The Browns are now 8-3 and have secured a .500 or better record for the first time in 13 years with their win over the Jaguars.

The Cleveland Browns are bouncing back and in a big way in 2020. After years, nay decades, of insufferable play and hard to swallow records, the Browns are finally a good team. The Browns went to 8-3 on the season, defeating the Jacksonville Jaguars 27-25 on Sunday. The win comes at a time when the Browns are set to head off to Tennessee to face off with the Titans, who are coming off of a huge 45-26 drubbing of the Colts.

Now ideally, there’s a lot of minor nuances that go into these breakdowns, little things that sway the discourse one way or another. Unfortunately, I was unable to properly view the game. I was on the road all day and listened to the game on the radio, meaning that a lot of what I’d like to have seen for myself had to be given to me in the form of Jim Donovan and Doug Dieken.

So discourse over things like penalties and non-calls are going to be based on what was said during the broadcast and not as much on what I saw.

That said, it was quite the experience, driving from the border of Indiana and Ohio with the Browns game playing on AM 850 the entire way into the city. I didn’t know that ESPN Cleveland went out that far, but it did. Who needs satellite radio?

With all that being said, let’s hop into the four good things and four bad things from Sunday’s Week 12 win over the Jaguars.
