Cleveland Browns: Game-by-predictions for remainder of 2019 season
By Leon West
Home vs. Cincinnati Bengals (0-6)
Preview: The Browns will be eager to bounce back after a loss and will need to win a crucial divisional matchup. The Bengals could have A.J. Green back from an ankle ailment that has kept him out through the first six weeks, but outside of that, the Bengals will be looking forward to a high pick in the 2020 NFL draft.

Away vs. Arizona Cardinals (2-3-1)
Preview: Kyler Murray and Kliff Kingsbury have been exciting to watch if nothing else. They started out slow but seem to have found a groove. Albeit against teams with a combined one win on the season. You can only play who’s in front of you, and this is the NFL: a win is a win.
Mayfield will be facing off against his former teammate that shares the honor of being a Heisman Trophy winner. The two former Oklahoma quarterbacks will be excited to face one another for the first time. The excitement of this matchup will be high league-wide. Arizona’s offense loves to play fast. They will score some points, but not enough to beat Mayfield and the Browns. Expect a shootout.
Score: Browns 38, Cardinals 31
Record: 8-6
