Browns Studs and Duds: Which players had the largest impact in vs. Seahawks?

Amari Cooper, David Njoku and Kareem Hunt were the most impactful players in the game against the Seahawks.

Every Sunday, the Cleveland Browns find novel ways to lose football games. It was no different against the Seattle Seahawks, as the Seahawks intercepted a pass deflected off a helmet. I know soccer is a growing sport in America, but I never expected to see a header in the real version of football. It’s truly incredible how the Browns manage to fail spectacularly in the most pain-inducing way possible.

What makes the situation more pathetic is that the Browns looked like the talented team fans expected after trailing 14-0 to start the game. The defense locked down the Seahawks during the second and third quarters. The offense clawed and fought their way back from the deficit. The team relied on its star players and offensive leaders.

For most of the game, it looked like the Browns could compete with any team in the NFL. It’s important to remember the Seahawks are one of the most talented teams in the NFC and a frontrunner to win the NFC West. Overall, the Browns leave the Emerald City with a loss, falling further behind in the race for the AFC North. Here are the studs and duds in the humiliating defeat in Seattle.

Browns vs. Seahawks: The best images from the gritty slugfest

The Browns and the Seahawks made for some beautiful pictures.

The Cleveland Browns may have lost to the Seattle Seahawks on the road, and in devastating fashion, but at least they got some great pictures out of this Week 8 showdown.

PJ Walker and company played a solid game for 80 percent of the game as they had Geno Smith and the Seahawks on the ropes. However, they could not close out the game as both sides of the ball collapsed in the last two minutes of the game, losing 20-24. The now 4-3 Browns will look to rebound next week against the 1-7 Arizona Cardinals.

Here are the best shots as the Browns were unable to steal a win on the road over the now 5-2 Seahawks.

The good, the bad, the ugly: The Browns had the Seahawks on the ropes

There was a lot of good, some bad, then it was all ugly in the last two minutes.

With a key opportunity to advance to 5-2 on the season, the Cleveland Browns missed a golden opportunity and folded down the stretch against the Seattle Seahawks. They lost the game 20-24. Head coach Kevin Stefanski and quarterback PJ Walker were having their best game of the season for the majority of the game, but both sides of the football ran out of gas in crunch time.

The Browns have now fallen to 4-3 on the season as the 1-7 Arizona Cardinals are set to come to town in Week 9.

There was a great deal of good in this game to take away! The run game got going, the offense sustained drives with frequency, and the defense locked down Geno Smith and company for the majority of the game. However, there were some bad and ugly in this game as well.

What was good? What was bad? And what was downright ugly from this loss to the Seahawks?

Browns Twitter reacts to a gut-wrenching last-minute loss vs. Seahawks

The Browns came roaring back only to have their hearts ripped out on the Seahawks final offensive drive of the game.

It was a rollercoaster of emotion for Cleveland Browns fans as they watched the team fight back from a 14-0 deficit only to have their hearts broken in a 24-20 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Kevin Stefanski coached a great ball game offensive getting the most out of their backup quarterback and a running game without Nick Chubb.

In the end, it was an interesting decision to put the ball in the hands of P.J. Walker to try and win the game. The offensive line played their best game collectively and they were running the ball at will, especially in the second half. However, it is worth pointing out that there were two players wide open if Walker had just not locked onto Amari Cooper.

It was a hard-fought game that proved there is plenty of talent on this roster if they can just get average quarterback play. Whatever you want to say about Stefanski his teams come to play and play hard for him week in and out. Let’s see how Browns Twitter reacted to the loss.

4 Downs: Browns blow a golden opportunity vs. Seahawks

The Browns had a great opportunity to beat the Seahawks with Kevin Stefanski and PJ Walker in sync for most of the game. Until they weren’t.

This one is tough to accept. The Cleveland Browns had the Seattle Seahawks on the ropes for all of the second half. They fell down 14-0 early, fought back, and dominated the time of possession the rest of the way. Head coach Kevin Stefanski called one of his very best games as the lead man of the Browns, and quarterback PJ Walker was making some throws you would not expect him to make.

Then the wheels fell off with two minutes left in the game. All-in-all, the Browns fell to the Seahawks in this Week 8 bout by a score of 20-24. With 5-2 right in their grasps, the Browns sit now at 4-3 on the season with the Arizona Cardinals next up on the docket.

