Welcome to game week, Browns fans! How exciting is that to hear!
The Browns are opening on the road this year against the Jacksonville Jaguars, where Cleveland has won on its last two visits and five out of their last seven trips to that part of Florida, which could bode well for their prospects this weekend.
Cleveland is actually healthy as well, and has a roster that is currently set up nicely for the shiny new quarterback to come in the 2027 NFL Draft.
But we are getting far too ahead of ourselves
here, so let’s kick off the day with the latest edition of the Daily Dawg Chow.
