5 Cleveland Browns whose stock are down after close call vs Bengals

5 Cleveland Browns whose stock are down after Week 7’s close call vs the Bengals.

There’s still plenty to celebrate after the Cleveland Browns came from behind to stave off the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 7.

Baker Mayfield set the franchise record for completions, while Myles Garrett also put his name in the record books by recording a sack in his sixth-straight game.

There was plenty of good to go around, as the Browns rebounded, on the road, against a team that looked hungry for a win.

But if Buzz Killington were here, he’d argue that the Browns are closer to playing at the Bengals level, than that of the Steelers or Steelers.

While that point may be debatable, the Bengals played like a contender because quarterback Joe Burrow continues to get better. The rookie played like a franchise quarterback against the Browns, as his shootout with Baker Mayfield reminded everyone of the old days, when Bernie Kosar vs Boomer Esiason was the hottest ticket in the old AFC Central.

While the Browns got the victory, and there’s plenty of celebrate, these five players, unfortunately, saw their stocks go down.
