Cleveland Browns vs. Seahawks: Can Browns get a bounce-back win?
By Randy Gurzi
The Cleveland Browns (2-3) take on the Seattle Seahawks (4-1) in Week 6 of the 2019 Season. Members of Dawg Pound Daily take turns predicting the score.
At 2-3, the Cleveland Browns find themselves trying to dig out of an early hole. On the opposite side of the field as them in Week 6, the Seattle Seahawks will be trying to prevent them from being able to do so.
Seattle, 4-1, has been playing at a high level all season, thanks in large part to Russell Wilson who is on the short-list for MVP candidates. Wilson’s ability to keep the offense rolling no matter who he has on the field with him is what makes him so dangerous. That doesn’t mean they’re impossible to beat though.
The Seahawks have flaws on each side of the ball. On offense, their ability to protect Wilson leaves a lot to be desired. He’s good enough to move in the pocket and take off running but the Browns do have a couple of defensive ends — Myles Garrett and Olivier Vernon — who can make it hard on him.
On defense, they’ve struggled to consistently generate pressure. This is confusing given the presence of Jadeveon Clowney and Ezekiel Ansah, but so far, they haven’t hit their stride with their new team. They also have some issues when it comes to defending the pass, although the Cleveland aerial attack hasn’t been too feared yet either.
