Cleveland Browns mos worrisome stretch — Game No. 3: Buffalo Bills

I know the Bills lost in one of the greatest playoff games ever last year to the Chiefs, but I’m not sure that they aren’t the best team in the NFL heading into 2022. Not only do they have Josh Allen who has one of the strongest arms in the NFL, but they also have a tremendous defense that makes it hard to score points.

It’s bad enough they have to play the Bills this year, but they also have to make the short trip to Buffalo where fans are guaranteed to make it a very difficult environment. This is one of the few games in 2022 that I’ll struggle to convince myself the Browns have a chance to win.

I know, I’m the pessimist that everyone hates.

Let’s not forget, that this late November game could come with some terrible weather. Cold and rain, or even cold and snow mixed with wind is always a possibility in Buffalo. And while we are all extremely excited to have Deshaun Watson as the starting quarterback, the guy has never consistently played in the cold.

It sounds like a silly thing to pick on a guy for, but I’ll need to see some production before I believe he is built to stand the cold. With a game this tough, let’s just hope the Browns can figure out a way to beat the Bengals and/or Dolphins in prior weeks.
