With a tough stretch of matchups looming in Weeks Eight and Nine against the Steelers and Chiefs, the Cleveland Browns seek a much needed road win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.
In some ways this game could be considered a must win for Cleveland. For starters, another loss would give head coach Hue Jackson 35 Ls in his three seasons at the helm and add a can of gasoline to the already massive fire keeping his seat scorching hot. Any hope the Browns have of making the playoffs would all but disappear as well. Unfortunately, they’ll go to battle with the Buccaneers significantly undermanned, particularly in the secondary and at wide receiver.
