Denver Broncos (3-3) vs Cleveland Browns (3-3), Thursday at 8:20 P.M. ET

The Cleveland Browns lost a tough game as they got beaten up at home. The Arizona Cardinals came to town and dismantled the Browns. It wasn’t much of a contest throughout the entire game. Arizona won the match and continued its undefeated record in 2021.

The Browns have more issues from this past weekend’s loss other than the outcome. They also sustained multiple injuries during the play period. A wide array of starters went down and it is unknown who will be available to play come Thursday.

Baker Mayfield will start but they could be without other players across their roster. That will be an issue on a short week against a struggling Denver team. This game is in Cleveland so that is another positive for the home club.

Cleveland should be able to win this game and get back on track even though they have a pile of injuries. It might be a struggle at certain points in this game before they can secure the victory. They need to overcome adversity and head into the following week with a winning record or this season might start to slip from them.

They play the Steelers coming up the following week and that is going to be another huge game. It is still early in this season to call this a must-win but it’s as close as you can get. Losing this game would be a major knock to the Brown’s year.
