Browns Defense Plays Well in Loss to Rams

The Cleveland Browns Defense played well in a 20-13 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 3. Cleveland racked up two sacks while forcing three turnovers in the loss.

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 3) - Targets and Avoids

The Patriots look unstoppable, the Steelers look like toast, and the Ravens look like they'll control the AFC North.

Week 3 Busts? Players To Consider Avoiding

Our Week 2 bust headliner was Drew Brees. Boy did he disappoint, but it wasn't because of a poor performance, but rather a thumb injury that required surgery and at least six weeks of rest. Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) will miss the rest of the season. Will JuJu Smith-Schuster be a season-long bust now? Injuries are […]

Denzel Ward Not Expected to Play; Upgrade Rams WRs

Cleveland Browns lockdown cornerback Denzel Ward (hamstring) is not expected to play against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night.

David Njoku Lands On Injured Reserve

The Cleveland Browns placed tight end David Njoku (wrist) on Injured Reserve on Friday and claimed safety Juston Burris off waivers from the Raiders in a corresponding move. Njoku had four catches for 37 yards and a touchdown in two games before getting injured in the Monday night win over the Jets. We'd recommend keeping […]

Rashard Higgins, Browns Corners Questionable Against Rams

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Rashard Higgins (knee) and cornerbacks Denzel Ward (hamstring) and Greedy Williams (hamstring) are all questionable to face the Rams on Sunday night in Week 3.

Browns Defense Not a Strong Option in Week 3

The Cleveland Browns Defense will welcome the Los Angeles Rams to First Energy Stadium on Sunday night.

Demetrius Harris Set for Increased Role

Cleveland Browns tight end Demetrius Harris should see an uptick in playing time with David Njoku (concussion, wrist) out for the foreseeable future. Njoku was concussed and fractured his wrist when he took a huge hit during Monday night's win over the New York Jets. Harris is expected to play starter's snaps in Njoku's place, […]

Jarvis Landry a Shaky Option in Week 3

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry is not off to a very impressive start this season. The veteran slot receiver has just seven catches for 99 yards on 14 targets through two games.

Nick Chubb a Solid RB1 Against Rams
