Veteran Melvin Gordon made a nice move on his red-zone receptions to find paydirt early in the second half, but that was his lone highlight. It wasn't an awful performance from Bridgewater, but it was not mistake-free and simply not enough to make up for a defense giving the Browns everything they wanted on the ground. He did, however, close out the game with 23 completions on 33 attempts for 187 yards, two touchdowns, two sacks and the interception. He threw an ugly interception to Browns safety John Johnson III and led the Denver offense to zero points through the first two quarters. Teddy Bridgewater started slow enough for some Broncos fans to call for backup Drew Lock entering the second half, but he bounced back enough to at least finish the game. Rookie Greg Newsome II led the defensive backs in yards allowed with 58 but also added a forced incompletion and was in phase on a lot of his targets. He allowed three receptions for 26 yards and a touchdown before being sidelined. Secondaryĭenzel Ward hurt his hamstring and was ruled out quickly following the injury. The other Browns linebackers combined for eight receptions allowed for 40 yards, two first downs and one touchdown. He also allowed just one reception for three yards in coverage. Mack Wilson only played 17 snaps but still made four tackles, including two defensive stops. He and Jadeveon Clowney both recorded six total pressures, but Garrett more than doubled Clowney's pass-rush win rate and earned a 90.0-plus PFF pass-rushing grade as a result. While the rest of the Browns' defensive line turned in relatively forgettable performances, Defensive Player of the Year favorite Myles Garrett was his usual dominant self. Veteran guard Wyatt Teller was easily the most impressive and should end up as the team's highest-graded offensive lineman on the night. Stepping in for the injured Jack Conklin, Blake Hance was the team's lowest-graded offensive lineman on PFF's first review of the broadcast film, allowing a team-high four total pressures. Offensive LineĪll five of the Browns' offensive linemen played the entire game (71 total snaps). Fullback Johnny Stanton caught the only passing touchdown from Keenum from one yard out on the goalline. OBJ caught his only contested target but dropped another. Five of Landry's seven targets were contested at the catch point, and he only came down with three of them. (6) led the team in targets despite battling injuries throughout the game, and the duo combined for seven receptions for 60 yards. Four of his 22 runs went for 10 yards or more, and he was held to zero or fewer yards on just one carry. He broke five tackles and gained 75 yards after contact while rushing for seven first downs as well. Filling in for the injured Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt, the former South Florida back rushed for 146 yards and one touchdown on his 22 carries (6.6 yards per carry). He should finish PFF's reviews with a 65.0-plus PFF passing grade. On PFF's first review of the game, he had zero big-time throws and one turnover-worthy play. He completed 21-of-33 passes for 199 yards, 12 first downs, one touchdown and took a sack. He kept the offense on schedule, limited mistakes and hit multiple throws past the sticks on key third downs. Keenum wasn't spectacular, but he didn't have to be.
