27. CLEVELAND BROWNS (2-6)

Last week: 25
Change: -2

It was another case of what might’ve been for the Browns. Up 20-7, the Cardinals hit back with 27 unanswered points to take down the Cleveland Browns. A promising opening two quarters was wiped out, as the offense couldn’t string anything together.

When Josh McCown is the team’s leading rusher with 18 yards, you know something has gone wrong. Isaiah Crowell rushed 10 times for 14 yards, and rookie Duke Johnson continued to do nothing on the ground. His biggest contribution came in the air with his two receptions for 68 yards.

Cleveland is in a run of tough games, and next up is a road trip to the undefeated Cincinnati Bengals. Someone give these Browns a break.

Next: No. 26
