Browns vs. Redskins: Keys to the Game
1. Special teams continue to be a bugaboo for the Browns. Kicker Cody Parkey could face additional pressure this week after making 3-of-6 field goals in last week’s 30-24 overtime loss to the host Miami Dolphins after signing with the Browns following an injury to Patrick Murray. Parkey made field goals of 46, 48 and 38 yards, but missed from 41, 42 and 46. The 46-yarder would have won the game at the end of regulation. How he does or doesn’t bounce back could decide the outcome of this week’s game. Coverage and returns on punts and kickoffs need to improve too.
