Quinshon Judkins could go crazy against Panthers, if this is any indication
After two games, the Cleveland Browns have the 31st ranked rushing offense in the NFL, averaging 65.5 yards and 2.91 yards per carry. It’s not been a case of Cleveland abandoning the run game either. On top of that, much of those rushing yards have actually come from QB Deshaun Watson. He leads the team […]
Browns Week 3: Panthers lose RB, plan to work out veteran on Wednesday
The Cleveland Browns begin their practice week for the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday. GM Andrew Berry has already made two additions to the roster who were recently with the team’s Week 3 opponent: WR Jimmy Horn Jr. and LB Krys Barnes. As Browns fans begin to believe, at least a little bit, that their team […]
Cleveland Browns news: Roster adds a Panther, power rankings, Jaxson Dart injury and more
We doubled up Victory Monday by adding a Victory Tuesday, but now it’s time to turn the page and prepare for Week 3 versus the Carolina Panthers, with a “Rock & Roll” Thursday Night Football coming up right behind that. The Browns are looking to build on their Week 2 win in their home opener, […]
Who wins the Panthers vs. Browns game this week? Let us know: Browns Reacts Survey
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Browns fans and fans across the country. We’re feeling a whole lot better this week, aren’t we, Browns fans? Cleveland defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this past Sunday, and QB Deshaun Watson played […]
Browns Todd Monken gets his first win as NFL head coach: 2 takeaways on CLE’s new HC
The Cleveland Browns’ 23-19 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers gave Todd Monken his first win as an NFL head coach. While the game was far from perfect, this win was important for the overall team morale. There was also plenty to learn about Monken from a coaching standpoint following the win, including how he […]
Browns sign former Panthers defender to practice squad, as one member goes on injured list
The Cleveland Browns announced that they have placed LB Nathaniel Watson on the practice squad/injured list with a knee injury. A sixth-round pick in 2024, Watson was on injured reserve all of last season. Although he did not make the team this year, he was on the practice squad and had been elevated to the […]
Week 3 Browns NFL Power Rankings: All it took was a win to, and now look at Cleveland
It is Week 3 of the 2026 NFL season, and the Cleveland Browns are officially back in the category of respectability. Some rankings had them rise just a few spots, but a couple of sites had them make a significant jump, with one of them even putting the Browns ahead of the Steelers. Overall, the […]
Browns O-line is much better in one area than the other; still learning to dance
The exciting win in Week 2 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers did not come without some concerns for the Cleveland Browns. The run game continues to struggle two weeks in, and the defense was bailed out by quite a few overthrows by QB Baker Mayfield. That doesn’t mean there isn’t a lot to celebrate, including […]
Cleveland Browns news: Victory Tuesday, more Week 2 analysis, snap counts and grades, more
Why limit it to just Victory Monday? Declaring Victory Tuesday! here at Dawgs By Nature, following the Cleveland Browns Week 2 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Monday was a fun day of seeing plays broken down, celebrating good PFF grades, and a little looking ahead to what could be for the Browns now that […]
Lessons from Week 2: Deshaun Watson, Baker Mayfield, Week 1 Browns, defense in our 4 Downs
Raise your hand if you had the Cleveland Browns going on the road upsetting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. No one? Okay, well, not no one, but very few. Raise your hand if you had quarterback Deshaun Watson outplaying Baker Mayfield. Okay, no more questions. Despite a lengthy rain delay late in the 4th quarter, the […]
Did Cleveland play more man coverage this week? Browns defensive snap counts
The Cleveland Browns’ defense played much better this week. It still was far from perfect, but I saw what I believed to be more man coverage, more blitzes, and obviously more times getting home to the quarterback. Now, I’d also say that Tampa Bay executed far less efficiently than Jacksonville did, but that happens in […]
Jerry Jeudy, Denzel Boston’s reps signal a chance: Browns offensive snap counts
The Cleveland Browns’ offense struggled in the first half, but not due to quarterback play. They shot themselves in the foot with procedural errors or penalties. Late in the second half, they were only 1-of-9 on third downs, consistently being in long third down situations. But on the final drive, with a bunch of manageable […]
AFC North Week 2: Is anyone actually really good? Bengals undefeated, but with holes
Playing QB Baker Mayfield has paid off twice for teams in the AFC North, with the Cleveland Browns taking the victory in Week 2 as their former quarterback threw an interception and overthrew a number of receivers throughout the game. The Cincinnati Bengals knocked off Mayfield in Week 1, forcing four turnovers, including three fumbles […]
Browns NFL playoff standings: Why not after Week 2’s win?
