Cleveland’s suffocating defense was all over the Packers, getting after Jordan Love plenty. Love was hit 10 times and suffered two sacks.

Grant Delpit also came down with a big interception, leading the Browns to keep pace with their opponent through most of the game.

One of the biggest deciding factors for the Browns was the play from rookie running back Quinshon Judkins. The emerging star put together a huge performance on the ground, securing 94 yards on the ground and one touchdown.

After the Packers went up 10-0, they kept the lead until the fourth quarter. The Browns secured a field goal to get their unanswered 13 points going.

Following the field goal, the Browns were able to pull down a huge interception on Love, leading to a score from Judkins. Judkins punched the ball in to tie things up at 10-10 heading into the final three minutes of the fourth quarter.

The Browns were able to stop the charging Packers and blocked a game-winning field goal from Brandon McManus. Moments later, Cleveland kicker Andre Symzt punched the ball in from 55 yards out, securing the win.

Cleveland possesses a very dangerous defense, and that was on full display, stifling the strong Packers offense through most of the game. If Judkins and the offense can start to score early and often, the Browns might be able to shock the NFL with their success in the coming weeks.

The Browns just beat one of the better teams in the NFC, and they are now heading into Week 4 to take on the Detroit Lions. If Cleveland can find a way to take down the Lions, they will have defeated two of the best NFC teams.
