game against the Cincinnati Bengals:Cleveland BrownsPositionPlayerInjuryWedThuFriGame StatusPositionPlayerInjuryWedThuFriGame StatusCincinnati BengalsPositionPlayerInjuryWedThuFriGame StatusPositionPlayerInjuryWedThuFriGame StatusInjury NotesThe Browns are pretty healthy this week. The team continues to give C JC Tretter all the rest he needs for his sore ankle https://www.brownsfanshop.com/Ricardo-Louis-Jersey , but he was a limited participant on Friday, meaning he’ll likely start on Sunday again. The other player listed as questionable was TE David Njoku (knee), but he practiced in full on Friday, which is typically a green light for Sunday.With the Bengals, all eyes are were on the status of WR A.J. Green. Their offense is ten times better when he plays, but he has missed the last two games with a toe injury. He did not practice this week. Head coach Marvin Lewis said that he would try to see how he feels during a Saturday practice; after that practice David Njoku Jersey , his game status was downgraded from questionable to doubtful. WR Josh Malone is out with a hamstring injury for the Bengals.The other players listed originally listed as questionable were CB Dre Kirkpatrick (shoulder) and OT Cordy Glenn (back). Kirkpatrick didn’t practice all week and Glenn didn’t really either, so their statuses are up-in-the-air. Kirkpatrick was downgraded to doubtful on Saturday. The Cleveland Browns had the biggest turnaround in franchise history in 2018 as the team posted seven wins after totaling just one victory in the previous two seasons combined. The Browns will likely not experience another seven-win improvement this fall, but what is a realistic expectation for the team in 2019?ESPN’s Bill Barnwell took a shot this week at estimating an over/under on the number of wins for the Browns, and landed on 7.5:Barnwell hits on a few valid points, most notably when it comes to the team’s turnover margin, which is unpredictable from season to season. (Although the Browns can work to cut down on the number of turnovers they make Larry Ogunjobi Color Rush Jersey , which would balance out a reduction in the turnovers they force.There are a few things, however, that Barnwell may be overlooking or underselling when it comes to the team. The first is there is no way to underestimate the impact of Hue Jackson, the worst head coach in NFL history, no longer running the team. Getting rid of Jackson easily adds two or three wins to the victory column.The Browns will also have quarterback Baker Mayfield for the entire season, and it is not unreasonable to expect him to improve in his second season.And while the schedule may appear to be more difficult http://www.brownsfanshop.com/Austin-Seibert-Jersey , consider that:Even if they had faced quarterback Andy Dalton for two games, the Browns were clearly better than the Cincinnati Bengals and the two teams are moving in opposite directions.The Browns were one final drive away from sweeping the Baltimore Ravens.Cleveland was a blocked field goal away from splitting the season series with the Pittsburgh Steelers.The Browns face the AFC East this fall, but outside of the New England Patriots, which teams in that division should the Browns fear?Cleveland also faces the NFC West, but get that division’s two best teams - the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks - at home. The Arizona Cardinals are a complete mess, and while people are giving the San Francisco 49ers a pass for 2018 because they lost quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo to injury Sheldrick Redwine Jersey , the 49ers are as unproven as the Browns.The regular season is still almost eight months away, but barring a major injury to a key player or two, it is hard to see the Browns approaching double-digits in wins this fall.
