Browns can't capitalize on opportunities in loss to Broncos - clevelandbrowns.com

DENVER, Colorado -- The Browns cleaned up the penalties and minimized the turnovers Sunday, but struggles inside the red zone and back-breaking big plays surrendered on defense sent Cleveland to its fourth straight loss.

Cleveland had chance after chance to put up points on Denver’s stingy defense, but it came up short more often than not. Inside the Broncos’ 30-yard line with less than 4 minutes to play, the Browns turned it over on downs one last time to fall, 24-19.

The Browns entered the red zone five times and came away with a touchdown just once. Austin Seibert’s four second-quarter field goals kept Cleveland within striking distance, but the Browns never could quite overcome the early deficit they found themselves in just a few minutes into the game.

The Browns fell to 2-6 with the loss while the Broncos gave quarterback Brandon Allen a win in his first start to move to 3-6.

Baker Mayfield had one of his better games of the season and made a number of nice connections with Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry to finish 27-of-42 for 273 yards. The Browns just needed a few more on this night, as Mayfield’s fourth-and-4 pass to Landry across the middle, with the game on the line, was batted away.

The game took a turn late in the third quarter, when a Mayfield sneak on fourth-and-1 from the Broncos’ 5 came up short. A challenge of the spot was unsuccessful, and the Broncos quickly capitalized.

Denver, leading 17-12 at the time, went 95 yards on seven plays, the last of which went the longest, as Phillip Lindsay ran 30 yards for the back-breaking touchdown with 4:10 remaining in the quarter.
