With inactive player reports filtering in, the picture is clearing on the matchups the Seahawks will face when they visit Cleveland today.

Joe Haden will be active for the game, which comes as a bit of a surprise following injury reports this week. He'll be a huge part of their pass defense today.

The Browns have fared well on paper versus opposing passing attacks, but I believe that success is over-stated. Teams haven't had to try to throw against them, witnessed with the Oakland Raiders building a big early lead last week.

The Browns have also faced some teams that struggle throwing the ball. The winless Indianapolis Colts and Miami Dolphins are to examples, as are the Raiders being without Jason Campbell following his injury last week.

Without Haden the Seahawks could have certainly exposed the Browns weaknesses. It will be harder with Haden playing.

Payton Hillis will be inactive, handing the ball over to Montario Hardesty. This isn't that big of a loss for the Browns, though, as neither player figured to put up much yardage on a Seahawks defense that is ranked first in yards per attempt.

As expected, Tarvaris Jackson will not be playing today. Another big loss is center Max Unger not being able to play center today. The Seahawks have had nothing but inconsistency in their starting offensive line. This will be their 18th different starting formation in their last 24 games.
