Cleveland Browns: Grades from the disheartening loss to the Giants

The Cleveland Browns continued their losing ways on Sunday, falling 27-13 to the Giants. How did each major position group perform in the defeat?

Can the Cleveland Browns win a single game? It is a legitimate question, given the fact that the team has been competitive in almost every contest. Somehow, the team finds ways to lose every week. Literally, every week.

At 0-12, losers of 15 straight, the Browns have just four more opportunities. Two of these games come at home against teams with losing records.

So maybe there is hope. But before the Browns can move forward, they need to understand what went wrong in this week’s miserable performance.

With a bye week ahead, the team will have plenty of time to be encouraged by a strong defensive showing and be incredibly discouraged by their incompetence on offense.

Pinpointing the areas which contributed to this stagnation on offense is the first step to reversing the trend. This week’s grades are once again disappointing, but very revealing as to the root of the team’s issues.

As hard as it may be to analyze yet another loss during an 0-12 season, the purpose of this analysis is to do just that. Grades from this game are based on this week’s outings from each position group. No additional factors are taken into account.
