PFF’s 10 highest-graded Browns’ offensive players vs. Texans

The magic that Joe Flacco brought to town for the Cleveland Browns ran out on Saturday after the wheels fell off the wagon in the second half. They were led by Harrison Bryant and Kareem Hunt in the first half, but could not keep it together for four quarters.

After a promising first half and a defensive stop to start the third quarter, Flacco threw pick-sixes on back-to-back drives. The team never recovered.

Again, the Texans made it difficult to run the ball, and the Browns became one-dimensional after the deficit grew. Give credit to DeMeco Ryans and his young defense as their plan to take Amari Cooper away worked well after he embarrassed them on Christmas Eve.

As the lead for Houston grew, the mental mistakes from the Browns’ offense started to pile up in a hurry. The make-shift tackle situation fell apart around Flacco, leading to the first pick-six as he tried to throw the ball away.

Here are the top 10 performances from the offense according to PFF as the Browns season ends in Houston.
