The 1-1 Cleveland Browns return house to host the 0-2 New York Giants this Sunday afternoon within the early window of video games. It is a good time for the Browns to attract this match-up, because the Giants have been a whole mess this season. If it weren’t for the even worse Carolina Panthers, the Giants would simply be the worst staff within the league.
That being stated, groups play the video games for a cause so this isn’t a assured victory for the Browns even when they’re the higher staff. The Giants confirmed some spunk towards the Washington Commanders final week however have been edged out by a last-second discipline purpose. The Browns protection ought to have the ability to make Daniel Jones appear to be… properly, Daniel Jones, however nothing is assured within the NFL.
If the Browns can maintain enterprise right here, they will be above .500 and that is completely a constructive after how depressing they regarded in Week 1. They’ll additionally proceed to realize video games on the Bengals and Ravens, each of whom have began 0-2.
This match-up is not precisely one which individuals who aren’t a fan of this staff are going to flock to. It is between a Browns staff that is been fairly underwhelming and a completely atrocious Giants staff. That being stated, I feel it is secure to say that Tom Brady will not be on the decision for this week’s Browns recreation even with the sport being on FOX.
The Browns are taking part in on FOX this week and have the crew of Kenny Albert, Jonathan Vilma, and Megan Olivi calling their Week 3 recreation. Albert has expertise in all 4 of the key American sports activities and is the one broadcaster who at the moment gives play-by-play in each league.
Vilma performed within the NFL for over a decade, spending 4 years with the Jets and 6 years with the Saints, the place he received a Tremendous Bowl within the 2009 season. He joined FOX as a shade commentator in 2020 after spending time with ABC and ESPN.
Olivi joined FOX in 2021 and is most recognized for her work within the UFC world.

Wrolstad made his discipline choose debut within the NFL in 2003 and was promoted to go referee in 2014. He officiated one Browns recreation final 12 months, which was additionally in Week 3 once they took down the Titans. He additionally referred to as a late-season recreation between the Giants and the Eagles, which New York shockingly received, so each groups have been 1-0 in video games that Wrolstad officiated in.