What stood out most from this game? This one was a tough one to steal takeaways from, because for the better part of the game it played out just as Browns fans hoped that it would. Your backup quarterback was doing enough, the run game was going strong, the defense created two turnovers and stuffed Geno Smith and the Seattle offense on eight straight third downs.

Yet the Browns found a way to lose. Here is a gut-wrenching 4 Downs.

Browns OT Ty Nsekhe leaves Seahawks game with a bicep injury

Offensive tackle Ty Nsekhe leaves Seahawks game with a bicep injury.

Offensive tackle Ty Nsekhe has been ruled out of the Seahawks game after suffering a bicep injury. The 38-year-old veteran tackle was signed to the Browns’ practice squad for most of the season. Nsekhe was promoted to the active roster yesterday. The journeyman tackle was injured in his only play. Hopefully, the injury isn’t too serious for the veteran tackle. It’s always sad to see a career put in jeopardy by injury.

The Browns lost starting offensive tackle Dawand Jones before halftime with a shoulder injury. James Hudson III is the current right tackle.

The Browns are battling the Seahawks going into the final minutes of the game. The team will have to depend on their offensive passing game at some moment during the end. Hopefully, they will not be further affected by injuries.

WATCH: DT Maurice Hurst II gets Browns second interception vs. Seahawks

Another takeaway for the Browns defense

One of the most underrated signings this offseason for the Cleveland Browns was when Andrew Berry took a chance on defensive tackle Maurice Hurst II. He’s an incredibly talented player who just hasn’t been able to stay healthy the last few years. Well, he has been healthy for Cleveland so far and so far he is showing the potential he always had.

With the game tied, he tipped a Geno Smith pass at the line of scrimmage and came down with the interception himself. The defense continues to make plays after a slow start to the game and is setting up the offense to get points and the lead.

Myles Garrett has been a little quiet so far today but his teammates have shown up and covered for him. Though they are dealing with some injuries they have shown resilience and bounced back from the slow start on the road in Seattle.

Injury Alert: Browns RT Dawand Jones questionable to return vs. Seahawks with injury

The Browns lose another player to injury

The Cleveland Browns have started to unravel in terms of injuries. Player after player has started to fall off the field as they are locked in a tie with the Seattle Seahawks. This time, right tackle Dawand Jones has exited the game with a shoulder injury suffered in the third quarter. He is questionable to return. The Browns and Seahawks are currently locked at 17-17 in the third quarter.

Jones, of course, is starting because All-Pro right tackle Jack Conklin suffered a season-ending injury in the first game of the season. Jones has been a brick wall and a steal for the Browns this season, so losing him would be a big hit to their offense.

Former fourth rounder James Hudson III has entered the game in place of Jones as the Browns try to pull off their third straight win.

WATCH: Browns CB Martin Emerson Jr. shut door on Seahawks’ first half scoring chances

Emerson Jr. ends the scoring threat

The defense of the Cleveland Browns had a bad start to the first half against the Seattle Seahawks before recovering in the second quarter. After a Cleveland punt, Seattle drove down the field to try and end the half with points but corner Martin Emerson Jr. ended those chances with an interception.

Emerson Jr. had been picked on some allowing a couple of big plays but read that final play perfectly and jumped the route to end the Seahawks drive. The defense will need to figure things out as the offense has begun to show signs of life. After two early turnovers, the Browns find themselves down by only three points heading into the second half.

It has been a battle between Emerson Jr. and DK Metcalf so far and it truly has been a lot of fun to watch. The defensive line is getting close but they will need to step it up and get to Geno Smith in the second half.

Browns LB Tony Fields II exits vs. Seahawks

Browns linebacker Tony Fields II leaves Seahawks game with an injury.

Cleveland Browns linebacker Tony Fields II exited the game against the Seattle Seahawks during the second quarter. The third-year linebacker was injured during the punt return as he was near the tackle pile. Fields is a special teams ace and the primary backup to the starting linebackers. In last week’s thrilling victory over the Colts, Fields recovered a fumble in the end zone to help spark the win.

Fields is a talented backup with a nose for the football. Hopefully, Fields returns against the Seahawks. The Browns are down 14-17 against the Seahawks and need all the help they can get.

There has been no update on what Fields II exited the field with.
