Browns stumble late, watch chance at 1st win slip through their fingers

CLEVELAND — The Browns lamented another loss in which they stumbled late in a game they could have won in a winless season where such unfortunate series of events have become commonplace.

Before Sunday’s overtime loss to the Packers was complete, they watched their largest lead of the year evaporate in the fourth quarter and came up short in the game’s most critical junctures.

On a cold afternoon on the shores of Lake Erie, Cleveland dominated Green Bay in stretches but couldn’t deliver when it mattered.

“I thought that was the best version of us as a football team – offensively, defensively and special teams – up until the fourth quarter when we need it the most,” Browns coach Hue Jackson said in his postgame news conference.
