53. . L, 27-21 vs. Packers. Previous: . Cleveland Browns. 32. team

The Browns appear to be leaning towards a proverbial “cleaning of the house” after firing Executive Vice President of Football Operations, Sashi Brown, last week.

Who knows if this carries over to head coach Hue Jackson after 2017, but it’s surely a thought.

At any rate, this was the case in the second half versus the Green Bay Packers:

But we know Cleveland all too well. Green Bay answered back, tying things up, before a game-ending touchdown by Packers wide receiver Davante Adams in overtime.

Such is life for the Browns, although wide receiver Josh Gordon continues to be a good story. And quarterback DeShone Kizer played moderately well too.

Biggest Question

The Browns will be armed with two high first-round picks in the 2018 NFL Draft, which is nice. But how far will the gutting go? Is Jackson next on the list? Or will the front office put a stop to the coaching carousel and try to find an executive who works well with Jackson?
