It wasn’t all bad for the Cleveland Browns in their loss to the LA Rams, as these five players saw their stocks rise in defeat.

Fans of the Cleveland Browns are starting to fear the worst. Their team is 1-2, having dropped both of their home games in front of the Dawg Pound.

I’m not here to say don’t have any trepidation about the future, because there is, without a doubt, problems with Cleveland’s offense.

That said, the Browns are only a game behind the Ravens, who lost to the Chiefs in Week. The Browns get Baltimore on Sunday, and if they can pull out a win against the best team in the division, well, Baker Mayfield and the gang will be right on track.

Cleveland has a brutal part of the schedule coming up in the next few weeks. After Baltimore, the 49ers, Seahawks and Patriots are next.

Even if the Browns go 2-2 in this stretch, meaning their overall record is 3-4, they should still be right with their set to challenge Baltimore. Because after the contest against the Patriots, the schedule gets soft.

The Broncos, Bills, Steelers, Dolphins, Steelers, Bengals and Cardinals are all up next until the Browns meet the Ravens again at home in Week 16. Every single one of those is winnable.

Plus, the Browns will soon welcome back Antonio Callaway from suspension, and Kareem Hunt, too, is another week closer to being eligible.

So while the loss hurts, especially since the Browns were on Sunday Night Football for the first time in 11 years, it wasn’t all bad.

The Browns took the defending NFC champs down to the final play of the game as these five players saw their stocks rise the most during Cleveland’s 20-13 defeat.
