On Sunday, the Cleveland Browns lost their 10th game of the season, and a big reason why is that the defense didn’t show up.
The Browns have one of the league’s best defenses this season, but they were uncharacteristically bad in Week 14. Facing off against an abysmal Tennessee Titans team, Cleveland allowed the Titans to rush for 184 yards, at 5.3 yards a carry.
Even with this disappointing game on the Browns' résumé, they are still allowing just 107.7 rushing yards per game, which is just outside the top 10 at No. 13. The hope is that Sunday was just an off day, and Cleveland will have an immediate opportunity to prove that it was.
