The Cleveland Browns will face the Buffalo Bills in a week 11 matchup. Initially, this game was supposed to be a home game for the Bills. The NFL was forced to move this game because of a massive snowstorm in Buffalo. League officials moved the game to Detroit to be played at ford field. This game was explicitly moved for fans’ safety. Early Thursday a travel ban was put into place for Buffalo. Initially, there was worry that if the Bills would be able to get out of Buffalo in time for the game. The Bills in fact did get out in time and the game will played Sunday.
Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills are one of the best teams in the NFL this season. Many pundits have the Bills as the favorites to get to the Super Bowl if not win it all this season. Led by pro-bowl quarterback Josh Allen he has really blossomed into a top-ten quarterback in this league. However, coming into this game the Bills have lost two straight games. Many would expect that this game against the Cleveland Browns could be a get-right game for them. With the Browns coming in at 3-6 many cannot imagine why the Bills shouldn’t win.
Browns Offense
The Cleveland Browns offense has been the real surprise of the season. Head Coach Kevin Stefanski has put together a top-ten offense led by the running game. Although they have achieved good standings during the season, they struggled mightily against the Dolphins. Only scoring 17 points in the lopsided loss this offense needs to get back on track. The offensive line was out of sorts and will look to get back to playing as one. Playing the Bills this week the run game will be a major part of the game plan. So the Browns must play keep away, run the ball, and bleed the clock to keep Josh Allen on the sideline. The good news for the offense is that Wyatt Teller and David Njoku both will return Sunday against the Bills.
Browns Defense
The Browns defense looked out of sorts this last game against the Dolphins. At this point in the season, the Browns defense isn’t a top-level group and isn’t consistent. Although there is an abundance of talent on this side of the ball they have not put it all together each week. This week the defensive effort must be there for all eleven guys. The defense needs to show some effort otherwise this game can get out of hand quickly in favor of Buffalo. Above all tackling, Josh Allen will be a must. Joe Woods and the entire defense must be prepared or it will be two weeks in a row of a lopsided loss.
Conclusion
Overall for this game, the Browns must be prepared and show up Sunday. There have been a lot of outside factors with the game being moved and talk of playoff hopes. As well as playing the scheduled game and creating certain scenarios of when Deshaun Watson comes back. They must be focused on one game at a time. The Cleveland Browns need o be focused on the Buffalo Bills or this will be an ugly game for Cleveland. Buffalo is looking to regroup following two straight losses. Buffalo is an elite team with Super Bowl aspirations so the Browns should take notes. If the Cleveland Browns would like to stay afloat in the playoffs and division title race they must find a way to win this game. The last time the NFL moved a Bills game it was against the Colts and Jacoby Brissett was the starting quarterback.
