How will the Cleveland Browns finish the 2020 season?

Week 14 was tough for the Cleveland Browns as they lost a heartbreaker to the Baltimore Ravens. While it was hard to lose in the final seconds, they are still in good shape at 9-4 with three games left to play.

The first of those two games will be played in MetLife Stadium as they will go up against each New York team — starting with the Giants. That game will be on Sunday Night Football and has some added intrigue.

On Thursday, it was announced that offensive coordinator Jason Garrett tested positive for Covid-19, which means tight ends coach Freddie Kitchens will call plays for him. That means the Browns will be facing their former head coach as he steps in as OC.

We look ahead to that game now, as well as the final two, and predict how the Browns will finish their 2020 season.

Week 15 at New York Giants

Not only will the Browns be facing Freddie Kitchens, but they could also see Colt McCoy under center as the former Cleveland quarterback might have to start in place of an injured Daniel Jones. The Giants are within striking distance of the NFC East title despite a record of 5-8 and they were on a roll with four wins in a row before Arizona knocked them off in Week 14.

This game was flexed into prime time over the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers since both teams have a shot at the playoffs. Look for the Browns to make sure the Giants lose all hope of catching Washington as they make it look easy here.

Prediction:  Cleveland 36, New York 21
Record: 10-4
