Predicting the Cleveland Browns Week 3 matchup with Rams

The Cleveland Browns host the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday Night Football. Several members of the DPD crew predict the outcome in the prime time game.

Things are different this season for the Cleveland Browns, which is evident by them preparing for their second-straight prime time game in a row. For those keeping track at home, that’s two games in the bright lights in just three weeks of the season — something completely unheard of before John Dorsey took over as general manager in December of 2017.

Cleveland is heading into this Sunday Night Football meeting with the Los Angeles Rams with a record of 1-1, with two vastly different games under their belt thus far. In Week 1, the Browns played an ugly game at home against the Tennessee Titans.

In that one, they simply couldn’t block for Baker Mayfield and there were 18 penalties in the game that gave Tennessee 182 free yards. Eventually, the dam broke and a close game turned into a nasty blowout.

Week 2 was much different as they controlled things from the start on Monday Night Football against the New York Jets. Of course, New York started the game with Trevor Siemian — who was in place of Sam Darnold — and had to turn to Luke Falk when Myles Garrett injured Siemian. Still, they took care of business and did what good teams are supposed to do — they made it look easy against a bad team.

So which Browns team will show up on Sunday night and who will win the game? That’s exactly the answer we look to give you here as several members of Dawg Pound Daily will give their take on how the game may play out.
