After opening the season a disappointing 0-2, the upstart Browns have won their last six thanks to their powerhouse offense. The Browns rank 4th in rush yards and 1st in total yards per game. LaRod Stephens-Howling is on pace for 1000 yard season but it's a very balanced rushing attack. Even with prolific wide receiver Josh Gordon missing 4 games, Brandon Weeden is still on pace for over 4000 yards while Davone Bess leads all receivers and is on pace for 1300 yards receiving for this group that is 8th in scoring offense..
Not to be outdone, the defense ranks 6th in points and 5th in total yards. Jabaal Sheard is healthy and is chasing the NFL sack lead with 7 sacks while Joe Haden with 5 picks and Leon McFadden with 4 are amongst the leagues best cornerback pairings.
The Browns currently hold the league in the AFC North but Pittsburgh and Baltimore are only a game back at 5-3 while the Bengals are at 4-3-1.
