Cleveland Browns vs Tennessee Titans NFL Week 7 Live Updates, Highlights and Analysis

Asking for a friend.

Titans are on the move again after a 17-yard strike to Carnell Tate to close out quarter No. 1.

The Titans are on pace for 500 yards of offense.

The Titans.

The rookie has been targeted twice.

The first was an interception where Boston appeared to run the wrong route.

The second was a third-down drop that forced a punt.

A big tackle for loss by Sam Williams on second down forces a three-and-out.

A personal (ugh) foul by Cleveland on the return backs the Browns up, but at least the Browns showed some signs of life on defense.

Quinshon Judkins follows up his best run of the year (easily) with a five-yard score.

Six plays, 73 yards, Browns on the board.

The refs were going to tack on an extra 15 for unneccesary roughness, but we can't have anything nice.

Still, Browns on the move.

Well, things have gone about as bad as they possibly can.

Tony Pollard's second touchdown in six and a half minutes puts the Titans up 14.

Cleveland's first quarter point differential is now -52.

That is not a typo.

Penalties and Turnovers will kill NFL teams. Every. Single. Time.

So of course Cleveland did both on their first drive.

I just...

I can't...

Tony Pollard has five carries for 60 yards--on the first series of the game.

You're football players, not matadors.

Ole!

Outside defensive tackle Mike Hall, the Browns are relatively healthy in Week 7, although cornerback Denzel Ward is playing through a finger injury suffered in practice this week.

Last year, a one-win Titans team came into Cleveland and beat the Browns thanks to a career-high 161 rushing yards from veteran back Tony Pollard.

If Pollard tops 150 rushing yards again, I'm going to need a new computer.

Just saying.

Here are the keys to a Cleveland win Sunday.

Run the Danged Ball

The Browns will have both Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson back in Week 7. The team has to do better than the 94 yards per game the team is averaging per game on the ground.

Make Cam Ward Uncomfortable

Despite the loss of Myles Garrett and defensive tackle Mason Graham being hurt, the Browns enter Week 7 second in the NFL in sacks. If Cleveland can heat Cam Ward up, good things will happen.

Avoid Unforced Errors

The Browns are tied for the most penalties in the AFC with 55 and are middle of the pack in giveaways. Mistakes are how teams lose to inferior opponents.
