5 bold predictions for Browns against Lions

3. Myles Garrett sacks Jared Goff three times to lead the Cleveland defense

Without question, the best player on the field Sunday will be Browns pass-rusher extraordinaire Myles Garrett. While the Browns defense was dog food going up against the Patriots offense last week, look for Garrett and company to be ultra-charged up to get after Jared Goff hellaciously. It will be one former No. 1 overall pick making another’s life a living hell during this Week 11 game.

Goff will crumble to the FirstEnergy Stadium turf like a sack of potatoes at least five times in this game. The man did not know where the sun goes, so he will have no earthly idea where the Cleveland pass rush will be coming from behind this porous Lions offensive line of his. Garrett will be the beneficiary here, as he will be the one bringing the Lions quarterback to the ground thrice.

There will be plays where Goff will move the chains against the Browns defense, but his inability to avoid the pass rush will be an ongoing bad narrative for the Lions all afternoon. It will be the driving force to keep the Browns in the game when their overall offensive firepower is not present. Without Garrett, the Browns would have the potential to be upset at home by the winless Lions.

Look for Garrett to have four total tackles, three sacks of Goff and a forced fumble in his big game.
