Here is a summary of how the Cleveland Browns are viewed across mainstream media outlets in NFL Power Rankings heading into Week 13 of the 2023 NFL season.
all the injuries were just going to be too much to overcome. And with rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson (concussion) and star edge-rusher Myles Garrett (shoulder) and top wide receiver Amari Cooper (ribs) sidelined Sunday in Denver, it finally was.
Garrett’s injury has the potential to be an absolute crusher. But he told reporters after the game that he’s going to do everything in his power to get back on the field as soon as possible. “I’ve played through things that should have sidelined me before,” Garrett said. “I’m gonna continue to fight and gonna do what’s best for the team and for myself. We have high hopes for this season and what we’re gonna do. And nothing like this is gonna hold us back or me back.”
However, Davenport believes this could be the straw the broke the proverbial camel’s back. “What the Browns have accomplished without their starting quarterback (Deshaun Watson) and best offensive player (running back Nick Chubb) is impressive,” Davenport said. “But now the team’s best defensive player is also banged up, and the team could be looking at starting either P.J. Walker or Joe Flacco (no, really) this week against the Rams. Right now, a late-season tailspin is looking more likely than a playoff run—and that’s a very Cleveland outcome to what was not long ago a promising season.”

They could be without several key players Sunday against the Rams and may have to start recently signed QB Joe Flacco. Remember, this team had QB Josh Dobbs on the roster in August.
