The Cleveland Browns are on the road this week to take on the New York Jets, hoping to improve their record to 4-1. The Jets are hoping to improve on their 1-3 start to the season. While the Browns currently have the better record, winning on the road is always going to be a challenge. There will be a few matchups that will likely determine the direction this game takes.
Injuries have already changed some of the matchup
s in Week 5.Quinshon Judkins should have an opportunity to exploit a struggling
Jets run defense. A productive game from Judkins should open up the passing game and give Deshaun Watson an opportunity to make explosive plays.
Watson will need to limit mistakes in this matchup. New York has some strong talent in its secondary and will have an opportunity to make big plays if it can capitalize on any mistakes Watson makes in the passing game.
Limiting Garrett Wilson will be a major key for the Cleveland defense. He excels at creating separation and has the ability to turn plays into big gains. Denzel Ward will likely be up for the job and will hope to stop him from taking over this game.
