Overview
- With 14:03 left in the fourth quarter and Cleveland down 20-10, Jerry Jeudy dropped a deep sideline throw from Joe Flacco, leading to a punt that Detroit’s Kalif Raymond returned 65 yards for a touchdown.
- Jeudy publicly owned the mistake, saying he has to make that play, after opening with three catches for 48 yards before failing to connect on six subsequent targets.
- Flacco threw two interceptions, taking blame for the first, while the Lions turned three Cleveland turnovers into 17 points in the 34-10 defeat at Ford Field.
- Through four games Jeudy has 13 receptions for 182 yards, with Pro Football Focus crediting him with three earlier drops, as Cleveland’s offense struggles to generate explosive plays.
- Calls to replace Flacco have grown, including mentions of rookie Dillon Gabriel, yet Stefanski emphasized the team is not focused on a switch as the 1-3 Browns prepare for a London game against the Vikings.
