The 49ers are coming off their most impressive win of the season. Cowboys-Niners Week 5 was supposed to be one of the best games on the 2023 NFL schedule, but the 49ers had other plans. San Francisco dominated Dallas in the matchup 42-10.
Quarterback Brock Purdy put up some of the best numbers of his career in the rout, throwing four touchdown passes and posting a 144.4 passer rating. In the process, he improved to 10-0 as a starter in the regular season. With a win over the Browns, he would move into sole possession of second place for the best regular season record to start a career at 11-0. Ben Roethlisberger holds the top spot with 15 straight wins.
Purdy isn’t the only one closing in on history. Running back Christian McCaffrey has scored a touchdown in 14 straight games (including playoffs). That’s just three games shy of tying the all-time record set by Baltimore Colts Hall of Fame running back Lenny Moore (1963-1964).
The Browns (2-2) meanwhile, are coming off a very welcome bye week. After being dismantled by the Ravens in Week 4, Cleveland needed a week to regroup. It’s been pretty much feast or famine for the Browns this year, with three of their four games this season having been decided by 23 points. Fortunately, for the Dog Pound, they’ve been on the winning end for two of those.
On the downside, with Watson out, they are expected to start P.J. Walker under center. The 28-year-old Walker has made seven starts in his career, all with the Panthers. He’s 4-3 over those starts.
With Bitonio also missing today's game, it puts an unfortunate end to his consecutive game streak at 102 games.
There’s no question — for Cleveland to bounce back and get a win this week, their defense will have to dominate. The Browns rank fewest in yards allowed per game and they’re ranked third-fewest in fewest points allowed per game with 15 points per game allowed.
DraftKings had the 49ers as 7-point road favorites against the Browns when Watson’s status was uncertain but then the line jumped once he was officially ruled out. Currently, the 49ers are 9.5-point favorites on the road with an over-under of 36 points.
