Week 8 of the NFL season did not go the way that the Cleveland Browns had planned but they’re still being respected.
Cleveland fell on the road to the Seattle Seahawks, 24-20, on a game-winning touchdown in the final minute. The Browns had the Seahawks on the ropes with P.J. Walker leading the offense.
Despite the loss, Cleveland remains at No. 13 in the latest NFL power rankings. There was not a lot of stock put into the tough road loss.
“Last week: loss at Seattle, 24–20
Next week: vs. Arizona
The Browns don’t have a ton of explosive offenses left on their schedule, which is why they may ultimately pass up the opportunity to improve at the quarterback position. But their margin for error is so incredibly small, and in games like this one (and the game last week against the Colts), it shows. Cleveland should realistically be 3–4 and is two horrific officiating calls away from being in the kind of public relations hell from which there is no returning.” – Conor Orr, Sports Illustrated
Next up for the Browns will be a date with the Arizona Cardinals at home. Week 9 will present the Browns an opportunity to get right at home, perhaps with Walker at quarterback for at least one more week. The Cardinals come in at just 1-7 on the season.