Last week, after the Cleveland Browns’ disastrous start to the season against the Jacksonville Jaguars, we took a look at where the team stood when it came to the 2027 NFL draft order. Even if the Browns go 16-1 this season, the NFL draft is always important to teams, especially when Cleveland owns the Los […]
Browns Week 2 win: Building blocks moving forward
The Cleveland Browns Week 1 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars was extremely disappointing for the players and fans alike. There weren’t many positive moments to build on, making it difficult to find much hope for the season. After the Browns’ Week 2 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, some of that hope and optimism have […]
Cleveland Browns news: Victory Monday!, record delay, winners and losers, and more
Listen, there is nothing like winning in the NFL. As Cleveland Browns HC Todd Monken said in the locker room after the game (not what he said at the podium that is getting a lot of replays), there is nothing like the locker room after a win in the NFL. Congrats to Monken on getting […]
How Mike Tomlin motivated the Browns to turn things around against the Bucs
Mike Tomlin left the Pittsburgh Steelers after 19 seasons as their head coach, and joined the Football Night in America crew on NBC as analyst. Cleveland Browns fans are used to a boatload of battles against him, but how did he play a factor in the Cleveland Browns’ 23-19 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers? […]
Browns vs Bucs Week 2: Lot of winners, a few losers as CLE pulls upset over Baker Mayfield
Our beloved Barry Shuck will not be able to complete his weekly Brownies and Frownies for Weeks 2 and 3 of the Cleveland Browns 2026 season. That means you are stuck with Jared for Week 2’s game versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Can the Browns perform better in Week 2 after getting destroyed in Week […]
Cleveland Browns vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers recap: Deshaun Watson delivers in second half win, after long weather delay
The Cleveland Browns gave a much better effort than the opening week. Instead of being down 24-0 early in the second quarter, they were only losing 9-6 at halftime to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The offense still couldn’t get into a rhythm at first, but the defense showed some more life to keep them in […]
Browns vs Bucs set the NFL’s weather delay record, game restarts after 2 plus hour delay
To the surprise of many, the Cleveland Browns led the Tampa Bay Buccaneers going into the final two minutes of Week 2’s matchup. The home team Bucs struggled to convert drives into touchdowns, settling for four field goals and just one touchdown despite controlling the game on the ground, with 125 rushing yards to the […]
Former Browns tight end carted off with injury
There are some players’ journeys who will still like to follow after they depart the Cleveland Browns, but continue with their NFL career. Examples include RB Nick Chubb and DE Myles Garrett, both of whom didn’t have the best of luck after departing (Chubb is now retired, while Garrett is on injured reserve). And now, […]
Browns, Bucs inactives: Will Tyson Campbell play?
The Cleveland Browns announced their inactives for today’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The biggest question mark is whether cornerback Tyson Campbell, who was battling an ankle injury, would play or not. Campbell is active, so he should be good-to-go. Here are the Browns’ inactives for Week 2: CB Noah Igbinoghene was added to […]
Cleveland Browns vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers Week 2 discussion
The Baker Mayfield revenge game? Or does Deshaun Watson make a statement (contains laughter). The Cleveland Browns square off against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for Week 2, and although Browns fans would love to turn the tide and see a win, I think we’ll have a unique feeling this week of still hating our own […]
Sunday Browns rumor: Shedeur Sanders’ time? Deshaun Watson’s final game?
For Cleveland Browns fans, QB Deshaun Watson’s resume was full and faulty long before HC Todd Monken came in and gave everyone a clean slate. Almost no one was happy when Monken named Watson the Browns Week 1 starter, but the head coach has time and time again reinforced that he believes that decision is […]
Cleveland Browns news: New CB injury, Johnny Manziel’s epiphany, Baker Mayfield’s peace
For all the expected pomp and circumstance of Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield facing his old team, the Cleveland Browns, Week 2 of the NFL season just lacks much pop. Most of that is because the Browns looked very bad in Week 1. Some of that, as shared in today’s news, is that Mayfield […]
