The Browns need Bellichek to coach them, run the ball 100 times and manage Mayfield like Mac Jones.

3rd and manageable and they drop back to pass. Just horrible play calling when Chubb is averaging 7 yds a carry. Basically 4 down territory if they keep it reasonable. A sack was the only thing they couldn't afford to have.

yeah, Chubb and D'Ernest have a combined 110 yards on 13 carries already. No need to force the pass at all, and even less so when it's Baker having a bad day. Just run, run, run.

As poor as the Browns have been they are still in position to steal this if they can just have one decent quarter.

Lol. Browns in FG range to make it a one score game and give up back to back sacks. Some teams just cant get out of their own way.

This would be a fairly humiliating loss for the Packers. Browns have been completely inept today, but still might win.

And somehow despite a hilariously bad first 53 minutes the Browns are now slight WP favorites.

Lol. Baker misses a wide open Njoku that would've put them in FG range. And then Throws that pick. Yikes. Browns fans might turn on him hard after this one.

Why didn't the Browns challenge that contact??

Baker holding back the Browns - refs have missed three calls too.

Yup. the refs are too incompetent for teams not to be able to challenge for pass interference.

Still the Browns have no one to blame but themselves for not running the ball with 1 min left and 3 time outs.

blatant non-call on that INT. It's a damn shame that the refs are in the middle of things every single week.

Baker was on fire today! I can't see him being a starter once Cleveland is done with him.

Ugly win but counts all the same.

the 1 seed looks far more likely now than not. Gonna need it just to get some healthy bodies back especially in the middle of the D.

Admittedly I'm a little out of touch on what can be challenged in the NFL. But on that missed hold/PI was that not a challengeable play?

Can't challenge fouls in the NFL. PI was challengsble for a few years then they took it out.
