The Cleveland Browns are not backing down from the undefeated San Francisco 49ers. Despite an opening drive where the Niners drove down the field, the Jim Schwartz-led defense buckled in the second drive, forcing them into a long field goal chance that was missed. And on that drive, Myles Garrett tossed aside All-Pro offensive tackle Trent Williams on his way to sniffing out a screen pass.
Linebackers Anthony Walker Jr. and Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah then met running back Christian McCaffrey deep in the backfield for a massive loss. The game still sits 7-0 in favor of the Niners after both teams missed a kick, but the Browns are not afraid of these NFC juggernauts.
Still in the first quarter of a game where the weather is anything but perfect, the Browns have to capitalize on scoring opportunities. However, the defense (that came into the game as the league’s best) continues to do their part.
anyone else notice Myles toss a 6-5, 320 lb All-Pro? 😳#SFvsCLE on FOX & NFL+ pic.twitter.com/UaTwch0QhH
