles Garrett has sought accountability after a tough loss. And as the Cleveland Browns dropped to 3-7 on the season, losing to the Buffalo Bills, Garrett had more to say on the team’s practice habits. This time, Garrett stated there is a lack of importance on taking the ball away in practice.

Asked about the emphasis on creating turnovers, Garrett stated:

“The lack of importance when we go out there to practice. It just has to be more important to us if we want to force those takeaways in a game. We have goals… and we have to be better. Once we start forcing those takeaways like we have been the last couple of years, then we will see some of the results start to fall in our favor.”

Browns vs. Bills Instant Analysis: Browns waste another good showing from Jacoby Brissett

The Browns dropped to 3-7 on the season after failing to capitalize on a heroic performance from Jacoby Brissett.

The Cleveland Browns have now dropped to 3-7 on the season after a 31-23 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Wrapping up a wacky week where both teams were forced to travel to Detroit due to a snowstorm in Buffalo, the Bills were still able to take care of business, advancing to 7-3 on the season.

What makes this worse? The Browns wasted a solid and borderline heroic performance from Jacoby Brissett. While his numbers are not impressive, Brissett made plays in and out of the pocket and was frequently let down by his receivers, but he did manage to hit Amari Cooper for a 25-yard touchdown. He finished the game with a line of 28-of-41 passing for 324 yards and three touchdowns on the day.

Other than wasting a good showing from Brissett, what stood out most in this loss to the Bills?

WATCH: Jacoby Brissett and Amari Cooper connect again for garbage-time touchdown

The Browns have scored a garbage time touchdown as Jacoby Brissett and Amari Cooper connect for a second time vs. the Bills.

After another nasty sideline catch by Donovan Peoples-Jones (the first clip of the video), the Cleveland Browns score a garbage-time touchdown as quarterback Jacoby Brissett connects with Amari Cooper for the second time today.

Losing this game by two scores, all hope is lost for the Browns to pull this off. However, the motto of Brissett throughout his career has been to continue to fight until the end. He will likely be rewarded for that and may land another bridge role next season. A good game for both Brissett and Cooper, the Browns’ season is now officially all but over after this loss to the Bills.

Martin Emerson leaves game in second quarter vs. Bills

The Browns, already without Greg Newsome, may be without rookie cornerback Martin Emerson as well.

The Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills are locked in a close game in the first half at Ford Field. The Browns, however, have been struck by the injury bug not once, but twice already. After center Ethan Pocic left on the first play of the game, now rookie cornerback Martin Emerson has left the game as well.

Emerson, however, was shown standing on the sidelines with his helmet on and did not go into the medical tent. He very well could return soon in this matchup as the Browns look to steal a win from the Bills here in Detroit.

Browns lose C Ethan Pocic on first play, now in locker room

The Browns have lost center Ethan Pocic on the very first play of the game as he is questionable to return vs. the Bills

[mm-video type=playlist id=01eqbw33aqtym0ft0g player_id=none image=https://brownswire.usatoday.com/wp-content/plugins/mm-video/images/playlist-icon.png]

It only took one play for the Cleveland Browns to fall behind the injury bug as center Ethan Pocic has left with a knee injury. Pocic is questionable to return for the Browns as Hjalte Froholdt has entered the game at center for Cleveland.

Up 7-3 on the Buffalo Bills after an Amari Cooper touchdown on the opening drive of the game, the defense has bucked up on two straight drives. The Browns, however, have not had much luck running the football, and the loss of Pocic has been the primary factor in this one. The Browns are looking to get their fourth win of the season and steal one from the Bills here.

Browns announce 7 inactives including rookie DE Isaiah Thomas

The Browns and Bills have announced their inactives for today’s game. One surprise, however, is rookie defensive end Isaiah Thomas.

As the Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills near closer to game time, they have each announced their inactives list for the day. The Bills will be without multiple starters and first round cornerback Kaiir Elam, while the Browns look as healthy as they have been all season.

None of the Browns’ inactives are a surprise except for seventh round rookie defensive end Isaiah Thomas, who has been solid in his rotational role this season. With the return of Chase Winovich from Injured Reserve, however, it looks as though the Browns are opting to give his snaps to the veteran.

The other names who will not suit up for the Browns include quarterback Kellen Mond, hybrid player Demetric Felton, cornerback Greg Newsome, safety D’Anthony Bell, guard Drew Forbes, and defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey.

Nick Chubb needs just 46 yards vs. Bills to join historic group

With just 46 yards rushing today, Browns running back Nick Chubb can join Adrian Peterson and Ladainian Tomlinson in exclusive territory

There have not been a ton of bright spots this season for the Cleveland Browns, but one of them has certainly been running back Nick Chubb. As the Browns get set to take on the Buffalo Bills in Detroit today, Chubb is just 46 rushing yards away from joining a group that includes just Adrian Peterson and LaDainian Tomlinson.

Peterson and Tomlinson are the only two running backs in NFL history who have recorded 950 rushing yards and eight touchdowns in each of their first five seasons in the NFL. Chubb already has double-digit touchdowns on the season and needs just 46 yards to get to 950. The Bills have a stout run defense, but Chubb has not rushed for less than 56 yards in a game all season.
