2016 NFL Power Rankings Week 5: Los Angeles Rams Make Statement With 3-1 Record

32. Cleveland Browns 0-4 (32)

Another week, another game in which the Cleveland Browns could have easily ended up on the winning end, only to end up ruining their chances to remain winless on the season.

This time, it was the Washington Redskins that defeated the Browns after their 31-20 win on Sunday. Cleveland seemed to be carrying plenty of momentum with a three-point lead at the start of the fourth quarter, but it was the defense that fell apart after allowing Washington to score 14 unanswered points.

As frustrating as this loss may be for the Browns, the team has to be pleased with the way Cody Kessler looked in his second start. The rookie out of USC completed 28 of 40 passes for 223 yards with a touchdown, but it’s his comfort running the offense that sticks out the most.

He still has a long way to go, but here’s to hoping Kessler the long-awaited answer for Cleveland at quarterback since nobody else seems to work out. Robert Griffin III may have been the preference at the start of the season, but this unexpected time as a rookie will be a nice audition for Kessler over the next few weeks.

On another note, it’s good to see the Browns have another bright spot on offense in Terrelle Pryor as the dual threat continues to give it his all after another five-catch, 46 yard performance with a touchdown against the Redskins.
