Preview: Browns At Broncos
Sunday, January 17, 1:00 P.M.
Invesco Field
(11-5) @ (11-5)
The 4th seeded Cleveland Browns will travel to Colorado to play 2nd seed Denver Broncos. These teams met in Week Two with Denver edging out Cleveland by a score of 23-20.
Offensive Rookie of Year winner Knowshon Moreno had a big game with 114 yards and a touchdown. Quarterback Kyle Orton played well also.
However, this is a different Cleveland team now. They are balanced and their defense is dominant. This game should play out very interestingly.
Watch out for what could be an instant-classic.
Early Prediction: Browns win 28-24

Worst Loss Of Season Comes At Worst Time
Cleveland had six turnovers in Sunday's blowout loss.
-----------
They say turnovers are the difference between losing and winning. Well, in this game that statement was certainly true as Cleveland turns the ball over six times in a 45-7 blowout loss to the Denver Broncos.
Cleveland struggled offensively all game, mustering only 180 yards. They couldn't get any semblence of a running game going and their pass offense was dreadful. Just as dreadful was their pass blocking, which gave up a season high six sacks.
Despite the 45 points, Cleveland's defense didn't play too bad. They forced two turnovers and had seven sacks. Also, most of Denver's points came off of turnovers by the offense. Still, the lack of a run defense cost them the game just as much.
Cleveland will need to rebound from this tough loss next year.
