Daily Dawg Tags bring you all the Cleveland Browns news you need to know
At 4-1, the Cleveland Browns are starting to get some respect. Of course, the second they lose a game, the doubters will come back out, but during this four-game winning streak, they’ve been impressing everyone who is paying attention.
For that reason, they’re starting to see themselves climb up the various NFL Power Rankings. Normally hanging out near the 30s, Cleveland is now finding themselves as a top-10 team according to several outlets.
The story on their climb — and newfound respect — can be found in today’s Daily Dawg Tags.

Browns crack the top 10 in NFL power polls — Jeff Risdon, Browns Wire
"“Being 4-1 for the first time in 26 years has also elevated the Cleveland Browns to newfound heights in NFL power polls.For the first time since it started, the Touchdown Wire NFL power poll has included the Browns inside the top 10. There are the Browns at No. 9, up from last week’s No. 11 spot.”"
We all know the power rankings really mean nothing in the end as the one thing that matters is how a team finishes in the standings. Cleveland, right now, is 4-1 but they need to continue to reel off wins, and an AFC North victory over Pittsburgh this weekend would be huge for them going forward.
"“Quarterback Baker Mayfield was limited Wednesday with a chest injury after taking a shot to his ribs Sunday against Indianapolis. Still, Mayfield said he is “still confident” he’ll be able to play this weekend at Pittsburgh, noting earlier in the week that his “momma didn’t raise no wuss.” — Jake Trotter”"
As soon as the game against Indianapolis was over, Baker Mayfield started to say he would be fine. There’s no reason to think he won’t be lacing them up for this game.
"“Nobody likes having their season cut short,” Hunt said. “I know I didn’t. I’m almost positive I know Myles wasn’t either. That’s the thing about that. Myles is a great player, a great person and a great teammate. You just learn a lot going through situations like that. You just have to come ready, forget about all that stuff and do whatever you can. This one is for Myles. This one is for Cleveland Browns fans. This one is for a lot of things.”"
Myles Garrett is going to be front and center in this game whether he likes it or not. The good news is, players such as Kareem Hunt have no problem speaking up for him saying that the entire team has his back.
