Cleveland Browns vs. Buffalo Bills: How to watch, listen to today's game
The Cleveland Browns head east to face the Buffalo Bills still in search of their first win of the season. Here is how you can watch or listen to the game.
The Cleveland Browns are back at it today with just three games remaining for the team to pick up a win in the 2016 season.
The quest takes the Browns to Buffalo for a meeting with the Bills, losers of five of their past seven games.
The Bills come into the game with the NFL’s best rushing offense at 154.6 yards per game, are averaging a league-high 5.4 yards per carry and lead the league with 24 rushing touchdowns.
That could prove to be problematic for a Cleveland defense that is 31st against the run
Despite the reality of what the stats reveal, linebacker Christian Kirksey says things are getting better.
“Yeah, I think we took some strides. Obviously, we are not where we want to be,” Kirksey said on Friday. “We are just trying to clean things up, trying to eliminate players from having a big game or having 100-plus yards. Basically, we have to make sure we are in the right place at the right time in the right gaps.
“We just have to make sure we play as a defense and play together and swarm to the ball.”
Offensively, head coach Hue Jackson will stick with quarterback Robert Griffin III for another week, which should do wonders for an offense that has average 9.8 points per game over the past five games.
