Dawgs By Nature
The latest Cleveland Browns news and notes from around the NFL in the Sunday Dawg Chow.
The NFL hits a milestone this weekend as once the final gun sounds on Monday night’s game between the Houston Texans and Dallas Cowboys, every team in the league will have played 10 games.
That means the focus turns to the race to the playoffs and there are some key matchups to watch this week.
On Thursday night we saw the Philadelphia Eagles take care of the Washington Commanders and take hold of first place in the NFC East.
Today brings key AFC games between the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers, as well as the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills. One could also toss in the Sunday night tilt between the Cincinnati Bengals and Los Angeles Chargers if one was feeling generous.
Sadly, the Cleveland Browns, who will take on the New Orleans Saints this afternoon, have been reduced to playing the role of spoiler as their playoff hopes faded away in a mix of poor play from quarterback Deshaun Watson and an inability to distinguish between throwing the ball to his receivers and the other team’s secondary from quarterback Jameis Winston.
Such is life for the Browns and their fans over the next eight weeks, starting today with what might be Cleveland’s last best chance at picking up a win before everything comes to a close the first weekend of January.
While you are waiting for today's kickoff, here is the latest news and notes about the Browns and the rest of the NFL in today’s edition of the Sunday Dawg Chow.
