What is the Browns record in this three game span with Walker and a limited RB room?
Even with Watson and Chubb, what is the Browns record on these three games?
They would maybe be even at Seattle, would be favored vs Arizona, and would be an underdog in Baltimore.
Best case, 2-1. Doubtful they win all three.
What is their record in this three game span with PJ Walker and a hobbled Kareem Hunt and whoever else is getting carries?
Probably 1-2. They are only a 3.5 pt underdog in Seattle, they should still beat Arizona (probably favored by 7 pts even with this lineup) and probably lose at Baltimore.
This is why the Browns will not make a move for RB or QB. There is really like maybe a game to pick up at best and that is very debatable. Even if they got a QB now they are not playing vs Seattle. So it really is a backup QB for two games, one the Browns should win and one they will probably lose and a new QB really does not change this at all in my view.
The rest of the season starts AFTER the Baltimore game, based on the Watson timetable that he needs to be 100%…
Season starts Week 11 vs Pittsburgh
The Browns with Watson back and Ford/Hunt healthy starting Week 11 are probably favored in every game the rest of the year.
Let’s see what happens, but this is my take.
Beat seattle, lose the others.
