The Cleveland Browns are off to an 0-2 start after a 17-16 loss at home to the Cincinnati Bengals and a 41-17 blowout loss at Baltimore. The Browns have been turnover prone in the first 2 games, with 3 interceptions, a fumble, and a blocked punt. In addition, Cleveland missed an extra point and a 36 yard FG vs. the Bengals which cost them a win. QB Joe Flacco passed for 290 yards vs. Cincinnati with 2 INT's, while vs. Baltimore he had an INT and a fumble, both setting up short fields for the Ravens' offense. Punter Corey Bojorquez had a blocked punt which set up another short field for Baltimore.

The defense overall has played well, and has been bolstered by the play of rookies Mason Graham at DT and Carson Schwesinger at LB. Myles Garrett continues to be a game wrecker, while the secondary has had some good moments. The D held Baltimore to only 10 points in the 1st half, while Cincinnati had only 7 yards total in the 2nd half. RB Derrick Henry of the Ravens was held to 23 yards on 11 carries.

RB Quinshon Judkins of OSU made his rookie debut vs. Baltimore, while rookie TE Harold Fannin is off to a good start.

The Browns entertain the Green Bay Packers in Cleveland on Sunday 9/21, and if they can play a clean football game with no turnovers, they could pull an upset on GB. Another poor game by Flacco and there could be some discussion about playing rookie QB's Dillon Gabriel or Shadeur Sanders. Gabriel came in late against Baltimore and threw a TD pass.
